movie review

Disney over the years has given us many beloved stories with their different versions getting better with time. The live action that was the need of the hour was present in the Will Smith starrer musical rendition of Alladin.

‘De De Pyaar De’ is a light-hearted rom-com that addresses the real and plausible, issue of an older man falling in love with a girl half his age and how it is viewed upon, by the Indian society.

This home invasion thriller revolves around a white psycho who terrorizes a clueless black young couple. But it’s not about race. The thing is the creep used to own their home and refuses to let go. Expectedly,  there is violence and mayhem.

Ryan Reynolds gives a standout performance voicing the titular cuddly wuddly Sherlock wannabe  “Pokemon: Detective Pikachu” in this first live-action movie adaptation of the popular multi-media franchise which originated as a Nintendo video game.

On the surface Maharshi is yet another star-vehicle for Telugu cinema’s most revered contemporary superstar. To be sure, almost every frame of Maharshi is dedicated to eulogizing its leading man as he plunges into the role of a social crusader.

Welcome to the murky world of academic fixers. If you are not an Indian and reading this, then let me quickly tell you North India has a tradition of proxy examinees. Bright doppelgangers who fill in for not so-bright examinees at examinations, answer their papers and go home with some tidy money.

‘The Curse of the Weeping Woman” by Michael Chaves is a tale about a vengeful spirit that is out to kill children. One could call the film a fascinating concept, a brilliant setting but a rushed job

Stephen King’s books have the power to set fear of the dead, the undead and the living in you, but sadly this Pet Sematary version directed by Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer barely touches the story’s surface.

Film: “Five Feet Apart” Director: Justin Baldoni Cast: Haley Lu Richardson, Cole Sprouse, Moises Arias, Kimberly…

Robbie Grewal’s espionage action thriller film, ‘Romeo Akbar Walter’ lacks action and thrill. Starring John Abraham, Mouni Roy and Jackie Shroff, RAW take a slow and document approach to the story that keep dragging the narrative for a long two and half hour.
