Paloma Sharma's Film Reviews
-
Samrat & Co might be about an extraordinarily observational man’s fight against crime but as far as cinema goes, this film is a crime against the genre.
-
Revolver Rani could have been the movie of the year. It ended up as a confused film that can’t decide who, or what it wants to concentrate on instead.
-
Tarzan is one of those rare scripts that Hollywood should have faxed to Bollywood and let them do it their way because only Karan Johar could have saved this film with a decent love triangle and loads of family melodrama.
-
Transcendence may be intellectually half-baked but it poses some serious queries about the boons and the banes of technology.
It might test your patience but if you choose to stay with the film, you will be rewarded adequately.
-
There’s nothing that should keep you from watching 2 States. If you’re as desi as I am and get senti about maa, there’s no way you won’t run home after watching this film and give your mother a big hug.
-
Oculus is a story that has its fair share of goosebump-inducing moments but it would have been told better if it were cut short.
-
Divergent is clearly made for its already existent fan base, with the best loved bits and pieces of the book shoved on to screen with hardly any adhesive to keep them together.
-
Rio 2 features some lovely, complex animation and a vivid, cheerful colour palette but is a one-time watch at best. Strictly confined within the box and The Formula, Rio 2 might be the Ram-Leela of animation/Hollywood when it comes to visuals but as far as children’s films go, it remains less innovative.
-
Main Tera Hero succeeds where films like R… Rajkumar, Chennai Express and Phata Poster Nikla Hero failed.
Not exactly suitable for family audiences, Main Tera Hero is a total seeti-maar, paisa vasool film and refreshingly unpretentious.
-
Captain America: The Winter Soldier does its best to be an out-of-the-box thriller, but eventually ends up feeling a bit factory manufactured and slightly lacking in that creative edge (which Chris Nolan’s Dark Knight series had the perfect dose of).
A must-watch for Marvel fans, Captain America has action-packed entertainment that may leave you thinking about the direction the world is heading in.
