18 Pages: Nikhil gained national recognition with the success of ‘Kartikeya-2’. Nikhil scored another success with this movie which conveyed the philosophy of Krishna. With that, the shootings of his films in the line-up are going on smoothly. Nikhil’s movie “18 Pages” is also going to be released this year.
What is special is that Anupama Parameswaran, who acted opposite him in ‘Kartikeya-2’, is also playing the heroine. Bunny Vasu is producing this movie under Allu Aravind’s GA2 Pictures. This nostalgic romance story is written by ‘Pushpa’ director Sukumar. The film is directed by Palnati Surya Pratap, who was a hit with the film ‘Kumari 21F’ written and produced by Sukumar.
The makers have officially announced the upcoming song update from the movie ’18 Pages’. He said that the lyrical video song ‘Nannayya Raasi….’ from this film will be released on the 22nd of this month. While Gopi Sundar is providing the vocals for this film, Naveen Nooli is working as the editor. The film will be released worldwide on December 23 as a Christmas gift.
Dhamki First Look: Among the new protagonists, Vishwak Sen is the hero who created a lot of buzz on his arrival. Whether he acted in two films, Vishwak Sen took the megaphone and became a director in the third film. Vishwak continues to vary the titles of his films.
Vishvaksen, who made his debut as a hero with the movie Vellipomaake, became very close to the youth with the movie What Happened to Eenagarani. In this sequence, he got a good craze with his self-directed film Falak Nama Das and turned it into Mas Ka Das.
After doing back-to-back films since then, Vishwak once again picked up the megaphone for the film Das Ka Dhamki. The makers released the first look of Das Ka Dhamki co-starring Niveda Pethuraj directed by Tollywood actor Vishwak Sen on Thursday.
This is the film where he is playing the title role after Falaknuma Das, a remake of Angamali Diaries. Fans are excited to see the actor again in a mass avatar after his boy-next-door roles in Arjuna Kalyanam in his previous films Paagal and Ashoka Vanam.
The production formalities of the film, which is being shot in Hyderabad, will be completed by the end of the week. The first look poster of the film, which is almost completed, was supposed to be presented as a Diwali gift, but it was not possible. This first look was recently unveiled today.
The first-look poster of Vishwak Sen raising his eyebrows and giving threats is impressing everyone. While Vishwak Sen’s back side tuck was shown in the pre-take poster, in the now-revealed e-poster, the young hero Vishwak Sen is seen in a completely rugged look with a light beard, earrings, gold watch, and trendy hairstyle.
As this poster appeared with a different attitude, fans are posting saying that the Dhamki poster is super. However.. it seems that ‘Das Ka Dhamki’ is a hilarious action entertainer. It is said that Vishwak Sen will be seen in a dual role. It is said that one of them is a hero role and the other is a villain role. Niveda Pethuraj is playing the heroine opposite Vishwak. Meanwhile… Rohini – Rao Ramesh – Prithviraj are playing key roles.
Bulgarian fight master Todar Lazarov, who choreographed stunts for films like RRR and Hari Hara Veera Mallu, worked on the climax fight of the film. Along with Venkat Master, Ramakrishna Master who worked in Bimbisara was roped in for the action episode. Dinesh K Babu is the cinematographer for the film, Leon James composed the music and Anwar Ali is the editor.
Apart from the lead actors, the film, which will also release in Tamil, Malayalam, and Hindi in February 2023, also stars Rao Ramesh, Hyper Adi, Rohini, and Prithviraj in pivotal roles. Soon other details related to this movie will be revealed. However.. it remains to be seen what kind of success the movie “Dhamki” will bring to Vishwak Sen.
Love TodayTrailer: No one else is as crazy as Telugu audiences are about movies. If they like a movie in any language, they will be bloodied. With this, heroes in other languages are also preparing to release their films in Telugu. Recently, the movie Love Today became a super hit in Kollywood.
This movie directed by Pradeep Ranganathan of ‘Komali’ fame is being released in Telugu with the same name. Ivana is acting opposite Pradeep Ranganathan. The posters and teasers that have already been released from this movie have impressed the audience. Recently Vijay Deverakonda released the trailer of this movie and wished the film team the best.
