Life on Our Planet [2023] - My Review and Interesting Notes on Evolution

Review:   This is probably the only series that I’ve watched at 1.5x speed and yet it felt like a normal one. Thankfully, the narrator was Morgan Freeman else it would’ve been a very boring series altogether for its sluggish storytelling. Though it still felt like attending a biology class for the most part, the creators tried their level best to make it as interesting as possible by adding some introduction BGMs with fights within the species and how they evolved which added value to the storytelling. The creators intentionally presented it in a non-linear way assuming to make it interesting but it only causes confusion since human brains are not designed to think millions of years back & forth it feels like Steven Spielberg likes the dinosaurs so much for his success depends on it so he keeps going back to the dinosaurs period again & again. I was expecting some theory & visuals of how human life was created & evolved but nothing related was shown. Overall, it’s ...

The Platform 2 Movie Reviewed / Explained

I got to watch the 2nd part of The Platform on Netflix today and below is my short review & explanation from my perspective (spoilers ahead): Just like the first part, there are a lot of metaphors and answers to some of the questions from the first part too. The film starts off with the plot known to the prisoners and just like in the real world, there are revolutionist groups formed. They fight against each other throughout the movie which makes this part a bit boring for me. Still, fortunately, the makers take us through the journey of the protagonist/female/heroine who first tries to abide by the rules but then notices how doing so doesn’t help her much, the transition happens when she meets different characters in the film. We’re shown how she becomes rebellious to go against the system at last and this time we’re shown how the prisoners have advanced themselves to find a hack to become conscious when the prison admins clean up the space by the end of every month and that’s whe...
