Where do we draw the line for love?

Is there a line one should never cross when matters of the heart are involved?

How do we love sanely and yet protectively?

How much power does our childhood,.our upbringing have on us?


These questions and more are sure to cross your mind once you lay your eyes on this Netflix original series titled- YOU.

The second season had its release date on the 26th December 2019 and has garnered positive reviews ever since.


At first glance at the title, you just know the series is supposed to be about romance,right? No.

It IS about romance but not the NoteBook type, it's a whole different ball game.

                


It surrounds the life of Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley), a bookstore manager who lives in his books and lacks a social life. He perceives his decisions and actions as full of love and right and noble. He analyzes, predicts, investigates, stalks. He takes measures, and can practically do anything  because of YOU. He can be said to be part sociopath and psychopath because deep down, as crazy as his measures are, he actually feels he is a good man.

    

                         


In the course of his life, he falls in love thrice or so he thought. First was Candice (Ambyr Childers ), then  Beck (Elizabeth Lail) and then Love Quinn ( Victoria Pedretti ).

With each lady, the price for love was costly, family, friends and even their lives were at stake,all for love.

The entanglements in between complicated some cases even more,.but Joe never stopped.

Fate or Karma definitely had it out for Joe and he was blessed or cursed with someone who adored him and could also do anything for him,absolutely anything at all.

Whether in New York or Los Angeles,Joe Goldberg never fails to make sacrifices.


With two seasons out, and a rumoured third season, this is definitely a must see. It touches on upbringing and its effect on how we turn out, as we glimpse into the childhood of Joe

There are lines that should never be crossed in the course of love. No matter how just we think it is or how our munds twist it morally. some lines should not be crossed. Ever!.

The Gentlemen; Movie Review

CAST   Matthew McConaughey (Michael Pearson) Charlie Hunnam (Raymond Smith) Henry Golding (Dry Eye) Hugh Grant ( Fletcher) Michelle Dockery (Rosalind Fletcher) Jeremy Strong (Matthew Berger) Eddie Marson (Big Dave) Colin Farrell (Coach).       The words " drug" and " Mafia" have been known to be associated with blood, chain of commands and dirty deals. The world of drugs isn't one to be taken lightly as every action can be interpreted as either weakness or strength. The Gentlemen showed a slightly different approach to the drug world. It wasn't without deaths and orders but it hard a slightly comedic part to it. Spoilers ahead .      If you've seen the movie, then you can either agree or disagree with some of the wordings here. But if you haven't, I'll try to lessen the spoilers. If the movie had been 3hours long or even 4hours, I doubt if I would notice. Because I was glued to my screen till the very end. The blend and scenery was q...

The turns in the The Turning

The horror movie genre is one of the most successful genre in the movie industry. Scary endings and suspense filled scenes have carved a niche and are not going anywhere anytime soon.     Inconclusive endings are not new to the genre but some endings are indeed too inconclusive.The turning is a 2020 horror movie which held a lot of scare factors but failed to land at a significant point.      With little similarities to The Boy 1, a young lady decides to tutor an orphaned little girl at their manor but is met with circumstances she could have never prepared for.         The whole story started out quite well -the creaking doors, the shadows, the nightmares and then there was an addition of the creepy behaviour given off by Miles, the brother of Flora.      The major flaw in the movie was the absence of a definitive conclusion, too many questions were left unanswered- Is Kate insane? Is Miles truly posses...
