Movie Reviews
Natasaarvabhowma movie review: High on ‘spirit’
It once again heavily rests on the presence and performance of the lead star actor without which the ordinary tale would have fallen flat.
Bird of Dusk takes an intimate look at a filmmaker and an icon
Bird of Dusk opens and closes with a Baul song, Bonomali timi poro jonome hoiyo Radha (Krishna, in your next birth come as Radha).
Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga movie review: Tentative attempt to promote a bold idea!
This film takes a rom com take on a serious subject, and cautiously tries to tell us about a reality that many would tend to ignore.
Manikarnika: The Queen of Jhansi movie review – Rani Laxmi Bai deserved better
If all the characters around Laxmi Bai in the movie had been replaced by cardboard cutouts, the viewing experience would be no different.
Manikarnika movie review: Kangana Ranaut shines in the underwhelming war drama
The film is a real pandering 'biopic', completely Bollywood-ised, overblown and simplified.
Bombairiya movie review: Bombairiya is confusion at its worst!
Bombairiya makes you feel that Mumbai is nothing but a disorderly chaotic mess with precious little variation.
Why Cheat India movie review: One is left wondering, why?
Hashmi may not be in his erstwhile mode of gangster-romantic-eternal lover that he has always played.
Uri - The Surgical Strike movie review: A fine film, even though it toadies up to powers that be
Kaushal carries the film almost single-handedly, raising the tempo and temperature, making us cry and, sometimes, smile.
The Accidental Prime Minister movie review: In His Majesty’s Ingratiating Service
Akshaye plays Baru with sumptuous deviousness, the sweaty-palm glee of a power-broker.
URI - The Surgical Strike movie review: A gripping and pulsating thriller
Lauding heroism in war movies is an easy sell to mass audiences but URI stays clear of jingoistic grandstanding or flag-waving patriotism.
