Mohar Basu's Film Reviews
-
Shilpi Dasgupta’s noble intention runs thin when the screenplay starts reducing sexual issues to jokes for quick giggles. The gaze is empathetic even though the protagonist starts off reluctantly.
-
Goodness that even Modi may not buy…Yes, it’s all whitewashing, and what’s even more bothersome is the absence of the promise that we once saw in Vivek Oberoi in Company
-
By no means is Kalank an unbearable film, but there is a constant tryst to divert our attention from its storyline.
-
Undeniably, majestic movie experiences are created by filmmakers and in Thugs of Hindostan, Vijay Krishna Acharya makes a fatal mistake – he takes his audience for granted. No wonder, Thugs of Hindostan doesn’t rise above being an absolute snoozefest
-
Namaste England would have still made the cut, had the actors been able enough to shoulder the film. We have no idea where the fiery chemistry that Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra had in Ishaqzaade fizzled out…
-
This script has certainly been written with love. It helps that both Dhawan and Sharma are in top form. Yet, the tempo drops in the second half. The drama runs thin, and outlandish plots that see artisans turn into fashion designers raise many eyebrows. The unimpressive climax is disjointed, a far cry from the tone the film carried up until then. Despite its rousing moments, the film leaves you feeling unfulfilled.
-
Your Dose Of Smiles And Tears…Viewers are instantly sucked into the rustic milieu and volatile world of Champa and Genda Kumari
-
Dharmendra, Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol are under the assumption that the audience will pay big bucks to watch them share screen space. But, there isn’t much to admire here
-
Few glaring hiccups in an otherwise watchable and frankly, very enjoyable film. Just don’t hope for a warts-and-all biopic…
-
It’s a shame really that Omerta lacks depth, never giving an insight into Omar’s criminal designs. As a thriller, it’s pacy and yet, distinctly half-baked and stiff. I assure you, this movie could be about one of most dreaded men of our times but this film tells us nothing about the man that a quick google search wouldn’t. As for Rao, a friend rightly puts it – He was good even in Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana; what’s special about this then?
