Train to Busan......................(8.5/10) watched in HD, damn what an amazing South Korean zombie film! A zombie horde infests a train! All the death scenes were so emotional as well! Must watch!

Peninsula.........................(7/10) watched in HD, four years after the events of first part, this one was quite a let down! This was more action focused as compared to zombies! Last car chase was superb!

Watched the Russian Movie Sputnik (2020). Underrated definitely. Can't remember the last time I saw a Russian movie but russians are getting close to hollywood quality. Do watch it if you like the Sci-fi & Alien genre

Anna.....................(8/10) watched in HD, well the lead girl was hot AF, a nice spy movie about a Russian double agent! The fight scenes were well choreographed and that Russian model made them a treat to watch!


Ava........................(6/10) watched in HD, another spy action movie this time starring Jessica Chastain as a high profile assassin but they focused too much on her personal life that it got boring afterwards! Mediocre at best!

Tenet: 8/10

Watched it at the cinema and I don't know if the audio mixing was bad or what, the dialogue audio was feeling quite suppressed (so much for Dolby Atmos).

Couldn't wrap my head around a lot of things, will be getting it on UHD Bluray to watch it again. All in all, quite a mindfuck like Inception for me, no wonder many called it Nolan's tried and tested formula and not veering away from it.

Tenet.......................(8.5/10) watched in Dolby Atmos at Reel Cinema, Dubai. Well a typical mind bending Christopher Nolan film however this one was not upto the mark of masterpieces like Inception or Interstellar! The concept was quite easy to grasp if you know a thing or two about time travel. My favourite part was when one team was going backward in time while the other going forward. A bit of Terminator vibes also but I can't say more as it will be a spoiler. Action was quite ok nothing over the top! Do watch this movie in theaters however be warned that some dialogues are quite muffled!

Mulan........................(7.5/10) watched in HD, well TBH i thought i'll get some nostalgia but that was not the case! I saw the animated Mulan way back in 1998, but this live action version had a serious tone though! My favourite dragon Mushu was missed. Action was also quite minimal and it was not at all grand as portrayed in trailers! Just a handful of soldiers fighting! Overall good for time pass! Could be enjoyed in theater as well but since I already watched Tenet the other night I passed on this one!

Scoob....................(8/10) watched in HD, ah my favourite cartoon character! Brought back a lot of memories specially when they used the same opening soundtrack. Overall a nice movie to watch! Surprised to see Muttley and Dick Dastardly from Wacky Races!

Fearless...................(0/10) watched in HD, another Netflix trashy movie! Gosh I should really stop watching Netflix movies now! Had to be the worst animated movie I've ever seen! I was just waiting for it to be over! The lead female character voice made me deaf!

saw tenet at cinestar imax on friday night premiere day !


119567108_10164027096405065_5993456653513627882_o.jpg

so the highly anticpated and delayed movie is finally here AND SAW IT IN IMAX yess.

well this one was a mindfuck of sorts haha. the first half let me tell you was very weird but after half time you get to know whats going on and one can predict how its going to be etc. a really interesting stuff from NOLAN once again and the music score and direction was AWESOME. the dialogues were a bit messy i think editing or something was wrong felt garbbled at times and some dialogues were in reverse or so even.

one again as most nolan movies should watch this a 2nd and third time to fully understand. i will def get a bluray for this one.

RATING 8/10

Tenet has been highly criticized for dialogue issues and Nolan stated he wanted to actually use dialogue as a sound effect rather than being...well dialogue, hence the case of weak/inaudible/incomprehensible issue to understand what is happening.

Spoiler: show
The reverse thing you mentioned is like a spoiler :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.