As for the trailer… it looks like a romantic comedy-drama. Two lovers who have been in love for years want to get married with the consent of their elders. Heroine’s father asks them to exchange each other’s phone and keep it with them for a whole day if they want to accept their love. From there, trouble starts for both of them.
One’s true nature is visible to the other. The hero takes drugs. It seems that when the heroine knows that Dammu will kill her, the heroine talks to another boy. This couple who wanted to get married will end up breaking up with this one change. Why did the original heroine’s father put this condition..? Did this couple finally meet? Or..? You have to watch the movie to know.
Since it is a Tamil movie, everything smells of Tamil. Netizens are of the opinion that it would be better if this movie was remade in Telugu instead of dubbing. Yuvan Shankar Raja’s music is impressive. This movie is getting ready for release this month. And let’s see what kind of success this movie will get.
Malayalam director Anjali Menon has fans in the Telugu audience as well. She is known as the carafe address of modern Malayalam cinema. There are Telugu audiences who have seen the movies ‘Bangalore Days’ and ‘Ustad Hotel’. The latest movie directed by Anjali Menon is ‘Wonder WomenMovie‘.
Popular Malayalam actresses Parvathi Thiruvothu, Padmapriya, and others acted along with Nadiya and Nithya Menon who are well known to the Telugu audience. How is this movie released on Sony Live OTT (Wonder Women Review)?
Story (Wonder Women Story): Nandita (Nadia) takes special classes for pregnant women. What exercises should pregnant women do at the center she runs under the name of Sumana? How should it be? They say things like The new batch will include Nora (Nithya Menon), Mini (Parvathy Thiruvothu), Veni (Padmapriya), Saya (Syanora Philip), Jaya (Amrita Subhash) and Gracie (Archana Padmini). Everyone has a story, a background! What did they learn in the classes there? Who had small quarrels between them? what happened is a movie.
Analysis (Wonder Women Telugu Review): ‘Wonder Women’ is not a story… Life! The society we see every day! The length of the movie is not long… 1.20 hours! There is not much difference between the start and ending points. After all… what is in this movie? Some may think so. Looking deeper… there seems to be a lot more. Anjali Menon has not told any new story. But, it is told in a new way to reach the viewer what everyone needs.
Wonder Woman
It is said ‘Vina: Stri ya: Jananam nasti, Vina: Stri ya: Jivam nasti’. It means… ‘Without woman there is no birth, without woman there is no life’. A woman is described as Shaktisvarupini. What’s great about ‘Wonder Woman’ is that the mother-to-be is not shown as Adi Shakti. She is also a woman. She was told that she has mood swings during pregnancy. In one scene Sayanora Philip says that I am not divine, but an ordinary woman. The small things that women face during pregnancy are very well explained in the movie.
Her Mother-in-law comes to the class every day along with Veni. One day she asks her husband to come. If the husband asks to take mom… ‘Am I your mom? yesterday?’ asks. The need for a husband is explained later in the scene. Also, Aunty listens to Veni’s words. He does not get angry with his daughter-in-law. understands. Such scenes are heart-touching.
How to lift the baby after birth? How should it be? There is a class. Parvathy Thiruvothu’s performance in that scene is tear-jerking. What happened before that? What happens next? Let’s forget that. When Parvati refuses to give the doll in her hand…crying while holding her grandmother…those scenes are heart-wrenching. Watery eyes. The story of Parvati Thiruvothu, who is ready for divorce for the child in her womb, is heart-touching.
Nithya Menon’s desire to talk to her mother before becoming a mother, her changing her priorities for the sake of a child…we see these types of women in society. Nadiya’s character shows the agony of a woman who loses a child in childbirth, and Amrita Subhash’s character shows the efforts of a late-aged couple for a child. We relate to each character in some way.
Parvathy, Nithya Menon, Nadiya, Padmapriya… everyone acted well. It is not that one is more and the other is less. The characters were brought to life. Sometimes it seems like showing extreme positivity. But, today’s society needs it. ‘Wonder Woman’ lacks the twists and melodrama seen in average movies. This is a film that shows the story we know in a new way. Govind Vasant’s music and Manish Madhavan’s cinematography are top-class. The production values are good.
