Wait.. so Hell is a beach ? 


1st Season


Was a very upside down season, many times Sabrina Spellman (Kiernan Shipka) gets to my nerves because of the story often going 'shall she shift more towards her witch powers or be more mortal'. But the unique things they show at the Witch academy of unseen arts, all those adventures makes it a worth to sit through all episodes. However, its still one of my least liked series.





2nd Season

After having signed the book, Sabrina now has more interest in the Witch world to an extent she wants to participate in election of new Top Guy at the academy and point out why a girl can't be elected with her eyes set as far as been the next High Preistess, which ofcourse, Father Faustus Blackwood (Richard Coyle) doesn't like. The story goes further on what new tasks Dark Lord/Lucifer Morningstar (Luke Cook) has in mind and in what way Lilith/Miss Wardwell (Michelle Gomez) continues to help him in this regards.

In many ways I found this season far better, though it has many
problems too. What really works is Miss Wardwell character, she was irritating to watch in 1st season as we just saw her always plotting things against Sabrina. This time she gets bit human, showing feelings towards a mortal and trying to go against Dark Lord, all of which makes for a very good watch. Same goes for Zelda Spellman (Miranda Otto) who was too Blackwood/Dark Lord pro in 1st season, but here we see her more supportive towards Sabrina. I didn't like Harvey Kinkle (Ross Lynch) and Rosalind Walker (Jaz Sinclair) as couple, just seems something off or maybe thats how the writers want it to be. Also, Theo Putnam (Lachlan Watson) character gets very less character build then what I was expecting.

Then there's Prudence Night (Tati Gabrielle) who I feel takes too long to differentiate between right and wrong, I just hope she chooses better in 3rd season. The 'horrors of Doctor
Cerberus house' episode was very lovely change from the narrative, even if it was very clear from the start that its Miss Wardwell pretending to be tarot reader. The execution could had been better though. What disppointed me most was last episode, how they tackled Dark Lord with very little difficulty, even if its temporary yet I was wanting lot more struggle than a simple conjuring ritual. I liked the uncanny resemblance Dark Lord (in his heaven avatar) has with Nick, which makes the decision to let his body be used for conjuring a good decision. Despite some of the sillyness this series has still present, I would still rate this season better.


3rd Season

Sabrina goes on the quest to get her boyfriend Nick back from the Hell (a silly move if you ask me, atleast not the way she tries). Her mortal friends help her out and then there's the rebuilding of the 'Academy of Unseen Arts' to be done but with a hiccup that the witches are losing their energy, the
reason been they went againt the Dark Lord. This season was a complete downer for me mainly because of 2 characters, Nick and Caliban (Sam Corlett). Nick's character grows too annoying, I for
one never liked him from Season1 but it would had been nice had they not turned it to 'lets breakup' and rather get more involved in helping Sabrina fight the mess she has got in with the arrival of Pagans witches, Blackwood out on loose and Dark Lord escaping. And if thats not enough, a repeat of 'Top Guy' kind challenge happens, this time for the throne of Hell, between Caliban and Sabrina, my question is, was that needed at a time when there's already a lot to deal with on Earth. With Caliban playing a wannabe 'Prince of Hell' doesn't help.

Mary Wardwell (teacher) killing Aunt Zelda was a bit too much a direct step with no buildup, and also why would Aunt Hilda not take help from Sabrina or her family when she knew she has got a bad spell casted on her by the pagan witch. Also, what the fuck were those musical numbers used in some of the episodes. Blackwood who I dont like much, was only one character thats written much better and also well acted, and the ending scene suggests he may have a large role in next season.  The 'time travel' used was interesting but keeping two Sabrina, one at Earth and other at Hell, looked more like desperate writing to work on for next season, I don't think they would benefit much from it but will still wait to see what they do with it and how long they will let Lilith or Dark Lord not know about it.  There wasn't a single episode that I could say I enjoyed fully, it was always bits and pieces which is how a series season shouldn't be. Hoping Season4 turns it around, want Dark Lord play more active part and also I would like Quentin to be involved in big ways after having been fully omitted in this season. There's enough hints at Harvey-Sabrina reuniting at many times, so wonder if that would happen. And Prudence for once didn't play dumb, hope it continues that way. And I got no idea where they will take Nick next. Forgettable season, lets see how next one goes.

Still a average series, with the 2nd season been the best of all.


