Physics has always stayed away from Rohit Shetty’s movies, and so I was very cautious to put my thinking cap in the dustbin before entering the theater.

Bloody Beggar Review | An Overdone, Wacky Comedy That Fails to Utilize Its Premise
The latest Kavin starrer Bloody Beggar, directed by Sivabalan Muthukumar and produced by director Nelson, is a wacky black comedy that fails to utilize its unique premise due to all these contrasting themes and treatments one gets to see in it. The film sort of dangles between being a black comedy to being a sentimental… Continue reading Bloody Beggar Review | An Overdone, Wacky Comedy That Fails to Utilize Its Premise
Amaran Review | A Biopic That Documents the Journey in a Fairly Engaging Way
The one thing that makes the audience root for the characters in the latest Sivakarthikeyan starrer Amaran is the love story of Major Mukund Varadarajan and his wife, Rebecca Varghese. The army part of the story, which may have consumed the bulkier chunk of the budget, is largely a documentation of the soldier’s life.

Do Patti Review | Ekta Kapoor Serial-Like Sensibilities but on a Bigger Budget
Kanika Dhillon, the writer and co-producer of the new Netflix film Do Patti, is someone who has written some of the interesting female characters in the last decade or so in movies like Manmarziyan and Judgemental Hai Kya.

Pallotty 90’s Kids Review | A Passable Nostalgia Package With Two Standout Performers
Pallotty 90’s Kids, the latest Malayalam kids’ film presented by Lijo Jose Pellissery and directed by Jithin Raj, is a pretty simplistic take on friendship, and the highlight of the movie is the terrific performances of the two kids, Davinchi Santhosh and Neeraj Krishna, who shouldered this film with their brimming energy.

Thrayam Review | A Shoddy Hyper-Linking Thriller That Can Mess With Your Temper
The movie Thrayam starts with the iconic quote by Quentin Tarantino – I didn’t go to film school. I went to films. And then there is one more quote from Udhayabhanu, the lead character of Udhayananu Thaaram. The movie here was so outdated that you might wonder which one was the last film the, Sanjith… Continue reading Thrayam Review | A Shoddy Hyper-Linking Thriller That Can Mess With Your Temper
