Biopics sure have an advantage with a ready-story. But that comes with its own challenges.
You cannot use much of your imagination (fictional ideas).
Yet, you need to impress the audience. Make the audience watch. Keep it interesting.
To be honest, 'Kaun Pravin Tambe?' movie kept me more engaged than '83'.
'Kaun Pravin Tambe?' seemed quite genuine, no unnecessary masala, sticks to the biopic's cause, shows you the end-to-end story coverage and keeps you rooting for the hero.
Sure, 'Kaun Pravin Tambe?' may not be among the best indian biopics out there. If i recall, i'm sure 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' was a much better story teller.
But, after a long time, 'Kaun Pravin Tambe?' showed why biopics can be interesting.
Shreyas Talpade is a very under-rated actor. Such roles, especially biopic characters, are his specialities. He debuted as a cricketing character in his 1st movie after all.
Must watch - if you can sit through a good drama / biopic.

I kept wondering how the story about wakanda's super secret city & strength be revealed to the audience. And I couldn't have expected any better, simpler, crispier father-son narrative on why wakanda is the way it is!
Black Panther covers most of Marvel's ingredients, but it feels to have gravely lacked in finding the proportions. There were hardly a couple of scenes that was really funny. Neither the story nor the plot felt fulfilling. Story was weak, didn't cover much but just revolved around the technical advances of Wakanda's super secret city and its rituals. Plot could have been better, didn't have much coverage either. VFX was really good, and that was it.
Killmonger was shown the main villain, but for some reason Klaw seemed a better and audience loving villain who got killed in a jiffy. Killmonger needed a stronger background and story showing him more competitive to the black panther, but it was just his muscles, attitude and an american accent that took more coverage (oh i missed "Nay". You'll know what i mean).
Black Panther is not as much a negative movie as i might have made it sound, but the expectations for various reason were so high, that the movie just failed to meet it. Although it is a definite 1 time watcher, but one lacks the content of having watched a full-package Marvel movie simply because there just wasn't enough of everything.
Black Panther a one time watcher if you are a Marvel's fan. Else the film will interest you only in parts. IMBD's 7.6 as on date is almost justified, although i would give it a 7.1/10 in the long term.

Beautifully written & taken. Though I haven't watched its original (Malayalam version), its been a long time that Tamil cinema has had a delicacy of this kind. A very light comedy and pleasant romance that makes you want the two people to unite. Prakash Raj may have this repetitive actions, but that's just his style. He's one actor who's surely versatile the way he fits into characters. And he's proved that again. Made me realize i was so wrong in trying to get my head around which Hollywood drama to watch, when there's one right at home. Drama is not everyone's cup of tea, but if you are willing to educate yourself as a viewer it set's you in the right path. If you are up for a romantic-drama-comedy at its lighter best, you don't want to miss this drama.
