La vengeance du professeur

Remarkable improvements in web-series. Background Score is brilliant. Acting is good, no doubt about it. But the Location had it all. It's what it made is real.

Emraan hashmi performance is good.... Overall series is worth the watch once and action displayed is good

Watched the complete series in just 'ONE' go, and in one word it's BRILLIANT. I love the way how Red Chillies Ent. produces by focussing on thrillers in India. The amount of twists, the production value,the acting skills and action sequences are too DAMN HIGH, can't get enough of it. Would definitely recommend. 🔥🔥🔥

I have had little exposure to Indian cinema but if Bard of Blood is anything to go by, that may change.

This is a competent and well paced espionage thriller that predictably is nationalistic in character but not so much so, that its overbearing. Its cause is helped by a reasonable, if formulaic story and lots of action, in all the right places.

On the downside there are subs but really, I did not find this a substantial impediment, as a decent amount of this series runs on action and visuals.

All in all, a worthwhile watch that's accessible to a wide audience. 7/10.

Bard of Blood is a political espionage thriller that is based on a book with the same name by Bilal Siddiqi.

Produced by SRK's Red Chiilies Entertainment, this Netflix original stars Emraan Hashmi in the lead role supported beautifully by Vineet Singh, Sobhita Dhulipala, Jaideep Ahlawat and others.

The story is good however, the execution is not very great. It has been shot delightfully even though the narrative is confusing for some parts. A surprise element towards the end saves it for the otherwise lack of grip in the script. The hand to hand combat sequences are nice though. I, for some reason binge watched the whole season that has 7 episodes of 45 min each.

Emraan Hashmi is a great actor and he carries himself nicely as Kabir Anand (I wonder why every other spy is called by this name). Sobhita Dhulipala is equally good while Vineet Singh struggles a bit with the Punjabi accent but is good overall. The rest of the cast is on point.

Had there been a less convoluted transition of events, this would have been at par with the other series, say "The Family Man". It is good if not great!
