In a way Masss or Massu is probably the least funny Venkat Prabhu movie. Yes it does have quite a bit of humour in the typical VP style, but the basic content somewhere is hanging over certain clichéd emotions that make the movie’s story structure not so exciting. Spoiler alert for those who are keen… Continue reading Masss

Tanu Weds Manu Returns
Very rarely we get to see sequels that are better than the first. I personally felt Tanu Weds Manu as a just about okay film and this time in the form of Tanu Weds Manu Returns, Anand L Rai has come up with a sequel that apparently looks much more entertaining than the first part.… Continue reading Tanu Weds Manu Returns
Kumbasaaram
Much like his last movie Zachariahyude Garbhinikal, which received the state award in various categories, Aneesh Anwar’s latest movie Kumbasaaram is also a deeply emotional journey. Dilemma of human mind seems to be something that fascinates the writer in Aneesh, if it was the four pregnant women’s conflicts last time, this time the focus goes… Continue reading Kumbasaaram
Bombay Velvet
Just like he said in an interview recently, the story of Anurag Kashyap’s Bombay Velvet is basically a simple love story that happens in a kind of lawless gangster ruled Bombay/Mumbai. This based on true story stuff has a really interesting making that doesn’t try to look compromised in terms of production values and the… Continue reading Bombay Velvet
Nee Na
Dennis and Abhirami were two characters I liked from the movie Summer in Bethlehem and the main reason was the excellent portrayal by the actors which made those characters lovable. The basic problem with the movie Nee- Na is that the actors who do the crucial roles in this movie can’t make their characters look… Continue reading Nee Na
Lailaa O Lailaa
From the first five minutes of the movie Lailaa O Lailaa, you will surely identify the fact that the writer of the movie has something to do with the recent Bollywood blockbuster Bang Bang. Suresh Nair’s latest script directed by veteran Joshiy is a movie that definitely demands a much grander presentation as its story… Continue reading Lailaa O Lailaa
Piku
Piku is a rare movie without a doubt as it has “motion” driving every emotional thing around it. Wrote around some hilariously realistic arguments (quarrels to be precise) between characters with such individuality, latest movie from Shoojit Sircar leaves you in a happy mood reliving every fun moment and emotional attachment you saw in that… Continue reading Piku
Oru Second Class Yathra
Except for the very few humorous counter dialogues from Chemban Vinod Jose, the latest movie Oru Second Class Yathra is largely clichéd and only uses the stereotypes. The movie almost looks like an idea they created to include humor and that makes the story of this cinema quite dull and cheesy on screen. With a… Continue reading Oru Second Class Yathra
