April 12, 2019 14:35 IST
Pet Sematary movie review: Horror aficionados Kevin Kölsch and Dennis Widmyer are helped by a solid cast, who help establish the Creeds as a family who love each other and, importantly, whom we come to care for.

Hellboy movie review: A deafening mish-mash of partly likeable characters
April 12, 2019 09:51 IST
Hellboy movie review: David Harbour of Stranger Things does a fine enough job as the brick-red man who emerged from the depths of hell with sawed horns on the forehead, a tail and a metallic hammer-like appendage for an arm.

Shazam movie review: A whole lot of fun
April 05, 2019 17:54 IST
Shazam movie review: Shazam! is more intent on having fun, and mostly achieving it too. It falls short though in the action department.

April 05, 2019 13:54 IST
Fighting With My Family movie review: Based on a true story about a British 18-year-old who remains the youngest WWE diva champion ever, Fighting With My Family puts its actors in a familiar arena and still manages to deliver a punch.

Dumbo movie review: A plodding bore
March 29, 2019 15:45 IST
Dumbo movie review: Michael Keaton, playing to his strengths, still shines once in a while, but Colin Farrell, as the only parent to two young children, is surprisingly and completely out of sorts.

Us movie review: The Jordan Peele directorial is terrifying but muddled
March 29, 2019 08:47 IST
If Get Out portrayed the deep fears of the two delicately poised races, Us goes deeper into the inner-most fears of us all. Us vs them. Us vs us. US vs the world. And the wall vs us.

How to Train Your Dragon The Hidden World movie review: The human-dragon tale seems stretched and contrived
March 22, 2019 15:04 IST
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World movie review: The story of Hiccup and his Night Fury called Toothless seems stretched and contrived, full of noisy battles, and stuffed with just too many fire-breathing giants.

Wonder Park movie review: A colourful mess
March 15, 2019 15:01 IST
Wonder Park movie review: The film stretches a point to its limit, even as it stretches our patience with all it packs in to ensure bang and laughs -- falling short on both, even as many minor characters indulge in incomprehensible banter.

Captain Marvel movie review: An engaging origin story
March 08, 2019 16:02 IST
Captain Marvel review: Writer-directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck keep the action moving fast and do not linger over any episodes. It's also an origin story with a difference, as we meet Brie Larson first as Vers, a member of the Kree Civilisation's 'Starforce'.

Memories stirred by Pulwama: Where childhood ends and fear beginsSubscriber Only
February 27, 2019 00:02 IST
I have struggled to hold on to its memory, as to the memory of the Jammu of my childhood, a Jammu untainted, for me, by hatred.

The Wife movie review: Glenn Close is phenomenal in the Björn Runge directorial
February 14, 2019 16:23 IST
The Wife movie review: In Glenn Close's hands, one gets a sense of the extent of Joan's love, sacrifice, dedication, duty and pain, which the film can't even begin to fathom.

The Lego Movie 2 The Second Part movie review: The franchise is finally running out of steam
February 08, 2019 17:41 IST
While the idea is stretched and the film sags to the point of boring, what also drags it down is the constant attempt to establish that what we have on screen are essentially toys, and the drama playing out in their lives is essentially a factor of those playing with them.

Alita Battle Angel movie review: A muddled affair
February 08, 2019 17:14 IST
Alita: Battle Angel movie review: Robert Rodriguez's film can't really decide what it should be, how much it should be, and the length it should go towards revealing the sequels to follow.

The Old Man & the Gun movie review: An ode to Robert Redford
February 01, 2019 19:19 IST
The Old Man & the Gun movie review: From the first frame to the last, the film is an ode to that gentle old man of Hollywood who has never believed in histrionics.

Mary Queen of Scots movie review: Bow down to Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie
February 01, 2019 15:23 IST
Mary Queen of Scots movie review: It is hard to believe Saoirse Ronan is the same girl from Ladybird of a year ago, such is the conviction she brings to the role of a woman who believes it her divine right to rule.

Replicas movie review: An ambitious misfire
January 18, 2019 18:18 IST
Replicas movie review: Director Jeffrey Nachmanoff squanders most of his time filming some futuristic science that has Keanu Reeves moving his hands about a lot as a virtual map of presumably a brain pops up when he wears a headgear.

Glass movie review: A convoluted superhero film
January 18, 2019 17:59 IST
Glass movie review: Glass seeks to bring Unbreakable and Split together, in a not-too-convincing whole, with James McAvoy's Kevin now presented as a superhero of another kind.

Second Act movie review: A wasted effort
January 11, 2019 11:34 IST
Second Act review: There is a surprising, if improbable, twist here that could have added a zing to this predictable tale. Instead, in the equanimous world of Second Act, this is spectacularly wasted.

The Mule movie review: Clint Eastwood is not the 90-year-old man the film promised
January 04, 2019 17:55 IST
The Mule movie review: Clint Eastwood comes into the role all his 88 years showing, in his balding hair, his stooped back, his creaking bones, his tiny steps, and his very-very-lined face.

Bumblebee movie review: This origin film might bring you back for a repeat
January 04, 2019 17:40 IST
Bumblebee movie review: The film's centrepiece, an Autobot called Chris, makes you feel for every pummelling he takes from the Decepticons chasing him across planets.

Just asking: Wasn’t God about love, mercy, treating everyone the same?Subscriber Only
January 01, 2019 00:23 IST
As age raises multiple walls between God and me, of disillusionment, the receding promise of a better tomorrow, lost innocence, scepticism, I have struggled to hold on to God

Roma movie review: An uneven tribute
December 14, 2018 17:59 IST
Roma movie review: Alfonso Cuaron clearly means Roma as a tribute to the help who raised him in childhood. However, the film ultimately is Cleo as seen through his eyes.

Ben is Back movie review: Watch it for Lucas Hedges and Julia Roberts
December 14, 2018 13:54 IST
Ben is Back movie review: Lucas Hedges, who was so, so good in the recent Boy Erased, plays a similar character here, if in different circumstances. As the son who repeatedly disappoints and knows it, he is very good.

Aquaman movie review: The Jason Momoa film is a washout
December 14, 2018 09:01 IST
Aquaman movie review: Director James Wan seems in an incredible rush, not lingering over any important characters or vital plot points but diving head first into yet another undersea clash.

Mortal Engines movie review: An exhausting watch
December 07, 2018 16:19 IST
Mortal Engines movie review: After a while, the scenes are a blur, of metal, machines, and loud music. It's obvious director Rivers had to pack in a lot to see this series started, but by the time he ends, the prospect of some more of this to follow seems daunting.
