Hope

2026 · Mashable

'Hope' is a bonkers, brilliantly entertaining mess that I would happily watch again. It is proof that a film doesn't necessarily need an intelligent screenplay to deliver an unforgettable theatrical experience. Would I call it a wonderfully unhinged action comedy disguised as a monster movie? Without hesitation because it's chaotic, ridiculous, excessive and frequently nonsensical, and I loved the experience.

Dhurandhar: The Revenge

2026 · Mashable · Mar 2026

'Dhurandhar: The Revenge' is a paradox. It's a brilliantly executed spy thriller with top-tier action, compelling moments, and undeniable cinematic ambition. But it's also a film that leans heavily into propaganda, using real-world pain and political sentiment to amplify its impact.
