Bad Moms review

Bad Moms

English · 2016

If you are not the perfect mom, then you must be bad. And not just bad, you have to be vodka swilling, lecherous woman whose home should be in a perpetual mess. It's a great idea gone so wrong, the combined talents of Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell, Kathryn Hahn and Christina Applegate cannot save the film.

Ghostbusters review

Ghostbusters

English · 2016

When you're too young to remember the original Ghostbusters, or too old to remember the original, comes this mad 'all woman' protagonists version. Interesting idea, and 'hyuck-hyuck' funny in parts, and despite the title song being repeated often, it makes you look at the time again and again.

Kabali review

Kabali

Hindi · 2016

Rajinikant is such a phenomenon today that he now has to live up to that larger than life persona in the movies as well. He cannot be shown eating pakodas at a roadside stall, calling the baddies and saying, 'parashakti heroda!' or be shown beating up politicians who insult his sister while his auto rickshaw driver friends watch in awe or even drunk dance after asking the nadaswaram goshti to perform at a dhaba...

Madaari review

Madaari

Hindi · 2016

An eye for an eye to get the corrupt politicians to own up to their mistakes, is a great idea. And we don't doubt that Irrfan Khan is able to carry the movie on his shoulders alone. But once you know the 'eye for an eye' motive, the thrill wears off and you labor through the how is he going to get caught by the police. It's too long, too loud and too melodramatic. Watch only for Irrfan Khan.

M Cream review

M Cream

Hindi · 2016

A pretentious little film that's so cliche ridden, you wish the four friends who have set out for the hills in search of a 'legendary' drug to smoke up, fall off some cliff.

Star Trek Beyond review

Star Trek Beyond

English · 2016

The Enterprise and its fabulous crew are back in a crackling, action-packed adventure in a nebula far far away. And this time the villains are so scary and so bad, they destroy everything we love about Star Trek movies.

Great Grand Masti review

Great Grand Masti

Hindi · 2016

Amar, Meet and Prem are back on the screen with the third instalment of their almost sexcapade. This time it is set in a haunted house. But no matter what the setting is, the comedy remains shallow: the jokes do not go beyond buxom women and male genitalia. It could have been very funny had they aimed at 'Carry On' series, but they do not go beyond bad Whatsapp jokes.

Sultan review

Sultan

Hindi · 2016

The most anticipated film of the year: Salman Khan's Eid release, Yash Raj films and the film has been directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. But what starts out to be a promising romance between sportspersons (both are wrestlers) soon dives headlong into a horribly predictable tale badly told. How you will hanker for Chak De!

The Legend of Tarzan review

The Legend of Tarzan

English · 2016

This retelling of the Tarzan story is so tedious, you can throw darts at the bad guys, knowing which one is going to die next. Jane is as important as what's-her-name in Transformers. The CGI gorillas should have stayed in the mist...

Shorgul review

Shorgul

Hindi · 2016

Do you have nothing better to do than watch a story about a small town burning and killing and raping people over religion? Can you be so bored that you could watch cliches in character and dialog? Then this movie might satisfy you and give you the despair you are craving for.

Kerry on Kutton review

Kerry on Kutton

Hindi · 2016

Remember the British Comedy Films in the 'Carry On' series? This film attempts to be that and then takes comedy into darker realms. The dialog and situations are very funny in parts, the characters are beautifully cast, but a better director would not allowed the film to meander all over the village.
