Searching (2018)

Usually I keep on searching for movies over the internet for a week and then watch the movie which I shortlist after applying my personal filter criteria as below. 

😀 Good Story line 

👉Mystery
👉Mind bending 
👉Motivating/ Inspiring 
 👉Lifting up when feeling low
 👉Fight movies 

😀 IMDb Rating above 6.7

In the evening, I was searching movie and found movie SEARCHING. As both the criteria and the genres were matching, I streamed Searching on Netflix. 





It will get you to social media. Face time, chat, Instagram, Facebook, tumbler, bank transfer etc. you will be exposed more to it. 

I have always have had a realization that having many friends on social media does not mean that these friends would be the real ones in need. The story subtly brings it to the audience and I firmly believe it now. 

However, the same social media friends will take mileage and post how deeply they are connected or how sad they are for you.  

Detailing is something which is so important because the devil lies in the detail. 

Margot's father had tried to capture every details of her missing daughter by going through the history of her browsing the internet and he is also in a shock to feel that he was also not so close to her with whom Margot could share her mind. 

A gripping story line which is not to be missed from beginning to end. May be it will improve our skill to trace out things on internet. 
 
This movie shows that in the modern day when we are living in a world completely controlled and owned by the internet, we have social media accounts, we even communicate with our family members on FaceTime WhatsApp. 

We know that there are pros & cons of internet. Stalking is a bad thing but this movie also shows that how using internet and all the apps in such meaningful ways. Margot having the presence all over the social media actually helped her father to reach out to the whereabout of his daughter is something that has been highlighted in a great way. It shows that there are use of technology -  If there is a bane there is boon as well. 

Howsoever, the efforts may be to remove all the trails leading to crime committed, only one tiny trace which is left unattended blows off the cover and the truth is revealed. 

That detailing reveals what happened to Margot. Kudos to her father who runs from pillar to post to find what happened and why it happened. 

Is internet a necessary evil? Maybe yes or maybe no; but overall the movie is very very good.

In the Line of Duty: The Untold Heroism of Costao Fernandes

The First Cinematic Masterpiece of 2025 Has Quietly Arrived — And It Deserves Your Attention The year may still be young, but Coasta’s Story has already staked its claim as one of 2025’s most powerful cinematic offerings. Released quietly on ZEE5, this deeply moving film chronicles the life of Customs Officer Costao Fernandes — a man whose unwavering commitment to duty came at a tremendous personal cost. Brought to life with quiet brilliance by Nawazuddin Siddiqui, this isn't just a film; it's a salute to all those who fight silent battles in the shadows of bureaucracy and corruption. “Not all heroes wear uniforms in battle — some wear them in silence, carrying the weight of integrity.” In a country where the system is often criticized for being slow, flawed, or unjust, Coasta’s Story reminds us of the unsung heroes who continue to keep that very system standing. The film doesn’t resort to melodrama or hyperbole; instead, it leans into emotional honesty. It offers a raw ...

Aircraft vs High-Speed Trains: A Comparison

Modern jet aircraft can travel at speeds of up to 1,000 km/h. However, in commercial operations, planes usually fly at speeds between 500 km/h to 800 km/h, as speed is balanced against fuel consumption. On the other hand, high-speed trains typically reach a maximum of 360 km/h, which is roughly one-third the speed of aircraft. Despite this, trains are still highly competitive. Why is that? What Makes Aircraft “Slow”? Although aircraft travel faster in the air, several factors make their overall journey time longer: 1. Airport Location Airports are usually located outside city centers due to their large space requirements—often spanning several square kilometers. Reaching the airport typically takes around 60 minutes or more. Train stations, in contrast, are usually located in the heart of cities. Even in space-constrained urban areas, train stations can be built underground, making them far more accessible. As a result, the travel time to and from train stations is significantly shorte...
