India’s Most Wanted

The climax of the movie India’s Most Wanted has director Raj Kumar Gupta trying to pull off his version of Argo. As some parts of it did work for me, I left the theater with a disappointment that this was a movie that had the potential to be a genuine espionage thriller. The dilution in… Continue reading India’s Most Wanted

De De Pyaar De

At the core of De De Pyaar De, there is a unique and interesting topic of the age gap in marriages. In one scene Ajay Devgn’s 50-year-old Ashish explains his confusion about getting married to a 26-year-old Ayesha as he fears how problematic things will be just after 10 years.

John Wick 3

The third outing of John Wick, John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum has only ambitious plans in its agenda. And in that effort to expand the created reality, the movie manages to push itself further in all aspects.

Kuttimama is a pointless skit comedy that will make you wonder what in that story prompted Gokulam Gopalan to invest money… Continue reading Kuttimama

The agenda of the movie Ishq is somewhere to create awareness about the emotional repercussions of the moral policing practice that has been making news and yet continuing in our state. What is truly impressive about this Anuraj Manohar directorial is the fact that it manages to go beyond the tit for tat justice pattern… Continue reading Ishq

Kee

In the movie Kee, Govind Padmasurya plays the role of a venomous hacker who hacks details from everyone’s phones and laptops and makes life hell for them. And he is presented as this enormous figure, even the villains we saw in Die Hard franchise or James Bond for that matter would get scared. And the… Continue reading Kee

Ayogya

Ayogya, the official Tamil remake of Telugu hit Temper is a movie that plays it for the gallery much like the Telugu version. The common sentiment surrounding the rape cases that rapists should be given death sentence immediately is the agenda of the film and with a sentimental hero worshipping happening at the end, you… Continue reading Ayogya
