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

Netflix’s Selection Day 2 Fails To Improve On Its Half-Baked Setup

  • Posted on April 22, 2019May 20, 2020
  • by Rahul Desai
The fundamental flaws of Selection Day remain the same – its narrative language, as with most homegrown underdog sports dramas, is derived from movies about sports rather than the sport itself

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

  • Posted on April 20, 2019May 4, 2020
  • by Rahul Desai
It’s easy to dismiss such films as “abstract” and “pretentious” these days, but there is something about Photograph that resonates for the way it brandishes a hopelessly dreamy gaze.

Padde Huli Movie Review: Not For The Masses Or The Classes

  • Posted on April 20, 2019May 2, 2020
  • by Karthik Keramalu
Padde Huli’s male lead is introduced as “Young Tiger Shreyas”. Please, laugh, for this is the only joke in the movie that works!

Vellai Pookal Movie Review: An Interesting Concept, Let Down By Tacky Production, Poor ...

  • Posted on April 20, 2019May 6, 2020
  • by Vishal Menon
The concept, an interesting reveal and a thrilling narrative device…it’s all in there. But does that culminate to form an edge-of-the-seat viewing experience?

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

Watchman Movie Review: GV Prakash Gets Help From A Golden Retriever In An Unsatisfying ...

  • Posted on April 12, 2019May 6, 2020
  • by Baradwaj Rangan
The broad ‘Benji’-style cuteness is at odds with the claustrophobic ‘Panic Room’-style chiller the director is going for

Albert Pinto Ko Gussa Kyun Aata Hai Movie Review: An Unsubtle, Bewildering Fever Dream

  • Posted on April 12, 2019May 8, 2020
  • by Anupama Chopra
Prostitution, pedophilia, middle-class apathy – there’s too much weight put on the half-baked script and the film collapses quickly

Criminal Justice Review: The Hotstar Show Is Stretched, Safe And Not As Culturally Refl...

  • Posted on April 6, 2019May 20, 2020
  • by Rahul Desai
Even if we look at the series for what it is, Criminal Justice fails to earn our empathy by any means that haven’t been employed by hundreds of emotionally manipulative Bollywood movies over the years

Kuppathu Raja Movie Review: A Boring Film That Comes Together Only In The Climax

  • Posted on April 6, 2019May 6, 2020
  • by Karthik Keramalu
If Prakash Kumar doesn’t change his game sooner or later, it’ll become difficult for him and the audience that pays to watch him on the big screen
