@venkatrs6 Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts.
Commented on GEETA1963's review
I read your review for the second time today and am thankful to you for the caveat rendered through it. I am both a mystery fan and a Nawazuddin Siddiqui fan but will give it a miss. Your one star rating says it all.
I am too late on this review and the series itself was too late after its very first episode was uploaded. I was so fascinated to watch the whole series that I took subscription of Sony Liv only to wait for many months for watching the subsequent (the second one to the sixth one) episodes. Your revi read more...
@sunkiechanborty Hearty thanks for the detailed and heart-warming comment.
Hearty thanks for the objective review. I was planning to watch it. However am yet to do so. Making a genuine war movie close to reality is not easy for the Bollywood filmmakers. That's why such authentic and admirable movies (just a handful to remember from the bygone era) do not come now.
Excellent review from your pen which fully justifies the five star rating given by you to this extraordinary movie.
That's quite an objective as well as fascinating review. I haven't read any Tommy and Tuppence venture penned by Dame Christie. Now I am tempted to read this one. Hearty thanks for sharing your take and introducing us to the world of Tommy and Tuppence.
I have not read any book featuring Tommy and Tuppence. Will try to catch up one. You have assessed Postern of Fate with objectivity though bias could have crept in (yourself being a Christie fan). A sizable no. of Christie books demand patience from the reader in the first 50-100 pages of the book t read more...
I have seen this web-series and I appreciate your take on the same as well as the acting prowess of Gulshan Devaiah. Besides, you have read between the lines and come up with a thought which is quite logical (and original too). Hearty thanks and compliments.
You have praised the book a lot and your narration speaks volumes of the knowledge and efforts of the learned author. Thanks for familiarizing us with the book. Is it a work of fiction or something rendering knowledge (without any element of fiction) ?
I can understand and feel your disillusionment. Am yet to watch this movie. However after reading your review, I will tone down my expectations from the same. Thanks for the objective review and the caveat to the prospective viewers (and the admirers of Vishal Bhardwaj).
There is no murder mystery in the Drishyam story. However if Jaane Jaan contains some mystery regarding the murder, it should be quite interesting for the mystery lovers.
The word 'mystery' itself has been derived from the word 'mist' and a mystery is more enjoyable in a misty milieu. Your four star rating is motivating me to watch it as soon as possible. The story of Drishyam (Part I) is also based on The Devotion of Suspect X. Hence it will be curio read more...
