Warner Bros. just released the official trailer of Tenet. The action thriller from director Christopher Nolan stars John Washington, Robert Pattinson, and obviously Michael Kane. This time it seems that 'Time' itself has caught Nolan's fancy and he is going to bend it to his will, just like he did with history (Dunkirk), gravity (Interstellar), the subconscious mind (Inception) and memories (Memento). ...
Goodachari means spy (according to Google Translate) and the name fits well. Goodachari is an amazing spy thriller starring Adivi Sesh and Shobita Dhulipala. Now when you read spy thriller, I hope you don't start thinking about the Sunny Deol Preity Zinta Film Hero - The love story of a spy.

That's because, in this film, there is an actual spy, not someone who won a fancy dress competition in school and now believes that it is a profession. ...
Paatal Lok is an Amazon Original series streaming on Amazon Prime Video. The show is a crime thriller and stars Jaideep Ahlawat, Neeraj Kabi and Abhishek Banerjee.

Paatal Lok falls perfectly in line with this pedigree, as it is bold, blazing and brilliant. ...
The Handmaid's Tale tells the story of a dystopian future, told in the first person by Offred. The society as we know it has crumbled. What's taken its place, is a totalitarian system that oppresses women across social class by establishing an extremely patriarchal society. The narrative has 3 sides, 'The Then' where Offred talks about her past and recalls major events leading up to the fall of the government. 'The Now', which gives us a view of the life of a typical handmaid. The third side is sort of like a dream state or a state of thoughts, where Offred is wondering about a certain event or time in her life - past, present, and future. These 3 sides mix and overlap one another so the narrative switches between past and present seamlessly. There are many themes that the book touches upon, from feminism, inequality to politics, and religion. ...
