Passengers

Approaching the latest Jennifer Lawrence – Chris Pratt movie Passengers as a romantic film would be a better idea if you want to enjoy it. Because of the initial responses I had to hear from a few sources, I was a bit skeptical about the film. But when I saw Passengers, it wasn’t that boring… Continue reading Passengers

Allied

Ace director Robert Zemeckis’s latest film Allied is a slowly paced love story that uses the attire of a spy thriller. The realistic tempo of the narrative gives an impressive level of intrigue to the film.

With an engagingly paced screenplay getting the right mix of music and wits, Moana offers a… Continue reading Moana

Let me begin with the mandatory superhero movie disclaimer: The guy who has written this review has no experience of reading these comics. He belongs to that percentage of the audience who are familiar to these characters only through movies and therefore there won’t be any actual comic vs movie comparisons. Doctor strange, Marvel’s new… Continue reading Doctor Strange

When the making of a film becomes dull, the repetitiveness of the content will start to bother you seriously. That’s what has happened with the latest Tom Cruise starrer Jack Reacher Never Go Back. Sequel to the 2012 movie Jack Reacher, this one has a premise that has been used many times and to be… Continue reading Jack Reacher: Never Go Back
