Typewriter

It's unfair to keep calling it the Indian Stranger Things because it's apples and oranges. This is about ghosts though it takes a bit that story straight. There is a rather pointless subplot involving the husband and a devious ex lover but that along with the ending seemed to be only plot devices for Season 2. The cast is good with a couple real hams and for once the kid actors are likeable, not annoying.

The way some projects are performing (badly) which are made in India, Typewriter is a fresh attempt to prove that we are creative and good makers too. Obviously we can't compare every Indian Series with International Content, there's Vast difference. From what some Indian producers have been making for amazon/netflix etc. this is a pretty good attempt, worth a watch for every Indian.

Good-story telling, shot taking, locations, performances, screen play and dialogues. The characterisation and layering could have been better, it could have been a bit crispier but may be, since it is made for mostly the Indian market the makers have tried to spoon feed, which is otherwise not required. The editing could have been a little smarter and in the climax, the VFX team has not done a good job. But, a brilliant attempt, the location used and the look of the show is quite international. I hope many more attempts are made and we all get to enjoy good content along with some crisp making.

Well done Team Typewriter. Kudos - Sujoy Ghosh you have done an amazing job.

Do watch it. Cheers

Premise and story was good upto 3 episodes... Then went downhill..... And Last episode was really immature....expected more from Sujit Ghosh

You cannot give central role to a kid in show which is rated 16 +.

Makers couldn't decide the audience.

The story is simplistic and lies more in the genre of supernatural thriller than horror. This Netflix series suffers from the same malaise as so many others i.e. stretching a shallow script over too many hours. This would have been a very fine feature film but as a five - episode series with each episode of 50 mts (approx.) it is undeniably stretched. Main reason for this is failure to develop the characters presented. Nevertheless, the story even though simplistic is engaging, the actors are quite competent, direction is appreciable and the production values are good. I like it and endorse it as a recommendation. Nice!
