The latest Jason Statham movie Mechanic Resurrection is like an amateur compilation of most of Statham’s hero centric films. Coming as a sequel to the 2011 movie The Mechanic, this one has no real juice in the story and ultimately it’s the old school formula of kidnap, blackmail and revenge. The developments in Mechanic Resurrection… Continue reading Mechanic Resurrection
A Flying Jatt
A Flying Jatt directed by choreographer turned director Remo D’Souza is a funny film in my opinion. Not just because it has certain moments of actual comedy, but even when it tries to be serious you somewhere giggle a bit at the lameness of the narrative. With all the clichés in the world about a… Continue reading A Flying Jatt
Pinneyum
Well he is a legendary director and this was my first experience of watching an Adoor Gopalakrishnan movie from a theater. Pinneyum directed by Adoor Gopalakrishna with Dileep and Kavya Madhavan in the lead role is a very poorly executed movie. The movie perhaps has the most awkward dialogue delivery in the recent past and… Continue reading Pinneyum
Perariyathavar
The movie Perariyathavar has received the best film award in the Environment Conservation/ Preservation category. And it deserves to be appreciated for that aspect of the movie. The movie is looking in to the lives of those under privileged people who don’t have a home or a proper job. And in that journey, Dr. Biju… Continue reading Perariyathavar
Mohenjo Daro

But still the latest Ashutosh Gowariker film’s main drawback is its lack of a surprising story. From Gladiator to… Continue reading Mohenjo Daro
Rustom
Rustom is based on the famous Nanavati case which had a certain sensation at that time due to its media coverage. But this movie directed by Tinu Suresh Desai has no flare to its credit. For a large chunk of its unnecessarily elaborate runtime, the movie looks like those films made at the time the… Continue reading Rustom
IDI
If it was an out and out spoof film, IDI from Sajid Yahiya would have worked wonderfully as an entertainer filled with laughable moments. But the problem with IDI in my opinion was that it tried to become another Singham with quirks in the narrative. When a movie takes its plot seriously, it is difficult… Continue reading IDI
Pretham
When you look at the extent to which mentalism gets used in the movie Pretham, there will be this obvious questions of practicality as the movie utilizes it in very crucial areas. Apart from that factor, the latest Ranjith Sankar movie Pretham is an interesting watch. With humour enriched in almost every scene, Ranjith Sankar… Continue reading Pretham
