Deccan Chronicle Team's Film Reviews
-
Badla is cleverly scripted and executed with a brilliant cast. It is both engaging and enjoyable. The unexpected ending is the cream on the top of this well-crafted suspense thriller. It is also probably a rare Bollywood film that you have to love because it manages to outsmart you!
-
Anchored by terrific performances by its star-ensemble, Chaubey brings his assured directorial mind to an eerily beautiful film.
-
While this kind of story feels a bit familiar, its excellent music & sense of realism along with the fine performances make up for it.
-
Manikarnika is a misguided and typical effort bolstered by only a few noteworthy aspects. Still, Kangana Ranaut remains as the Queen.
-
URI is edge-of-your-seat ride through recent history featuring Vicky Kaushal’s competent performance at its centre.
-
Simmba boils down to yet another poorly pencilled script that tries to compensate it’s shortcomings with every other ludicrous means.
-
The film is overlong and predictable, but it retains it’s excitement and holds the audience’s attention to the end.
-
In the conclusion, Kedarnath does have some genuinely likable moments but when the monotony of the drama gets exposed, the film’s pace breaks down and the entertainment level drops. The film somewhat manages to regain its speed in the climax. But till then, you find it is already late.
-
A low-stake, contrived story filled with futile characters and hampered by exposition makes this sequel a dull affair.
-
‘Isle of Dogs’ is fast paced, colourful, and an absolute delight all around. And Anderson once again demonstrates that he is among cinema’s all time greats.