My Rating : 5.5/10

Mini Review : Malang and Love Aaj Kal (2020)

Malang
Directed by : Mohit Suri
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt9877170/

To live life from one high to another, Mazza chahiye, Sukoon nahi. 


Spoilers ahead .. 


Advait (Aditya Roy Kapoor) visits Goa and meets Sarah (Disha Patani), a free spirited girl and starts spending time together eventually falling in love. Everything is going fine until a incident happens leading to Advait in jail. He seeks revenge now against the people that wronged him and his girlfriend. Its a typical Mohit Suri film having bizarre dialogues, characters laughing exceedingly loudly and a routine awkward Shaad Randhawa cameo. The love story part of Advait-Sarah is cliched and so is the realization of how they want more than the hippie kind life they think suits them. Also the final twist would had been visible to those who had seen the trailer or remembered it well, which I guess I didnt, probably a mistake by makers to keep that gun scene of Disha in the trailer. Yet the tight screenplay, a strong enough 2nd half, excellent songs (please do listen 'Ho ja mast malang' original version, nescafe's 'Bol Hu' which features brilliant 8 yr old girl singing part of the song) and very good chemistry between Aditya and Disha makes for a gripping watch. Kind of masala films I like watching even though it has many visible flaws. And I really liked Kunal Khemu in the grey role too, he somehow appeals to me in his acting despite not getting much limelight. Good timepass movie, the kind you may watch many times on T.V to get entertained.

My Rating : 6/10



Love Aaj Kal (2020)
Directed by : Imtiaz Ali
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10023024/

Aana toh poori tarah aana, ya toh aana hi mat. 


Two different tales, one from 1990 involving Raghu (Kartik Aaryan) and Leena (Aarushi Sharma) and other from 2020 with Veer (Kartik Aaryan) and Zoe (Sara Ali Khan). The former is about parents not agreeing to marriage, while the latter has the lady giving importance to career over love/marriage. I felt after watching trailer that even if with all the resemblances to the same title film of Imtiaz in 2009, it would still be a good movie because afterall its Imtiaz and there's no shahrukh this time. But that didn't happen, infact I never felt bored before in a Imtiaz film like this (yea I liked Jhms). Just 2 positives from the film, one was the Raghu-Leena story where a twist is made and it doesn't end like the Rishi Kapoor one did in 2009 version.  And other positive ofcourse is the music by Pritam, such respite from the dullness of screenplay, Mehrama and Dooriyan were my favourites. Zoe-Veer story especially is irritating and infact at places childish way Zoe uses Randeep Hooda (elder Raghu) to implement it to her life. I can think of 2 scenes that I enjoyed most, one was the break-dance between Raghu and Leena, followed by the melodious track 'Shayad', and other was the silent scene when Raghu goes over to meet Leena after long time only to find she was pregnant. Performances wise, I liked Aarushi Sharma most, while Kartik Aaryan is likeable as Raghu in parts whereas as Veer his character never worked for me. Sara Ali Khan mostly shouts or overacts, and Randeep Hooda's cameo lacks the charm that Rishi had in older version of Love Aaj Kal. Usually there's lot to talk in a Imtiaz movie because there's so much detailing he goes through but I don't feel like talking anything about that here, just a movie I wish he never made.

My Rating : 3/10

Mini Review : Thappad and The Invisible Man

Thappad
Directed by : Anubhav Sinha
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10964430/

Just one slap.. par nahi maar sakta.


Amrita (Taapsee Pannu) who is a housewife seems to be pretty happy with her obvious looking robotic daily life routines until that moment at a house party when her husband Vikram (Pavail Gulati) slaps her in front of everyone for no reason. Anubhav Sinha builds narrative slowly towards the party, taking Imtiaz Ali kind route wanting us to see through Amrita for all the things she is avoiding right now with all possible hints for how Vikram treats her. And with parallel running stories of a lawyer who herself has a husband dominating her or the maid (amazing Geetika Vidya Ohlyan from 'Soni' fame) who happily tells stories to Amrita about having got beaten again by her husband. Anubhav Sinha is in great form yet again, and I would had thoroughly loved the film if not for Taapsee Pannu been the lead. For me a different actor would had done more justice to the character, and I don't mean to say Taapsee fails, its just that she never lifts up the character and then the fact that too much emphasis is laid on that 'one slap' doesnt help either as it just gives the sense of some agenda rather than keeping it to the reasons why Amrita shouldn't stay with Vikram anymore, like the scene post the slap when Vikram doesn't say sorry and rather continues to crib about his business, or the numerous comparisons one can make whenever he talks about his work while Amrita expresses through her eyes.

