Tiger-3 as the title suggests, is the 3rd in the ‘Tiger” series of Salman Khan – Yashraj Production combo. I really liked the 1st one in the series – Ek Tha Tiger; the 2nd one – Tiger Zinda Hai was o.k and not bad and therefore I looked forward to watching this one. But then,... Continue Reading →
Irugapatru – My Flash Review!
Family dramas and Romcoms as genres are a rarity in Tamil cinema these days. Consumed by the “Star” and ‘Mass” fixation, films of big stars and wannabe stars have all been treading the same beaten path of extreme violence, adrenaline-pumping action sequences, revenge sagas, murder mysteries and excessive noise. Irugapatru meaning “Hold tight” in Tamil... Continue Reading →

Jawan – My (late) Flash Review!
As I write this, Jawan has already completed more than two weeks in theatres and has turned out to be a humungous box office hit beating many records. The film starring Shahrukh Khan is directed by Atlee, a relatively new name in Bollywood but a very familiar name in South India having churned out successive... Continue Reading →
Jailer – My Flash Review!
Any Rajinikanth movie comes with loads of expectations and associated hype and Jailer is no exception. The film, coming at the back of a few average outings like 2.0, Durbar and Annatthe for the actor and an underwhelming Beast for Director Nelson obviously arrived with additional pressure for these two. First up, I must say... Continue Reading →
Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani – My Flash Review!
I always thought that as a filmmaker Karan Johar doesn’t just make films, but celebrates films. Invariably his films wade into oodles of nostalgia at every opportunity. His latest film – Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani (Rocky from here on) goes a step further. It is an unapologetic tribute to the Bollywood of Yore,... Continue Reading →
Maamannan – My Flash Review!
Mari Selvaraj the director of this film Maamannan, continues with his pet theme of caste oppression from his earlier films - Pariyerum Perumal and Karnan in this film as well. He also stays consistent in the narrative where the hero from the oppressed community seeks redemption in a sense and seeks revenge on the dominant... Continue Reading →
Bawaal – My Flash Review!
Bawaal - the new Hindi film that dropped on Amazon Prime boasts of some big and interesting names attached to it, Nitish Tiwari the director being one certainly. Tiwari who has made interesting films in the past like Nil Battey Sannata, Bhootnath Returns, Dangal and Chhichhore has a way of storytelling that is rooted in... Continue Reading →
Jackson Bazaar Youth – My Flash Review
With a title like that, it is difficult to fathom what the film is all about. A few minutes into the film, you get that it is the name of a local band around which the story is centred. The band is shown to be very popular in the small town of Kerala somewhere near... Continue Reading →
