Shazam 2 ibomma | Shazam! Fury of The Gods 2023 Telugu Dubbed Hollywood Movie Review

Shazam 2 Movierulz

Shazam 2 Movie Review: What does it mean to be a God? Not surprisingly, we open our review of Shazam, Wrath of the Gods with this question, since it is one of the focal points through which the plot develops and the whole story at the center of the new DC film is expanded. 

In recent months, the big changes in the Warner house have frightened and excited fans around the world, with sudden cancellations, painful goodbyes, but also dizzying announcements. The entry of James Gunn and Peter Safran at the top of the new DCU is dividing fans around the world who were both fond of the previous films and, simultaneously, disappointed by them.

In the general chaos, many feared for what would happen with Shazam, to the point of asking Zachary Levy several times what would become of his character. What we have seen with Shazam Fury of the Gods, is certainly interesting, in terms of long-term reasoning, even if everything always remains in the hands of the general public and the numbers that this film will be able to bring out in the cinemas of the world.

One thing, however, it is fair to say at the beginning of all the rest: this sequel, in addition to keeping its identity intact, confirms a certain type of heart that will certainly not disappoint the historical fans of the character and of the previous story (if interested in recovering the comics of this superhero, you can find them on Amazon).


Shazam! Fury of the Gods: family and history

One of the great merits of this sequel is to explain and expand on everything that the first film left behind. Thus in Shazam, Fury of the Gods both the spectators and the protagonists themselves will know the origins of the powers at stake, and the story behind the choice of the champion and the wizard himself. 


Obviously, the way in which the general picture becomes increasingly clear is in perfect Shazam style, with an underlying lightness that continuously plays with the childhood identities of the protagonists, and with writing focused on subverting the more classic dynamics present in such stories. 

Humor is a central element in this film, a tool ready to lighten everything, proposing a rather original narrative in certain moments, and far from the stereotypes of mannered cinecomics.

The story of Shazam, Fury of the Gods picks up shortly after the events of the first film. Now Billy Batson (Asher Angel/Zachary Levi) is no longer the only superhero in the family, finding himself coming to terms with his brothers, and trying in every way to keep together a group of people who are still trying to discover their own potential, each following a different path. 
Shazam! Fury of The Gods/Warner Bros.

Thus the film oscillates continuously between the childish/adolescent dimension and the super one, carrying on the story of these heroes who, although out of the ordinary, find themselves facing a context much bigger than them from many points of view. Past history takes over all this, with the Greek epic becoming the main driving force behind all the magic present in the lives of these boys. 

We finally discover the origins of the term Shazam and the reasons for its existence, when Antheia (Rachel Zegler), Calypso (Lucy Liu), and Esperida (Helen Mirren) raid the world of humans to seek their revenge. These three goddesses, daughters of Atlas, belong to the past and are looking for the so-called “champions” to make them pay for what happened to their father and put an end to the domination of the magicians.


Grow and find yourself

As in the first film, Shazam! Fury of the Gods we find reasoning on issues such as belonging, family, ties with others, the search for oneself, and one’s identity in the world. Even if our protagonists have grown up, they are still kids with difficult pasts (even if we only know Billy’s in reality). 

The powers acquired in the first film are central to telling each of them, precisely through the contrast they create. Just say a word and these guys with problematic traits become super strong, super fast Adonis, and with everything in between. Managing such a dynamic is not easy at all, and each of them finds himself reacting in a completely different way to the situation.

In all of this, we find a Billy who tries in every way to control this newfound group of super, without ever really succeeding. His leadership is driven by a heart that has been broken many times throughout his life, inspiring a blatant insecurity that drives him to act more like some kind of despot without the necessary means, than as an actual leader. 

To all this, we must add that the protagonists of Shazam! Fury of the Gods is teenagers or children, finding themselves at a time in their lives where not even they are fully aware of what they want. The film, therefore, manages to perfectly channel this particular dynamic, presenting characters far from perfection, completely ignoring the responsibilities they have agreed to take once they obtain these powers.

All of this takes over the story behind the magic that made them such and the fact that no one has ever really prepared them for what they will have to face, explaining the reasons for their task. Here the film becomes a real research journey, not from a physical point of view, but from a conceptual and intimate point of view. 

The characters must understand the weight of the powers they are using not as superheroes, but as Champions, referring back to the Greek epic with the reasoning that exploits the most famous stories of Homer and other singers of the past, to outline a rather interesting and full of ideas.


Tell something lightly

As mentioned above, one of the hallmarks of Shazam! Fury of The Gods is precisely its underlying lightness, ready to question the stereotypes of the case. David F. Sandberg builds a narrative through images that he certainly knows how to entertain and amuse, exploiting the colorful photography of Gyula Pados in a riot of screen elements that know how to keep one’s mouth open.

The choice of Zachary Levi remains a trump card in this sequel too, bringing to the stage a character who continually oscillates between potential ethics and a certain childish insecurity that works perfectly. This particular dynamic also returns to the other characters, first of all, Freddy Freeman (Jack Dylan Grazer/Adam Brody), allowing the director and screenwriters to stage the classic adolescent worries, projecting them into a context that is always and in any case on the genres.

