Badrinath Ki Dulhania review

Badrinath Ki Dulhania

Hindi · 2017

Badrinath Ki Dulhania is certainly not a Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, but backed with fine performances stands in its own place. A complete entertainer.

Commando 2 review

Commando 2

Hindi · 2017

Commando 2 is a slow moving movie, which has absolutely nothing original. The fight sequences are borrowed, the dialog is sloppy and the end is as good as propaganda.

Jackie

Lion review

Lion

English · 2017

The movie is based on the book A Long Journey Home, by Saroo Brierley. It is a tale of a boy who gets lost in Calcutta and is adopted by an Australian couple, a boy who does not forget his mother and finds his way back home, and twenty five years later. The little boy Saroo is simply brilliant.

Mona Darling review

Mona Darling

Hindi · 2017

Indian School of Technology is located in a remote place and forensics are called because four students have been brutally killed by something that has bitten off their limbs and necks and heads. A good start to a horror film, but it slowly falls into cliches and is unable to recover. Bollywood has never made worthy to be slotted as 'Horror' but this one makes an effort.

Rangoon review

Rangoon

Hindi · 2017

There are reluctant bodyguards, sacrificing soldiers, national anthem being sung, atrocities on common folk, and a bridge on the river Kwai that should have been blown up by at least one warring side. The movie is so long you are too tired to call it names when it is over.

The Ghazi Attack review

The Ghazi Attack

Hindi · 2017

It's a fictionalized account of a brave unsung Indian submarine that downs the Pakistani super submarine, which is shoddily made, with terrible special effects and worse physics. Completely avoidable.

Running Shaadi review

Running Shaadi

Hindi · 2017

Running Shaadi has a stellar supporting cast, the situations and dialogue are funny too, but the lead cast is pathetic. And that makes you wish the film weren't that long.