What is the final say? : ‘Wonder Woman’ is a must-watch movie for mothers-to-be and husbands. It is better to see this not as a story or a movie but as a good message that society needs. There is no such thing as cramming classes. Simple and beautiful… with great music and cinematography!
Masooda Movierulz: After ‘Malli Raava’ and ‘Agent Sai Srinivasa Atreya’, the movie ‘Masooda’ was produced by Rahul Yadav Nakka. Released by popular producer ‘Dil’ Raju. As his filmmaking and promotional films were good, expectations were created for the film. In the current trend of more horror comedies than horror, this is a film made just to give a horror experience. How is this movie released in theaters today (Masooda Review)?
Masooda MovierulzStory:
Neelam (Sangeetha) and her daughter Nazia (Bandhavi Sridhar) rent an apartment. Above them is Gopikrishna (Thiruveer). His job is software. Likes Mini (Kavya Kalyan Ram) in the office. He finds it difficult to propose to her. One day Mini comes to Gopi’s house. As the two get closer, someone knocks on the door.
The opposite side is blue. She asks to come to their house. He leaves the girl he loves. If you look there, Nazia will be possessed by a ghost. What did Gopi and Sangeeta do to get rid of the demon? Who is the spirit that possessed Nazia (her name is ‘Masuda’)? Who is the reason behind Masooda becoming a soul?
Analysis (Masooda Movie Telugu Review): Horror movies are mostly based on Hindu tradition. The difference in ‘Masuda’ is that… the whole story takes place in the Muslim background. In horror movies we see sadhus and aghoras performing pujas to get rid of souls. Even though Shayaji Shinde’s role in ‘Arundhati’ is tied with Taveeds, there are more Hindu Pujas in it too.
Masooda
But, as ‘Masuda’ is all set in a Muslim setting…Peer Babas perform pujas in the Islamic setting to get rid of souls, and show up in a mosque to exterminate a demon with an enchanted sword. The Muslim theme in ‘Masuda’… the way the scenes are shot is a bit new. When it comes to the story… that novelty is lacking. The way the story is directed is also normal.
In the first half, the director only used it to introduce the characters. There is a feeling that the story will not move forward. Though long, some scenes are impressive. After the rest, the real story started. The story seems normal but the scenes are good. The last half hour is suspenseful. Cinematography and music are the main reasons for that. The excitement that something was going to happen continued like that.
Prashanth R. Vihari made a name for himself as a music director with short films. He has fans for his melody songs. With ‘Masooda’ it is said that he can also provide music for horror films. His sound design is good in many scenes. His background music is also a reason for fear. The cinematography is also good. New framing and lighting appeared. Nagesh Banel has brought the desired feel to the horror movie. Build values are good.
How did the actors do? : Sangeet performed a settled performance. Grammar is shown in character rather than glamour. In some scenes, wearing hijab and tying cotton sarees to match the character, the look also feels new. Thiruveer looks like an average youth, a boy next door, not a hero.
Masooda
Acted according to the character. Kavya Kalyan, who has appeared in many films as a child actress, is Ram’s first film as a heroine. Looked beautiful. Acting is also good. The girl has all the qualities required for a commercial heroine. There is also a chance to do different films as an actress. ‘Shubhalekha’ Sudhakar, Satya Prakash, ‘Satyam’ Rajesh, and others adapted to the roles. Bandhavi Shekhar’s performance in the role of Sangeeta’s daughter is impressive.
What is the final say? : ‘Masuda’ is a decent horror film. The story is not new. But, the way the story is unfolded is good. Comedy is not made in the name of horror. Laughed in some scenes. Situational fun was created without writing a separate comedy track. Horror scenes are seen only to scare. Sound Designing, Prashanth R. Vihari’s music, and Nagesh Banel’s cinematography make some scenes scary. Due to the work of both of them, even the ordinary scenes have passed. The length is slightly longer. The editing could have been crisper. The film will appeal to horror fans.
