Watching it for the 2nd time but still it gave me the same stomach churning awful feeling. The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas is one of those movies which is bound to either make you cry or leave in a numb state of silence.

Project Hail Mary Review
A masterpiece! The bond between Dr. Grace played by Ryan Gosling and the alien Rocky is absolutely endearing, bound to make you cry (at least I did). Brilliant cinematography and the vfx shots are mind baffling ❤

Dhurandhar 1 & 2 Review
After watching both the parts I realised even propaganda can be sold and fed to the audience if wrapped in a wrapper of somewhat well crafted filmmaking and engaging performances by the actors.
