Soori's Charisma Sails Through A Painfully Predictable Plot
Dorothy
2026 · HollywoodReporterIndia
Dorothy is a welcome departure from that disappointment. The form is solidly present, flipping between a flashback in colour and a present in black and white—a reversal, where usually the past is rendered in monochrome nostalgia. Long shots litter the film—and there almost seems to be a narrative point to these long shots.

Eko
2025 · HollywoodReporterIndia
Great cinema has a way of undoing our expectations of it. At its most potent, Malayalam cinema can feel pungent, thick with characters, who are full of life.
Tourist Family
2025 · HollywoodReporterIndia · May 2025
There is something bold, naive, hopeful, and tiresome about Abishan Jeevinth's 'Tourist Family' — you can never win against the worn out state, but you can always charm it.
Dunki
2023 · Film Companion · Dec 2023
To see Dunki, then, is to stare into this chasm with a lethargic vertigo. The central flux of the story itself is never convincing. Once he exits the film's stage, the second half becomes an emotional wasteland, lulling without tension, humour, or pathos.