Pavail Gulati is really impressive in what is a well written character, grey and not making him look total villain yet he is at fault. Also enjoyed Dia Mirza's calm character and the response she gives when Vikram tells her to lie for his divorce case. Many other supporting actors like Ratna Pathak Shah, Kumud Mishra and Tanvi Azmi makes it for a gripping watch even if certain mentioned things makes me not fully enjoy movie. Love the scene between Amrita and Vikram at bench outside court, if only they had avoided that very manipulative aarti monologue scene of Amrita. Thappad is a good watch despite the flaws it has, not solid like Mulk or Article15 but its still worth a watch and if you don't find any problems with Tapsee act then more likely you would enjoy the film lot more than I did.

My Rating : 6/10


The Invisible Man
Directed by : Leigh Whannell
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1051906/

He said that wherever I went, he would find me, walk right up to me, and I wouldn't be able to see him. 


Cecilia Kass (Elisabeth Moss) runs away from her abusive boyfriend Adrian Griffin (Oliver Jackson-Cohen) and days later she learns about him committing suicide. Happy to get a chance to start life anew, but certain events lead her to believe that Adrian is alive and to make it worse has found a way to be invisible. I liked the idea, heard its used before too with different story but the execution or narrative lets it down. Was hooked for first 30 so mins but then there's many problems like we never see enough of Adrian before he goes invisible or scenes like the restaurant one where a single camera would reveal the truth yet it doesn't and then the climax that was pretty loose. Elisabeth Moss performance is good but its not a film I would see again. Opportunity missed!

My Rating : 4.5/10

Mini Review : Harriet, Pain & Glory and Ad Astra

Harriet
Directed by : Kasi Lemmons
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4648786/

God don't mean people to own people, Gideon! Our time is near! 



A motivational story about Harriet Tubman (Cynthia Erivo) that tells how she escapes from slavery after been denied freedom and then transforms into one of America's greatest heroes who had courage and was brave enough to freed hundreds of slaves including her parents. Yet another typical Oscar movie that gives insight to some history I didn't know about and a good performance by Cynthia to make it a decent one time watch. Screenplay was touch too slow, and not really gripping enough. I am not sure if that God angle was fictional or a real story, made for some interesting scenes though. Special mention to 'Stand Up' track sung by Cynthia, totally loved it.
My Rating : 5/10


Pain and Glory
Directed by : Pedro Almodovar
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8291806/

The nights that coincide several pains, those nights I believe in God and I pray to him. The days when I only suffer a type of pain I am an atheist. 


The story is based on a film director who reflects on his past remembering the memories as he is at decline of his career in present. I haven't seen a single movie of Pedro Almodovar, that could be a reason why the movie doesn't click for me. The lovely scene between Salvador Mallo (Antonio Banderas) and Federico Delgado (Leonardo Sbaraglia) was my only takeaway from the movie. Its just too slow and fails to bring out the emotions as it very much tries to. Maybe its not my kind of movie with the high ratings it got.
My Rating : 4/10


Ad Astra
Directed by : James Gray
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2935510/

So many times in my life I screwed up. I have talked when I should have listened, I have been harsh when I should have been tender. 


There's been a recent power surge that threatens humanity and it is believed to be coming from planet Neptune. Roy McBride (Brad Pitt) is given a mission to journey from Earth to Moon leading further to Mars and then Neptune. It all eventually links to 30 year old expedition where Roy's Dad, Clifford McBride (Tommy Lee Jones), who was leader of Lima Project had gone to Neptune to find extraterrestial life but never returned back. One of those sci-fi movies where 'leaving brains aside and enjoy' doesn't work either because it just feels too stupid what you are watching. To add to it, all the father-son drama of Roy and Clifford isn't one bit interesting enough. What I did enjoy was the visuals, the kind of fantasy life they showed on Moon, infact I just felt they would had been better to show more of that. Ad Astra is just a dull movie, with an unimpressive storyline and Brad Pitt's performance can't save it either.
My Rating : 3/10

Mini Review : The Irishman and Judy

The Irishman
Directed by : Martin Scorsese
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1302006/

You always charge a guy with a gun! With a knife, you run away. 


