Kaala, the new series from Bejoy Nambiar, is dealing with the enormous task of presenting a story that has happened over multiple decades. It is an ambitious attempt to pull off a subject that needs to have conviction. In totality, I was really impressed by the way Bejoy and his team of writers managed to… Continue reading Kaala Review | A Consistently Engaging Thriller With an Impressive Character Pool

Bambai Meri Jaan Review | Guns Overshadow Grey in This Long Format D Company Story
Dawood Ibrahim, the world that built him and the world that remained after his prime, has always been a fascination for movie makers. Multiple versions of the same story, spinoff-like movies from the perspectives of characters in that world, etc., have come as movies in the past. The latest addition to that is the new… Continue reading Bambai Meri Jaan Review | Guns Overshadow Grey in This Long Format D Company Story
Scam 2003: The Telgi Story Review | Gagan Dev Riar Is Terrific in This Spiritual Sequel That Is Short on Panache
It was obvious that when they announced a sequel to Scam 1992, there would be comparisons with the original as the bar set by the Harshad Mehta story was phenomenally high. And frankly, that is precisely the problem you see in Scam 2003: The Telgi Story. It maintains the visual textures, terrific casting choices, and… Continue reading Scam 2003: The Telgi Story Review | Gagan Dev Riar Is Terrific in This Spiritual Sequel That Is Short on Panache

One Piece, the new live-action version of Eiichiro Oda’s Manga series available on Netflix, had created curiosity in my head as I was interested in knowing how they have managed to recreate the eccentric visual sensibilities usually associated with Manga anime series.

Taali Review | This Underwhelming Biopic Starring Sushmita Sen Is a Wasted Opportunity

For example, they would choose not to show an antenna setting scene to establish it is the ’90s. The reason why… Continue reading Taali Review | This Underwhelming Biopic Starring Sushmita Sen Is a Wasted Opportunity
Mathagam Part 1 Review | A Discretely Promising Thriller That Shouldn’t Have Got Split
Let me begin by saying I have an issue with the Part 1-Part 2 releasing strategy of some of the Hotstar specials. The problem is that it almost feels like the projector got damaged at the interval of a seemingly exciting thriller, and you will have to wait for months to know what happened after… Continue reading Mathagam Part 1 Review | A Discretely Promising Thriller That Shouldn’t Have Got Split
Guns & Gulaabs Review | Despite the Initial Sluggishness, Raj and DK Manage to Land Their Black Comedy Smoothly
Unlike the other creations of Raj & DK, their first collaboration with Netflix, Guns & Gulaabs, takes way too much time to enter that space which you generally associate with their creations. For almost the first 4 episodes of the series, my expectations about the series were going down as the narrative felt very disjoint… Continue reading Guns & Gulaabs Review | Despite the Initial Sluggishness, Raj and DK Manage to Land Their Black Comedy Smoothly
Kohrra Review | A Social Critique With the Flesh and Bones of an Intriguing Thriller
Kohrra, the new Netflix crime thriller series, is one of those thrillers that starts off as a whodunit and then slowly transitions into that character exploration tale which eventually takes the shape of a social critique. Made by Clean Slate Filmz and co-created by Paatal Lok fame Sudip Sharma, who also wrote Udta Punjab, the… Continue reading Kohrra Review | A Social Critique With the Flesh and Bones of an Intriguing Thriller
