Sarkaru Vaari Paata Review

Through and through, it is only the occasional sparks of humour that keep us hooked here and there. The songs, too, do their service....

Ashoka Vanamlo Arjuna Kalyanam Review

The comedy surrounding the pre-wedding photo-shoot is weak. For that matter, the comedy takes a beating in the second half and the film barely has any laugh-out-loud moments....

Acharya Review

In 'Acharya', saving Dharma is just a flourish of emotive language. Beneath the deceptive language, you find plenty of usual drama, routine screenplay ideas and dated plot points....

Oh My Dog Review

Nowadays, children are exposed to dramas and actioners unsuitable for their age. In 'Oh My Dog', a dog talent show is staged as if the film was made in the 1990s or 2000s....

Bloody Mary Review

What all happens in a matter of a day or two in 'Bloody Mary' calls for suspension of disbelief. What goes for thrills in this web show are actually convenient plot points....

KGF Chapter 2 Review

The editing pattern, written into the clever screenplay, makes even the routine elements seem different. The flavour of 'KGF 1' is retained where necessary....

Beast Review

'Beast' tosses up a few worthy ideas. But the disparate ideas don't get together. What this Vijay-starrer has to offer are a few laughs and plenty of lame action....

Ghani Review

A film like this should have got adrenaline-laced action parts. The boxing shots get tiresome even if you are someone who keeps an interest in the sport....

Mishan Impossible Review

The way the kids make assumptions about Mumbai, the eating habits of its people, and the distance to the Maximum City from their village makes them look like adorable Muppets....

RRR Review

Its plot turns are fairly engaging. The action sequences, the majestic performances by the lead actors, the interval bang, and climax are its stand-out features....

Stand Up Rahul Review

By and by, the overdone character-based comedy dilutes the impact. Much as the film seems to think that live-in relationship is some first-time concept in movies, sorry to break it to the film....

The Kashmir Files Review

The interplay of the separatist network, the info war, the mendacious victimhood narrative, and international media has been spoken of in the film....

Maaran Review

In the second half, after the film starts introducing one or two supposed high points, the visual grammar, the performances, and technical aspects join hands to pull down our interest, if any left....

Radhe Shyam Review

The second half is more even in terms of building a certain mood. The splendor of lead performances, however, doesn't inform the overall flavor....

ET (Evariki Thalavanchadu) Review

Light scenes are intercut and we see gory frames of a woman getting brutalized somewhere. Everything is unsettling in the first half....

Aadavaallu Meeku Johaarlu Review

This film has come just when family audiences have started coming to theatres. If the 'word of mouth' is positive, there is no stopping it for the next one week....

Sebastian PC 524 Review

There are references to the Gita and the Bible. There is a love story that was cut short. There are elements like betrayal and the clinical execution of a crime. The script is really layered....

Hey Sinamika Review

The situations are contrived when they are not downright ridiculous. Nothing keeps us invested in the flaws of the lead characters. The climax is predictable....

Bheemla Nayak Review

Glorious performance by Pawan Kalyan, a rousing background score by Thaman, excellent visuals, and Trivikram's writing are its stand-out features....

Valimai Review

We don't feel that he has the hopes of lakhs of people riding on him. A consignment worth Rs 3000 Cr is stashed away and we don't feel the stakes are high....
