Assassin’s Creed

I have never played the game version of Assassin’s Creed, but have heard a lot of positive feedback from those who are in to gaming. The plot of the game was interesting enough to create an interactive experience like gaming. But when it comes to the movie the wafer thin idea and its presentation look… Continue reading Assassin’s Creed

Hacksaw Ridge

The scale of the movie Hacksaw Ridge is something that could definitely change your perception of looking at wars. Mel Gibson’s utterly uncompromised making takes this movie to a different level of presentation of war violence and I had tears in my eyes towards those climax portions. Based on the true story of Desmond Doss,… Continue reading Hacksaw Ridge

Veera Sivaji

I kind of got confused when I entered the theater to watch the latest Vikram Prabhu movie Veera Sivaji. It had the same producer of Kaththi Sandai and I was definitely not in a mood to bare a second of that film. Gods heard me and after the production house’s signature film, came the title… Continue reading Veera Sivaji

Kaththi Sandai

The film industry and the Tamil Nadu politics are very closely associated.

Rogue One

Let me begin with a long disclaimer on my views on the whole Star Wars franchise first, as “Scholars” of the franchise may thrash this review. I never had the opportunity to watch these films in my childhood as this movie was not there in my 16 channel cable TV connection. So I watched the… Continue reading Rogue One

Marupadi

Instead of addressing the issue of harassment against women, the movie Marupadi directed by V M Vinu is somewhat exploiting the contemporary relevance of the theme. Repeating the used out theme of fraud drug case and subsequent struggle with all the clichés and exaggerations of those 80’s films, Marupadi simply doesn’t have the juice in… Continue reading Marupadi

Kahaani 2

It is always a tough task to live up to the expectations of a well made movie when you try to make a franchise sequel to it. With Kahaani 2, Sujoy Ghosh tries to pitch another thrilling story in a real world scenario. While the treatment is much similar to the previous movie, the script… Continue reading Kahaani 2
