-
Meeruthiya Gangsters has flashes of Quadri’s brilliance, but the underwhelming script squanders all potential.
-
It is nearly impossible to decipher what this inept film is all about. Based on a thin, staggering plot line, it has a careless narrative which makes a mockery of its powerful theme. The film sets its bold tone right, almost as soon as it begins. But, as the narrative progresses, it jumbles up while juggling between too many ideas. What doesn’t help the film’s case is its lousy script, amateur acting and frivolous style.
-
Sculpted as a full throttle masala entertainer, Hero is plot-heavy. And while you are well acquainted with the story, Nikhil and Salman’s sensibility works as midas touch, giving the film a different texture. It is slick and never allows its viewers to feel restless. For its 132 minutes’ crisp runtime, Hero offers bucketful of entertainment and victoriously conveys that commercial movies needn’t be puerile to show people a good time.
-
As Bogdanovich takes us for a carousel trip after 13 years, it is heartening to lay back and let the frothy amusing chaos entertain you.
-
With a heartening story in tow, the film transforms a regular tale of suffering, loss and redemption extraordinarily. Though laden with cliches, it is consistently hard-hitting and never loses plot. The right blend of heart and skill works in suffusing an operatic feel to the movie which is an absolute knockout.
-
The film will touch you surely, but the overall effect doesn’t suffice as anything much to write home about.
-
At 91 minutes, these tiny yellow blobs steal the show from their human counterparts. With charming elements galore, adorable gibberish talk and winsome screen presence, the film is cuteness overload.
-
Tugging at the heartstrings, this movie has enough innocence to get you misty-eyed.
-
It’s an average fare which could’ve been far better had its meanderings been trimmed.
-
In its 91 minutes, Big Game can pass for junk cinema to go well with your popcorn. Its picturesque setting, exaggerated lines and well-drawn action sequences are fun while it lasts but not compelling enough to desire a repeat.