From the point of view of the antagonists, we are faced with two very interesting figures with considerable weight both in the story and on the set itself. Lucy Liu and Helen Mirren are much more believable as villains than we’ve seen in the past. 

Theirs is a story with a much clearer and more impactful motivation, driven by a series of reasons that are linked to the past of the story itself, with a stage presence that is felt in every single shot (we saw the film in the original language), and an acting verve that knows how to capture attention with epic moments that remain indelible. 

At their side we find Rachel Zegler; her interpretation further dynamizes the negative dimension of the film with the positive one, bringing on stage a series of feelings that further facet the situation. One last not-to-be-negligible element of Shazam! Fury of The Gods is the soundtrack by Christophe Beck, always ready to make the most of the individual developments of the film. We remind you that the film will arrive in Italian cinemas from 16 March.

Rana Naidu 2023 Web Series: Netflix's New Series with Venkatsh and Rana Daggubati Review

Rana Naidu

Venkatesh and Rana are acting together in the web series ‘Rana Naidu‘. Both of them have not acted together in movies till now. But directly seen in the web series. And how is this ‘Rana Naidu’?


Rana Naidu Web Series Story: 

Rana Naidu (Rana Daggubati) is a fixer who solves the problems of Bollywood celebrities in Mumbai. He is capable of doing any illegal work. Rana Naidu’s father Naga Naidu (Venkatesh) is released after serving 15 years in Chanchalguda Jail. 

Naga Naidu and Rana do not like it at all. Rana has an elder brother named Tej Naidu (Sushant Singh) and a younger brother named Jaffa Naidu (Abhishek Banerjee). What are the problems in this family? Why is Naga Naidu in jail for 15 years? Watch Rana Naidu on Netflix to know all these things!
Rana Naidu

Rana Naidu Web Series Analysis: 

How is this series? Gripping? Before this, there is one thing to know. ‘Rana Naidu’ will definitely be a game changer web series in the history of the Telugu web series. Because this is the first time that big stars like Venkatesh and Rana are doing web series in Telugu. Plus it’s not just a regular action, crime web series. 

Adult content and toys are also abundant in this series. So this series cannot be watched with family. Another thing to mention about this is that ‘Rana Naidu’ is not a Telugu web series. If you look at the lip sync, you will know that it was shot in Hindi and dubbed in Telugu.


The Hollywood series ‘Rana Naidu’ is an official remake of ‘Ray Donovan’. Crime, action, mafia, and drug elements are added to the problems between family members. Like all series, it starts slowly. The screenplay becomes racy as the story progresses. The conflict between the family members has been written in an interesting and emotional way.

Especially the face off scenes between Rana and Venkatesh are emotional. The language and scenes in it may seem normal to those who watch English web series regularly, but for the general audience, they are a bit too intense. Of course, this was mentioned earlier in the promotions. Because of this, no matter how prepared we are, it takes a little time to process when we see them on the screen.
Rana Naidu

Each episode is around 50 minutes long. There are total of 10 such episodes. That is about 500 minutes long. But the story picks up pace after the initial episodes. So time passes without us knowing it. The way Tej Naidu and Jaffa Naidu’s characters are portrayed is impressive. What is special about this story is that instead of revolving around only two characters, many characters are given great importance.

The directors Karan Anshuman and Suparn Varma have directed the series well. Background music by Sangeet and Siddharth is impressive. Especially the emotional scenes were taken to the next level by their music. Jayakrishna Gummadi’s cinematography carries the mood of the scene. 

Netflix produced the series with no expense spared. It ended the first season giving a lead to the second season. Viewership is the measure of OTT success just like theatrical success is measured by revenue. Irrespective of the reviews, the audience is keen to see Venky and Rana in a new avatar, so there is a possibility of a second season too.


Rana Naidu Web Series Actors Performance: 

This is a completely new type of role for Venkatesh. So far Venkatesh means family hero, action hero, and comedy hero. But in this, we can see a completely new Venkatesh. As a playboy, Venkatesh has exploded as an actor in a role that shows negative shades. No matter how great a character is on the big screen, there are certain limitations. 

But as there are no such borders in OTTs, Venkatesh has brought out a new side of himself. Those who see Venkatesh as a complete family hero may not like Venky as Naga Naidu. But an actor should do all kinds of roles! Rana is not new to such roles. But the way this character behaves, and the language he speaks makes Rana look new. 

Ranane himself said that he had some trouble during dubbing. Abhishek Banerjee as Jaffa Naidu is a surprise package. He gave a good performance in the role of a man who was sexually assaulted as a child. There are many more main characters in the series. Surveen Chawla who played the role of Rana’s wife, and Sushant Singh who played the role of Anna… all the actors acted well.

Overall… Rana Naidu is a must-watch if you want to watch a good web series this weekend. But it should be seen as a single.

Anger Tales Web Series 2023: Disney Plus Hotstar New Telugu Web Series Review

Anger Tales

‘Anger Tales‘ is a web series produced by actor Suhas. Young directors Venkatesh Maha, Tharun Bhascker, heroine Bindu Madhavi and others have played the lead roles, and the audience has been interested in this series. And, let’s know the story of the series released on ‘Disney+ Hotstar’ (Anger Tales Review).


