The Goat Life (2024)
Prithvi's finest moment!
I watched this movie first day, first show at Dhanya, Kollam. Prithvi does an excellent job as the insufferable Najeeb. His transformation from an innocent village man to a helpless shepherd is tough to watch. The Arab owners are ruthless in their approach and effective as they prevent Najeeb from leading a life with dignity.
There were plenty of crowd-pleasing moments throughout the movie. Gokul has done an excellent job as the young and impressionable Hakeem. Jimmy Jean-Louis makes an appearance in the second half and carries the movie, helping our protoganists reach the road to freedom.
The only reason why I didn't give this movie 10 stars is Prithvi's excessive romantic angle with Amala. I felt the song shot in the pond was unnecessary and didn't add any value to the movie.
Judging by the positive reaction of the audience, I'm confident this movie will do better than Manjummel Boys. Well done, Prithvi and Blessy!
The Simpsons: Lisa's Substitute (1991)
The best Lisa episode of all time!
I remember watching this episode a few decades ago and crying like a baby. I'm 43 now, and the tears still wouldn't stop.
This episode is my favorite from Season 2. The focus is on the relationship between Lisa and Mr. Bergstrom, but Bart does have several laugh-out moments. The relationship between Mrs. Krabappel and Bart is juxtaposed with Lisa's story arc to demonstrate how different the siblings are. Finally, Homer gets some moments to shine in his cute and inimitable way.
Among the scenes that stand out is Lisa's angry 'baboon' outburst and every scene Mr. Bergstorm is in. This episode is highly recommended for Lisa fans and anybody who wishes to experience the good ol' charm this show used to have.
