Famous in Love (2017–2018)
4/10
Below Average
28 January 2019
The first few episodes really excites the audience with what it could offer. Sadly, it has nothing. boring same old plots and nothing new. Terrible cast. (Bella Thorne is gorgeous though). I stuck through all the episodes just because i started it. Cancellation was the right move because there is no more story to tell.

The story happens in the studios where movies are made. So it was curious to see and know more about all the stuff that happens in the background but it turned out to be just what we have seen in all behind the scenes of movies and series.

The Royals (2015–2018)
6/10
Guilty Pleasure
28 January 2019
Fictionalized soapy drama. Its funny and interesting to watch what a modern and scandalous royal family would be. Sometimes the plot has ulterior motives and you really can't judge a character if they are good or bad. Acting could have been better at few places. It's a shame that it didn't live to see 5th season.

Udta Punjab (2016)
9/10
Entertainment + social message
26 January 2019
First of all, great acting by all the lead actors. Movie is made crafty. Shows the distress of drug addicted population. The effect it has on the family, the society and the state as a whole. Really scary if you put yourself in their shoes. A very necessary social message. Great work. A must watch one.

Legacies (2018–2022)

Consolation for the vampire diaries and the originals fans
25 January 2019
Most spin off shows are never as good as their predecessors. This one tries to do justice. The audience of the previous shows grew up and are little old for this show. But for the current young adults, it's good. All the monsters introduced are new. It doesn't revolve only around vampires, witches and werewolves. Keeps us wanting to see some old faces but disappointed. Maybe a little bit more effort on acting by the cast would do some good for the show.

Kaala (2018)
9/10
A Classic
25 January 2019
Director Ranjith slays this one. A commercial film packed with fictionalised documentary, delivered by savvy Rajinikanth. Not unrealistic when it comes to the cast (other than Sarina). Eswari Rao, who plays the character Selvi steals the screen. Emotional, Informative and action packed story on the Dharavi slums. Great work by the team. Keeps you glued to the seat.

Hilarious adventure
25 January 2019
Wow! This one can remind you of the silly childhood sci-fi fantasies. I am loving this show. watch just the first episode and it will leave you wanting more for fun. Do not expect some great plot twists or character depths or something. Its funny and light-weighted.

Manifest (2018–2023)
7/10
Interesting
24 January 2019
Good mix of drama, mystery and fiction. The faces are new at first but they grow on you. Suits for all types of audience I guess. A good one! The mystery is really interesting and it feels like there is more story to tell for this one.

Vikings (2013–2020)
9/10
Way too UNDERRATTED
24 January 2019
Why are people not talking about this series like the way they talk about game of thrones? I am not comparing but I love both these shows. They both fit in the same genre. This one also has great plot, battle scenes and of course violence. Like they said, its a grownup version of game of thrones. Also good to know about how vikings lived and they created it perfectly that it transports the audience to the viking era. Glad to see it getting noticed a little nowadays.

Fam (2019)
3/10
A decade too late
24 January 2019
I wanted to watch this because I am a fan of Nina Dobrev. But it is bad. The jokes are good but nothing we haven't heard before. I think the era of sit-coms with audience laughs is over and this one just basically premiered at the end of the era. I think Nina would be great for drama, not comedy. Sorry Nina!! The only character who I feel trying to keep this afloat is Shannon, the little sister. This show belongs to the 90s. Lets give it a few more episodes.

Roswell, New Mexico (2019–2022)
6/10
CW show!!! what not to love??
24 January 2019
This show is the next one entering the CW hall of fame along with the vampire diaries, the originals, pretty little liars. (the cast is also from those shows). If you love the CW shows, maybe you will like this one. I have watched the three episodes aired and so far, not so bad. Give it a chance and you will not hate it. Don't expect aliens with CG stuff, it is basically a human drama with a teeny bit of sci-fi.

This Is Us (2016–2022)
10/10
Will teach you LOVE
23 January 2019
Every episode teaches you something. The dialogues are so heartwarming that I bet you will become a better human being than you are now. The relationship of the family seems like any normal family but the core of this is something amazing. This will teach you how to love. Watch this patiently and you will fall in love with this show and your own life.