Sudheer is a name that needs no introduction to the television audience. Sudheer is one of the few who has a range craze on the small screen. Sudhir starrer ‘Gaalodu‘ was released in theaters this Friday. Sudhir is no stranger to greeting the audience on the big screen.
Although he had previously appeared before the audience with the films ‘Software Sudheer’ and ‘3 Monkeys’, this is a complete mass entertainer. If you look at the teasers and trailers, you can tell that there are fights and dances in it without taking anything away from big hero movies. These also increased the interest in the film. And did the movie give Sudheer the hit he wanted?
Gaalodu MovierulzStory:
Rajinikanth (Sudheer Sudheer) wanders around town without any money. Because of this, everyone calls Sudhir a fool. Sarpanch’s son accidentally dies in a fight. That case will fall on Rajinikanth. He runs away from the village and comes to Hyderabad. He lives by stealing money from beggars in the city and eating prasad in the temple.
That’s when Shukla (Gehana Sippy) is introduced. Both of them fall in love. Shukla gives work to Rajinikanth in her house. Meanwhile, one day the police come and arrest Rajinikanth and take him away. What happened after that? Are Rajinikanth and Shukla together? That is the rest of the story.
Gaalodu Movierulz
Analysis: Sudheer can dance and fight well. His comedy timing is also very good. But there is a big difference between small screen and silver screen. Dancing for 10 minutes, doing a skit, and impressing is different. Making a two-hour film and bringing the audience to the theater is different. Even though he has already done two films and suffered setbacks, Sudheer is still not taught that philosophy.
Director Rajasekhar Reddy starts the movie in a rather interesting way. Sudheer’s introduction in Jail and the build-up to his character is interesting. Whenever the film takes a flashback, it goes astray. The heroine who is the only heir to a millionaire’s house is attracted to the hero who wanders aimlessly and the scenes between them are dull.
There is not a single scene in the movie that tells why the heroine loves the hero. Saptagiri and Shakalaka Shankar’s comedy is not funny but boring. As long as the songs and action scenes are there, they seem to be okay. ‘Were you born on a Saturday? How do you know… even if it sticks like Saturn…’ This is a dialogue in the movie. Even the author’s sensuous humor stops at such punches.
And the court scene at the end is ‘Never before, never after’. Scenes like the hero and heroine telling the court that they are in love, the judge asking them to prove their sincerity in their love, the judge ruling that the hero and heroine’s wedding should be solemnized at the government’s expense, and getting married in the court saying that they will get married there, should be said to be Nabhavishyat.
Gaalodu Movierulz
And when it comes to actors… Sudheer Sudheer has good talent. He is good at dances and fights. But if you want to become a mass hero in the first step, you have to choose the right story for it. If you take a story like this, the audience will get goosebumps. The way audiences watch movies has changed a lot.
Even stars are not getting minimum openings if they come with outdated stories. Sudheer is sure to succeed if he chooses stories with a different concept and scope to showcase his talent. Gehana Sippy looked beautiful on screen. It is difficult to laugh at the comedy of Shakalaka Shankar and Saptagiri.
Overall… Sudheer fans will love the movie. Audiences who love movies with songs and mass elements can go to theaters even if the story is not necessary. Others have to think a little.
Aha Naa PellantaMovierulzReview: Young hero Raj Tarun also entered the OTT platform. His latest web series ‘Aha Na Pelanta‘ is streaming on Zee5 this Friday. The special thing is… In this, Rajasekhar opposite Raj Tarun, Shivani’s daughter Shivani acted as the heroine. Sanjeev Reddy of ‘ABCD’ fame directed this web series with lots of twists and turns. It was produced by Surya Rahul Tamada and Saideep Reddy Borra.
Srinu (Raj Tarun) is beaten by his father Narayana (Harshavardhan) for saying ‘I love you’ to a girl while studying in school. Since then he curses his father that he will never look down on girls in his life. When it comes to chasing girls, this guy does all the dirty work. If he accidentally looks at any girl, the father will be in trouble. Such Srinu like a wise man agrees to the marriage arranged by the elders.
