Creed II movie review: Michael B Jordan is compelling as Adonis
November 29, 2018 17:07 IST
Creed 2 movie review: With the underlying fathers-and sons theme of this particular Rocky spin-off established, the plot charts a familiar trajectory, from self-doubt to triumph, in and outside the ring, as most boxing films.

November 23, 2018 18:40 IST
The Girl in the Spider's Web movie review: The film should do good for Claire Foy’s career, with the British actor making as clean a break as one can imagine from her stiff-upper-lip role in the TV series The Crown.

A Private War movie review: Rosamund Pike delivers a powerhouse performance
November 23, 2018 08:20 IST
A Private War movie review: Rosamund Pike's powerhouse performance is undermined to a large degree, ironically, by how the story of Marie Colvin’s life plays out on screen.

November 16, 2018 15:46 IST
Boy Erased movie review: Lucas Hedges is a brilliant actor, and his transition from a boy who adores his parents to one who begins to question their ways, is heart-breaking.

November 16, 2018 13:22 IST

Bohemian Rhapsody movie review: This is Queen anaesthetised for PG-13 rating
November 16, 2018 09:19 IST
Bohemian Rhapsody movie review: Rami Malek puts in an astonishing bit of work getting Freddie right (especially with those teeth), and makes light work of it, his eyes reflecting the hunger the film never sweats to show.

The Nutcracker and the Four Realms movie review: Just another princess story
November 02, 2018 15:03 IST
The Nutcracker and the Four Realms review: Despite several known names holding up the rear end, including Keira Knightley and Helen Mirren, the acting is choppy.

Hunter Killer movie review: The Gerard Butler film is a snoozefest
October 27, 2018 00:05 IST
Hunter Killer movie review: What is more entertaining is how far Gerard Butler and the others take their macho American act, tinged with Butler occasionally trying something different and staring long and intently.

Halloween movie review: Jamie Lee Curtis salvages horror film
October 27, 2018 00:04 IST
Now, showing every bit of her age, every bit of her pain, and every bit of fierce protectiveness towards her daughter and granddaughter, Jamie Lee Curtis, who we should really see more, takes on Michael eye to eye, jab to jab, knife to knife. And stands him down. Every time.

A Star Is Born movie review: Lady Gaga steals the show
October 12, 2018 17:56 IST
A Star is Born movie review: This film belongs to Lady Gaga, who outshines, outsparkles and, of course, outsings her way to a smashing film debut. Cooper seems to acknowledge that by giving her this platform, and yet not enough.

First Man movie review: The Ryan Gosling film is a delicate dance
October 12, 2018 17:41 IST
First Man movie review: It's Ryan Gosling himself whom Neil Armstrong may have approved of. Gosling also efficiently navigates the various roles expected of him.

Crazy Rich Asians movie review: And they lived happily ever after
October 06, 2018 00:01 IST
Crazy Rich Asians, as the buzz has been saying for quite some time now, is not to be judged by those standards. What it brings to the big screen is the first all-Asian cast in a big Hollywood production since Joy Luck Club more than 20 years ago.

Crazy Rich Asians movie review: An enjoyable affair
October 05, 2018 18:17 IST
Michelle Yeoh as Eleanor, the stern matriarch of the Young family, is quite credible, aware at all times about the hard battle she has waged to be accepted too, and the thin foundation on which this rests.

Venom movie review: Tom Hardy film disappoints
October 05, 2018 17:33 IST
The good-looking and talented Tom Hardy, who should be a walk-in for this role, inhabits it half-heartedly as an unshaven, unwashed reporter who botches the one investigation any newsman with half his credentials would know how to approach.

Peppermint movie review: The Jennifer Garner film is swimming in cliches
September 28, 2018 22:44 IST
Peppermint movie review: It's hard not to fall for Jennifer Garner. What else are those deep, deep dimples for? But Peppermint does it for you.

Johnny English Strikes Again movie review: This film flourishes in the hands of Rowan Atkinson
September 28, 2018 16:21 IST
A lesser comic than Rowan Atkinson would have let this film down. But in his hands, in Lacy's uncomplainingly brave sidekick act, in Thompson's charming turn as the clueless PM heading into what shall remain the most-disastrous G12 Summit ever, and in the film's running theme of old school vs new tech, Johnny English does strike again.

The House with a Clock in Its Walls movie review: Jack Black, Cate Blanchett can’t rescue this lifeless film
September 21, 2018 17:51 IST
It is all quite serious, and all quite boring -- though there is a flash once of what Cate Blanchett would rather be doing as she pumps her magic umbrella devilishly, just like one would a mosquito repellant, to get rid of some ghosts.

The Equalizer 2 movie review: Watch it for Denzel Washington
September 21, 2018 17:29 IST
The Equalizer 2 movie review: Antoine Fuqua packs in so many sub-plots that only a man with as much poise as Denzel Washington can even make a pretence of reading stuff like Marcel Proust's In Search of Lost Time through it.

Hope at the Demilitarised Zone as Koreas push to end warSubscriber Only
September 18, 2018 07:17 IST
South Korea knows the value of waiting. Along the road to the DMZ from Seoul, an area has been kept aside for when more vehicles would speed down that stretch “should reunification happen”.

Gali Guleiyan movie review: Watch it for Manoj Bajpayee and Om Singh
September 07, 2018 19:33 IST
Gali Guleiyan movie review: Manoj Bajpayee is good as always in portraying the increasing loss of self, but it is Om Singh as Iddu who really stills your heart with his blank eyes, that stare back from a face bathed in a film of sweat.

The Nun movie review: No chills, no thrills
September 07, 2018 18:33 IST
While The Nun, that is yet another rip-off of The Conjuring series (director James Wan is writer here), has Vera Farmiga’s lookalike sister in lead role, it has none of its chills or thrills.
