This is an immensely Disney film, but oh Pixar, like that song about fishbowls (and about going round and round in unending circles), how I wish, how I wish you were here. 

Everything that comes first is exhaustingly awake, while the finale, I gather, is yet another way to look at The American Dream. What a sales pitch.

These guys get it, the characters and the spirit of the comics. Captain America: Civil War is a great ride even if you don’t read the comics or haven’t seen any of the older films. 

Take a bow, Shah Rukh Khan.

Not only for a phenomenal, genuinely groundbreaking performance but for being bold enough to give us the sight of a boy wearing painted-on abs while aping you dancing in a song where you, according to rumour, wore painted-on abs. For a glimpse at a worn out 50-year-old man — massaging his temples, and stretching at the lines on his face — before turning on the high-wattage smile and stepping out to market his myth. 

Take the kids you know (and the kid within you) and go watch The Jungle Book.

Trust in me.

Shakun Batra’s sophomore effort is a finely, intelligently crafted film which stumbles because of its eagerness…

The Revenant is a devastating, visually jawdropping film that, for all its sins of tedium, makes up with scale what it lacks in artfulness. It certainly does the frontier justice. 

This movie is many things, certainly, but is also a mother-daughter film for the ages.

Madhvani’s biggest strength in Neerja may be the way he alternates between letting us relate to the character and making us feel awed by her.

Spotlight is a powerful film, with a terrific ensemble cast…

This is unmistakably a comic-book film, and some fun new X-Men show up, but you don’t need to know any more than the fact that this film really earns its exclamation marks.
