Saw The Creator in the theatre and it was a mixed bag. The idea of humanity vs A.I. is really great and it was shown with utmost respect, but the execution falters in the third act. It is still very respectful of what the movie is trying to say and did so very meticulously. Other than the story The Creator does everything brilliantly. Worth a watch I'd say.
 
Watched Khufiya on Netflix.As someone who has read the book “Escape to Nowhere” which the movie is based on,I was massively disappointed with the movie.Ravindra Singh’s defection to CIA and the massive furor that followed is a story not covered much by our media.Unfortunately the movie Khufiya has taken too much creative liberty and has even combined stories from 2 books written by Amar Bhushan to create an unnecessary mess.while making the movie it seems that Vishal Bharadwaj ran out of time and has haphazardly tried to reach a conclusion.There is not much justification of what the characters are doing and their motive.
 
Watching Choona on Netflix.It started well but every passing episode it is getting difficult to bear.There is so much over elaboration that one may get the feeling that it has been done with the intention of reaching a certain number of episodes.Choona has some good comic moments but it’s slow and very boring after some episodes.
 
OMG 2 is a good attempt at choosing a really sensitive topic and talking about it with such conviction. Much of the runtime is the courtroom yet the screenplay remains entertaining and engaging but sometimes the logical arguments don't seem too logical and looks as if the film wants to prove something AT ANY COST. And opponent lawyer Yami wasn’t given as effective script as the counterpart. But the legacy of omg remains intact. Worth a watch.
 
Watched "Bambai meri jaan" which for me is another attempt to glorify the gangster culture of Mumbai.A supremely talented actor like Kay Kay Menon has been reduced to sidekick with his performance lacking any of his usual power.Moreover,it is impossible to watch the series with swear words used in every dialogue.
 
Talking about something impossible to watch Scam 2003. It's starts well. Gets boring inbetween. Pacing is bizarre. It's either too fast than becomes boringly slow inbetween. Thanks to the mid-season ending. I will still look forward to future episodes.

I felt it was very poor compared to the Scam 1992 even though the lead actor has tried his best to do justice to his role.
