Udta Punjab
2016 · Filmfare · Jun 2016
Over and above, Udta Punjab is not just a winner in Court but also a cracker of a film. It certainly makes you think. While the film is bound to start a dialogue about substance use and abuse, it might even spark off a solution.
Finding Dory
2016 · Filmfare · Jun 2016
For those of us who've waited for over a decade to see Marlin, Nemo and Dory again, Finding Dory is a welcome piece of nostalgia. The new surprises make for a great experience, one made for the whole family.
Warcraft
2016 · Filmfare · Jun 2016
Overall, Warcraft has nothing new and exciting to offer in terms of cinematic quality. Even the visuals and effects, though remarkable in bits, aren't enough to make you sit through. A lot of it also looks all too familiar to Harry Potter, The Lord Of The Rings and Game Of Thrones. Two moments of witty banter do get you to chuckle but it's not worth the ticket price, for gaming enthusiasts or otherwise.
The Nice Guys
2016 · Filmfare · Jun 2016
If you're planning on watching something this weekend, The Nice Guys should be your first pick. Not just for the sharpness of the script and screenplay, but also because it's a wholesome mix of movie genres. And it serves up '70s Hollywood in the most evocative and funny way. Besides, the actors look like they're having a ball, the director's got your attention throughout the film and the '70s is presented to perfection. What more could you ask for?
X-Men: Apocalypse
2016 · Filmfare · May 2016
Overall, this may not be the best superhero film ever and you might come out of it releasing that there's a sequel too many out there. Despite being all too familiar, this Marvel package deal does give a bang for your buck.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice
2016 · Filmfare · Mar 2016
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is recommended only so you can end the almost three-year long wait to find out what happens in the epic collision, but unfortunately for nothing more than that.
The Revenant
2016 · Filmfare · Feb 2016
Overall, The Revenant may not be the most compact film but it is an impactful one. Stunning visuals and performances aside, this film is a sensory experience above all else, although not one for the faint hearted.
Aligarh
2016 · Filmfare · Feb 2016
Overall, the honesty and the haunting reality of the story are what make Aligarh such a compelling watch. Even in the disheartening end, Aligarh gives you hope that maybe, someday our society will be on the verge of coming out for good.
