Let me begin with the mandatory superhero movie disclaimer: The guy who has written this review has no experience of reading these comics. He belongs to that percentage of the audience who are familiar to these characters only through movies and therefore there won’t be any actual comic vs movie comparisons. Doctor strange, Marvel’s new… Continue reading Doctor Strange
Swarna Kaduva
Babu Janardhanan is a script writer who is known for writing films that has contemporary relevance. Even his flop films were based on news that we have seen during those times. With the movie Swarna Kaduva, he along with director Jose Thomas (Jos Thomaas) creates another satire which looks like a fusion of Babu Janardhanan’s… Continue reading Swarna Kaduva
Shivaay
Shivaay is an extremely stretched out hero worshipping movie that moves in a really sluggish pace. It is almost a 3 hour long movie and I can guarantee you that you might feel like you have spent half the day inside the theater. Built around a father-daughter relationship idea, Shivaay just inst a logically convincing… Continue reading Shivaay
Kodi
The promos of Kodi may have had that complete mass appeal to its credit, but when it comes to the cinema it is a little more sensible and sensitive.

Kaashmora

Kaashmora… Continue reading Kaashmora

But the fact that, Karan Johar, the guy who always plays it smartly with melodrama in relationships has shown a timely change in his style, gives… Continue reading Ae Dil Hai Mushkil
Jack Reacher: Never Go Back
When the making of a film becomes dull, the repetitiveness of the content will start to bother you seriously. That’s what has happened with the latest Tom Cruise starrer Jack Reacher Never Go Back. Sequel to the 2012 movie Jack Reacher, this one has a premise that has been used many times and to be… Continue reading Jack Reacher: Never Go Back
Aanandam
I won’t say Aanandam is strictly for those who have done engineering in the last decade or so. And when it comes to the maturity and treatment of the content, it is definitely better than Happy Days to which it got compared when the promos got released. Slightly inspired from the Zoya Akhthar – Farhan… Continue reading Aanandam
