Qalb, the third movie directed by Sajid Yahiya, is basically yet another adaptation of the classic Romeo and Juliet template. I can agree with the fact that romance can be extremely cheesy for those involved in it. But even cheesiness has that guilty pleasure relatability that makes those movies hits. But in the case of… Continue reading Qalb Review | Gen Z Talks the Boomer Language in This Cringe-Fest Romeo and Juliet

Abraham Ozler Review | A Mixed-Bag Thriller With Sporadic Moments of Excitement
Abraham Ozler, the new thriller directed by Midhun Manuel Thomas, which pretty much marks a comeback of Jayaram, is a mixed-bag thriller that tries really hard to work on its generic beats. While Midhun may have said in the promotional interviews that the movie isn’t something similar to Anjaam Paathiraa, as a viewer, you can… Continue reading Abraham Ozler Review | A Mixed-Bag Thriller With Sporadic Moments of Excitement
Raastha Review | Aneesh Anwar’s Film Is a Forced and Stretched-Out Survival Drama
The survival drama format is always dependent on the backdrop of the main characters and the way they are led to that scenario. The issue with the new Aneesh Anwar film Raastha, which tries out a mini Aadu Jeevitham in its script is that it just can’t develop something that looks organic on screen. With… Continue reading Raastha Review | Aneesh Anwar’s Film Is a Forced and Stretched-Out Survival Drama
Aattam Review | Anand Ekarshi’s Social Critique Confidently Explores the Grey
Ever since the Me Too movement happened and women started calling out their abusers, there have been these discussions around the ones who spoke out, tarnishing their image and questioning their integrity. While on the periphery, all those questions felt sensible, if you listen to those questions carefully, you can sense that layer of judgment… Continue reading Aattam Review | Anand Ekarshi’s Social Critique Confidently Explores the Grey
Queen Elizabeth Review | Radiating Positivity in the Most Shallow and Cliched Manner
Queen Elizabeth, starring Meera Jasmine feels more like a movie that adores the nostalgic cliches of scriptwriting. The angry and insensitive leading lady transforming into someone who is empathetic and caring is a trope we have seen in many films like Kal Hona Ho, The Proposal (Its adaptation My Boss), etc. Arjun T Sathyan, who… Continue reading Queen Elizabeth Review | Radiating Positivity in the Most Shallow and Cliched Manner
Neru Review | An Emotional Courtroom Drama With Convenient Twists and Turns
If you look at this year’s Onam release RDX, we all know that the scene that showed the villains hurting that baby had a significant role in making the viewer root for the heroes. If you take out that scene from that movie, it would have been a huge task for the makers to keep… Continue reading Neru Review | An Emotional Courtroom Drama With Convenient Twists and Turns
Thaal Review | This Ginger-Cringe College Drama Has the Potential to Give You Trauma
In the hands of a good director and writer, the latest movie Thaal, starring Anson Paul and Aradhya Ann, might have at least been a problematic yet disturbing film about selfless love. Sadly, under the direction of Rajasaagar and written by Dr. G Kishor, this movie is a horrendously cheesy and melodramatic love story that… Continue reading Thaal Review | This Ginger-Cringe College Drama Has the Potential to Give You Trauma
Bullet Diaries Review | Yet Another Friday, Yet Another Dhyan Sreenivasan Debacle
Written and directed by Santhosh Mandoor, Bullet Diaries, starring Dhyan Sreenivasan, is a lazy drama that just wants to utilize the love for Bullet on a very peripheral level. With the drama in the story getting unnecessarily stretched out with pointless deviations, just to make the movie’s length roughly two hours, Bullet Diaries is a… Continue reading Bullet Diaries Review | Yet Another Friday, Yet Another Dhyan Sreenivasan Debacle
