Love Sex Aur Dhoka 2 #PicksandPiques #JohnsonThomas

#PicksAndPiques #JohnsonThomas #internationalfilmfestivalcircuit #filmmoviedocumentaryOTTreviews Film: #LoveSexAurDhokha2 Rating: * * * Delving into complexities of hitech aided modern relationships with 3 interconnected stories segmented as Like, Share, Download, this film rouses insecurities and biases within the audience & could therefore cause a disconnect. Incisive and topical, the subject may not hold universal appeal though. Solid performances & apt camerawork lend mood but the narrative feels a little too erratic to hold you in thrall.

Kaam Chalu Hai #PicksAndPiques #JohnsonThomas

#PicksAndPiques #JohnsonThomas #internationalfilmfestivalcircuit #FilmMovieDocumentaryOTTReviews Film: #KaamChaluHai Rating: * 1/2 Based on a true story more suited to a documentary, this feature about Manoj Patil from Sangli filling up potholes in his area following his aspiring cricketer daughter’s accidental death due to a pothole, is rather disaffecting. The screenplay though sincere lacks dramatic intent, the treatment is sloppy and the performances fail to curry favor. Rajpal Yadav thinks he is in a comedy film and displays his usual ticks. The max this can be is a record of Manoj Patil’s single-handed proactive activism.

#PicksAndPiques #JohnsonThomas #FilmMovieDocumentaryOTTReviews #InternationalFilmFestivalCircuit Film: #Ameena Rating: * * Parallel narratives, a theatrical one representing 32 yr old story of teenage Ameena being sold-off to an 80 year old Arab Sheikh and the other a current reality of Meena the actress playing Ameena being gang-raped by 3 rich politically connected individuals, this film fails to curry favor even though the stories though done to death, were rich with possibilities. Poorly constructed, the treatment lacks bite with the direction losing focus & actors failing to bring legitimacy to their characters.