These Stories: ‘Anger Tales’ is a collection of four stories. Ranga (Venkatesh) enters the stage for the benefit show of his favorite hero movie ‘Blaster’. He takes care of all the work including ticket sales. As the film could not be screened at the specified time, the audience who went to the theater expressed anger. 

One of them, Pacha Bottu Srinu (Suhas), taunts him that the film is gone and Ranga gets into a fight with him. Both of them make a bet saying ‘if the movie is a hit then you should do it, if not you should do this’? What is that bet? Who won? To know that, you have to watch the first episode ‘Benefit Show’. Eating meat is forbidden in the apartment where Rajiv’s (Tarun Bhaskar) family lives. 
Anger Tales

Rajiv’s wife Pooja (Madonna), who has a health problem, consults the doctor and suggests that she should eat an egg. So, Pooja gets eggs and eats them without the knowledge of her husband and father-in-law. Rajeev finally found out about it.. What did he say to Pooja? What Pooja did to that is the summary of the second episode ‘Food Festival’.

As for the third episode ‘Afternoon Nap’… Radha (Bindu Madhavi) stays in an old house on rent. The lady of the house joins the relatives on the stairs. Radha, who is used to sleeping in the afternoon, hears their words and one day tells about her trouble. No matter how much you plead, their behavior will not change. 


And how did Radha take revenge on them? It’s good to see it on screen. Giridhar is an employee of a real estate company. Marriage is delayed due to baldness. When he tells his grandmother (Sudha) that he will undergo hair transplantation, she disagrees. Finally, Giridhar loses his job within a few minutes of getting married. 

After his grandmother’s death, he got a hair transplant with her insurance money, why did he not want it again? Who was sued for hair loss? That can be seen in the fourth episode ‘Helmet Head’ (Anger Tales Review).

How it is: Although the stories in this are different, the emotions of the main characters are the same. All characters eventually show anger, regardless of the reasons. Director Tilak has tried to impress the audience of all sections with four different stories. There are chances that most of the audience will think that ‘I have faced the same, I also have this experience’. 

Fan presidents of star heroes are in uproar through ‘benefit show’.. The theater owners will face pressure if the show is not shown at the specified time.. Is the movie a hit or not? They showed the fight between the two factions. Protesting in front of the hero’s house by a lost fan in the name of a benefit show is new. Whether it was the intention to screen or thought it was ‘OTT’, they used vulgar language here and there. Those scenes seem a bit awkward.

In the ‘Food Festival’, the sentiments of unfree women were revealed. These characters should have been shown more strongly as it is a problem faced by many in society. That is what is missing in this story which gives importance to emotions. Instead of an egg, choosing another theme and moving the story faster would have been better. 

In ‘Afternoon Nap’, the life of an average middle-class housewife is shown. The bickering of the husband and wife, the hope that there will be a change in their lives soon, the small quarrels with the house owner. As for ‘helmet head’.. Baldness is one of the problems faced by many of today’s youth. It has already been said in many movies that unmarried people suffer because of it. Similar scenes are seen in this too. Giridhar’s character takes a different course when he learns the cause of the hair loss (Anger Tales Review).

Who did it: Director Venkatesh Maha, who became a sensation with ‘Keraf Kancharapalem’, introduced his inner actor earlier. But this is the first time that he is playing a full-fledged role. His performance in the Ranga role in this is impressive. Suhas did justice to the character with negative shades. Bindu Madhavi, who is very close to the audience with films like ‘Avakai Biryani’, ‘Bumper Offer’, and ‘And Pilla Zamindar’, has shown good gestures as Radha. 

Fani is a new actor. Tarun Bhaskar, Madonna, Sudha, and others say it is not fair. A song from the first episode and background music is entertaining. The cinematography is good. The series could have been better if it had reduced the stretch and reduced the length of all the episodes (Anger Tales Review).

Strengths: + Third episode, + Great acting by Bindu Madhavi and Venkatesh

Weaknesses: – Slow narrative, – Lack of strong emotions

Finally: Anger in all but two ‘Tales’ are good.

Note: This review is from the perspective of the reviewer. This is the reviewer’s personal opinion only!

The Night Manager ibomma: The Night Manager Web Series Review, The performance of the actors saved this season

The Night Manager

The Night Manager Web Series Review: Bollywood stars are leading this web series. Their characters are well-written and this is what saves The Night Manager. While the tightness of the story is loose in between. The problem is also that when the most exciting turn comes, the talk is over. A long wait ahead comes to you.

If remake films are in a bad shape in Bollywood, it is not that all Indian or original is happening on OTT. The business of Indianizing foreign web series is going on fast here. At the moment everything is new, so something seems fine. But the way the writing on the lines of films is second-rate here too, it is doubtful that this game will be able to last long. 

