Oru Yamandan Premakadha Movie Review: An Average Film With A Few Good Laughs

  • Posted on April 25, 2019May 4, 2020
  • by Sethuraman S
The plot of the movie has a mind of its own and is constantly wandering but the screenplay is kept light with comedic moments from a host of comedians

Photograph Short Film Review: An Ambitious Short That Places Feeling Over Form

  • Posted on April 20, 2019May 4, 2020
  • by Rahul Desai

Mehandi Circus Movie Review: A Not-Bad Romance That Wants To Be An Epic But Falls Short

  • Posted on April 19, 2019May 6, 2020
  • by Baradwaj Rangan
The romantic track lacks the little “nothing” moments that made something like ‘Kadhal’ so special.

Madhura Raja Movie Review: Delightfully OTT, Until It Gets All Serious On You

  • Posted on April 12, 2019May 4, 2020
  • by Vishal Menon
The issues in the screenplay could have been particularly irritating in another film but here, you’re really only waiting for either the next major action block or the next major comedy scene

Chitralahari Movie Review: A Film That Thinks It Knows More Than It Actually Does

  • Posted on April 12, 2019May 6, 2020
  • by Sankeertana Varma
The bizarre, almost counterproductive, screenplay—the court scenes are a mess—and the unremarkable soundtrack don’t help matters

  • Posted on April 5, 2019May 6, 2020

No Fathers In Kashmir Movie Review: A Decent Kashmir Premise Undone By Its Desire To Be...

  • Posted on April 5, 2019May 8, 2020
  • by Rahul Desai
No Fathers In Kashmir is scripted smartly but the execution is a bit muddled, almost as if the director decides to compromise his awareness in favour of on-the-nose activist filmmaking

Lakshmi’s NTR Movie Review: A Mediocre Film About A Falling Legend

  • Posted on March 30, 2019May 4, 2020
  • by Karthik Keramalu
Since this a biopic made without the blessings of Rama Rao’s children, Naidu’s son Lokesh is called Akash, and, Telugu Desam is called Mana Desam

  • Posted on March 22, 2019May 9, 2020
  • by Parshathy Nath
Instead of tapping into sensitive elements, the film chooses to treat them superficially to just entertain with a series of “funny” one-liners

Badla Movie Review: A Nicely Paced Thriller That Isn’t As Smart As It Wants To Look

  • Posted on March 8, 2019May 8, 2020
  • by Rahul Desai
A film which thrives on creating an illusion that the narrative is constantly one step ahead of the audience when it actually isn’t
