March 03, 2022 18:45 IST

December 22, 2021 17:15 IST

House of Gucci movie review: Lady Gaga shines in Ridley Scott directorial
November 26, 2021 15:34 IST
House of Gucci movie review: Lady Gaga's Patrizia Reggiani, the woman in fur caps, leopard prints, big nails, golden jewellery, and ever-changing bouffant, consistently prevents Ridley Scott's latest from becoming overboring, overlong and over-serious.

The missing Draupadis of UP fightSubscriber Only
November 21, 2021 03:55 IST
Shalini Langer writes: Priyanka Gandhi Vadra's attempts to rouse them did not really draw a response, and the “Suno Draupadi” poem drifted away without creating waves, same as the river lapping behind her.

November 19, 2021 13:55 IST
Bunty Aur Babli 2 movie review: Director Varun V Sharma doesn’t think Saif Ali Khan-Rani Mukerji are enough to repeat the success of the original, so he keeps falling back on Sharvari and Siddhant.

Last Night in Soho movie review: A film lost within a film
November 12, 2021 17:29 IST
Last Night in Soho movie review: The film is billed as a horror, but it doesn't scare; striving to be about seedy underbellies, it doesn't disgust; suggesting visions, it fails on insight.

November 05, 2021 18:37 IST
Eternals review: The latest film in MCU packs in genuine diversity, good acting and a warmth that is unusual to find in films such as it, which are more intent on impressing than winning over.

Halloween Kills movie review: A desperate attempt
October 29, 2021 19:13 IST
Halloween Kills movie review: The 2021 film, which takes off from where the 2018 film ended, is a desperate attempt to latch on to anything and everything.

October 29, 2021 18:56 IST
Ron's Gone Wrong movie review: The problem with Ron's Gone Wrong is that there is so much happening, to so many people, not to say the bots that are their best buddies, that it is hard to believe the film really cares for anything at all.

The Last Duel review: Ridley Scott shines the light on delusions of men
October 22, 2021 19:50 IST
The Last Duel movie review: The Last Duel engages with the idea of consent (if not too convincingly), the torture of a trial, the cost of silence, and the often-greater price of speaking up for women.

Dune movie review: Timothee Chalamet, Zendaya film is astonishingly good, surprisingly disappointing
October 22, 2021 18:55 IST

Venom Let There Be Carnage movie review: Story is secondary in this disappointing Tom Hardy-starrerSign In to read
October 15, 2021 17:12 IST

September 30, 2021 17:35 IST
No Time to Die review: Daniel Craig’s 007 doesn’t just bruise, he hurts. He doesn’t just ripple with muscle; he ripples with the creases that years of unspeakable horrors have left on his face. And what a face that is!
