Guys!!!! If you haven't watched It's what's Inside, Go watch it now! 

 

Such a well made thriller with fun very tight script and keeps you interested throughout. Only takes first 20 mins to setup and then keeps getting better and better! Very well acted and super execution! 

 

Watch it in one go and without knowing much, keep each characters names in your mind and you are in for an enjoyable ride! 

Thank you man for such a great recommendation. Really, everyone should watch this movie. Wow, its just absolute fun. 

 

One advice, dont watch this when high or drunk. You will end up in a rabit hole.

WTF dude, I watched the movie and all it gave me was a headache ! The concept is novel, but that’s about it.  Looked like someone shot the whole movie while he was high or something ! Towards the end I stopped even trying to understand who was who - total confusion.  All in all a highly confusing and trippy movie.  But,  enjoyable ? not really.

I followed his advice, kept all character names in my mind from the very beginning. Yes, its kind of important, otherwise you cant enjoy the movie to the fullest.

If you watch, like Felix mentioned above, just keep a note on the characters and keep updating it (you’ll know when to update once you watch the movie), otherwise towards the end you would be completely lost.  It’s very trippy/shot in a very unusual way too, mind you.

 

Anyway, I watched this French movie called ‘lost bullet 2’ on Netflix.  I found it to be better than the sequel.  Action sequences are very well choreographed.  The races towards the end are breathtaking.  I saw a new sequel is released on Netflix as well.  Will watch in sometime to complete the trilogy !

It is better to keep notes but I don't think its necessary, its not a serious movie. Even with confusion, it was pretty enjoyable for me. Especially towards the end! Fun pop corn flick! 

 

@Big Boss ain't for you :P

Watched ‘the diplomat’ on Netflix.  A surprisingly well made movie from Bollywood after a long time.  John Abraham has given one of his finest, most restrained performances.  And to know that this was based on a real-life incident, makes it all the more better !
 

As a side note, maybe this OTT thing is really harming the box office, especially for Indian movies. I think most of the people these days aren’t bothered to watch these types of non-spectacle movies in theatres, thinking theycan always catch up on OTT within a few weeks of release !

I think the impact is more pronounced for our desi movies as the market is very limited and access to capital is not as easy.  I’m not sure if it’s already the case but I think in future producers in India will first secure a OTT deal and then go to theatres.  Which means the movies will be made with much lower budgets and mostly catering to requirements of the OTT platform!

Problem is that movies now release on OTT in 4 weeks time. Additionally, there is so much OTT exclusive content as well. Hence, people just don't care about going to theaters as much anymore. We have hit/super hit movies still, but the number of them have reduced. We hardly get many average/above average grossers now. People have largely stopped going to movie halls just for the sake of watching movies there now like it used to be before.

I think the exorbitant cost of the multiplex theatres at least in cities like Bangalore doesn’t help either. For a family of four, I have seen that it costs almost like ₹2000-₹3000 for a movie outing in a shopping mall if you include snacks as well. 


Also, I think people have become much more smarter thanks to exposure to OTT.  I think Aamir’s next movie (remake of champions) might meet the same fate as his previous remake of Forrest Gump!

The fact that you need to deal with uncivic assholes in movie theatres doesnt help either

I think it is a 6-8 week window. Theatrical experience is subjective, some want big screen experience irrespective of content, others want the content to be amplified through the big screen.

 

Mission Impossible, Avengers, KGF all fall into the latter.

 

People are more than happy to wait for other movies considering the premium Netflix charges.

I swear the more premium the theatre, the more assholes you see who want to either talk among themselves or talk on phone thinking it's their drawing room.
