Sachin Chatte's Film Reviews
-
Neither the screenplay nor the direction helps the cause, once they are stranded, there is precious little that happens. Watch this film at your risk, don’t say you were not warned!
-
The film is a triumph of storytelling and it has everything in good measure. Daniel Bruhl as Niki is spot on and ditto with Chris Hemsworth in a more memorable performance.
Rush is certainly one of the best films from Hollywood this year. Go for it!
-
It is pretty much harmless entertainment. Denzil Washington and Mark Wahlberg liven the proceedings with a few wise cracks. The film is adapted from a comic book so you wouldn’t expect something terribly serious but a decent time at the movies.
-
Virtually every scene in the film offers more than just what is shown or said. And it is not a serious film all the way, take the dabbawallah scene where he argues with the Ila that even Harvard university came to see them and so did English royalty!
Do what you please but don’t miss The Lunchbox. -
Phata Poster Nikhla Hero looks like a film of the 70’s and 80’s – very little logic, lots of melodrama, plenty of songs and a climax that looks like it was written using the Andaz Apna Apna template.
-
While Adam Sandler has his own fan following him, chances are, even they won’t be able to digest these proceedings easily. So, Grown Ups 2 is meant for anyone but grown ups and at 91 minutes this film is about 88 minutes too long.
-
This particular genre has become incapable of throwing up any surprises, it is perennially old wine in old bottle. Occasionally, the label varies.
-
While the film keeps you reasonably interested in the first half, it still moves like a driver on a highway who refuses to move into top gear. The plot which tries to be too smart for its own good falls apart considerably, later.
-
While the predecessor Masti was no great shakes it was not as harmful as this one directed by Indra Kumar. There is no part of the male and female anatomy that remains unexplored in this travesty of a film. Since there is no evidence of any intelligence, on second thoughts the one part that has little to do with the film is the brain.
-
The problem with making sequels is that it should also appeal to people who haven’t sent the previous films and unfortunately Riddick doesn’t score too many points there. This one is meant for die hard sci-fi fans.
