The decision of the Russo brothers to end infinity war on that heart breaking note was indeed a brave one that almost nobody saw coming. And the new one, Avengers: Endgame is a bigger brave move from the director duo that gave a humanistic approach to the MCU. Avengers: Endgame is nothing short of brilliant… Continue reading Avengers: Endgame

Oru Yamandan Premakadha
There is a formula one can sense in both the scripts by Vishnu Unnikrishnan and Bibin George. The new Dulquer Salmaan movie Oru Yamandan Premakadha scripted by the duo is no different from that formula of soaking a very basic story in humor. But what is good about that formula is that it still doesn’t… Continue reading Oru Yamandan Premakadha
The Curse of La Llorona
The structure of the new Conjuring spin-off The Curse of the Weeping Woman/ The Curse of La Llorona is almost like a template of any horror movie. The lazily written film directed by Michael Chaves only has jump scares to its credit and with typical character behavior and certain dialogues landing up as unintentional comedy… Continue reading The Curse of La Llorona
Kalank

Whether a movie like Madhuraraja would work for you or not depends on two factors. One, if… Continue reading MadhuraRaja
Romeo Akbar Walter RAW
In one scene, the RAW chief played by Jackie Shroff tells John Abraham’s Romeo about how RAW functions and he says they will never communicate with their agent in the normal manner and the dialogues will be always indirect through metaphors and other means. But what happens after that in RAW – Romeo Akbar Walter… Continue reading Romeo Akbar Walter RAW
Shazam!
Remember the kind of fun something like Deadpool offered through its irreverent humor? Shazam from DC has that in it and that too in a refreshing way. Even the irreverent comedy has become slightly formulaic and to be honest Shazam wasn’t really having that feeling. With humor in abundance along with humanizing characters, Shazam was… Continue reading Shazam!