Every character teaches you something and also shows the everyday struggles of different types of people. Shows you their deepest emotions and you can certainly relate your life with some of the characters. It not only shows all the above said, it tries to give a solution for that. Tries to give you the recipe for a contented, happy life you can life through all your problems and facing them head on.

Sex Education (2019–2023)
8/10
Watch It
23 January 2019
Yes there are some wide inaccuracies. Do not bother about it. Do you wish to spend a good time watching a funny tv series? yeah! go for it. Its all about teen sexual curiosities and problems. Also has some emotional drama too. Its the complete package. Despite being an adult, I didnt have the knowledge about some stuff they do in the series that links to the title. No age category for this one. Everyone can enjoy this one.Have Fun!!

Killing Eve (2018–2022)
7/10
Looks new yet feels old
22 January 2019
A very good cat - mouse ( assassin - govt agent) chase with kinks and good acting. What's not to love it right. It's kind of like a female version of Jason Bourne movies with an intriguing antagonist, although Eve is definitely not Jason Bourne of this story. Too serious for a comedy drama and too careless for a thriller drama.

Wild Child (2008)
7/10
Perfect for female teens
21 January 2019
Do you love boarding school drama? Go watch it. Emma Roberts is beautiful as ever. Kind of like room com teen version of Harry Potter except for the magic of course. It has friendship loyalty all that stuff. It is funny too. I think boys will hate this one 😉

Boring
20 January 2019
There are good reviews for this movie but I found it very boring. Some parts of it are realistic and some are unrealistic. So it's ruined the essense. The character of the male lead is totally a jerk. If u are in search of some movie to kill your time or to watch something leisurely, then u can opt for this. If u really want to watch a good movie to quench your thirst for entertainment, don't go for this

A must watch one
16 January 2019
There are certain movies that actually make you wonder about your life and inspire you be positive through the mundane and rough patches of life. This certainly is one. You are never too old to experience something new. You are never too old to learn some valuable lessons about life. Watch it for the cast. Absolutely amazing group of people. Shows the real India and how it can be a crammed experience for foreigners but can be wonderful if you actually look at the beauty it has hidden in plain sight.

Time Freak (2018)
3/10
Don't get excited by the title
16 January 2019
Yes, it is a time travel movie. But it's terrible. As far as the acting is concerned, Asa butterfied does a good job on his character. Though I didn't expect such a poor performance from Sophie Turner. Poor casting. The cast looks too young for the part they play. Overall the movie seems like it was shot by a group of college kids from their college dorm.

Not so great. Pass it.
1 July 2017
The film's protagonists are best friends from childhood, but it is portrayed very bad. The way that it is shown is, they behave like new friends who happen to have more fun with each others company. The dialogues are sometimes too fast to understand. The only thing I felt new about this film is, the teenage drama happens in a big city where the kids live in an apartment and not in suburbs. So, we get to know how life is in city for kids. Wait; do we really get to know that? I doubt it. I felt it was a high school story thrust on college kids.

Life (I) (2017)
5/10
Could have been better
28 June 2017
When I decided to watch this movie, I had high expectations as it is a space related movie. Unfortunately, I was disappointed. The movie pace keeps us on edge though, making us to continue watching. People with minimal scientific knowledge can point out some blunders. During a scene, the crew seems to find a solution for a problem, but I was like, why didn't they think of that before? they are supposed to be astronauts. Even I knew that option was available. Sometimes it was very much predictable. The plot and screenplay could have been better.

LOL (2012)
4/10
Colorful but not so good
27 June 2017
If you are a fan of teenage drama and like Miley Cyrus, this is your movie. If not, then it is a moderate one. The best part of the movie is the mother-daughter relationship. It could really inspire to develop an honest bonding with your family. The movie has a lot of cute faces and shows how beautiful Chicago is. Again, a regular high school drama.

The First Time (I) (2012)
7/10
A bit deeper than a regular teenage drama
26 June 2017
Warning: Spoilers
I thought this movie would be another typical teenage drama, but surprisingly it is a bit more than that. In a world where being a couple requires compatibility, having something or everything common, these two kids find love in the old mannered way. It surprises them and they are not sure what to make of it.It also shows how awkward having sex for the first time could be. It has a beautiful cast and could put a smile on your faces at the end.
