In a single word, Mastiii 4 is - Atrocious. Elaborated, this adult comedy film is full of crass boggy humour offering you outdated gags and zero laughs. This franchisee is nowhere near the first part Masti and it just delivers more sickening feeling than comedy.
Except for Riteish Deshmukh who puts up foolish looks quite naturally and acts like a weirdo (realistically), Vivek Oberoi and Aftab Shivdasani overdo their parts and appear unreal. It is a pity to see such brilliant producers and the director who have come up with a film that is laden with toilet humor, loud performances and gags which have already been circulated in WhatsApp groups long time ago.
Franchise fatigue at its lowest standard
Directed by Milap Milan Zaveri who is also involved with the story and screenplay, the fourth installment in the adult comedy franchise reunite ....

Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning has thrilling chases, intense combat and the Mission Impossible theme, and definitely the fit and pleasant Tom Cruise performing stunts on ground, air and underwater.
What is missing are the breathtaking worldwide locations like the earlier films showcased Dubai, Paris, London, Norway, Morocco, Prague, Australia, Rome among many. Instead the first half is centred around the dark locations of tunnels and underground, with second half mostly in the submarine, underwater, except the stretched airplane chase and stunts actually performed by Tom Cruise.

The kind of movies (most of them) that have been releasing on the OTT platform due to the pandemic situation was making one lose faith in the movie making abilities of Bollywood hoi-poloi with no-brainers like Radhe and co. unleashed on us. Mimi film review...
Had practically given up on these films, which led to disillusionment building up, it made me wonder are we making films for over a hundred years and here's where we have reached dishing out illogical movies viewing which even the frontbenchers would cringe.
However amid all this gloom there is a silver lining in the form of Mimi. It is like a breath of fresh air in the out laying stench. Not only are we exploring a new topic on which some grim/overtly emotional movies have been made but this one is different. Not only is the story good but also well made (could have easily gone down the dumps).
Great screenplay. Tight clo ....

Chanced upon a little known gory murder mystery which goes by the name of Mrs Serial Killer is streaming now on Netflix and would have gone unnoticed if I was not sifting through the movies that I want to see.
Released almost a year ago, Mrs Serial Killer is really less known as there was no fanfare or much hype and hoola created on its launch. It has got a few A-listers in its acting roll call namely Jacqueline Fernandez in the title role and also the protagonist is the new slasher in town and Manoj Bajpai plays her doctor husband with Mohit Raina playing a cop who is also her ex-lover, you get the love triangle drift by now isn't it?
The other characters, there is nothing much to write home about they flit in ànd out throughout the movie. The thing that irritates you as the movie begins, is that the events are too sudden and in your face, disjoint and the characters behave as if ....

Yet another gangster movie Mumbai Saga explores the period between mid eighties and mid nineties when Mumbai's small scale businesses were run on the mercy of the local strong man who would take protection money from these small and roadside enterprises. The film had a theatrical release on 19 March 2021 and is now streaming on Prime.
Mumbai Saga also explores the unholy nexus between the Police-Politician and the gangster. This was a strange period as the at one hand the polititians provided protection as well as encouraged intergang rivalry as and when it deemed fit in their scheme of things. On the other hand they also ordered the police to finish off the gang in encounters when the gangs became too hot to handle for them or they grew bigger than their own shoes.
This movie is made in the same mould and style like say the 'Shootout at Wadala' or 'A Shootout at Lokhandwala' and i ....