His marriage with Sudha (Deepali Sharma) is arranged. Shortly after Srinu sits on the wedding stool, it is known that the bride has jumped. The future father-in-law (Posani) tells her that her friend Maha (Shivaji Rajasekhar) is involved in this affair. How did Srinu get revenge on Maha who ruined his marriage? How did he fall in love with her? is the story of this web series.
It is a web series with eight episodes. Each is about half an hour long. Director Sanjeev Reddy has taken care to create curiosity about what happens after the end of each episode. Not only that.. it has been hugely shot as if a movie had been shot. It was fun with background songs.
Aha Na Pellanta
Although there was a slight lag in one or two episodes, they covered it with the comedy that followed. In fact, if it had been edited more carefully and released as a movie in theaters, it would have surely gained the attention of the audience. Recently, Raj Tarun’s films have not played much. It would have filled that gap.
What is the film… In the fifth episode of this web series, love does not arise between the hero heroines. Moreover.. before the last episode, they gave an unexpected twist and made it seem like they got married. But in the last episode, they gave a happy ending in just twenty minutes. Director Sanjeev Reddy’s ingenuity should be appreciated in this regard.
This is Raj Tarun’s foray into the digital medium for the first time, while Shivani Rajasekhar starrer ‘Adbhutham’ and ‘WWW’ have already been released on OTT. But this is her first time acting in a web series. Shivani proved that she too can cultivate good entertainment. Harshavardhan gave a good performance as the hero’s father. What is so special about Amani!? She once again impresses with her natural acting.
In the first episode Bhadram as Pellilla Peraiya, in the later episodes Ravi Sivateja, Getup Srinu, Thagubotu Ramesh, Raghu Karumanchi… In the climax, Raj Kumar Kasireddy provided good entertainment. Stage actor Mohammad Ali Baig played a key role as ‘Mr. K’ in it. Posani, Lireesha, Vadlamani Srinivas, Madhunandan, Deepali Sharma, Kritika Singh, and Trishul Jeethuri played the other lead roles.
Aha Na Pellanta
Although there is not much new in the story presented by Sheikh Dawood, the story is impressive. Kalyan Raghav’s dialogues are hilarious. Nagesh Bannela’s cinematography and Jaduh Sandhi’s background music are good. Famous writer and director Jandhyala named it after the super hit movie ‘Aha Na Pellanta’… It is commendable to create this web series as a clean entertainer without spoiling it. You can watch and enjoy it comfortably with your family in the weekend.
Iravatham Movierulz: Amardeep Chaudhary of ‘Jaanaki Kalaganaule’ fame is the movie ‘iravatham’. What is special is that Punjabi Bhama, who made her Tollywood debut with this movie, played a dual role with famous model Tanvi Negi. Popular actress Esther Noroha has played a pivotal role in ‘Airavatham’ which is streaming on Disney Plus Hot Star from Thursday.
Chigg (Amardeep Chaudhary) falls in love with Shloka (Tanvi Negi) who works in a beauty parlor run by his mother (Jaya Vahini). He slowly tells his mother about their love and wants to get married. Chikku gives Shloka a camera as a gift on her birthday. Shloka takes a video on her birthday and gets shocked when it plays.
Another girl who looks like her appears in the video and calls it her ‘death day’ and commits suicide. After telling this to Chikku, they turn to the police. But the police do not take it very seriously. So Chikku and Shloka go to Tarot reader Maya (Esther Noroha). They see through the magic that Princi (Tanvi Negi) seen in the video as a model.
But… Maya says that very soon one of Shloka or Princi will surely die. What is Prince’s appearance in Shloka’s original camera? What if one of the two dies? What is the connection between the identical sloka and the prince? What is the reason for future Maya to say about them? The rest of the movie is the answer to these questions. The movie was named ‘Airavatham’ as the whole story was based on the white camera.
iravatham/Disney+ Hotstar
Director Suhas Meera tried to tell this story through a child. The entire first half is filled with suspense as to what will happen next. But when it came to the second half, it changed poorly. The thriller genre is somewhat…. It turned into a horror movie. The climax twist is absolutely routine. On a limited budget, Suhas made the film well within his scope but the story could have been made more interesting.
