2025 · KoiMoi

Ram Charan proves why his star power, mass appeal, and swag remain unparalleled. His energy during the dance sequences is whistle-worthy. The superstar shines in both of his roles as father and son, and it can be safely said that he is the sole anchor of this one.

Daaku Maharaaj

2025 · KoiMoi

Despite some flaws, this one is a visual extravaganza for all the fans of Nandamuri Balakrishna. The plot is nothing unique and out of the box but it's the superstar's star power and screen presence which makes this an entertaining watch.

Thug Life

2025 · KoiMoi

Kamal Haasan's swag and vivacity are still top-notch at the age of 70 in the film. However, we expected a more refined execution with a superior combo like Haasan and Mani Ratnam. Despite an honest attempt, this one falls flat.

Kuberaa

Kuberaa

2025 · KoiMoi

Dhanush is the soul of Kuberaa. The actor is a chameleon wherein he blends with every shade of his character. This one is simply unmissable for all the Dhanush fans out there and can be inarguably touted as one of his finest works.

Kannappa

Kannappa

2025 · KoiMoi

The film had the scope to stand out as a soul-stirring devotional film. But the faulty execution makes this one a missed opportunity. While the core theme and action sequences hit the right note, the shoddy VFX, preachiness, melodrama, and inconsistent performances fail to evoke the required emotions needed for a devotional film of this scale.

Superboys of Malegaon

Superboys of Malegaon

2025 · KoiMoi

The riveting tale of friendship, ambition, passion for cinema, hardships, heartbreaks, but most importantly, the daring to dream big. The performances, writing, direction, and cinematography are just the cherry on top. Every cinema enthusiast should witness this visual delight.

2025 · KoiMoi

Vicky Kaushal's magnanimous performance, dialogues that promise to give you literal goosebumps, background score, battle sequences, costumes, makeup, and production design, and cinematography fulfill its core message to deliver a befitting tribute to Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj. You definitely cannot miss this one on the big screens.

Sikandar

Sikandar

2025 · KoiMoi

Salman Khan's Sikandar had its heart in the right place with a sensitive message. However, that gets heavily marred by a shoddy screenplay, loopholes in the plot and half-hearted performances. The movie goes onto go pretty much downhill from the second half.

Sunny Paaji proves why there can never be a dull moment with him on the screen. Jaat does have its own flaws but the entertainment quotient hits the right buttons.

Kesari Chapter 2: The Untold Story of Jallianwala Bagh

Kesari Chapter 2: The Untold Story of Jallianwala Bagh

2025 · KoiMoi

Kesari Chapter 2 is not just a film but it is an education and an emotion which should be especially experienced by our younger generation. Akshay Kumar's exuberance shines bright throughout the film with his portrayal of C Sankaran Nair being a brilliant combination of vulnerability and intensity.

Housefull 5

2025 · KoiMoi

Picture almost 3 hours of incessant cringeworthy jokes, unnecessary double meaning connotations, sexualizing female leads in every possible way and destroying the potential of producing a wholesome family entertainer. The degradation of the franchise should be studied, and it makes us just say one thing out loud, 'Bas Karo Ab.' Unless you really want to go on a self-destructive mode during this weekend, you should really avoid this one.

Jewel Thief - The Heist Begins

Jewel Thief - The Heist Begins

2025 · KoiMoi

Jewel Thief is completely devoid of logic and filled with such logic-less plotholes which make us go, 'Yeh Ho Kya Raha Hai?' The movie neither manages to entertain because of the laborious sub-plots and stereotypical dialogues, but also makes us wonder why Saif and Jaideep Ahlawat were needed to do this?

Sitaare Zameen Par

2025 · KoiMoi

Aamir Khan hits the right note with this one and how! The film teaches us the importance of destigmatizing the attitude towards people with Down Syndrome and manages to keep you hooked with many scenes which will leave you with happy tears.

Sky Force

Sky Force

2025 · KoiMoi

Sky Force is an honest attempt to pay a befitting tribute to the Indian Air Force, but this one tends to fall flat because of a preachy undertone and the 'Deshbhakti' theme which combines with a tint of jingoism in some places. Sky Force's biggest drawback lies in its writing and screenplay, which relies too much on preachy and jingoistic dialogues and moments.

Deva

Deva

2025 · KoiMoi

Irrespective of the flawed second half, especially the climax, Deva is definitely one of Shahid Kapoor's strongest works. The actor puts his heart and soul into this one, which is reflected in every frame. This promises to be a treat for all the die-hard fans of the actor.

Vidaamuyarchi

2025 · KoiMoi

Ajith's performance, along with the rest of the star cast, is top-notch, action sequences and the background score elevate the essence, riveting plotline, no meandering sub-plots, and cinematography ticks the right boxes. The Ajith starrer makes for a gripping watch, especially for those who are a fan of a slick and tailored action drama.
