A Certain Skeptic's Ramblings

As of the last few weeks of the school year, I have now suddenly gotten into Indian Cinema and I cannot express the substantial amount of joy it brings me to watch these movies. Like why have I never seen more than two of these before this recent decision of mine? And now my list is like 93 movies long! (I don't have a problem, it's fine :D) Anyways, today's movie: Gang Leader starring Nani Part of me doesn't even know where to start with this. This movie was great, it just requires a tad bit more suspension of belief than I expected when I started the movie. All Indian movies require more suspension of belief than normal, but like this one REALLY does. I can understand why that would make it hard to get into but it's so worth it, in my humble opinion. So here's the thing, when the movie starts with a high stakes bank robbery scene where one of the robbers shoots and kills the other five and steals all the money for himself, I'm expecting an Ocean's 11 t...

 Rating System Breakdown My ratings consist of three categories my thoughts on the premise, story line and plot (50%); my thoughts on the characters and their interactions with each other (25%); and how much I enjoyed the content itself (25%). For visual media, if the art and sound is really impressive, that goes into the enjoyment category. Since the story is the most important part of the content, my score for that category holds the most weight. Below is the scoring scale and what each number means. Great Good Fine Bad 9-10: Fantastic! Loved these!

I recommend some of these. 6: Barely positive. Not neutral, because there were things or characters I enjoye...

Welcome one, welcome all to a brilliant waste of my time and y'alls'! This is the home to my reviews and rants on the content I watch. It started with anime, and has now expanded to just about anything I want to talk about. If you have a suggestion (of any media), let me know here ! GENERALLY HELPFUL KNOWLEDGE Unless otherwise stated, all reviews and rants contain spoilers. Please also read the content warnings. Thank you! Rants are basically me getting my frustrations about a show out on paper. Organization will be held loosely and vary from rant to rant. Reviews are more closely aligned to my rating system, and as such I'll go through each category and explain why I gave that category the number rating that I did. Summaries are positive rants. Just me word salad-ing about what I watched because apparently you need to be convinced to watch it too. Notes are for when I said I would write a review or a rant and I took notes for it and then I forgot to write said content. Tha...
