Shaitaan

The story revolves around a family who lets this stranger into their farmhouse, and things get super creepy when he starts controlling their daughter. It's like every command he gives, she just can't say no.

The atmosphere is the real winner here. They've done an amazing job without any CGI, and it all hinges on the antagonist's mind games. It's not your typical horror movie with cheap jump scares; it's more about that unsettling feeling that stays with you.

Now, the performances are top-notch. R. Madhavan as the sinister stranger is just outstanding, and Ajay Devgn nails it as the desperate father.

The cinematography is dope, really adds to the dread, and the music by Amit Trivedi? Spot on. But yeah, the narrative does stumble at times, and the whole supernatural vs. science debate feels a bit cliché.

Overall, it's a decent watch if you're into psychological thrillers with a dash of horror. Just don't expect too many surprises.

Haunted Mansion

It's got some cool moments and the sets are pretty wild—definitely gives off those theme park vibes. Rosario Dawson and LaKeith Stanfield are in it, but honestly, they could've done more with the cast.

The jokes are hit or miss, and the romance part? Kinda meh. It's fun for a one-time watch if you're into a bit of comedy with your spooks, but don't expect it to stick with you for long.

Ride On

The film intertwines themes of legacy, family, and the changing tides of the film industry. While it showcases Chan's signature action sequences, the narrative also carries an emotional weight, reflecting on an artist's twilight years.

Despite its ambition, the film struggles to balance its sentimental undertones with the comedic elements, resulting in a viewing experience that may resonate with long-time fans but could leave others wanting more clarity in its storytelling.

Devilman Crybaby

Devilman Crybaby, Netflix's anime adaptation of Go Nagai's manga, is a wild ride through violence, gore, and philosophical exploration. While praised for its animation, unique visual style, and tackling of mature themes like religion and identity, it's equally criticized for its graphic content, sometimes gratuitous violence, and pacing issues.

If you're looking for something intense, thought-provoking, and visually distinct, Devilman Crybaby might be your jam. But be prepared for its brutal content and uneven execution. It's definitely not for everyone, but for those who can stomach it, it offers a unique and unforgettable experience.

The Patient

The Patient is a psychological thriller that explores the relationship between a therapist (Steve Carell) and his captive patient (Domhnall Gleeson), who is a serial killer. The show is intriguing and intense, but also frustrating and repetitive. The performances of the two leads are excellent, but the plot does not offer much surprise or variation.

The show is more interested in the themes of empathy, guilt, and responsibility than in the suspense or action. The Patient is a show that will appeal to fans of character-driven dramas, but may disappoint those who expect more twists and thrills.

Dunki

Dunki is a comedy-drama directed by Rajkumar Hirani and starring Shah Rukh Khan as a soldier who helps a group of friends from Punjab to illegally immigrate to England. The film has its moments of humour, emotion, and satire, but also suffers from a predictable plot, a simplistic view of the immigration issue, and a lengthy runtime.

The performances are decent, especially by Khan and Taapsee Pannu, who play the romantic leads. Dunki is a well-intentioned film that tries to deliver a message of hope and humanity, but falls short of being a memorable or impactful one.

Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire

Salaar Ceasefire is an action-packed saga of friendship, betrayal, and revenge, starring Prabhas and Prithviraj in the lead roles. The movie boasts of stunning visuals, high-octane stunts, and a powerful background score. However, the movie also suffers from a convoluted plot, excessive violence, and a dragging second half.

The performances of the lead actors are commendable, but the female characters are underdeveloped and sidelined. Salaar Ceasefire is a treat for the fans of Prabhas and Prashanth Neel, but it might not appeal to everyone. It is a typical masala entertainer that delivers what it promises, but nothing more.

How to Get Rich

How to Get Rich is a boring and superficial series that tries to pass off generic and obvious advice as some kind of financial wisdom. The host, Ramit Sethi, is a self-proclaimed money guru who acts like he knows everything about personal finance, but he mostly just tells people to cut down on their expenses, pay off their debts, and invest in index funds. Nothing new or groundbreaking here.

The show ignores the struggles of the working-class and the poor, who face systemic and structural barriers to achieving financial security. The show is tone-deaf and insensitive to the realities of most people, who are not interested in living their "rich life", but just want to survive and thrive in a harsh and unequal world. How to Get Rich is a waste of time and a poor excuse for entertainment.
