MOVIE REVIEW NEWS

Kandahar movie review: The new Gerard Butler vehicle is a mostly-dull slog that benefits greatly from a charismatic performance by Ali Fazal.

Adipurush movie review: This version of the Ramayan is not interested in connecting with the feeling of genuine religiosity that any reading of the ‘granth’ arouses, whether it is the most popular Tulsidas version or the Valmiki version.

Extraction 2 movie review: Director Sam Hargrave ups the ante when it comes to staging elaborately choreographed action, but the movie can't help but feel a little boilerplate, despite Chris Hemsworth and Golshifteh Farahani's committed performances.

Flamin' Hot movie review: Debutant director Eva Longoria instills great energy into the story of Richard Montañez, a man who, while working as a janitor at Frito-Lay in the 1990s, claimed to have created the Flamin' Hot flavour of Cheetos.

Maurh review: Inconsistent writing and direction compromise some spectacular elements and cripples this retelling of the powerful legend of Jeona Morh.

Despite having an intriguing plot, Suraj Varma's Kolla disappointingly plunges into the depths of mediocrity due to the absence of a compelling and enthralling narrative.

Takkar movie review: Siddharth-starrer is what you get when you have poor understanding of the world around you and rely on stereotypes to tell a story.

Vimanam movie review: The story of Vimanam and the way it is executed feels dated and unrealistic.

Bloody Daddy movie review: Shahid Kapoor-starrer has all the ingredients of a pacey thriller but despite the occasional burst, it slumps back into a been-there-seen-this category.

Por Thozhil review: Despite following all the tropes of a buddy cop movie, debutant Vignesh Raja has come up with an enjoyable genre film that manages to hold your attention throughout.

A Beautiful Life movie review: The new Netflix film tells the rags-to-riches tale of a troubled fisherman who is sent on a journey to pop stardom after being 'discovered' by a powerful record producer.

To Catch a Killer movie review: Damián Szifron first came to notice for his pretty original Wild Tales. There is nothing wild about his second film.

Despite addressing a significant topic, Neeraja suffers greatly due to a lack of comprehension regarding female emotions, particularly in scenes that necessitate a deeper understanding.

Kather Basha Endra Muthuramalingam movie review: Directed by Muthaiya and starring Arya, the film is a bland mess that has no reason to exist.

Pareshan movie review: Writer-director Rupak Ronaldson delivers another hard to digest, hard to ignore film with Pareshan. Thiruveer surprises again with his commitment to his role.

Chidiakhana movie review: There’s a pleasing sincerity about Ritvik Sahore, and Rajeshwari Sachdev and Mahesh Narayanan are both capable of breathing life into a scene. But with so little lift from the writing, they all come off cliched.

Zara Hatke Zara Bachke movie review: The film is a tonal switch in its second-half, introducing a plot twist doused in mothballed sentimentality, and adding a dreary sanskari layer to the whole thing.

Spider-Man Across the Spider-Verse movie review: The film is impressive, even though it loses its way in the middle, as it gets caught up in its own genius, but builds up to an unexpectedly spine-tingling finale.

Godday Godday Chaa review: Sonam Bajwa and Tania smash the patriarchy in this rib-tickling film that highlights the silent suffering of women.

Despite its potential with a plot that remains relevant, Malayalam film Live fails to deliver a compelling movie experience due to its weak screenplay.

Kazhuvethi Moorkkan movie review: SY Gowthama Raj has handled an intricate subject that serves as an cross-sectional view of the relationship between caste and politics in Tamil Nadu. However, while the story is engrossing, the same could not be said about the craft of the film.

Mem Famous movie review: Despite feeling like an extended YouTube short at times, it is a heartfelt film that addresses today's social realities.

Jogira Sara Ra Ra movie review: Headlined by Nawazuddin Siddiqui, this rom-com packs in humour, small-town flavour even though some bits are drab.