An Italian gangster based story that is narrated in flashback from Frank Sheeran's (Robert De Niro) point of view as he looks back at his mob career, his relations with Bufalino family and about his bonding with Jimmy Hoffa (Al Pacino). Frank is driving car going to a wedding with Russell Bufalino (Joe Pesci), and time and again their wives take breaks for smoking which is how I felt for alteast 2 hours of the movie, very stretching and long narrative testing you to stay interested. I personally had problems with the deaging aspect too, a technique I feel shouldn't be used again or maybe they have to work harder to make it perfect. Watching Joe Pesci come out of retirement and act this well (expectedly) was ofcourse the best highlight of the movie. Scorcese might test you with the length of movie but his direction is spot on with the usual freeze frames and camera angles used with nice dosage of humurous moments. Maybe a mini 8 episode series would had worked out better than a 3hr30 mins movie. My other problem was the narrator De Niro who felt somewhat if I could say not really into the character. Al Pacino on the other hand despite being hammy at some places was a lot fun to watch especially the scenes where he says he won't say sorry or shows anger for a person arriving 10 mins late for a meeting. The theme music is pretty good but The Irishman isn't the usual 'Oh this is fantastic' Scorsese movie. I am still going with a extra star just for Pesci!
My Rating : 6.5/10


Judy
Directed by : Rupert Goold
Imdb link -> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7549996/

I just want what everybody wants. I seem to have a harder time getting it. 


A sort of biopic that mainly focuses on the famous actress-singer Judy Garland's (Renee Zellweger) arrival in London in the winter of 1968 to perform a series of sold out concerts at the 'Talk of the Town' nightclub. I actually prefer biopics that don't do a childhood to their last achievement (good/bad) chronology, rather show us one particular phase of their life in detail. Yet its Renee Zellweger's oscar winning performance the only admirable aspect of the movie. I wanted some more flashbacks of her early life of being a celeb, rather there's just too much of 'drunk and I am so lost and behave badly with people' that it got tiring to sit through. Even her love life shown was pretty boring. I liked some songs but overall Judy is just an average movie.
My Rating : 5/10

Recap 2019 : Best, Disappointing and Worst of Hollywood



Very much like Hindi movies, saw only 23 English movies in the theatre last year. But made up for that with 21 Old/New movies on lappy (many from Netflix), and 11 Netflix series.

'The Invisible Guest', 'The Shining', 'Jaws' and '27 Days Later' were the movies that I really liked. While in series, I have just no words to express my love for 'Dark' but guess I will find a way to write on it in detail later this year when its 3rd season is out which I am *crossing my fingers* would be spectacular. Then there was '13 Reasons Why' which is a controversial series but I loved it, even the 3rd season despite one of the character been irritating and along with humanzing Bryce character, again detailed writeup later this year when its 4th season is out.

'Hannibal' was fantastic, diving deep into the psychological mindset of how he would work his way out and yet somehow you will root for him. Similar case with 'Joe' in 'You', a stalker series that works very well. 'Mindhunter2' was a disappointment though, many aspects that were left open in 1st season were totally ignored this time. 'Unbelievable' was another great series with the 2 lady detectives at their best helping vulnerable victims. 'Stranger Things' had a great two seasons and a messy 3rd one.

Also, enjoyed watching 'Sex Education', another teen series. Watched the much loved 'Friends' too, and found most of the seasons hilarious, having said that I didn't find it perfect... more on that later in seperate post.


Coming to the top movies now.. it was one of those rare years when many of the Oscar nominated movies made to my top10 list. But the totally neglected 'Avengers : Endgame' was handsdown my fav movie of 2019, infact more than a movie it was like a experience never felt before which only Marvel lovers can understand (sorry Scorsese, I still love your films and The Irishman in there is a proof). What more do you want when a time travel in the plot gives you Tony meeting his dad, Captain Rogers against Captain Rogers (I can do it all day), Natasha sacrificing life, Thor gone out of shape, Avengers assembling and Tony's sweet final video message for his daughter. Just a few of plenty other things that I loved about the movie.

The highly controversial 'Joker' was another of my fav movie, heard people/critics call it either average narration or a climax scene that glorifies violence and I totally disagreed to both of those aspects. Joaquin Phoenix's mindblowing performance, and a very good deep character study of 'Joker' kept me fully engaged.

