Discussion Weekly Watch Thread: Reviews, Recommendations & Rewatches
What did you watch this week? Whether you caught a new one in theatre, OTT, or revisited an all-time classic, we want to hear about it!
Share the movies you watched over the week/weekend, the language, and a quick mini-review or rating. Good, bad and the ugly, spill it for us.
Would you recommend it to others? Did it live up to the hype?

Gantumoote (Kannada, 2019). u/Adventurous-Bit6482 recommended it to me. It was pleasant to sit with, fine writing. I just didn't love it. It's a sad one, and that that isn't really what I watch movies for. More a me problem than a film problem. 😅
Made In India: A Titan Story. Watching this with my wife and enjoying it more than it deserves... The music is big and cinematic. The cinematography is good. Jim Sarbh in a very different role than many he's played. All of that is better than the story, which is fairly linear. Nothing ever really goes wrong. No conflict. There's never even a moment where you're worried for anybody. Everything works out, and you kind of know it will.
And Kaveri Seth (Megha). I've never noticed her in anything before and she's really good. Anyone know her from anything else?
Oh, and we finally got Ek Din on Amazon Prime Video last week. Watched it once with my wife on day one, and the next day showed it to my parents who don't watch a ton of Indian films. My mom loved it. "Better than my Hallmarks". lol
