Movie Review: The Shallows

I know why this movie got good reviews: Pretty girl wearing bare minimum required to avoid censorship. Gorgeous locales and alluring waters. A creature that everyone loves to hate viz The Great White. The mysterious solitary seagull. No bizarre sharky behavior barring well...being too chomp-chomp-chomp! Eloquent wasn't it? But snark aside so many things are... Continue Reading →

Movie Review: Logan

Wolverine. Aged. Not Healing at the speed of light. Dying....oops! Spoiler alert! Logan is the most extreme addition to the Marvel comic-movie universe till date. I'd say it leaves Deadpool behind solely because there's just one of Deadpool and there's more than one individual who bares their claws in this movie. Else Deadpool was slicker,...

Kiddy Movie Reco: Turbo

We LOVE animated movies in this household. Especially about all sorts of creatures you normally wouldn't encounter in your day to day life or even if you did, you wouldn't give them a second thought. Turbo falls into the second category. The story of a garden snail who dreams of the Indy 500 and his... Continue Reading →

Under Siege- Always A Good Idea

Most movie reviews start with a title that lets you know that there's a review coming your way. Mine hasn't done that. Tough. Steven Seagal may be bloated and a Putin-loving, firearms-promoting Buddhist but many, many, many years ago he was slightly attractive (to Moi) and was kicking ass in his own minimalistic way. I...

Movie Review-Captain America: Civil War

It's been AGES since I saw a movie on the same day it released. Probably not since 04 but then that's too far into the past for me to dredge up the when and wherefores. I generally enjoy the offerings from the Marvel universe. Captain America is the typical boy scout but he's easy on... Continue Reading →

Movie Review: Get Hard

I seldom get around to watching new movies while they are still new. But atleast I got to this movie before a new calendar year started. And why is that important? Because I laughed until I wheezed, gasped and cried after a really, really long time. And that, in my book, is priceless! So the movie... Continue Reading →

Movie Review: Minions

In a nutshell? It's for kids and those who are entirely too gaga about these little yellow capsules that go jumping, babbling about. But crack the nut and you are still left with a movie that doesn't have much of a story line and is a rather lame-ish precursor to Despicable Me. They ARE cute.... Continue Reading →

Movie Review: Inside Out

All that glitters is not gold and every animated flick isn't just a kiddy movie. When I made plans for Inside Out I didn't expect to see a movie that was as well fleshed-out, had a lot of important things to convey and loads of nuances. That it's animated is just the icing on the... Continue Reading →

Movie Review: Jurassic World

We're a pro-dino family. The more teeth, the better. The bigger, the better. So it was a forgone conclusion that we not only had to watch this movie but had to appreciate things about it. But all dino bias aside here's what's good about it... The story couldn't have any entirely new twist in it... Continue Reading →

Movie Review: Home

MLM has summer holidays and it's driving me up the wall. A movie seemed like a good way to get him to climb other walls outside the home. And because it's his summer vacation I'll keep it short. Barring the creation of the Boovs where Jim Parson's Sheldon Cooper-manner of talking, albeit with grammatical errors,... Continue Reading →
