Kalki 2989 AD Funny Review [Hindi + English]

https://youtu.be/DigDPyieoiY 


Kalki Something AD

Bhai badhiya se seat tika ke baith jao, kyuki ye wali rant chalegi lambi!

Let's blast off

Indian calendar

AD: West; CE yes

Pretty basic CGI eh?

Mad Max Fury Road vibe

Excessive OTT melodrama

So-so action sequences too

Snarky hologram? So Total Recall

Star Wars pseudo signage in Kashi

Did everyone forget Sanskrit completely

Some Matrix underground Zion vibes too

A guy with a heavy gun actually swings it lol

And this is just half an hour into this showy movie

Wire work is so uneven I wonder why they even bothered deleting the wires

Some 300 vibes also with our guy taking down a few dozen dumbass mooks

And culminates with a Neo-style Agent Smith swarm breaking upward lunge

Okay - so Kaal Bhairav is the protector of Kashi, created by Bholay Mahadev

Sum-80 is phonetically Sumati, the mother of the Kalki avatar [Nainitaal 10]

They show the statistical 4 lines and 5th across, but she makes 2 in one go

Kamal Haasan is awesomax veteran, I watched Sadma and got Sadma lol

Mandalorian and Grogu vibes with Dulquer Salmaan cameo as the pilot dad

A completely useless side story just to add some sexual glamor named Roxie

Grokipedia doesn’t have an entry yet

I thot I’ll wiki walk but I googled grok

Heinlein invented it for knowing fully

Klaatu barada nikto was for gort/grok

It seems he drinks sea water - not a river, it's a beach with receding waves

In any case, life in paradise pyramid naturally doesn't last long - cue chase

Inferno can't singe a single hair of Sumati! + Ashwatthama is back in action

They didn't leave Star wars either - full ripoff of the swoop speeders bikes

The mass mook beatings are so stupid that I just can't look away hahaha

There's an extended fight sequence between Amitabh Bachchan Prabhas

Guns are thermocol or styrofoam or whatever just cheap moldable plastic

Extras are international for what purpose, I don't know - isn't this Bharat?

Shambhala is Tibetan Buddhist, but has a lot of cultures mixed in - good

Suspension of disbelief = there's no sense making sense of nonsense

Don;t look for logic and you won't be disappointed; just enjoy the film

Like how Bhairav channels his inner Iron Man and upgrades his tech

So he brings a Hulkbuster armor to fight Ashwathama Hulk [Big B]

Wakanda is the "inspo" behind Shambala's blue-energy bhaalaas

Red is of course the color of evil Complex forces; just like Thanos

Any number of massive invasions of evil powers trying to kill good people

Like the Sentinels in the Matrix completely destroying Zion's upper levels

Finally a sequence of slow motion fall and grips unites our trio of players

Verdict - i'll watch part 2 on OTT - i won't waste cinema time and money

Dune // Matrix // Star Wars // Lord of the Rings // MCU // Mad Max // Axat

Watch my reviews, then you'll get a good dose of brain food, not brain rot

Quotes

I don't think of the past. The only thing that matters is the everlasting present. W. Somerset Maugham Ralph Waldo Emerson - "To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment."

Money

By Pink Floyd Excellent song. The lyrics pertain to (most probably) the group's experience itself. As such, it is funny and humorous, poking fun at the system of media barons and "chart" economics.  I relate to it even more these days, when all I need is money. I am at peace, content, moksha-esque, even - but I do need money for subsistence. Which reminds me , how do I monetize my writings? Time to fire up the Vaio. 

A Cascade of Conversations.

It is a convenience to not have to type a datestamp, so I waste a line on it. The conversation I had with Mr. Malik was hurried; if its depth were to be mapped by sonar, it would be very irregular. The air time was pretty evenly divided, I think, although I know my egotistical thought process gives me way more credit than I'm due for. Still, no, wait, not still, I also committed a grave error of leaving out a person from my life history, despite saying in the same conversation, at a different point of time, words to the effect that a nurtured grievance tends to intensify negatively over time. I hope I have not slipped up too badly. Mahak pressed the red button when I called right now. With Mum, I knew in my heart she knew I was going to be serious about Mahak. Hence, at an opportunistic moment was exploited to full advantage, meaning no negativity whatsoever, and Mum accepted the news with good humor; I think her apprehensions are going to wait till December. Now, I have two things...
