Spiderman: No Way Home - 9/10 .

* Spoilers *

I wasn't a big fan of Andrew Garfield's Spiderman when it came out as I was biased towards Tobey Macguire's Spiderman but he was the hands down the best in all the scenes he appeared in (better than even Holland in those scenes). For the villain characters I was glad they retained most of the characteristics from the original films(especially loved Octavius).

*Spoilers*

Spiderman : average movie , if you are that hooting crowd you will love it, only strange uncle kept my focus and Garfield, the story was stupid and the whole climax storylines doesn't even make any sense 5.5/10

Pushpa : not good , story is bad , Fahad fazil should have been the villain and Allu Arjun carried the movie on his back , 6/10

C'mon c'mon - intersting and light hearted conversational piece statting Joaquin phoenix , nice and enjoyable 7/10

Aranayak : decent series , it just keep itself in mediocrity and never rises up 6/10

The whistleblower - starts off good but 3 episode in its just a stretch and boring 4.5/10

Matsya kaand : very enjoyable series , ravi kishan and Ravi Dubey plays the game of mouse and cat very well, entertaining and nice concept of conman , zoya is cute 7.5/10

Meenaxshi sundaram : ok whateevr for cheesy love track it's going , but could have more , could have been made for something more complex 5.5/10

Doctor : enjoyable , first half is better though, yogi babu is highlight , and satire , comedy is gold , enjoyable 7/10

Bob biswas : surprisingly good , interesting plot and keep the story interesting , ab Jr is decent , chitra needs more roles, the world of shooters built is nice , funt ime 7/10

Honsal rakh : what a bad movie from Diljit , such. A downfall ,no comedy for an hour i was able to watch ,cringe and unfunny 2/10

Qismat 2 : ammy Virk and sargun ❤️, old cliche but beautiful romance story , rare to find such films 7.5/10

Rashami rocket : a tv movie at best , production and everything make you question why you are watching this bad version, better watch a documentry on this issue 4/10

Sanak : vidyut jamwal action is okay , it's getting repetetive and not intersting enough with fre action sequences 5/10

Shiddhat : it's romantic movie trying to be an epic but fails miserably ,lot of problematic themes and common sense defying logic , radhika madan deserve better 3/10

Bell bottom : interesting concept but execution is mediocre , the whole climax is not upto the mark 5/10

Thailavi : decent biopic like always bad parts are hidden but i gueess the whole corruption scandal in second part , kangana is the only mainstream actress that's doing some other level , after i saw her work again in last year, ending is nice last 30 mins keep you hook 7/10

Chehre : amitabh and Emraan, and the idea is good but the screenplay is shoddy 3/10

Last night in soho : Thomas McKenzie , anya Taylor joy and Edgar wright in crime suspense drama , it interesting not usual Edgar wright stuff ,wasn't that enthralled by it but was still enjoyable 6.5/10

Recently saw this movie called Switchh (https://filmrary.com/movies/switchh/) - I (tried) watched only because of Vikrant Massey but could not finish it.

Seems nice but no time to watch maybe someone here will..

Encanto- underwhelming, not that I was expecting it to be very good in the first place. But I was still disappointed.

The songs were god awful and I almost stopped watching because of them.
Typical Disney mediocrity.

Bollywood:

Watched Antim: The Final Truth in theater during Thanksgiving break in November

Hollywood:

Watched Nightmare Alley in theater yesterday.

Bunty and Babli 2 (on Amazon Prime): was such a disappointment 1/5

Love Hard (on Netflix): love Nina but this movie was a one time watch because of some of the lessons it imparts. 2/5

watched series:

The Empire (on Hotstar): 5/5

Kota Factory Season 2 (on Netflix): 3/5

Arcane- actually great. Definitely worth the hype. Well written characters and gorgeous animation.

Spiderman: No Way Home

Best Spiderman live-action movie to date.

WandaVision

A quirky take using sitcoms. Takes a while to get interesting.

The Falcon and the Winter Soldier

It takes on a lot of issues and that's why I loved it. But the narrative does get messy.

Loki

Mischievous pre-reformation Loki is back, snark and all but twice as delightful.

What If...?

I found it weak and bland.

Hawkeye

Oh joy, we have a new Christmas classic. This is fun.
