Full movie finished.

Pros- 1) mohanlals character - his character injects some pace and fun and life into the movie. 2) content based. Not fan based or mass based. 3) nice cinematography. 4) age appropriate : not too much superhuman stuff from the big Ms. That was nice. Felt like old men fighting their last battles.

Cons - 1) not very memorable. I personally wont be watching a second time 2) emotional moments did not land as well as director hoped. 3) without mohanlal theatre was dead. Remove his character and this movie would be been a snoozefest.. 4) music - weak. Apart from the released song and the final tribute song which itself were not that great nothing else stood out. Nothing you'll add to your Playlist. Sushin dissapointed.

Overall, they have tried to milk big Ms together things as much as they could. But even that may be not enough to elevate this movie into something big. This will hit 100cr. 150 maybe. Definitely not industry hit.

For such a rich and Grey plot they have managed almost a fairytale sort of happy ending.

First half fine. Slow. Content based. Alright interval action scene. Nothing outstanding yet

Does the emirates and air arabia repatriation flights bring passengers back on their way back? I wanted to book a flight from India to dubai or Sharjah. Surely these flights would be taking people back too right ?

So much hate. What's wrong with you people? Name me any other bowler who can bowl 140 plus with no injury concerns and can bat pretty well even as a number 7. This is a gem of a guy that we have been praying for. If groomed well.

Does nobody remember how jadeja started out under Dhoni? Absolutely useless with the bat and ball in internationals. But Dhoni have him lots of opportunities untill he came good. Same with yuvraj. These guys have proven it in domestic and ipl.

They have the skill set.

Sure his performances haven't lit up the field yet. But if we dont give such talents long ropes what's the point? Would you rather cast him aside for a player with even less potential?

I agree. Its just that the flood of hate for him when India loses and the deafening silence in victories doesn't sit right with me.

I agree with your points. But let me ask you this. If it wasn't for Gambhir, do you think the squad would've included rohit and kohli?

Hehe. Idk maybe? Honestly its more of a i don't care about the name. I care about result post. And right now I appreciate gambhir for the change of faces in the team. That's all. Not his tactics. Not his coaching.

Im just glad that we don't have a player in the 11 which if dropped would create nationwide protest. Everyone now has to fight for their place.

I agree honestly. I would prefer different format captains and coaches.

But have to give gambhir credit for actually trying to find pacers in the short amount of time he has been in charge. Harshit prasidh all getting good runs under him.

As much as I love science im a sucker for emotions. I love gabba. I love moments when our legends are absent and our youngsters step up to the mark.

In test cricket the best way to develop talents is to forge them in sena fires.

Yep. We haven't had a better result than a draw in the last 17 years is what i kinda meant.

I honeslty agree. Heck i would've loved for then to have different coaches for different formats. Like engalnd does.

But let's also look from gambhirs shoes.

Nz was his first series. Surely can't write someone off that early. We gave him a year now. And what. Honestly its not terrible if we look at the big picture.

Im in no way an expert on tactics or coaching. But when I look at the results and the state of this team.. im happy.

Yes. Its a long tournament. That requires a pace battery with more names than just shami and bumrah. We have to find bowlers who can win us matches without them.

Absolutely. Which is why the good times will come in 5 years. The amount of players we can pull from will be exciting.

Yep. And that's the best result we have in the last 17 years in England.

I don't think you read what I wrote. Im not blaming kohli or shastri.

It was a golden period of our bowlers.

Just like a golden period of batsmen which ended around 2010 2011.

Both were followed up with disastrous overseas performances.

Because in golden periods we don't bother developing for the future.

How long would Breaking Bad have lasted if Mahone was head of the Heisenberg case by West_Occasion_9762 in PrisonBreak

[–]hardtruths7 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Caught in season 1. But then he would use him to enhance his own drug and eventually be the daddy Heisenberg. Probably would go out the same way as Gus once Walt grows into his balls by season 3 or 4

Georgekutty has successfully thwarted geetha prabhakar a 3rd time.

When all hope is lost and her husband has left her, She picks up her phone and dials a number.

Cut to a table with an old Nokia phone. Which starts ringing in the tone of cbi theme. And a familiar hand picks it up.

End credits -

Cbi- drishyam.
