Dabangg 3

A sequel, which involves the back story of Chulbul Pandey and his becoming Dabangg 3, promises to offer entertainment like can be expected from a Salman Khan movie. Set in Madhya Pradesh, the story also reprises the role of Sonakshi Sinha and Arbaaz Khan. Those who have joined the Dabangg franchise now, are Vinod Khanna’s brother Parmod Khanna (to play the role of father), Saiee Manjrekar, Kiccha Sudeep and Prabhu Deva (director).

The duo worked

I feel the magic of Prabhu Deva combined with bhai’s blockbuster screen presence worked for me. This director-actor duo gelled well and produced something which is out and out the best one yet from all the three films.

Perfect villain

The guy who played the villain, though I do not know his name (Kichcha Sudeep), is worth a mention. The climax fight is epic and I feel I would look forward to watching the villain as much as I love to watch Salman on the big screen.

Lengthy affair

I feel that the movie was stretched way too long and while the action scenes were alright, the story could have been more happening.

Salman all the way

I feel his dialogue was epic, Hum class or mass dono ke liye kaam karte hain and I feel that applies to him as well. For me, it worked better than Bharat.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker

American epic space-opera film produced, co-written, and directed by J. J. Abrams, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker stars Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Matt Smith, Keri Russell, John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac and Ian McDiarmid. It is the third instalment of the Star Wars sequel trilogy, following The Force Awakens (2015) and The Last Jedi (2017), and the final episode of the nine-part Skywalker Saga.

A good ending

I feel, if not great, at least the makers have tried to give a good ending to the trilogy. I commend their effort for whenever there is more hype you are bound to get disappointed. I feel the same thing happened with Game of Thrones.

It’s a privilege

There was too much information in the first part and for any person it would be tough to understand so much so fast while watching the movie. For a person who has been following Star Wars since the past decade, watching it and reliving some of the moments was a privilege.

Dheeraj Kumar, engineer

A must-watch

Go for the brilliant special effects, soundtracks and visuals even if you know nothing about Star Wars. After the film, you’ll want to discover their universe. I feel the modern cinematic universe must be appreciated for making us believe in something out of the world.
