The Wednesday morning show

I have come out for the morning show today. For someone who never wanted to watch movies alone it’s amazing how life takes a twist to where I end up enjoying movie watching alone in a theatre. Yes there are other couples and gang of friends nearby you tempting your emotions to wallow in the loneliness but you can also remind yourselves to have a role play where in you are Anupama Chopra in the theatre as a reviewer and actually enjoy the movie without any sarcastic comments from your friends and partners.

It’s not that I didn’t try asking others. I did. But for weekday mornings, except for myself all are busy. Lucky me, no?

There were totally 10 people apart from me in the theatre. And none next to me in my row. Good for me, atleast no one would see me crying!

The movie was “Metro.. In dino”. Mixed feelings as answer for “how was it”. Were they trying to normalise cheating? Like, it happens, so give second chances and move on? Or go and cheat back since you have been cheated and are “adjusting” now? Also, I am not the one to hide secrets so can’t understand how you can hide about abortion/pregnancy etc to the other person! Atleast they were young and were bound to make mistakes but an older person? I don’t agree that some relationships have to be broken off in a hard way. Also the whole second half seemed to be overly dramatic and not at all realistic as the first half. I mean men who says sorry and really mean it? Too much whitewashing there. Same for women. I know how easily my emotions can be swayed, and you still show women who know to sacrifice? Puh leez! And I am sure there would be few who can’t tolerate Papon and Pritam showing up out of nowhere! I would’ve preferred it not being a musical and concentrating more on the realistic aspect. And no, I didn’t miss Irfan, like why should we, this is a film he is not part of and that’s okay. I did read somewhere Pankaj Tripathi was not rightly cast but I felt he was cute. So in total an average movie.
