My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2 movie review: Two and half stars
May 13, 2016 17:17 IST
This film is more content playing on its old, successful themes, including a Windex spray, and even inveigles a wedding between Toula's still-squabbling parents under the flimsiest of pretexts to justify the title.

Money Monster movie review: Two and half stars
May 13, 2016 16:59 IST
Julia Roberts is especially good as her role almost entirely involves emoting through her voice, but even George Clooney nicely moderates his charisma to appear desperate and downright unlikable in parts.

The Hunstman: Winter’s War movie review: So why should one watch Winter’s War?
April 22, 2016 15:46 IST
The Hunstman: Winter's War movie review: So why should one watch Winter's War? One wishes one could say for its star cast, impressive as it is. However, if the dazzling, imposing Theron is missing but for a few minutes of snarling venom at the end, the others are, to say the least, far from fairy-like.

Eye In The Sky movie review
March 18, 2016 18:14 IST
Eye In The Sky movie review: The icy Alan Rickman, with the cutting inflexion he puts on the word "minister", and the icier Helen Mirren barely disguise their contempt at the dilly-dallying.

Carol movie review: Cate Blanchett, Rooney Mara shine in the film
February 26, 2016 20:00 IST
Carol movie review: While Blanchett not surprisingly is great as this very rich and polished yet dangerously brittle woman who starts off as the more confident and even a tad pushy one in the affair, Mara is a revelation as a girl who is as vulnerable as she is generous.
