Lootcase Movie Review: Kunal Kemmu And Cast Have A Blast But Crime Caper Fails To Cash In

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday July 31, 2020

Lootcase Movie Review: Kunal Kemmu is relatable as a man next door. Rasika Dugal is flawless as the feckless homemaker who harangues her husband for failing to bring home enough dough.

<I>Shakuntala Devi </i> Movie Review: The Numbers Add Up Nicely With A Feisty Vidya Balan

Shakuntala Devi Movie Review: The Numbers Add Up Nicely With A Feisty Vidya Balan

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday July 31, 2020

Shakuntala Devi Movie Review: It's easy to be put in the shade when the star is this good but Sanya Malhotra conveys to perfection the emotions of a girl at odds with her mother's global fame.

<i>Avrodh</i> Review: Amit Sadh Is Solid But Hobbled By Dreary Narrative

Avrodh Review: Amit Sadh Is Solid But Hobbled By Dreary Narrative

Written by Saibal Chatterjee | Thursday July 30, 2020

Avrodh Review: The surgical strike story is tweaked ever so slightly in the hope of creating some space for manoeuvre but the changes fail to dispel a sense of deja vu.

<I>Yaara</i> Movie Review: Vidyut Jammwal's Action Film Has Its Moments - But Too Few And Far Apart

Yaara Movie Review: Vidyut Jammwal's Action Film Has Its Moments - But Too Few And Far Apart

Saibal Chatterjee | Thursday July 30, 2020

Yaara Movie Review: Vidyut Jammwal, Amit Sadh, Shruti Haasan, Vijay Varma and Kenny Basumatary flail about aimlessly because of the patchy screenplay. None, barring Jammwal to an extent, is allowed to settle into a stable rhythm.

<i>Dil Bechara</i> Movie Review: Cannot Help Falling In Love With Sushant Singh Rajput And Sanjana Sanghi

Dil Bechara Movie Review: Cannot Help Falling In Love With Sushant Singh Rajput And Sanjana Sanghi

Saibal Chatterjee | Saturday July 25, 2020

Dil Bechara Movie Review: The film will obviously always belong to Sushant Singh Rajput - on the money all the way, his performance demonstrates exactly why the chops he possessed weren't ordinary.

<i>The Old Guard</i> Review: Charlize Theron Is In Fine Fettle In Spin On Superhero Genre

The Old Guard Review: Charlize Theron Is In Fine Fettle In Spin On Superhero Genre

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday July 10, 2020

The Old Guard Review: The eternal female warrior who spearheads the five-member army is one of a kind - a timeless superhero who is so good at her job that she can admit that she is tired of saving mankind without facing the risk of being believed.

<I>Breathe: Into The Shadows</I> Review - Abhishek Bachchan's Show Is Low On Oxygen

Breathe: Into The Shadows Review - Abhishek Bachchan's Show Is Low On Oxygen

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday July 10, 2020

Breathe: Into The Shadows Review: It is livened up occasionally by actors Saiyami Kher, Shradha Kaul, Shruti Bapna, Shataf Figar and Resham Shrivardhankar.

<i>Undekhi</i> Review: The Web-Series Is Buoyed By A Handful Of Solid Performances

Undekhi Review: The Web-Series Is Buoyed By A Handful Of Solid Performances

Saibal Chatterjee | Thursday July 09, 2020

Undekhi Review: The show more than makes up for what it lacks in terms of star power with its twists, turns and thriller trappings.

<i> Bhonsle</i> Review: Manoj Bajpayee's Spectacular Performance Keeps Film On Tight Leash

Bhonsle Review: Manoj Bajpayee's Spectacular Performance Keeps Film On Tight Leash

Written by Saibal Chatterjee | Friday June 26, 2020

Bhonsle Review: A searing, shattering statement on lives engulfed in the darkness of a bright, bustling city.

<i>Bulbbul</i> Review: Tripti Dimri Justifies Top Billing In Feminist Fable

Bulbbul Review: Tripti Dimri Justifies Top Billing In Feminist Fable

Saibal Chatterjee | Wednesday June 24, 2020

Bulbbul Review: Rahul Bose, cast against type, is terrific. Paoli Dam, playing a role that has multiple shades, is remarkably steady. Parambrata Chattopadhyay and Avinash Tiwary pull their weight in tandem.

<I>Aarya</i> Review: Crime Drama Is Uneven, Sushmita Sen Isn't

Aarya Review: Crime Drama Is Uneven, Sushmita Sen Isn't

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday June 19, 2020

Aarya Review: Sushmita Sen holds the series together with her natural ability to fill every frame with her commanding presence.

<I>Your Honor</i> Review: Jimmy Sheirgill Powers Absorbing Drama

Your Honor Review: Jimmy Sheirgill Powers Absorbing Drama

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday June 19, 2020

Your Honor Review: Mita Vashisht is brilliant as the simmering, sniggering, stonewalling police officer, Varun Badola stands tall in the guise of a family man forced by circumstances to stoop low.

<I> Artemis Fowl</i> Review: A Plunge Into The Lower Depths Of Nothingness

Artemis Fowl Review: A Plunge Into The Lower Depths Of Nothingness

Written by Saibal Chatterjee | Friday June 12, 2020

Artemis Fowl Review: A bumpy, rudderless ride despite the fact that its runtime is only 95 minutes. The film does not manage a major lift off. Even its fairies exude no charm.

<I>Gulabo Sitabo</I> Review: Amitabh Bachchan Is A Hoot, Ayushmann Khurrana Hits The Right Notes

Gulabo Sitabo Review: Amitabh Bachchan Is A Hoot, Ayushmann Khurrana Hits The Right Notes

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday June 12, 2020

Gulabo Sitabo Review: With the actors giving the film their all - Amitabh Bachchan's wizened, hunchbacked, curmudgeonly act is the main propellant - Gulabo Sitabo works even when not much seems to be happening on the screen.

<i>Chintu Ka Birthday</i> Review: Able Writing, Fine Acting Give This A Feel-Good Air

Chintu Ka Birthday Review: Able Writing, Fine Acting Give This A Feel-Good Air

Saibal Chatterjee | Friday June 05, 2020

Chintu Ka Birthday Review: Solid performances from Vinay Pathak and his two proven co-actors (Tillotama Shome and Seema Pahwa), a tidy screenplay that does well to stay within its limits and a theme that holds a fair bit of water.
