-
Fury may not be everyone’s cup of tea but it serves as a great reminder of the devastation wars bring with them…
-
With an uncomfortably high number of elements borrowed from an insane amount of places, The Judge is the refined, severely toned down version of basically every Yashraj/Karan Johar movie.
This is Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham for Americans.
-
Ekkees Toppon ki Salaami is one of those films that you can watch over and over again.
Extraordinarily ordinary and proud of it, Ekkees Toppon ki Salaami reminds us of the important things in life in a highly consumerist world.
-
22 Jump Street might fall slightly short of being as awesome as 21 Jump Street but it will surely leave you begging for more.
PS: Stick around for the titles. You’ll thank me later.
-
Lucy could have used more action and a better soundtrack and although it isn’t really a masterpiece, it cannot be dismissed either. Lucy is a visual treat — like National Geographic in HD. But better.
-
Begin Again speaks to the viewer like few films have… Begin Again has neither heroes, nor anti-heroes.
It just has people — pathetic, frustrated, struggling people who are still clinging on to the hope that things will get better.
And it has music; and sometimes that is enough too.
-
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is not, and never was, about a fictional future that seems scary and yet amusing to us at present.
It is about realising what we’re doing today and what could be done to us tomorrow.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes unapologetically pits humans against apes; and you can’t just be a mute spectator.
You will be forced to take sides.
-
The World Before Her is a poignant, disturbing watch. It makes you wonder which will be the new India — Ruhi’s glamorous “modern” world, or Prachi’s traditional, religious State. And will either of these really be so different from each other?
-
Filmistaan is packed with great background scores, unfaltering narration and stellar performances.
It’s also one of the best films I’ve watched since Queen and D-Day; it’s absolutely flawless.
-
This film is more about experiencing hope than it is about paying attention to the technical aspects and the unfortunate socio-political climate that prevails around us makes it a must-watch.
Manjunath is a lesson in humanity we all need at the moment.