Parasite makes to no.3 position, thanks to a 2nd watch, and same happened with 'Once Upon A Time In Hollywood'. The former tackles the 'rich vs poor class' dynamics in a very well done dark comedy manner by Bong Joon Ho while the latter shows a lovable friendship between a actor and his stunt double, before a major twist by Tarantino on the real manson incident.

Special mention to 'Klaus' which was for me the pick of the animation movies of 2019, simple story yet heartwarming to watch it. And 'Doctor Sleep' which was better than 'The Shining' for me, yes you read it right! Rebecca Ferguson in another delightful performance.

So, Here's my complete list -


Top10 Hollywood Movies of 2019 :

1. Avengers : Endgame
2. Joker
3. Parasite
4. Once Upon A Time In Hollywood
5. Doctor Sleep
6. Klaus
7. Jojo Rabbit
8. Marriage Story
9. Richard Jewell
10. The Irishman

Ford v Ferrari, John Wick 3, Toy Story 4, Uncut Gems and The Mule were some of my other liked movies that miss out.


Worst Hollywood Movies of 2019 : 

1. The LightHouse
2. Ad Astra
3. It : Chapter Two

It was really hard to watch  'The LightHouse' for me despite its high Imdb rating and praise critics gave. Ad Astra just kept meandering towards a unconvincing climax while It Chapter Two not only was a major letdown with all the expectations, it was so bad that the 1991 version where I felt adult part was mediocre suddenly feels lot good after having seen this version.

Most Disappointing Movies of 2019 : 

1. Glass
2. Captain Marvel
3. It : Chapter Two

Having enjoyed Unbreakable completely and Split for most parts, had high hopes with Glass and what hurts most is that such a good idea goes waste because of poor execution. While Captain Marvel even though is watchable, in comparison to other Marvel movies falls short of the quality and if I can say doesn't have the repeat value which say Antman or Doctor Strange got.

Recap 2019 : Best Hindi Albums and Top100 Songs



Apart from 2 outstanding albums namely GullyBoy and Kabir Singh, it was a very poor year in terms of music for Hindi Films Industry. Infact it was that bad that I have to list only top5 albums this time. Interestingly, both Gully Boy and Kabir Singh have mulitple composers, 'Apna Time Aayega' and 'Bekhayali' obvious standout songs.

Top5 Hindi Albums of 2019 :

1. Gully Boy
2. Kabir Singh
3. Bala
4. Luka Chuppi
5. War

Marjaavaan and Article 15 were other albums that had some good songs in them, but not enough to be worthy of best of the year.




Coming to the best songs of 2019, very much like I said about albums, even the case of albums with few good songs were a rarety, it was like listening to bad albums non-stop. Still I have come up with Top100 songs somehow.

Ranveer's rap, the excellent lyrics and the kind of adrenaline it sends down your body in the antara part of song was enough to beat Kabir Singh's 'Bekhayali' which is a angst romantic song (a genre that appeals a lot to me always) very well sung by Sachet Tandon. Mostly a year otherwise dominated by Arijit Singh and Jubin Nautiyal songs.

Good to see Shilpa Rao make a return after having missed her for some time, she along with Arijit Singh makes 'Ghunghroo' a very addictive track to listen to. 'Azadi' sadly was used poorly in the movie but as audio its still fun to listen which starts from that verse 'bhukhmari se azaadi...'.

Then there's 'Duniya' from Luka Chuppi that I accidentally came across through fm radio, and it appeared to be one of songs played often daily, eventually making me love the song though I still have problem with the female part. Meanwhile in a year of endless remakes (Tanishk Bagchi spoiling many classics), there was 'Bimar Dil' that worked a lot with very good beats and a well re-created classic of 'Chaalbaaz'.

Some special mentions to songs that may have gone un-noticed due to other popular tracks of that album, Uri's 'Beh chala' was one of them, fell in love with the song at first instance, a soft lighter take on life. Dhvani Bhanushali's 'Laila' is another track that was highly enjoyable, a lovely composition where lyrics talk about a fantasy future and she sings it quite well. While 'Yeh Jo Ho Raha Hai' from 'Ghost' made me feel like listening to a 90s melody, with very good vocals from Jyoti Tangri.

Here's my complete list ..

Top 100 Hindi Songs of 2019 :
