Stutee Ghosh's Film Reviews
-
Big B’s buoyant performance, aided by Ritesh Shah’s sharp writing, chews into the malicious chauvinism. Director Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury never loses his grip through the narrative and the extra layer of intrigue becomes more effective thanks to the taut editing by Bodhaditya Banerjee. Pink is quintessentially baar baar dekho!
If there is one film you watch this whole year, make sure it is this! -
Go for it with minimal expectations. Sonakshi and Anurag Kashyap pack a powerful punch, but the script fails to impress.
-
Raman Raghav 2.0 is not for everyone but if you are a fan of Anurag Kashyap’s brazen style of story-telling, you might forgive the predictable second half and still come out happy! It falters, but Nawazuddin Siddiqui makes it worth your time.
-
A more convincing back-story and more time at hand to grapple with the various clues would have been ideal.
But go for Te3n to witness the beauty of Amitabh Bachchan. He alone is reason enough! -
The performances no doubt constitute the soul of the film, but it’s to the credit of Hansal Mehta and Apurva Asrani that they translate so beautifully on screen. The flashbacks are deployed to stunning effect. Prof Siras’s story isn’t just a fight for gay rights but a triumph of conviction and spirit and for that it is a must watch.
-
Ram Madhvani steers clear of quintessential Bollywood melodrama, which turns out to be Neerja’s biggest strength. For recreating the beauty of the ’80s with a stunning eye for detail, and for bringing out the best in Sonam Kapoor, this film is a must watch. Go for it with family and friends and a big box of tissues.
-
If you plan to go for Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, you know what you are getting into. So make an informed choice. It’s really all about your “prem” for Salman and the hilarious Rajshri memes that deserve full family viewing.
-
Titli stands out because of its performances and riveting first half. It is dotted with abuses and violet scenes so go for it only if you can stomach reality that isn’t sugar-coated.
-
Suffice to say that Shaandaar is no Queen. A fairytale warrants a happy ending. Sadly this one leaves us hungry for something more substantial. It visually stunning but unlike Queen this one isn’t for everyone. Go for it only if you are a Shahid-Alia fan.
-
Overall it’s the gritty storytelling and the remarkable actors who help make Talvar a mature, well-executed piece of work.
This makes so much more sense than those noisy television debates!
