Marco can be watched fully by North Korean soldiers only. We can't completely see it. I left it in the middle.
Malayalam movies since last 5 years are so have become my go to watch list because they are catering to audiences who like thrillers, comedies, detective story of movies. Malayalam movies lately have become a feast to pan India audiences. Thriller or detective movies are never made in Tollywood.
Agent Sai Srinivasa Athreya isn't exactly a thriller, but it's a nice detective movie I had fun watching.

These days movies are all about pan india, collections, overseas market etc...

I was talking about those two specific violent scenes in spoiler tags.
Recently also saw the Brutalist in theatres, though I missed out on IMAX
I had read that the runtime is a bit too much with unnecessary scenes but honestly felt the pacing to be much better than a lot of films.
Adrien Brody's acting and the visuals on the other hand, too good to pass on.
Watched a Tamil movie BLACK (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt33298502/)
It's heavily inspired from Coherence, but not a real copy though.
A decent watch. would rate 6/10.

True story of a neo Nazi that reforms hinself.
6/10
Can't hold a candle to an earlier film of the same genre and also true story.
8/10
Better story, better acting, Ed Norton is untouchable here. Gut wrenching
Maybe it's not a fair comparison but I thought I'd mention it

If you loved the first movie, so here’s a second movie that’s a lot like the first movie.
Ponman is an edge-of-the-seat thriller that delivers on multiple fronts-storytelling, character depth, and technical brilliance.
Watched Ponman and Batla House over the weekend.
Ponman is a good thriller. Deals with themes of some social practices in parts of Kerala, not otherwise shown frequently. Good pacing and nothing irrelevant.
Batla House has a good story. But performances were not great and pacing was off too. The dramatisation of the real events is not the best. A decent watch nevertheless.
Rewatched Sivaji over the last week. At this point in time, I find that the excesses of Shanker, far too excessive. Better than most mass commercial movies of recent times, but it's a mass movie at the end of the day.

Electric State : 2/10
With crap like these, I am not longer worried about reviving Marvel. The bros will ensure that it's buried deep and remains there. Happy to be proven wrong.
It's kinda sad to see these were the same guys, who gave us The Winter Soldier, over 10 years back. They should hang up their boots and start philanthropy. The world will thank them.

Companion - 7/10 - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt26584495/
A good thriller/slasher movie with good screenplay and story. The movie starts slowly and moves fast pace after initial 20 minutes. Nothing new as we would have seen many movies like this but this one is little different in the approach towards writing and screenplay with some dark comedy spilled over. Also if you would like to watch do not watch the trailer as you will know what to expect.

- Ayla: The Daughter of War: An absolutely heartwarming and deeply emotional film. The bond between Süleyman and Ayla felt genuine and left a lasting impression, I cried at the end. A solid movie great acting by a kid, 9/10
- Hacksaw Ridge: A solid movie with powerful acting and an inspiring true story. The war sequences were intense, a strong 7/10.
- Unbroken 2014: An incredible story of resilience and survival. I appreciated the grit and determination shown, though it didn’t have eventful ending. I'd say it’s a 7.5/10.

The Ipcress File (1965) -8/10
Michael Caine as a British secret spy who thwarts the brainwashing of British Scientists amid the bureaucracy of his organisation is indeed compelling and thrilling to watch.
Syriana (2005) -8/10
It's a gripping smart action thriller about oil industry that grips your mind and nerves with such an intensity which does not let go until the end.
Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (2011) -8/10
Its a thriller where a British Spy from MI6 is working for USSR and Gary Oldman has to find out who it is.
Army of Shadows (1969) -7/10
It's about day to day clandestine activities of French resistance during nazi occupation where a French national who turns out to be the traitor who reports to Gestapo about resistance members and is brought to justice.
Spione or Spies (1928) -7/10
It's a German silent espionage action thriller about Soviet espionage activity that takes place in London. This movie is used as a standard for all other espionage spy movies that came later.

Companion (2025) - 7/10
Good thriller with great performances from both Sophie Thatcher & Jack Quaid. This is actually the 2nd movie I have watched with Sophie Thatcher, the other one being Heretic (2025) with Hugh Grant, and in both she has been a treat to watch.
Azaad (2025) - 4/10
A movie that brought back memories of Lagaan (2001) but fell way, way short of the what Lagaan was. It's pretty obvious that this flick was made to bring Raveena Tandon's daughter Rasha and Ajay Devgn's nephew Aman to the stage but both fail to cause any emotional impact through their acting. A lost opportunity.
