The Jungle Book

Well I belong to that generation of the audience who had a childhood watching The Jungle Book on Doordarshan. So the memories are a little vague, but the nostalgia is quite heavy. It is always a bit difficult to create a movie from a story that we have seen as TV episodes. Jon Favreau who… Continue reading The Jungle Book

Kung Fu Panda 3

I had a really good laugh watching the latest Kung Fu Panda 3.

Deadpool, the movie self trolls, mocks the typical superhero movies and thus becomes an atypical superhero movie with hell a lot of adultery that will make you laugh out loud. Well I know you guys have sensed it from the trailers, but still an introduction is customary. The first part of the franchise may not… Continue reading Deadpool
