Roshni Dinaker’s Bollywood textured My Story is a shallow fragile idea that tries the melodramatic approach and mostly fails. The idea is to nourish the story with vibrant images and make us get the feeling of romance, but the back and forth drama is so cluttered that you just end up waiting for the end… Continue reading My Story

Escape Plan 2: Hades
Watching the second part of Escape Plan, titled Escape Plan 2: Hades, you might end up feeling angry about the laziness with which this movie is made. I am not saying the first one was a great one in terms of craft as it primarily focused on the commercial viability of the Stallon – Schwarzenegger… Continue reading Escape Plan 2: Hades
Sanju
One question that was there in every pre-release interview of Sanju was that whether it will become a PR work for Sanjay Dutt. I personally wasn’t really aware of the specifics of the life of Sanjay Dutt like the details of the Bombay blasts. I obviously knew that he was arrested for having AK 56… Continue reading Sanju
Ocean’s 8
Well, who would have thought that an all-female cast spinoff would happen to a popular franchise like the Oceans series? Well, the times up and the new installment in the franchise, Ocean’s 8 is that entertaining fun movie with relatively less intrigue and more of fun due to the treatment it gets. While the other… Continue reading Ocean’s 8
Incredibles 2

Even though the new one… Continue reading Incredibles 2
Tik Tik Tik
Shakti Soundar Rajan seems to be influenced by Hollywood movies a lot and after a hugely disappointing Miruthan, a zombie thriller, he has come up with another genre familiar to Holly wood, space thriller titled Tik Tik Tik. We were all blown away by the visual quality of the movie’s trailer which made most of… Continue reading Tik Tik Tik
Abrahaminte Santhathikal
The kind of fun a movie like Abrahaminte Santhathikal provides is pretty much similar to what we felt while watching scriptwriter Haneef Adeni’s last work, The Great Father. For me, TGF was an over-stylized thriller that became watchable because of certain thriller elements which sort of made me forget the numerous moments that lacked conviction… Continue reading Abrahaminte Santhathikal
Race 3
First of all, let’s just acknowledge that Race as a franchise wasn’t a phenomenal one. The first two movies had bits which made me do the facepalm and occasionally it became unintentional comedies as well. Even though I wasn’t a fan of those films, I would definitely say they were watchable in a fun way.… Continue reading Race 3
