I wanna be a rebel, I wanna be a rebel, I wanna chew my master’s brand new shoe all day! Well, sorry to break the bubble, but real life ain’t like that folks. It’s mean and it’s harsh; trust me, take it from someone who has had enough kicks to last his lifetime. The faster … Continue reading
Expert at prison break, Ray Breslin [Sylvester Stallone] gets deceived and confined to a maximum security prison situated at a mind-bogglingly unknown location. Trapped and beaten, Ray soon teams up with Emil Rottmayer [Arnold Schwarzenegger] and chalks out a daring escape. Having laughed all through most of the movie, I feel watching Escape Plan is … Continue reading

In a world where every second female seems to have access to an excellent beauty parlor adept at metamorphosing any ‘material’ into the most fascinating, just having a pretty good looking cast alone is not sufficient, until the cast gets totally immersed in the character-acting. Endless Love does just that, it throws in two really … Continue reading
A work of art that subsists on departure from details embodied in Scriptures, NOAH offers Darren Aronofsky’s personal take on the ascetic Noah, the Ark Noah builds, the great Deluge and the After. Being a 21st century production, Noah has secularism-induced-novelties-dipped-in-environmental-concerns. The film lacerates the Scripture’s one of the most-often-read tales and imparts it imagined modern … Continue reading
Oye! Oye!! An ‘everything is awesome’ spectacle, a 3D animation story about toys, with “cuties” and lots of creativity-fun laden building blocks most of us handled as kids to craft our own world of childhood fancies. Lego Movie is superb with its multi-colored houses, lofty cranes, and fast cars. At once funny and witty, engrossing … Continue reading

A suspense flick that hints at road-rolling over the delicate wires of relationships, A Pact is an unnerving 85 minutes of reel time set in erstwhile East Germany of the early 1080s.

Digressions into semantics of ‘sequel’ or prequel’ apart “300: Rise Of An Empire”, a stylized action film can well be termed as a ‘porn-quel’ with its penchant for crazy sex, welcoming intercourse while busy in combat, showcasing breasts that bulge out, and merrily shoving sharpened blades in guts. A blood-soaked, gory-and-brutal in its handling of … Continue reading
An action comedy that juxtaposes an unfriendly slow-in-speech man [Ice Cube] with entertainingly funny but rapid-and-fast-speech person [Kevin Hart], Ride Along is a joy ride through and through. Don’t let the fact that Kevin Hart is a short statured fellow—yes, we met him at the red carpet premiere in Sydney on March 6th—get in your … Continue reading
A toast to resourcefulness, to remaining unruffled in a sea of storm, All Is Lost stands out as a superbly intriguing adventure drama. And it is also a spectacular tribute to Robert Redford’s powerful screen presence. With his scarce monologues, harking back to soliloquies in Hamlet-fashion, tough but terse, he pulls off this refreshingly novel … Continue reading

When Oscar winning actors, much past their prime, come together to pose as old buddies out for a last hurrah in the City of Sin before Life’s curtain call, you expect the result to either be a smashing success or a deplorable attempt. For a comedy, it could either be a surge in belly laughs … Continue reading

Let’s get two facts straight: first, Bullet to the Head(BTTH) is solely meant to entertain; and second, entertain that specific audience who still like their old-school action movies, that escape the bullshit and shoot straight. BTTH is a classic example, and a very welcome revival, of the type of movie where there is no suspense, … Continue reading
Okay. Let me tell you one thing before we begin to spin and weave this tale. We spiders don’t bite humans so that they can behave like us. We like being creepy, crawly, jumpy, and most importantly, being able to frighten people! Now if a guy begins to behave like us, and save people, then … Continue reading