The Night Manager is a novel by a writer named John Le Carre. In 2016, BBC has made a web series with the same name. Now the Indianization of that series is being streamed on Disney Hotstar. Disney Hotstar is creating content for Hindi and South languages, but its Hindi PR is not working properly, nor is it able to show OTT the right path regarding Hindi media and audience.
The Night Manager Movierulz

How is The Night Manager Web Series?

The Night Manager starts off modestly, but the first episode demands a lot of patience. If you cross this, then the remaining three episodes definitely thrill a bit. But the problem is that there are sudden filmy turns in this story, where the logic is completely missing. The story written in accumulation becomes completely filmy. Sometimes a day is shown neatly and sometimes a jump is made for months in a few minutes. 

The storytelling style of film and web series gets mixed. You do not understand whether the writer is telling the story in the web series or it is a script written for the film. Certainly, the characters are well crafted here, but the story is lax. Directors Sandeep Modi and Priyanka Ghosh have tried their best to make the scenes believable. The thrill of the web series increases gradually. But when the story has reached the most interesting point, then the talk of this season ends.


Now, what next…?

The Night Manager is the story of Shaan Sengupta (Aditya Roy Kapur). He was an officer in the Navy. But after personal failures and disillusionment, he has become a hotel manager. He is the night shift manager of a five-star hotel in Dhaka (Bangladesh). There is no one behind him. 

In the hotel, he meets a 14-year-old girl who has been forcefully married to a rich Bangladeshi. She is his third wife and a victim of physical abuse. The girl asks for help to return to India with pride. But before Shaan can do so, that girl is killed. From here, the entry of international-level criminals takes place in the story. Whose Sargara style is alias Shailendra Rungta (Anil Kapoor). 
The Night Manager Movierulz

For the show, his business is shipping, but he buys and supplies arms illegally all over the world. India’s intelligence agency RAW is keeping an eye on him. Shaan Sengupta along with his friend Lipika Saikia Rao (Tilotma Shome) plans to win Shelly’s trust and trap her in RAW and succeeds in it by the end of four episodes. Now, what next…?


Circular Planning

OTT was liked by the people because here all the episodes of the entire story can be seen in one go. But in order to keep the subscribers hooked, here the OTTs are forcibly pushing the story into two and three seasons. 

When the story catches up in episode four of The Night Manager, only then do you find that the road ahead is closed. Now you have to wait for months. Amidst the weaknesses of The Night Manager’s story and script, it is saved by the performance of the cast. Aditya Roy Kapur and Anil Kapoor are Bollywood stars here. He has played his characters well. 


But the series brings the performances of Chamak Tilottama Shome, Shashwat Chatterjee, and Sobhita Dhulipala. Jagadish Rajpurohit and Bhagavathy Perumal also create a stir when they come. You can watch these four episodes for about a quarter to a quarter of an hour in your free time. If you are ready to wait a long time for the next story after this.


Director: Sandeep Modi and Priyanka Ghosh

Stars: Aditya Roy Kapur, Anil Kapoor, Sobhita Dhulipala, Tilottama Shome, Shashwat Chatterjee, Jagdish Rajpurohit

VBVK ibomma | Vinaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha Movie Detailed Review

Vanaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha

Vinaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha Movie Review: Kiran Abbavaram’s movies keep on flopping. Apart from the movie Raja Varu Rani Varu, he did not have another big hit. SR Kalyanamandapam, which came in Corona time, became a commercial hit. He could not hit again till now. Now Vinaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha is coming to the audience. And what is the story and stories of this movie? Let’s see how it is.

Vinaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha Movie Story:

Vishnu (Kiran Abbavaram), who lost his mother and father at a young age, grows up under the care of his grandfather. As the saying goes that if the mouth is good, the city will be good, he has been helping those around him since his childhood by taking good care of the cooking. 

Darshan (Kashmiri Paradesi) enters the life of Vishnu with the concept of number neighbor. She also makes videos with Sharma (Murali Sharma) along with Vishnu for the concept of Number Neighbor for her YouTube channel craze. But taking one of Sharma’s words seriously and thinking of doing a live murder prank, Sharma actually dies. 
Vanaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha

This leads to a situation where Darshan has to go to jail. What did Vishnu do when his beloved Darshan went to jail? Did Darshan really shoot Sharma? Did he save the original vision of Vishnu and bring it out? You have to watch the movie to know.


VBVK Movie Actors Performance:

Kiran Abbavaram as Vishnu is natural like our boy next door. He did emotional scenes well. And in the case of fights, it seems like a bit more dosage. As a vision, Kashmir does not seem to matter. Beauty and acting seem to be okay. 


Murali Sharma makes everyone laugh. If you see Murali Sharma in the first half, another angle is shown in the second half. Murali Sharma seems to be an overall hit. Shubhalekha Sudhakar as Srinivasulu, Sarath Lohitanya as Rajan, and all of them acted according to their scope.


VBVK Movie Analysis:

The point of making contact by calling the side number turns this movie. The point is new to hear. How the story revolved around that point.. He made good use of the point of what happened due to calling the neighbor’s number. 
Vanaro Bhagyamu Vishnu Katha

The story written in this episode and the twist at the end is good. But the first half seems entertaining. Murali Sharma, Kashmiri track will make everyone smile. So they surprise everyone by giving a twist with the interval card.

