Films70: I kept on watching #LoopLapeta just because the way it was shot & edited was very different.
What a fun ride movie.
Editing style reminded me of @edgarwright , which was mostly closeups and flashy cuts.
Enjoyed a lot.@NetflixIndia #AkashBhatia @taapsee @TahirRajBhasin— Vinay Kumar Sahu (@vinay_ku_sahu) February 4, 2022
