It's so GGBV. It's really sometimes especially uh titles like this you'll mention or someone will mention a film and I'll be like don't know what you're talking about. It's like yeah you did a review on that. Have no idea what you're talking about. It's like why we used to call it the Debra movie. I still do. Yeah. Because I don't know anything about that film. Yeah I recognize it because I've seen it enough but there's a lot of like I promise you just give me a couple months I will not in any way remember that title. Yeah. But I won't forget the film. Yeah. So anyways but it's it's a new film. It's actually still in theaters. I reached it's it played for a week here. Not anywhere close to us. As close as it was that was actually Orange County. Like Orange County. Yeah. Second week the closest is now San Francisco which is like going from. That's like a seven hour drive. Yeah. So unfortunately we couldn't do that. So I reached out to the filmmakers and asked them I was like is there any way we could get like a screener and they kindly sent us a screener. So thank you guys so much. Thank you very very much for doing that. Miss this one but I've heard a lot about this one. So it is still in theaters for a lot of you. So um. So we're going to do non-spoilers. We're going to do a little non-spoiler and then we'll go into the spoilers section. But it's set in the backdrop of a coastal and cultural city of modern day. Mangaluru. You read the rest. Yeah. Harry and his soulmate Shiva rise together to great heights. Only to face off and you don't even really need to know that much. No. Yeah. Resulting no that's too much at the end. I feel like it's a little too much. A little too much there. Anyways but it's directed written and starring Raj B. Shetty. Correct. Yes. He. Okay. Cool. Um. And I think. Yeah. And he am I correct in the fact that he played. Shiva. Great. Yeah. He did. So he's the writer director and played the lead role in it and composed by. Yes. Mithon Mithkondan and for giving mispronunciation. Cinematographer is. Kravine Srian. Who's also the editor apparently. Yeah. So yeah man. If you haven't watched it go watch it still in theaters. If your theaters are open I know it's parts of India actually still close down some parts. But I know it's still in theaters playing a bunch of different places. So go watch it if you haven't watched it. Rick your initial non-spoiler thoughts please. Initial non-spoiler thoughts. Two takeaways from this. Well let me give you the first one is what I thought about the film whether I liked it or not. Freaking love this movie. Number two. I'm so glad. I was going to. Raj. Raj Bishetty is a freaking force of nature in every level because of this film. Acting, writing and directing. Acting, writing and directing in this is the acting alone would have been enough to be jumping up and down about. And then the third thing I'll say is this is my favorite gangster movie I've seen since Gangs of Wasseburg. Yeah yeah I'd say. Yeah yeah there's a few others I've loved. I'm trying to remember them but yeah I'd say so. But this is because for me this is like and we'll talk more about it but if you want to see a blend of several directors but standouts that are influence not copies but big-time influence is obviously of Anurag Kashyap and even some Mel Gibson director choices especially his use of slow motion. I loved his use of slow motion and a magnificent score with a total team. Every single person in this thing was so freaking right down to the cricket kids. Yeah. Doing their stuff. Everybody was so grounded so I love this movie. The star of this film is Raj Bishetty in all aspects. Force of nature man. Outside of he didn't do the composition and the composition was incredible. One of my favorite scores of the year. Absolutely because it's so unique. Such a great score. It's so unique. So yeah initial non spoilers like I said go watch it. I loved this film. Yep I loved this film. And I was also it was actually Raj who sent me the link. I contacted him on Instagram and he kindly was like yeah I'll totally get you get you a get you a copy and I said thank you so much. This is not like a paid review or anything just getting that out of there. We don't do that but it's nice when we are able to get screeners and film makers. Yeah and I think if you've been around the block long enough to know you could be our ghost if we don't like it. Unless it's rendezvous. That's true because everything he does everything he's ever done. In fact we'll give you reviews about movies he hasn't even been signed on to yet and tell you how good he's going to be. But yeah the film I love everything about it from the acting directing I love the composition. Yep it was so so good. Raj and the main actor the the other main actor who played his counterpart. It doesn't on IMDbA doesn't give me the character names. Oh Harry right Rishad Setti. I don't know if there's a relationship. But yeah maybe a brother. The cop did like I said like he said everyone in this film did so so well. The standout I think was Raj honestly