In the second half the story feels silly in some places. In some other places, it is slow going. The Neighbor Number concept is reaching the country and abroad. All of this sounds a bit silly. Seems far from logic. But in the flow of the movie, they all seem ok. The twist given at the end seems to have given a boost to the movie. The director is pleases in this regard. And it seems that the line is also ready for the sequel part.

The dialogues in this movie are clapped at many places. In some places, the sermons and prophecies seem to please everyone. The songs don’t seem to matter. And RR impresses everyone. In the action sequence, however, it seems to be overkill. The editing and art department are also done well. Build values are good.

Rating: 2.75

Sir ibomma | Dhanush's 'Sir' 2023 Telugu Dubbed Movie Detailed Review

Sir

Sir Movie Review: Lately, many combinations of Tamil heroes and Telugu directors have come to the screen. The movie Sir was also opened in such a combination. Telugu director Venky Atluri has simultaneously released the Tamil movie Vaathi and the Telugu movie Saar in the Tamil star hero Dhanush combination. 

The film, which is a bilingual film, is releasing worldwide on 17th February. But a day earlier, premiere shows were held in two Telugu states. Let’s see how this movie is in the review.


Sir Movie Story is:

The entire story unfolds from the perspective of Annavaram Satyanarayanamurthy (Sumanth). Some guys come to Satyanarayanamurthy, an IAS officer, looking for a man. Murthy starts telling about him after realizing that the person is not the one who made him reach this level, the lecturer Balagangadhar Tilak. 

Balagangadhar Tilak (Dhanush), a junior lecturer at a private college, thinks that if he is a senior lecturer in his life, he can educate many people. In the year 2000, if the government is going to bring a bill to reduce the influence of the private junior colleges that are emerging from the engineering colleges, all the private colleges will adopt the government colleges and take some of them who are working as junior lecturers and appoint them as lecturers. 
Sir

If they do it with the intention of not studying properly, 45 students in the village named Siripuram will pass the first year with excellent marks. Due to this, Tripathi (Samudrakhani), the owner of private colleges, tries to prevent the boy from studying. 

He also causes many problems, how did Balu sir educate all those children at such a time? How did all the children study with the lessons given by Balagangadhar Tilak despite being expelled from the village? What is the role of Meenakshi(Syukta Menon) in these developments? That is the story of this movie.


Sir Movie Analysis:

The director Venky Atluri, who opened the film as a bold move, later took it forward in a way that created expectations among the audience. First, he arouses the interest of the audience as to who AS Murthy is by saying that he is an IAS officer, and then immediately he arouses the interest of Balagangadhar Tilak alias Balu. 

Balagangadhar Tilak has taken everyone into the story to fall in love with his character. First off the entire character of Balagangadhar Tilak, and his efforts to make children interested in education are shown. Similarly, Hyper Adi’s comedy tracks with another Tamil actor are impressive to engage the audience. 
Sir

Venky Atluri, who wrote the film in such a way that the audience was interested in it during the interval, carried the film in a gripping way even after the interval. Dhanush shows that Samudrinikhani goes to great lengths and makes many efforts to prevent children from being educated at all costs. 

Later, in the second half, Dhanush’s attempt to teach them how to study, and the difficulty he faced, were also shown. Even though he is having a love affair with the heroine in the middle, he has a good heart without any hint of obscenity or indecency. Venky Atluri has managed to deal with the climax in such a way that all the audience comes out thinking.


Sir Movie Actors Performance:

When it comes to the actors, Dhanush, who played the role of Balagangadhar Tilak alias Balu in this movie, ran a kind of one-man show. There are many characters in the movie but the audience will fall in love with Balu’s character. Dhanush tried to impress with his natural performance in that role. 

Samyukta Menon also tried her best to act in the role of Meenakshi. It is no exaggeration that she acted with her eyes in some scenes and songs. Malayalam actor Harish Paredy, Tamil actor Aadukalam Naren, Samudrakhani, Tanikella Bharani, Sai Kumar, Hyper Adi, and many other teenage actors have acted in their range in the film. It seems that no one’s character has been brought and stuck in a very natural way.


Sir movie technical team:

When it comes to technical aspects, the film’s director Venky Atluri’s mark is seen throughout. The director has succeeded in conveying the point he wanted to make directly without any hint of obscenity or obscenity. The intelligence shown by him in some scenes seems to have been said by Abba Bhale. 

And his written words were thought-provoking. Venky Atluri’s dialogues about caste discrimination and the importance of education are not reminiscent of Trivikram’s writing style. And there is no doubt that the music provided by Jivi Prakash Kumar is an additional attraction of the movie. 

In particular, the song Masteraru Masteraru was as beautiful to watch as it was to listen to. The editing is also very crisp, apart from the small logics, the movie is interesting and keeps the audience engaged. The cinematography adds extra beauty to the movie, and what about the production values of Harika Hasini-Sitara companies?

In short, Dhanush’s ‘Sir’ is a feel-good emotional thriller. It is a movie that is free of any indecency and obscenity and should be watched by the whole family.

