Zero from Anand L Rai is in fact a very Anand L Rai film. It is almost like how Anand L Rai and his writer Himanshu Sharma would approach if the idea of Martian was given to them. But then that’s the problem. We need masala, songs and heartbreak in such heavy dosage that when… Continue reading Zero
Thattumpurath Achuthan
It is so disheartening to realize that a director like Lal Jose can’t really sense the sensibility of an evolved audience while choosing a script. Thattumpurath Achuthan is one movie that would have sounded as an average entertainer even if it was made a decade ago. Depending too much on the dialogue jokes, this Sindhuraj… Continue reading Thattumpurath Achuthan
Pretham 2
Pretham was a film that sort of utilized the relatively unfamiliar mentalist concept into a horror story and gave us a fun film. When it comes to Pretham 2, there isn’t much of a change in the structure of the movie. But the witty dialogue bits were kind of enough to hold our interest in… Continue reading Pretham 2
Ente Ummante Peru
Ente Ummante Peru starring Tovino Thomas and Urvashi has a good intent at its core. But the plot here isn’t really evolving in an exciting way. It is almost like the writers deliberately converted it into 2 hour plus movie to make it feel like a commercial movie. The rapport between Hameed and Aysha in… Continue reading Ente Ummante Peru
Njan Prakashan
Njan Prakashan is definitely that entertainer movie that you won’t regret watching from the theatre. Yes, it is a template that we have seen in many of Sathyan Anthikkad’s movies were an irresponsible young hero evolves to become a responsible man. But we have Fahadh Faasil becoming Prakashan effortlessly and Sreenivasan writing witty moments that… Continue reading Njan Prakashan
Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse
At a time conceptually the Superhero movies are sort of facing a burnout scenario because of the abundance of it, something like Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse is a really welcoming change one would want to see. Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse has everything you get in a typical Spider-man movie and plus it is pretty neo… Continue reading Spider-man: Into the Spider-Verse
Aquaman
Aquaman coming from the DC extended universe is definitely better than the loud and messy Justice League. But for my personal taste, this movie is still not something that can put DC back in the game. From templatescript to the kind of set pieces for which DC has got criticized previously,there are a lot of… Continue reading Aquaman
Odiyan
Odiyan should be an MBA subject and VA Shrikumar Menon should give the people in places like IIM a class on how to make buzz around something that doesn’t have anything appreciable to its credit. With a clichéd plot getting stretched out with so much predictable and outdated elements, Odiyan for its runtime is tedious.… Continue reading Odiyan
