After the disastrous outing of Geethaanjali (which took characters from the classic Manichithrathazhu) my hopes on Mannar Mathai Speaking 2 wasn’t that high. May be because of that I didn’t felt the movie as a boring one. The second part of Mannar Mathai Speaking (third one in the franchise) directed by Mamas is a watchable… Continue reading Mannar Mathai Speaking 2

Salala Mobiles
First of all a big thanks to Jacob Gregory for offering some moments of laughter with his natural facial expressions and voice modulation. If he was not there, Salala Mobiles would have easily became a tough competitor for Mohanlal’s Vamanapuram Bus route. Because in both films people are still searching for the reason why the… Continue reading Salala Mobiles
The Legend of Hercules
When the known legend is made as a film, you cant really blame it for being repetitive. But the one thing we all look forward to see in such cases is the variety in presentation and the overall increase in quality of the product. The latest Hercules movie, The Legend of Hercules is a disappointing… Continue reading The Legend of Hercules
Carrie
Carrie is a really underwhelming horror thriller that just cant scare you with its two hour long flawed attempt to create something interesting. Even with the supernatural powers in the content, this dark script cant create a wave of excitement at any point of time. The story revolves around the life of Carrie White who… Continue reading Carrie
American Hustle
The first shot of the movie American Hustle shows us the fat belly of Christian Bale which itself will make you do that muted “wow” thing appreciating the commitment of the actor. When I look at the movie totally, its more of a performance exhibition with solidly written characters. If you ask me whether I… Continue reading American Hustle
The Wolf of Wall Street
Based on the true story of Jordan Belfort , the latest movie The Wolf of Wall Street from Martin Scorsese – Leonardo DiCaprio combo is more of a fun ride about the stock broker turned motivational speaker. With very less compromise made in terms of visualising the madness (may be exaggerated – I wasn’t there… Continue reading The Wolf of Wall Street
Dedh Ishqiya
Quirky is what they said and quirky it is to the core. Abhishek Choubey’s Dedh Ishqiya is a worthy successor that offers all the raw fun you expect from the franchise. The canvas is slightly bigger this time and they have squeezed out every bit of it in every aspect. All those hilarious takes on… Continue reading Dedh Ishqiya
Veeram
Old wine in old bottle: Ajith’s latest movie Veeram is that recreation of those films which worked 10 years back. Wafer thin story line comprising of plastic sentiments, awkward humor and a whole lot of dusty fights to showcase the guts of our macho hero. Apart from some Santhanam jokes and stylized visualization of rough… Continue reading Veeram
