The lack of a good director is evident in every visual of the movie Shikhamani. I am not saying the script is great or something. But what strikes the most in this dull thriller is the carelessness of the director. A least possible plot gets narrated in the most predictable way and there is nothing… Continue reading Shikhamani
Baaghi
In Baaghi, except for Sunil Grover everyone else is only interested in being a stunt man and there is no significance for acting. Copied from the Telugu movie Varsham with extra dosage of Karate Kid, this Sabbir Khan movie is boring because of the lackluster content. With only visual beauty of certain locations helping the… Continue reading Baaghi
Leela
Large number of people was sort of questioning the lack of a story in Leela when the movie finished. Well I guess none of them have taken an effort to read the short story that came in Mathrubhumi. While the short story narrated the entire proceedings through the eyes of Pillechan, the movie Leela shows… Continue reading Leela
Fan
The thing with SRK’s new movie Fan was that we weren’t expecting something like his last few releases which pretty much focused on creating wafer thin storylines with dialogue jokes. The poster excited me, teaser was pretty much interesting. But after seeing certain action sequences in the trailer of Fan, the movie enthusiast in me… Continue reading Fan
Theri
Customized justice is a theme that Atlee’s guru Shankar has always used in his movies and with Theri Atlee tries to use that theme in an entertaining way. The story and plot development isn’t necessarily amusing or completely surprising. But the level of simplicity in character equations and the gradual likeability of the whole story… Continue reading Theri
The Jungle Book
Well I belong to that generation of the audience who had a childhood watching The Jungle Book on Doordarshan. So the memories are a little vague, but the nostalgia is quite heavy. It is always a bit difficult to create a movie from a story that we have seen as TV episodes. Jon Favreau who… Continue reading The Jungle Book
Jacobinte Swargarajyam
It is a story based on the life of director Vineeth Sreenivasan’s close friend, so I can’t really say that the story is too much of a fiction. Jacobinte Swargarajyam, the fourth movie from Vineeth Sreenivasan works nicely as a feel good entertainer. It isn’t over the top at any point, but at the same… Continue reading Jacobinte Swargarajyam
King Liar
King Liar celebrates the reunion of the epic combo Siddique- Lal. But the movie doesn’t really generate the feel we expect when both of them combines for a project. The movie does offer you a good amount of humor, but that’s strictly because of the dialogues which were written by Bipin Chandran. With the plot… Continue reading King Liar