Coming to the actors… TV actor Amardeep Choudhary’s performance is impressive, but in most cases, he seems to be imitating the hero Venkatesh. Although this is the first film for the heroine Tanvi Negi, she fits well in the roles of Shloka and Prince. Especially her dubbing is well set.
Esther Noroha, who has acted in some films and web series in recent times as a boyish character, has effectively played a different role in this one. Her screen presence is good. Arun Kumar, Ravindra, Sanjay Nair, Jaya Vahini, Saptagiri, Rudrapatla Venugopal, and others will be seen in other lead roles. While Satya Kashyap provided the tunes for this thriller movie, Karthik Kodakandla composed the background music.
Naturally, no one thinks about logic in such psychological horror thriller movies. Viewers don’t agree if they leave the ground. That’s what happened with this movie. Although the beginning was good, the story got lost. The second half put the audience’s patience to the test. But…those who like thriller genres can watch this movie on Disney Plus Hot Star once.
Monica O My Darling: Rajkumar Rao had bitter experiences this year with the films ‘Badhai Do’ and ‘Hit’. In this background, his latest movie ‘Monica… O My Darling’ was streamed on Netflix on Friday. Let’s find out how this thrilling murder mystery is.
A murder takes place at a unicorn company that manufactures robots. The security chief will be held responsible and fired. No one cares no matter how much the security chief insists that he was not at fault and that someone did the killing with a robot. Six months after this, Jayant (Raj Kumar Rao), a robotics expert working in the same company, gets promoted to director.
CEO Jayant is already in love with Nikki (Akanksha Ranjan Kapoor), the daughter of Satyanarayana Adhikari (Vijay Kenkre). This is not to the liking of the CEO’s son Nishikant (Sikander Kher). Meanwhile… Jayant already has an illicit relationship with Monika (Huma Qureshi), the personal secretary of the CEO of the same company.
Jayant gets shocked when Monica tells him that she is going to become a mother because of him. Monica blackmails her saying that she is an obstacle to her marriage with Nikki and that she will give money whenever she asks. At the same time, it seems to Jayant that Nishikant and Arvind (Bhagavathy Perumal) in the accounts department are also caught in Monica’s trap and are being blackmailed like him.
Monica O My Darling
Together these three make a plan to kill her. But their plan fails. Instead of Monika, Nishikant gets killed. Moreover, the top executives of the company lose their lives one after the other in unfortunate circumstances. Who is behind all these killings? What does this have to do with the first murder by a robot? As humans control robots, humans are being controlled by robots… Who? What is the role of the investigating officer ACP Naidu (Radhika Apte) in this whole affair? That’s the rest of the movie!
Conspiracies in the corporate sector, conspiracies, illegal relationships, shades of gray in every human being… if all these are combined, what dire consequences will take place in ‘Monica O My Darling’. It shows the life of an IIT graduate who comes from a simple village and enters the corporate world with a desire to achieve something.
In this, we can see how hope, greed, greed, and despair affect human life. It is produced by Sanjay Routhrey and Sarita Patil in association with Netflix. Because it is an OTT release, the wording has been used. One or two romantic scenes were put in without the need for illicit relations! If they are resolved, you can enjoy this thriller movie with your family. The story is gripping from the beginning to the end of the movie. But it is disappointing to tell who the real factors are in a very casual manner with ACP Naidu’s character. What happened in the last shot is left to the viewers’ imagination.
Yogesh Chand Kar, one of the writers of ‘Andhadhun’, wrote this story based on a Japanese novel. He Indianized it well. But if you look at it with the eyes of Sriram Raghava ‘Andhadhun’, you won’t like it. His team worked on this movie, so it is common to compare it with Sriram Raghava movies! RD for the old movie ‘Monica O My Darling’.
Monica O My Darling
Burman’s song ‘Piya Tu Ab To Aaja’ was used throughout the film by the director, including the title of the movie! When it comes to actors… Rajkumar Rao once again got a chance to show his strength. But the importance of that character in the first half has decreased even in the second half. And Huma Quresh, who is known to Telugu people with the Tamil dubbing movies ‘Kaala’ and ‘Valimai’, has given an outstanding performance as Monika.