Rating: 3/5

Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumania ibomma | Ant Man 3 Marvel movie review

Ant Man 3

Up and down the Quantum Realm with Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, and the rest of the cast of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantummania. The first film of Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe arrives in Italian cinemas on February 15, 2023.

Don’t underestimate the little guy. And write down the date: February 17, 2023, the day on which Phase 5 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) begins in all respects, at the same time as the release in cinemas of Ant-Man 3. A distribution of The Walt Disney Company, third directed by Peyton Reed for the third chapter of the micro (!) saga dedicated to the famous superhero ant (here is a summary of the overseas comments on the film).

From the cast of the first two, Ant-Man (2015) and Ant-Man and the Wasp (2018), all stars return for Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania. Which would be Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly, Michelle Pfeiffer (she was on board from the second), and Michael Douglas. 


Of note in positions that count two precious new entries such as Kathryn Newton and Jonathan Majors. William Jackson Harper and Katy M. O’Brian complete the cast, plus a few surprises that it is better not to spoil. 

We are well aware that concepts such as strategy and long-term constitute the ABC of Marvel thinking, so we must not underestimate the fact that this very film has been chosen to inaugurate a new chapter in the largest serial operation in the history of entertainment cinema. 
Ant Man 3

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania leans on a super-consolidated formula made of feeling, action, humor, and bold and colorful aesthetics. In addition, he cannot avoid integrating the narrative with themes and ideas that have value for the series, in general, while maintaining the appeal of the film. It works, overall. Again, don’t underestimate the little guy.


Ant-Man and the Wasp – Quantumania: all together passionately (in the Quantum Realm)

Do not underestimate the picoletto is in a nutshell the meaning of the book. What book, you say? Well, what Scott Lang/Ant-Man (Paul Rudd) wrote about himself. It’s called Look out for the little guy and it’s a fairly realistic snapshot of the state of affairs in Ant-Man’s life as the film begins. 


The time of history is synchronized with our present, therefore a few years after Avengers: Endgame, with all that follows. At this point, you guessed it, Scott Lang really has nothing heroic to do, other than trying to establish himself with the general public as an Avenger worthy of respect. Just a little’. Everyone mistakes him for Spider-Man.

And in the family? Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is a film with a family format, traction, and vocation. Hope/Wasp (Evangeline Lilly) does great at home and at work, has a good relationship with Cassie (Kathryn Newton), his daughter, stubborn, impulsive, and allergic to any form of injustice. 
Ant Man 3

Janet (Michelle Pfeiffer) has finally managed to return to her daughter, Hope, and her husband, Hank (Micheal Douglas), after thirty years spent in the Quantum Realm, far from anything even remotely resembling the word home. Janet wants to relax and make up for a lost time, logical that she doesn’t feel the need to go back to the difficult years with the memory. 

No one dares to ask her anything, in fact. Only Hope senses a sour note in her mother’s reticence, but she doesn’t investigate. On the other hand, there is no reason; all goes well, to the point that Scott has set about writing best-sellers. The truth is, Janet and the others sincerely believe they are done with the Quantum Realm.


The bad news for the protagonists, delight for the viewer, is that the Quantum Realm is not finished with them. They end up in it accidentally, due to an experiment conducted by Cassie; growing up she developed a prodigious passion (and expertise) for science and technology, with all the risks involved. 

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantum Mania is the story of Scott, Hope, Cassie, Hank, and Janet as they grapple with the weirdness and wonder of the Quantum Realm. Breathtaking landscapes, strange creatures, natives fighting against a mysterious oppressor, above all William Jackson Harper and Katy M. O’Brian; he with an incredible and a little embarrassing ability, she a tough warrior. 

The mysterious oppressor is played by Jonathan Majors. We saw him in the form of the One Who Remains in the television series Loki. Here he introduces himself as Kang the Conqueror. The character has the importance of him.


Phase 5 begins with Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, very interesting characters arrive

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is a film cut with an axe. The first part takes a while to take the right turns, thanks to a certain lack of imagination in the exposition, in the preparation of the story, and also because the emotional dynamics that bind the protagonists know, inevitably, already seen. 

And a more explosive (in every sense) and calibrated second part, the moment in which the viewer realizes that the things that happen here and now have a resonance even beyond the experience of the film. 

This is MCU canon at its best; keep everything together, the big and the small, an apt image, to the extent that each film is a brick of a larger wall (of a narrative). Without, this reason, nothing decisive is sacrificed to the dignity of the brick. Everything good in the film inevitably passes through Jonathan Majors. Literally, the Passepartout undermines Phase 5. The word to keep in mind is still Multiverse.
Ant Man 3

Phase 5 is the moment in which we finally go out to see the stars again, the impression of a greater sense of history, a design that begins to clarify itself, at least in its essential elements. Jonathan Majors has charisma and physicality, a dramatic sense of things, and a perverse elegance. 

It makes the melancholic and traumatized emotionality of his (anti) hero tangible, without softening its dark charm. The Italian viewer should try, after having experienced the dubbed film in theaters, to recover Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania in the original language. 

