Wogma rating: Watch but no rush
Quick review: Like any ol' new-age action film. Only with women, so that's fun. The action is slick. The lost-and-found story is right out of '80s Hindi films. Plus, of course, the seemingly inevitable dose of 2010s-20s patriotism.
Wogma rating: Don't bother
Quick review: It's cute! Not the film. No. It's cute that they felt the need to offer logic. Even cuter that there is an attempt at metaphors. Why bother? When the intent is to evade tax by making the most terrible film possible ?😉

Wogma rating: Watch some day, maayyybe…
Quick review: Philosophy and non-trivial conversations are the ends. A love triangle and non-funny jokes are the means. Hardly a shocker that the ends don't justify the time and energy spent on the means, despite some good performances and better ambience. Streaming Platform: Netflix
Wogma rating: Watch but no rush
Quick review: At 2.5 hours, you're rooting for a 95-year-old to get answers so he can die in peace. And then you witness one of the most brilliantly done end credit scenes. I call that a movie well-made even if it doesn't engage through its runtime.
Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: Just because we have seen worse, doesn’t make a borderline slapstick attempt at rom-com entertaining. Yes, despite its whacky, hilarious premise.
Wogma rating: Don't bother
Quick review: In which Akshay Kumar competes with himself to yell his lines louder than he did in the previous scene. Yes, that's the only takeaway.
Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: What I disliked in Dhurandhar, I disliked even more in this one. None of what I liked was carried forward here. And the propaganda that was subtle and annoying, is now blatant and amusing.
