Queen

The women empowerment – revenge theme has been getting made over and over in the last few years and last year itself Bollywood sort of faced a burn out of this theme. The Malayalam film Queen is also an addition to the list and unfortunately it isn’t that gripping. Those of you who have not… Continue reading Queen

Diwanjimoola Grand Prix

The always real Siddique and the uniquely hilarious Vinayakan are the two factors that make an extremely predictable Diwanjimoola Grand Prix a non boring watch. With an assembled story that tries to add very less to make it look unique, Diwanjimoola Grand Prix manages to shift its gears only in the last quarter and thus… Continue reading Diwanjimoola Grand Prix
