Wogma rating: Watch, but no rush
Quick review: A sports drama that is hardly the best sports film around yet goes beyond. A social drama that aims to get you involved in the topic, not deeply educated about it. Yet, together makes for a film worth your time and energy. (Available on Zee5)
Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: Long, convoluted, over-performed. Pushes you to laugh at it. (Available on Amazon Prime Video)
Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: I’d have called myself a whiny, cynical old woman if I found only the depiction of romance problematic. Glamourising creepy men who do "anything" to be loved by someone they love is worrisome. It's difficult to look beyond at other potentially redeeming factors.

Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: Borderline cute and barely horrifying, this supposed horror film is just about watchable. (Available on Disney-Hotstar)
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: Might have been an interesting story, were the narration not marred by overt nationalism. We will never know. (Available on Amazon Prime Video)
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: A movie that glamourises war while celebrating bravery and valour. Fortunately focuses on fervour more than jingoism. It isn’t even pretending to be detailed, so you can guess what you don’t know. (Available on Amazon Prime Video)
Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: The story is captivating. The movie though is a hotch-potch of situations strung together messily. The war might be better served if we educated ourselves about it rather than watched this botch-up of a film.

This piece is fanboy material by design - it is for the most part about the influence of his - the Joharian school of cinema - on me, as someone who grew up in the late nineties as also on our popular mainstream culture - something that our man isn't credited for often and not nearly enough with.
