ShadowShadow Review

First things first! Before we dissect the film, discuss its merits and demerits, discuss whether it worked or not and offer reasons, let's salute the grit, determination, willpower and courage of Nasser Khan, who enacts the role of the protagonist in
SikandarSikandar Review

There have been path-breaking films on the plight of children. Children affected by poverty/conflict. Films like The Children of Heaven, turtles can fly and city of god have left an indelible impression on millions of minds. These films, says director Piyush
Life PartnerLife Partner Review

A few questions cross your mind when you're about to watch Life Partner...Haven't I watched something like this in the past? Isn't it getting repetitive?Haven't I had enough of mindless potboilers?What's Rumy Jaffery going to serve now? A rehash of what
KamineyKaminey Review

Dhan Te Nan. Vishal Bhardwaj pays homage to cinema of yore and that's reason enough to go out and grab tickets for one of the most keenly anticipated films of our times. A few monsoons ago, Farah Khan paid homage to
Chal ChaleinChal Chalein Review

Making an effective film that makes a social statement is a task which not many are able to master. It either creates ripples like Taare Zameen Par or goes horribly wrong. Chal Chalein attempts to tackle a new and interesting topic
Teree SangTeree Sang Review

Two observations before I 'dissect' Teree Sang... One, it's often said that veterans find it extremely difficult to change with times, adapt to new-age cinema. Two, it's often said that a capable director has the potential to
AgyaatAgyaat Review

Ram Gopal Varma thinks differently. This time too the maverick film-maker defies the stereotype and takes to the dense forests of Sri Lanka to meet an 'unknown' force. But let's clear the misconception at the very start. Agyaat is no supernatural
Love Aaj KalLove Aaj Kal Review

Come to think of it, if the film carries the 'burden' of humungous expectations, it's imperative that it goes beyond those expectations. The reaction after watching the film has to be similar to a child who has laid his hands on
Perfect MismatchPerfect Mismatch - Review

Meet the Fockers. Oops... Meet Mr. Patel and Mr. Bhalla. They have a problem with each other. One is a Gujarati, the other is a Punjabi. Agreed, there are people who don't believe in marrying outside their community, but stories like
LuckLuck - Review

Fasten your seat belts and get ready for hardcore stunts and thrills, Hollywood ishtyle. Come to think of it, Bollywood hasn't churned out stylised action movies as regularly as it churns out comedies and rom-coms. There's a vacuum for sure. But
Dekh Bhai DekhDekh Bhai Dekh Review

Dekh Bhai Dekh is a twisted tale of greed, cunning and destiny assembled around a rather crude heist. It is a story of small people and their whopping jump to the dark side. Set in a western UP village by the
JashnnJashnn Review

The Bhatts have often told stories that seem straight out of everyday life. Their new outing Jashnn also mirrors the thoughts of zillions of hopefuls. It's about a nobody who wants to achieve success in life, wants to live his dreams,
Morning WalkMorning Walk Review

From the looks of it, you'd feel that Morning Walk is about senior citizens/septuagenarians, but director Arup Dutta crams the film with so many sub-plots that the film loses focus. It's like starting at Churchgate, but instead of heading towards Virar,
Sankat CitySankat City Review

Sometimes, big things come in small sizes... Sankat City may not boast of stars to lure the audiences, it may not have a colossal canvas [on the contrary, the making is very basic], it may not have a terrific musical score
Short KutShort Kut -The Con Is On Review

Till quite some time back, remaking a successful film was considered a safe bet. In fact, the most reliable, foolproof way at hitting paydirt. But let's not forget, not all stories have the potential to strike gold. Short Kut, a remake