If only to verify the splendid work on the voice of the character offered by Jonathan Majors: there is everything needed to grasp its psychology. Sophisticated, but not pretentious. Authoritative, with a not-too-disguised streak of madness. In one, indeed two words, extremely dangerous.


Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is the right film to start Phase 5. The background is already defined and, really, there is no need to add much. The chemistry between Evangeline Lilly and Paul Rudd, and the conjunction of prestige and charisma of Michael Douglas and Michelle Pfeiffer; are all proven beyond a reasonable doubt. 

This helps Kathryn Newton get into the film with some ease. More generally, the familiarity of the operation makes it possible to adapt universal ideas to the body of the story, which are also valid for future films. There are also contraindications.


Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, with self-irony not taken to the extreme consequences, reflects on the marginality of the hero of the same name in the heart of the Marvel universe, inviting us to take him more seriously (and rightly so). A film is full of ants, action, and humor. 

Obviously, the family is the engine of many (beautiful) things, while the moral of the story reminds us that being small does not mean not being able to make a difference. Herein lies the problem: even the most edifying message, obsessively repeated, film after film, loses its emotional bite. 

The work on the aesthetics of the film is very interesting, halfway between the classics of science fiction for children of the 60s (journey in the mysterious world) and a strong echo of Star Wars, the cumbersome ancestor of the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the big house of pop culture. There too, are complicated families and bad guys with a (broken) souls. A long time ago, in a Quantum Realm far, far away.

Farzi ibomma | Farzi 2023 Amazon Prime Web Series Detailed Review

Farzi/Amazon Prime

‘The Family Man 2’ web series was a super hit on OTT for both seasons. The latest web series ‘Farzi’ is directed by Raj and DK, creators and creators of the series. This is the first web series starring Hindi hero Shahid Kapoor. This is also the first release of Vijay Sethupathi in Hindi. How is this series? (Farzi Web Series Review)

Farzi Web Series Story: 

Sunny (Shahid Kapoor) is a good artist. When he painted something… it was difficult to find an original or even a duplicate. Such a great artist. Mother dies in childhood. Auto leaves the father on the train. He is brought up by his grandfather (Amol Palekar) since childhood. 


Along with Sunny, Feroze (Bhuvan Arora) whom he met at the railway station! Grandfather runs a magazine called ‘Kranti’. No one would read that value-driven magazine. On the one hand, the rejection of the readers, and on the other hand, the burden of debts, especially the burden of old age, cause pain in the mind of Sunny’s grandfather. 

One day, when the debtors came and quarreled, Sunny and Feroze printed 500 rupee notes to pay off their debt. After that, it becomes a habit for them to print fake notes. They get used to the luxurious life that comes with money. What did Mansoor (KK Menon) do when he came to know about Sunny, who is like a Maharaja in the circulation and transport of stolen notes in India? 

Farzi/Amazon Prime

What obstacles did they face in their journey? What did Michael (Vijay Sethupathi), a government officer whose aim was to stop the smuggling of counterfeit notes, do? What is the conflict between Michael and his wife Rekha (Regina)? Why does Sunny get in touch with Megha (Rashi Khanna) who works in Michael’s team? Fall in love? What is the sketch behind ensnaring her in the name of love? If you want to know the answers to many such questions… you have to watch the web series ‘Farji’.

Farzi Web Series Analysis: 

Before I tell you how the series is, a word must be said! Villainism is now heroism! Success is coming if the criminals are shown as heroes on the screen. So… Shahid Kapoor’s role should be seen as the hero in ‘Farji’. 


Vijay Sethupathi is also a hero as he plays the role of leading a team like NIA and Task Force. Hence, there is no strong villain in ‘Farzi’ to speak of. However, after watching the entire series, it is understood that the viewer’s palatial run time (length) plays the role of the main villain.

Each episode of ‘Farzi’ is about an hour long. As the film has limitations in terms of length, the directors and writers are trying to tell the things that cannot be said on the silver screen on the OTT screen. 

From that point of view, there is nothing new in ‘Furji’. It is like a cat-mouse game. And to be honest… aside from impressing the viewers, there is a masterclass in type for those who want to print counterfeit notes. That range of detailing in the case of scenes and other crimes is boring.

In ‘Farzi’, the length of the episodes feels long, the main reason why the series is not impressive is the characterizations and some scenes! For example… the starting scenes between Shahid Kapoor and Kavya Thapar remind us of Allu Arjun and Deeksha Seth’s scenes in ‘Vedham’. 

Farzi/Amazon Prime

Watching the scenes between Vijay Sethupathi and Regina… In ‘The Family Man’, Manoj Bajpai and Priyamani’s track comes and goes before the eyes. The series as a whole has very little to engage the viewer in terms of emotions.

Shahid Kapoor doesn’t seem to have any compelling reason to print stolen notes. If he had properly established emotional bonding with his grandfather before that, or if he had faced humiliation during the days of sleeping on the railway track, then it can be assumed that he did it for money. 

That didn’t happen. On the other hand, if Vijay Sethupathi is blackmailing the minister and doing what he wants… it will be laughable. Maybe… that scene was shot for dark humor! Stupid words are used in the dialogue.

