Wogma rating: Watch for sure, preferably in theatre
Quick review: The tone is one of frustration, not preachiness. It is not, "We know better than you." It is, "How have we collectively reached here?" This philosophical take alone makes Assi a meaningful experience. And there's a lot more.

Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: Constantly tries too hard to be cool, clever, and pulpy making the 3-hour run tiresome.
Wogma rating: Watch but no rush
Quick review: An intense issue. A gripping telling. A tad dramatized. A slump in the climax. But a worthy watch, even if on OTT.
Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: What you expect is what you get in Border 2. Border (1) again. The warfare seems unending, just like the film. The same laboured lines with forced energy and brief, cursory, and measured attempts at balance.

Wogma rating: Watch but no rush
Quick review: A Hindi war film that points to the futility of war and doesn’t spend all its time glamorising it is a win, even if this one isn’t among the best war films out there.
Streaming partner: Amazon Prime
Wogma rating: Add to that never-watched 'To Watch' list
Quick review: Carries a disconcerting undercurrent of provocation, propaganda and victimhood, even though it is a well-made film that engages through its 3.5-hour-long runtime.

Wogma rating: Watch but no rush
Quick review: An unexpectedly mature take on a difficult dilemma faced by parents. It'd have been nice, though, if the makers were as secure about their story as its protagonist is about himself. Yes, the silly humour is arguably unnecessary.
