    Hi guys, how are you all? I hope you are doing well. Friends, those of us who like to watch Bollywood movies or have an idea about the Bollywood industry are more or less familiar with Hrithik Roshan. . Most of his films are super duper hits. Because he chooses many movies that he does not see more than one or two movies a year. But the number of his fans is not less. I also like to watch Bollywood movies. I also have Hrithik Roshan on my hero list. I have seen most of the movies starring him. And his latest movie was much talked about. Which was one of my reasons for watching this movie. I tried to watch this movie when it was released and thought today I would share some things about this movie with my friends.

    At the beginning of the movie, a boy is shown with an AK-47 gun in his hand. He is doing a briefing standing in front of the camera. He is a militant. He committed suicide attacks on some Indian soldiers. Right at the moment of the attack, he made this video and released it to the media. This is how the director started the movie. In the beginning, the director has started with a suspense. I like the beginning very much. In the beginning, if such suspense is created, then the curiosity of watching the movie increases a lot.

    Basically, this movie is about the Indian Air Force. The main character of this movie is Hrithik Roshan, the hero of this movie. They have an internal conflict with their neighboring country Pakistan. And from that conflict between the two countries took the form of a large-scale war. First, Pakistan attacked India in this war. And their two pilots were arrested by the Pakistani Air Force. Later the Indian Air Force conducted an operation to rescue their pilot.

    There are several action scenes in this movie in which you will like Kshetra very much and you will think that Kshetra's belief has been exaggerated here by the director. In this kind of movie, action has to be kept in mind. Because this movie was made about the Air Force. So I think the director could have presented better. However, I can say that it was not bad at all. In one place, in particular, I was very unhappy with the open presentation of the neighboring country as the enemy.

    The heroine's performance in this movie was worth watching. For me, the heroine of this movie is Deepika Padukar, I like her performance. In addition, everyone who has worked in other roles in this movie has tried to present their performance in a very beautiful way. Those who have seen this movie will agree with me.

  2. Fighter (2000) - Movie Review@coldsteem3215d

    Jan Wiener and Arnost Lustig are survivors of the Holocaust. The two Czech friends survived two very different experiences during the war. Lustig is a writer who became a communist after the war. Wiener had a far more difficult struggle. He was a fighter. This documentary retraces Wiener's steps during and after the war in a journey that will stretch his friendship with Lustig to the breaking point. The writer and the fighter provide an interesting insight into the personal dynamics rooted in the horror of war.

    Wiener's father taught him to fight at a young age. Discrimination was rampant long before the war set in. As a young Czech, Wiener was not one to stand idly while being taunted. His father taught him to ask again what name he had been called. And if the boy repeated it, Wiener would punch him. This fiery spirit and self-determination set Wiener on a very different path than Lustig, who conformed with the communists after the war. Wiener provides insight into his inner fire with a story he related about obtaining his exit Visa. He was treated disrespectfully by the Czech bureaucrat, making Wiener burn with revenge throughout the war. He was driven to return after the war, determined to kill this man. He later relented when the man begged for his life. But getting to that point interrupts a long saga fraught with danger and sorrow.

    Wiener's mother was taken to the camps. His parents had divorced, so his father was living in a distant region. Wiener made his escape, visiting with his father en route. Wiener wanted his father to join him, but attended his suicide instead. It was a suicide that his father likely chose rather than slowing down his son in hopes that the young man would survive. Wiener realizes later in life that is was a selfless act that allowed his father to die with a modicum of dignity, while freeing him to travel lightly. Wiener rides beneath a train on the coil springs beneath the toilet outlet until he arrives in Italy. In Italy, he is imprisoned for several months, ending up at a work camp, where he escapes. He works his way to the Allied lines and ends up in London, serving in the armed forces as a pilot. After the war, Wiener returns to Czechoslovakia, where he and other pilots are under constant scrutiny from the Communist government. His mistreatment includes beatings and imprisonment at the hands of the same Communist Party served by his friend, Lustig. The memories of this experience drives a wedge between the friends as they each call into question the motivations and recollections of the other.

    Lustig was also sent to the camps during World War II. They revisit the camp where Lustig felt pride in his work on the railroad. He is asked where the railroad leads, to which he responds "Auschwitz." The irony is not lost on Lustig, who describes his own myopic vision while building the railroad upon which so many Jews would be sent to their deaths. For him, it was a place of survival. Later, his railroad became the oppressive Communist Party. Wiener is troubled by Lustig's association with the party and challenges him about belonging to a group that tortured its own citizens. Lustig claims he quit the party when he learned that they had created their own "camps" and places of torture. While Lustig continued to write, Wiener obtained asylum in the United States. Lustig arrived later and the two eventually became friends. We watch as that friendship slowly unwinds on a journey of painful remembrance.

    Director Amir Bar-Lev does not overtly insert himself into this story. Many documentaries end up with a point-of-view heavily influenced by the Director. Bar-Lev allows this story to be told by the participants. The writer and the fighter. What results is a sometimes comical and always candid look into a fragile friendship and two very different histories with a common point of origin. The dichotomy of the two stories sets up an interesting and gripping examination of how the war affected people and the depth of the scars that originated in that dark period. The wounds are exposed in a way that feels intimate and never exploitive. As viewers, we are treated to a very personal recollection of experiences that, in the end, feels rewarding, informative and intimate. I highly recommend The Fighter with 8/10.