which is crazy the fact that he directed this and gave that performance. He stood out like Abhishek stands out in Patalok. Same standout performance where you love everything about what you're watching. But that particular character is the thing you remember the most. So and he did preface it was telling me that this is heavily influenced by the Hindu trinity which we did we did some research on right up on yourself and about the creator sustainer and thank you for that because obviously that's a huge aspect of it. Especially Shiva yeah and I in fact I and him as well because they were the ones that it's kind of in the Hindu mythology. I apologize it's not called Hindu mythology but that's all I know. They were kind of kind of conjoined and they showed the two faces of the god right right and how they interact and also the just the origins like there's well we'll get into spoilers to talk about that. So if you know about Hindu mythology and like the Hindu trinity I think you'll probably because there's probably many stuff that we missed. Yeah you would over our head. It would it would just be the icing on the cake. Yeah of how brilliant the movie is if you also have a depth of understanding of what he's showing representationally some of which we can get into in a moment because I know enough about Shiva in particular to know he did some stuff that was pretty cool. Yeah anyways go see it. Support the movie. That was your non-spoiler view. Go watch it and come back and hear what we have to say. I would have loved to watch it in theater so if you can go watch it in theaters please go watch it. And the big thing about seeing it in theaters is twofold. One you get the cinematic experience which is the best place to see a movie. It was designed for a movie theater. That tiger. Full absorption. I know the dance sequence. And then then secondarily is the fact that it deserves the box office because if it gets the money then the creator gets to do more things like this. So um spoiler time. In terms of films that came out this year it's in my top five easy easy easy. I have to obviously there's so many that great Indian kitchen there's I know there's uh the military one there's a boxing one. Yeah not too fun. Not not too fun. No and and then all of them we just watched. Joji and then Joji. Did Briani come out this year? Yes earlier this year. Yes like there's a lot but I can probably easily say this is in my top five easy. And it is my favorite gangster film since gangs. Yeah I'd say so good. It's so good. Let's just get into it. I want to tell my favorite aspect is his performance in this on top of we'll get into his directing and and writing was so good. It's just like you said that's a good in Patalaak and Abhishek Abhishek right? Abhishek. Um his performance in that it's so nuanced it's so creative and it's so compelling. Yeah he's the one you want to see all the time. You're compelled any time he's on screen. Yeah what is he gonna do next? This is so exciting. He has one of my favorite sequences I think in Indian cinema so far I'd have to think about but when he after he murdered once again this is the yeah these are the spoiler part. I know you're talking about them and he just does the dance dance. That's one of the most iconic things I've seen in Indian cinema it's so good. It absolutely should be up there as with the score behind it. That moment of him doing that and doing that dance in the rain and it's in slow motion with that music underneath like there's certain moments you're watching in film and as you're sitting there watching it you're like this is never going to be forgotten the last time I had this is going to be a strange comparison and I'm only making the comparison based on the feeling. I remember when I watched Frozen for the first time. That's so weird. Very weird comparison but the first time I watched Frozen and she's and the song Let It Go was happening. I remember sitting in my seat and thinking this isn't just a normal Disney song moment. As that song was going on I thought this is something that's going to be bigger than the movie itself. This song is going to be remembering I'm watching a moment right now. I just knew it and that's just like Frozen. That's the comparison and the fact that when I watched that moment I thought this is a cinematic moment right here that should be remembered. It's iconic and the whole sequence leading up to it was incredible with the acting of the person that gets killed. He did a great job and the tense situation that was going on. I love and I don't know if there was any symbolism in him wearing shoots of every person but that was such a brilliant idea and then you knew exactly what that guy's son-in-law with the white tie and they showed his shoes. I'm like he's dead. Yeah and then his entrance just showing his shoes. But yeah that whole sequence was absolutely incredible. His performance it was just so it was it was very subtle. He wasn't like doing anything like joke or extravagant or anything. But he was that's maybe he just has the it factor but that also goes