Lost In Space Season 1 Review

Lost in space Will Robinson and Robot

There is nothing scarier than being stranded in space and Gravity taught us that all too well. But, being up there among the stars is also fascinating. This great combination of fear and fascination has been explored by countless TV shows and films, none more iconic than Star Trek. I started watching it as a little kid because my dad was a huge fan. Since then, I have been hooked to shows and films that explore life up there, light years away, finding new worlds. Lost in Space is one such show that tells the story of a group of people who have been selected to set up a human colony on a star system called Alpha Centauri. It is a remake of 1965 series of the same name which itself was inspired by an 1812 book named The Swiss Family Robinson. ...  More

Ghoul Official Trailer

Ghoul netflix radhika apte

It may seem like I am biased towards one particular streaming service but that is not true. I can't help it when so much exciting content is being dished out by just one. Ghoul is the latest addition to Netflix and they seem to be hitting it out of the park, one after another.  ...  More

Sacred Games Trailer

Sacred-Games-600x333

Since the time Netflix announced Sacred Games, there has been a lot of anticipation around it. After all, it stars Saif Ali Khan, Nawazuddin Siddique, and Radhika Apte. Add to that, the director duo, Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane. Anticipating and excitement are automatic with such names behind the project.

“Never before have we seen mainstream actors leaving the big screen for a streaming service. Saif and Nawaz have stepped up and this could well be a game changer for the entire Industry.”

This is not ‘just another show’ from Netflix. There is a lot riding on this apart from money. Netflix did not go the Amazon route and launch the service with a big Indian show like Inside Edge. Thank god for that. Even though the cast of the show was decent, it just was not up to the standards. From production to acting to storyline, it was all very premature. However, with Sacred Games, Netflix may have just waited the right amount of time and based this series on a plethora of data they would have mined from India.

Netflix has started on the right note. The trailer looks stunning with some great production value and intensity of the premise comes through. Let’s hope it delivers and opens the floodgates for many more shows. That may just be the turnaround Indian Television needs.
