Amar Singh Chamkila Review: Diljit Dosanjh Is At His Very Best In Deftly Crafted Ode

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday April 12, 2024

Amar Singh Chamkila Review: The film is mournful and festive, animated and pensive, consciously crafted and seemingly spontaneous.

<i>Bade Miyan Chote Miyan</i> Review: Fast, Furious And Infuriatingly Fatuous

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday April 12, 2024

Bade Miyan Chote Miyan Review: Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff huff and puff their way through the film, Prithviraj Sukumaran strives in vain to make the nonsensical passable.

Saibal Chatterjee | Wednesday April 10, 2024

Played with admirable restraint by Ajay Devgn, the character of Rahim towers over everything and everyone else in the film.

Saibal Chatterjee | Saturday March 30, 2024

Inspector Rishi Review: The Amazon Prime Video series blends the conventions of a police procedural with the chills of a supernatural horror drama. It does a nifty job.

<i>Patna Shuklla</i> Review: Raveena Tandon Tries Her Best To Propel The Film But It Is A Losing Battle

Patna Shuklla Review: Raveena Tandon Tries Her Best To Propel The Film But It Is A Losing Battle

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday March 29, 2024

Patna Shuklla Review: No matter how hard it tries to get us to engage with the important questions, the film raises with all the seriousness they merit, is the cinematic equivalent of a walkout bout. It is way too stiff and starchy to be a meaningful call to action.

<i>Crew</i> Review: A Heist Film Out To Deliver Some Harmless Fun

Crew Review: A Heist Film Out To Deliver Some Harmless Fun

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday March 29, 2024

Crew Review: Kareena Kapoor turns the clock back a bit and lets her hair down without a care in the world. She comes up trumps. Tabu, too, rises above the din despite being saddled with a rather sketchily delineated character who has to carry much of the film's weight on her shoulders.

<i>Madgaon Express</i> Review: A Deliriously Funny Bro-Mantic Laugh Riot

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday March 22, 2024

Madgaon Express Review: As the loquacious Dodo who has too much to conceal from his friends as matters spiral out of control, Divyenndu is a veritable livewire.

<i>Lootere</i> Review: The Series Is Both Gripping And Exhilarating

Lootere Review: The Series Is Both Gripping And Exhilarating

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday March 22, 2024

Lootere Review: The marital drama strand, bolstered by strong performances from Gomber and Khanvilkar, adds emotional depth to the plot.

Ae Watan Mere Watan Review: Neither Consistently Riveting Nor Memorably Rousing

Saibal Chatterjee | Thursday March 21, 2024

Ae Watan Mere Watan Review: Sara Ali Khan, playing the principal character, is way too porcelain and dainty to convey the remarkably doughty woman's fierce determination.

<i>Murder Mubarak</i> Review: Watchable All The Way

Murder Mubarak Review: Watchable All The Way

Saibal Chatterjee | Saturday March 16, 2024

Murder Mubarak Review: The film does not rely on action for effect. And the script ensures that talk isn't dull. The editing keeps pace with the speed at which the investigation unfolds and the directorial flourishes ensure that the film is never less than riveting.

<i>Yodha</i> Review: Insufferable Scrappy Thriller

Yodha Review: Insufferable Scrappy Thriller

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday March 15, 2024

Yodha Review: No matter how lenient you might want to be and how much of a Sidharth Malhotra fan you are, this pulpy action movie is a bumpy ride that lurches from one misstep to another.

<i>Big Girls Don't Cry</i> Review: Boarding School Adventure Is Frothy, Flimsy And Fun

Big Girls Don't Cry Review: Boarding School Adventure Is Frothy, Flimsy And Fun

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday March 15, 2024

Big Girls Don't Cry Review: Pooja Bhatt lends gravitas. Zoya Hussain is perfect as the teacher who unwittingly sparks an anti-patriarchy insurrection.

<i>Shaitaan</i> Review: Nothing More Scary Here Than The Fluffy Film Itself

Shaitaan Review: Nothing More Scary Here Than The Fluffy Film Itself

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday March 08, 2024

Shaitaan Review: Jyothika is the only one in the cast who is able to rise a bit above the sheer absurdity of the proceedings. The two male characters and the actors playing them don't stand a chance.
