Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them Review


A two hour propaganda on being an ethical, law abiding person, with awesome graphics is what this movie boasts of. Replace the guns for wands, add mystical animals, an abused teenage boy, an impersonator and there's your story.

I will rate it 8/10

The movie is great but not marvellous. It just doesn't live up to our expectations.  It gives us a glimpse of the Wizard World but doesn't satiate our desires. This movie only fuels our need for a Harry Potter spin off.

My issues with the movie were:
1. They do not say the spells out aloud.
2. Which makes it a silent lightening contest.
3. The animals, though amazing do not make up for the story or lack thereof.
4. I love Redmayne but the rest of the cast could've been better.

Highlights:
1. Graphics
2. Concept of all creatures.
3. It's Harry Potter's World!
4. Good triumphs Evil (obviously)

Apparently, Americans messing up English hasn't changed in the Wizarding World either. Muggles are now No-maj. To sum it up, I would say that it is a must watch and you will like it. There is no Hogwarts and the trio aren't going back to school.
Get over it!
*sobs*

A great movie for kids! Must Watch.



That's all for today!



Keep reading, keep watching!

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Book Review: Leah On The Offbeat

You know it is a good book when it ends up schooling you. I am too old to read high school drama anymore but seeing people rave about Simon vs The Homosapiens Agenda and Leah On The Offbeat, I finally gave LOTO a try. And boy am I glad. Initially sceptical, because the writing style is aimed at teenagers, the first few chapters were a bit difficult to get through. I found the language exceedingly plain, it was overall too kiddish.  It was when the characters developed in the next few chapters, that I was hooked. I have yet to read such great character development in a high school book.  Let's start off with Leah. She is your average protagonist -  angry at the world, a broken family, overthinking things, overweight, smart, the only difference, she isn't lonely. She has a lot of friends. Oh and the fact that she is bi, secretly. As we delve further into the book, her layers peel off. She is in love with a girl who is dating her best friend who happens to...

Those Pricey Thakur Girls - Anuja Chauhan

My only problem with the book is... WHY didn't I read it before! This is one incredible book that literally makes you laugh out loud. It shows a very relatable and realistic image of an Indian household, though having five sisters, alphabetically named, isn't all that common. It is set in a contemporary age which still applies to the Indian society. The hyper, socially conscious mother, with the laid back father, their bickering, tension regarding the marriage of five daughters, arguments related to property, claiming their hissa or part, younger sisters living in the shadow of their elder nemesis. The lives of the sisters and their characters are as different as their names. The eldest and prettiest married rich but is dissatisfied being unable to conceive, second one wasn't that lucky in the money department but has twins and sued her own father for her hissa, third ran away a day before her marriage and has been disowned by the family, fourth is her father's fav...