to just showing acting. He's like you don't need to do a lot to be memorable and iconic. No you just be the character. Be the character. I feel like he knew this character because he wrote this. I feel like this was definitely a passion project. I feel like he had been waiting a long time to embody this character because he could so connect to this character. And it does in the same way that I believe Mel Gibson is such a good director because he's also a very good actor and directors that can act or in the case of a Steven Spielberg no acting. Like the thing that makes Spielberg so great is that even though he's not an actor he knows acting and he knows music. If you watch some of the gold footage of him and John Williams doing the score for ET you listen to Spielberg talk to him and he doesn't have the musical vocabulary but he has the musical intuitions. It's very comparable to when we listen to something and you'll say something about music and it'll be like that's because you you know music. You may not know the vocabulary but you know music and this director if there's a reason this whole cast is as good as they are. The director knows actors and knows acting and I'm sure gave them direction and helped everybody give what is a uniformly grounded performance by everybody in this cast. And in Rachev Shetty had great chemistry together. They were great chemistry for the Shiva and Vishnu. Is that the other is that the other God? That's yeah it's it's it's I apologize. I'm not trying to offend anybody not at all. It's our ignorance. Our ignorance is not a mocking but they're they're kind of relation to each other and I love the whole origin of it of coming up from the kids and then at the end oh my goodness going back into the hole for whence you came. Yeah but their whole chemistry together he gave a really grounded great performance opposite of Rachev. Yeah I thought and justifiable it was everything was justifiable in terms of the relationship they had the closeness they had and then the betrayal because it wasn't just a carte blanche selfish turning on Shiva that he did it was based on the fact that Shiva was getting out of control however what was really cool about Shiva the destroyer and I asked us about in Johnny I said the destroyer in Hinduism isn't a bad destroyer it's the destroyer of evil because I she caught the tail end of it with me she didn't see the whole thing she'd been sleeping and I I pointed out I said his first murder is fantastic because what's happening in the first murder is this guy who's just wanting to collect on his money and the guy's got a gun to his head and Shiva's just standing out there with it was that a cricket ball or yeah it was like a ceramic cricket ball who just comes in and without I loved every murder was like without hesitation without second thought brutal destruction yeah they said they mopped up 17 of the guy's teeth off the floor I loved and the fact that it was always in protection of or the defense yeah not him that's why the kids with the at the end are so dumbstruck that this guy they played cricket with that all they know he's the guy who will go take vengeance when a person that shouldn't have been hurt's been hurt so when he's gone you understand them wanting to go revenge him yeah and the symbolism at the beginning we did get on the fact that his motorcycle is the ox yeah that the neck wound is because it's our understanding based on our study that Shiva has the serpent around the neck and then as you notice it was really cool before he's full grown he's got some of the blue on him and he's got the trident so it was a really direct yeah which is why I said if you know it like because we both obviously grew up christian and so if anything had to get christian symbolism we would pick that up in in film but obviously we didn't grow up hindu so it's why the passion the christ yeah is so good is for me it's not just because of its cinematic elevation it's because I know so well every little thing both from what he's depicting in terms of definitive christianity that would be globally accepted versus some of the things he took that are from the pentateuch and some of the things he took from the septuagint some of the things he took from judeism yeah because I have same with the the movie noa a lot of people didn't understand noa and I was like well if you have an understanding about what the world has about their thoughts about the global flood and take it beyond just the biblical account he's not all off base and so yeah I'm sure most of you would be able to point out some of the things that are brilliant that would win over our head but even still obviously we love this one another aspect of it was the score um off the charts I haven't gone back and look at all the films of the year when we do our yearly award I'm gonna have to go back and listen it's gonna be hard really because there's been a bunch but this one and I don't want to have like a recency bias thing of like forgetting the age right we saw something in February yeah but this score was so unique in