Radhika Apte, who has acted in several Telugu films, acted as the investigative officer ACP Naidu. She looked a bit new in the role of a police officer who chews chewing gum and does comedy. Other lead roles were played by Vijay Kenkre, Sikander Kher, Sukanth Goyal, Akanksha Ranjan Kapoor, Bhagwati Perumal, and others. Those who have high expectations after seeing the trailer of this movie directed by Vasan Bala will be disappointed. But those who like murder mysteries and thriller movies have a chance to like ‘Monica… Oh, My Darling’.
1899 Movierulz: ‘DARK’ is a sensation in the history of world TV and web series. It is said to be one of the best web series of all time. ‘Dark’ has got such a good name because it adds thrilling elements to the time travel genre and tells a complex story in a comprehensible way. When Janje Freese and Baran Boo Oodar, the creators of this web series, announced a new web series called ‘1899’, the expectations for it increased. The series is now streaming on Netflix. And did ‘1899’ meet those expectations?
1899 Story: The ship ‘Kerberos’ leaves London for New York. There will be a total of 1612 people including the captain and crew in that ship. Four months before the departure of Kerberos, the ship ‘Prometheus’ disappears en route. After traveling for years, the Kerberos ship receives a signal from an unknown ship. A closer look reveals that it is Prometheus. But the signals stop when Kerberos approaches Prometheus.
The captain (Andreas Peichmann) goes aboard some Prometheus. There they find only one little boy. The boy has a triangle. He is brought to Kerberos. The captain receives orders from his company to sink the ‘Prometheus’. But the captain decides to ignore them and take Prometheus back to London. Since then, strange things happen on the ship. Why is that happening? Who is behind them? To know, you have to watch this series which is streaming on Netflix.
1899 Analysis: Telling a simple story into a complicated one is a great art. After the completion of the eight episodes in this series, if we turn off the TV and calmly sit in the chair and think ‘what is the story in this?’ Its writers Janje Frese and Baran Boo Oodar have been 100 percent successful in making it complicated and engaging the audience as well.
1899/Netflix
Baran Boo Oodare is also the director of the eight epipods of this series. This is not a series that can be easily understood when we start a series on TV and watch it while we are looking at our phones and doing other things. When we want to watch this series, we can enjoy it only if we put the phone aside and give our full attention. As mentioned above, if we look in the middle, we stop in the middle because we don’t understand anything.
The first episode of this series starts off very simply. A ship, the passengers on board, slowly peel back the curtain, introducing their different backgrounds. But the reappearance of the missing ship, only to find a boy on board, slowly takes interest in the series. The graph of the series, which has grown slowly in the first four episodes, suddenly rises from the fifth episode.
From there, it takes your breath away with unexpected twists, turns, and supernatural elements. The characters behave according to the situations and scenes which are written without any standard template like hero, heroine, and villain.
But here and there in the first four episodes, the story moves a little slowly. Some unnecessary characters were also given more scenes and screen space. And while the series finale is a perfect lead-in to the second season, it feels a bit unsatisfying that the nature of the key characters hasn’t been revealed yet. The highlight is the final scene that shocks again, keeping up with the audience’s imagination of what the end of the season might be like after seven episodes.
1899/Netflix
Technically this series is also amazing. Especially the background score is unique. Care has been taken to keep the dark shades fresh here and there. Along with the music, the cinematography and set work are also amazing. The 1899 ship is set in a magnificent setting. It was shown so naturally.
As for the cast… the main character for this season is Mara Franklin played by Emily Beecham. She fits the role well. It has cultivated the necessary emotions in different scenes. After him, the most important character is the boy found on the ship. Flynn Edwards played the role well. Andreas Peichmann, who played the middle-aged Jonas Kahnwald in Dark, impresses as the ship’s captain. All others have done justice to their roles.
Overall… This is a web series that should be watched rather than a time pass. If you give it an eight-episode run time, 1899 has a lot of surprises in store for you.
