Luka Chuppi directed by Laxman Utekar is a breezy entertainer that won’t annoy you for sure. Watching the trailer of the film, I thought it would be about the difficulties of a couple who wants to hide their live-in relationship status in a conservative society and to my surprise, it was slightly different from that.… Continue reading Luka Chuppi
An International Local Story
If any of you have plans to go for the movie An International Local Story even if you read this particular review, I have information for you. In the first 15 minutes of the movie, you will see a diamond episode set in Malaysia (shot in Kochi). That subplot has nothing to do with the… Continue reading An International Local Story
Total Dhamaal
No brainer comedies are indeed a genre of films and we have enjoyed films like Andaaz Apna Apna and even the first part of the Dhamaal franchise. While the above-mentioned movies had crisp writing and great performances, the new Indra Kumar movie Total Dhamaal is a perfect example of how lazy writing can make a… Continue reading Total Dhamaal
Vaarikkuzhiyile Kolapathakam

And to an extent, there are a lot of humor bits that made me laugh or giggle. But the issue with the movie is the climax and… Continue reading Mr. & Ms. Rowdy
Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel
In the movie Mr. Fraud, there is a scene where a bunch of goons verbally praise the entry of the hero before getting beaten up by him. B Unnikrishnan is someone who likes to glorify his heroes verbally and because of his grip over the language, he always manages to make it less like a… Continue reading Kodathi Samaksham Balan Vakeel
Dev
Sitting through the excruciatingly painful Karthi movie Dev, I was wondering what was it in the script that excited Karthi to commit to this movie. Dev is one of those films where I felt I should show this to the characters in the movie (hypothetical scenario) and show them how ridiculous and stupid they are… Continue reading Dev
June
June directed by Ahammed Kabeer is easily one feel good entertainer which isn’t entirely a typical one looking at the way it approaches many aspects. Rajisha Vijayan is at the center of the action and her endearing portrayal of June makes this movie an engaging coming of age drama despite its flaws in the slightly… Continue reading June
