Sneha May Francis's Film Reviews
-
Considering comparisons with the original are inevitable, the latest version will only expose Bollywood’s inability to fine-tune or even, convincingly rehash a story that had once thrilled the audience.
-
Unfortunately, Jha’s revolution this time round ends up unforgivably long, inadequately scripted and way too superficial to merit applause.
Yes, there are moments of optimism, but those are far too few to evoke any real passion. -
‘Madras Café’ rewards us with a story that refuses to bow-down to Bollywood stereotypes and traditional narrative, and remains true to what it promises to capture.
Truly a first for Bollywood, and hopefully, not the last.
-
It’s endearing at times, but the jokes are repeated so often that they lose shine.
Rohit’s carnival-like comedy coaxes some laughs, but can leave you exhausted. Make no mistake, ‘Chennai Express’ is fun, but the kind that Rohit endorses.
-
With Bollywood inundated with glorious stories of love, this one just doesn’t make us skip a heartbeat.
-
Only those with a lavish appetite for Bollywood frivolities will be able to digest this over-the-top, mushy romance.
-
Cinematographer Binod Pradhan indulges in riveting imaginary to capture Milkha’s haunting memories of a past bloodied during the Indo-Pak Partition.
-
It’s remarkable how one-film-old Motwane manages to create such an exquisite masterpiece without ever trying too hard.
Truly worth a standing ovation.
-
Veteran Om Puri also makes a fleeting appearance, but tickles us amply but not enough to make us want to watch this movie.
Take our cue…run, before it’s too late.

Just when you thought that Bollywood had (slowly, but steadily) matured in its take on love, director Aanad L Rai quashes our faith with a shockingly outdated love story. …Take our tip. Skip this one.