Watching ‘Farzi’, one suspects that Raj & DK, the writing department team will take viewers for granted in order to cash in on the popularity of ‘The Family Man’! They followed ‘Family Man’ in technical aspects like cinematography, music, and editing. The screenplay is also nothing great.


Farzi Web Series Actors Performance: 

Regardless of the writing and scenes, all the artists gave fantastic performances. If Shahid Kapoor is settled in acting… Vijay Sethupathi will impress with his acting and dialogue delivery. His characterization and dialogues are entertaining. KK Menon has once again done a good job in a role with villainous shades. 

Farzi/Amazon Prime

Rashi Khanna’s character is good. Even her acting! As mentioned earlier, ‘family man’ Priyamani will be seen in the role of Regina. Hence, her performance doesn’t register properly. Amol Palekar, Zakir Hussain, Bhuvan Arora, Kavya Thapar, and others had good scenes to register.

Finally what? : In terms of actors and length, ‘Farzi’ is a very big web series. At any stage, the tension of whether Shahid Kapoor who is printing stolen notes will be found or the belief that Vijay Sethupathi will catch the gang of stolen notes is a special feature of ‘Farji’. 

There are very few interesting things except the performance of the artists and some scenes. If you still want to watch it after saying this… after watching one or two episodes, you will get clarity. Because… stretched and stretched and left. Those thinking of watching it with kids, think twice. Beep words echoed through the stars’ mouths.

PS: Challam sir character in ‘Family Man’ in ‘Farzi’…Michael (Vijay Sethupathi) calling Tiwari (Manoj) is an interesting topic. Raj & DK will create a universe of spy series by combining the two series!

Writer Padmabhushan ibomma | Writer Padmabhushan 2023 Telugu Movie Review

Writer Padmabhushan

Writer Padmabhushan Review: Suhas entered the cinema as a comedian and then became a hero with ‘Color Photo’. Moreover, he acted as a psycho in ‘Family Drama’ which came out two years ago, and as a villain in ‘Hit-2’ which came out at the end of last year. 

‘Writer Padmabhushan’ is a film where Suhas acted as a 100 percent comedy hero. Produced by Anurag Reddy, Sarath Chandra, and Chandra Manohar, Shanmukha Prashanth made his debut as a director through this film.


Coming to the story… Born and brought up in Vijayawada, Padmabhushan (Suhas) dreams of becoming a great writer. Father is a government employee and the mother is a housewife. Unbeknownst to them, he borrows lakhs with the help of a friend, writes a book titled ‘Tholi Patti’, and publishes it himself. 

Unable to sell it, Nana turns around. He works as an assistant librarian in a library to pay interest on the loan. After reading a novel written by Padmabhushan and getting impressed, Menama thinks to marry his daughter Sarika (Tina Shilparaj). Sarika also feels proud to marry her nephew who is also a great writer. What the film is… it is not a novel written by Padmabhushan. 
Writer Padmabhushan

And who, why, wrote that novel and published it as a book under his name? Also, why are you running a blog with his name? What would have happened if the future father-in-law had known about this? The rest of the story is about Padmabhushan’s efforts to find and catch his unknown ghostwriter.

Films being made in the backdrop of Vijayawada have decreased a lot in recent times. Director Shanmukha Prashanth wrote this story taking such a town and its background. In the past, Bejawada was still the center of book publishing. Vijayawada is the month for hundreds of publishing houses. 


Basically the protagonist Bhushan is a writer and the plot is well set since he has to go through many twists and turns to sell his book. The entire first half of the movie is spent with an up-and-coming writer’s fight for his name, film freaks to promote his novel, and a few love scenes. 

All the writers connect well with these scenes. But there is a risk of boring the general audience. It seems like it should be stretched too much. In the second half, Bhushan’s experiences in searching for a ghostwriter will impress everyone. Even if the twist in the climax is somewhat predictable, the director has shown a small point so sensitively and so brilliantly! 
Writer Padmabhushan

The audience leaves the theater feeling This is not just a movie to be watched with parents as the movie makers want it to be… a movie to be watched with confidence. In this, director Shanmukha Prashanth explores the mind of a middle-class housewife in a touching manner. But… can’t say that the rest of us will connect to it like the middle-class audience did!

Suhas is a different style among comedians in Telugu. He has the knack of getting into any role given to him. We can expect more good roles with this method actor. A look at his filmography makes this clear. Not just a good performance in this too… He has done super signature steps in the songs with easy body language. 

Tina Shilparaj has done well in the role of the heroine. Rohini Keraf now addresses middle-class housewife roles! Casting her for the role of Saraswati was the right decision. Also, Ashish Vidyarthi, Ashok Kumar, Goparaju Ramana, Gauri Priya, and others gave good performances. Shekhar Chandra’s music and Venkat’s cinematography are pleasant. Director Shanmukha Prashanth should be congratulated for taking a small point and presenting it in a cool and clean manner without fuss and shouting.


Plus points

  • A selected story
  • The way said
  • Impressive climax


Minus points

  • Being confined to one category
  • A bit boring first half

Tag line: Writer Padma Bhushan Sannof Saraswati!