terms of just what it decided to do in certain moments it went like no score like that was a score and then cut out yeah multiple times like that's so good I love it and you could hear pieces of this and think to yourself is this even from the same film yeah because it was so eclectic but it fit yeah it still felt like it was supposed to all be it's really a brilliant score yeah one of my favorites scores of the year um and the cinematography as well I thought was was great once again I would love to have been able to see this yeah in theater the slow mode I just Mel Gibson I bring him up a lot because he's one of my favorite directors and I've watched his career since lethal weapon days and really admired the work goes especially especially as a director and Gibson has talked about how much he loves and you can see it he's done it in every film he did it in Braveheart he's done it in Patch of the Christ he did it any film he's done he loves to use slow motion and it's an underused theatrical element because it can be a big mistake because you're slowing the footage down which is your screen time and he does it a lot and it worked like the dance wouldn't have been what it was if it wasn't in slow motion it's because it was in slow motion that it made it so powerful as was the kids attacking and ending uh his counterpart the fact that that moment was in slow motion and he did a great job in some of the shots because it would have taken from the moment but the believability of the moment maintained it's it's being intact because the kids are stepping on his back and stomping on him and from the overhead shot that's easy to pull off but when you're down his close-up was close enough to get his face and reveal just enough so that there was some solid shoulder things and it didn't look like they were pulling punches it looked like they were really stomping on another character which i really enjoyed was the cop he's great which was okay you felt so bad for him in the beginning the slap of the hand oh it was hilarious it was great he was like i finished i'm done and the the choice to do that as if you were a spectator outside the property and he's just walking over to him congratulations after all he went through poor guy yeah i felt so bad for but it was so so well written so well in um and obviously the beginning where he's like i just want i don't want to be here i don't want to be important i don't even want to be here and i'm threatening my kids yeah and you're like what and then his whole sequence of uh you know like telling the driver he's like you're not going to mess with me anymore i'm going to put a bullet in your head and what i loved about that was the humanity of this guy the easy choice in the writing would have been to take that character and get him heartened and okay now you've attacked my kid all bets are off and i'm going to kick everybody's ass that that is that is a theatrical element that wouldn't work because it's not really bless you humanly believable which more believable is this guy maintaining the core of his personhood as i'm just a nice guy why can't we all get along yeah you know it's like trying to it's like trying to force snoop dog to sing about cap on somebody's ass that's not going to happen snoop's going to say let's get stoned oh he has you just need more of his uh his yeah he's known as the he's the let's all get along and can't we all just get stoned now now yeah that's what i mean go back no now i'm talking about this the snoop we've known for the past like 10 years that's in character kate perry snoop that's a kate perry snoop exactly that's who this cop was he was kate perry snoop so weird we're comparing the film to frozen kate perry snoop these guys these are weird so anything else so we forget to talk about on the uh yeah i didn't i can't outside of if you don't it's a gangster drama if you don't like slow dramaticness in the second half because the first half is a little faster and there's a little more like blood and gore in the first half the second half you just i still think it goes by and i i don't really think there's any problem but the second half is a little slower um and but it's a gangster film that's what gangster films are well it's because you go from learning about the characters and the situations that they're in to now going into the deeper dimension which is pretty much the format of all gangster films if you follow them you really get to learn about the characters and the situations they're in and then the second half is about the personal stuff with those characters if you haven't seen godfather it's not all shooting up it's mostly dialogue mostly dialogue and very slow at times godfather one and two yeah either they are that way yeah uh but yeah this holds up and no wonder no wonder on your i've cussed you up would be loving this film because it's a great film he's been uh raving about on his instagram yeah but go see this film if you haven't already i hope you're not already here if you haven't seen it yeah but let us know what you thought about this film
