One Night In Miami Review - " Potent, Simple, Thought Provoking and Powerful"



 

One Night In Miami is a classic story of four legendary friends meeting together and in just one night making some strange decision to change the world for good. It also the journey of Cassius Clay becoming Muhammad Ali and why black people in America were opting for Islam rather than staying Christian. It also portrays the 1960s Racism ridden society where Negros were still not allowed to enter any white people's house. That Famous Night of 1964 when Cassius Clay became the world champion and spent the night with his friends Malcolm X, Sam Cooke and Jim Brown. The story revolves around that one night and how it changed the thought process of all three friends. Potent but nuanced direction (a great debut by Regina King).  Smart and witty screenplay by Kemp Powers.  Kingsley Ben-Adir as Malcolm X, Eli Gore as Cassius Clay, Aldis Hodge as Jim Brown, and Leslie Odom Jr.as Sam Cooke all deeply inhabit their characters.

FAUG - Feerless And United Guards " Dull, Rusty and Not ready for launch" On Day one (REVIEW)

  FAUG Fearless and United – Guards is now available on the play store and I can download and play it. Being an Indian I won’t be biased while reviewing this game. It is released on 26 th January as it's India’s and this game is based on our Indian Army. Gamewise this is a announced as a replacement of PUBG and thus is name is kind of similar but in-game its different, it has a campaign mode which is unlike most battle royale games including PUBG. As an avid PC gamer myself I don’t play many games on mobile but this one felt dull and rusty on day one. Gameplay mechanics kind of copied and the Graphics is not top notched. Overall it's just another shooting game with some other melee weapons famous in India and it is inspired by our Indian Army so the missions are related to it. Team Deathmatch mode and battle royale mode is still not available but the campaign mode can be played.   My RATINGS FOR FAUG is 5/10.
