ബാഹുൽ രമേഷ് മലയാളസിനിമയ്ക്ക് ആവശ്യമുള്ള വിലപിടിപ്പുള്ള കഥാകാരൻ തന്നെയായി വളരുന്നുണ്ട്. #എക്കോ കണ്ടു, ഇഷ്ടപ്പെട്ടു. തിയേറ്ററിൽ നിന്നിറങ്ങിയിട്ടും അതിനെപ്പറ്റി ആലോചിക്കാൻ തോന്നുന്ന സിനിമ കിട്ടിയതിൽ സന്തോഷം. #FilmOpinion

Here's how I get no views 😂 My badly written opinion of the French Noir classic Le Samourai on my poorly written and tumble-weed infested website. I watched it @www.johnbleasdale.com for the first time (I apologise) & loved it #film #movies #therealfilmcricket #lesamourai #filmopinion

Short Term 12 is a good film. Watch it.
A film so good. so realistic that you could mistake it for a documentary.

Love Again (2023) a daft, heart-string tugging, romantic comedy, not some great artistic piece that will change the world, approach it for what it is and it is a good film. Set in New York but oddly full of British actors #LoveAgain #film #movieopinion #filmopinion #realfilmcricket
