Mauje Dariya movie review
Mauje Dariya is a vibrant Gujarati comedy-drama directed by Parry Majmudar that balances youthful ambition with lighthearted social commentary. The film serves as a poignant highlight of India’s young generation that is ambitious, hardworking, and willing to do what it takes to rise while learning valuable lessons along the way. The film follows a delivery boy who takes a risky job running alcohol (that is prohibited in the state) to fund his father’s surgery. The story takes a chaotic turn during a wealthy client’s party when a gunshot leads to mass unconsciousness and collective amnesia, leaving the characters to untangle a murder scheme amidst identity confusion. A standout element is its handling of alcohol prohibition in Gujarat. The script offers a sharp social critique by capturing the simmering frustration of a generation caught between Western lifestyle aspirations a ....

Mayasabha movie review
Rahi Anil Barve presents a contemporary representation of the magical palace in Mahabharata to convey the spiritual meaning through material form that focuses on a cinema hall in atmospheric ruins. Delving deeper is the core characteristic of greed in humans. Mayasabha is an abstract thriller - not meant for the masses. The hall of Illusion - Mayasabha is a single-location immersive film that explores the corrosive nature of greed. Though it carves out its own idiosyncratic, theatrical identity. Mayasabha's most important character is a dilapidated Mumbai cinema hall that reeks "moral rot and decay" through meticulously layered smoke, red hues, and ghostly shadows.

Readers expecting a traditional thriller would get 'lost in the fog'

Meant for those devoted moviegoers, especially the ones who are knowledgeable about the cinema. What stand ....

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 Elaborated, this adult comedy film is full of crass boggy humour offering you outdated gags and zero laughs.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 Final Reckoning movie review
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. President of the United States of America sends a voice note to Ethan recounting the adventures he pulled out in the last thirty years bringing nostalgia of the several earlier missions that Ethan accomplished. Picking up from it's previous film MI - Dead Reckoning, an artificial intelligence ....

My Melbourne movie review
Unlike any mainstream Bollywood film, My Melbourne is an anthology consisting of four unique stories, directed by renowned Bollywood filmmakers - Onir, Kabir Khan, Rima Das, and Imtiaz Ali. These collective stories explore themes of identity, diversity, resilience that are set against the multicultural and dynamic backdrop of Melbourne, Australia. Each of the four stories are universally relatable and they seamlessly transition into other through unique narratives.

Main Raj Kapoor Ho Gaya movie review
The film Main Raj Kapoor Ho Gaya revolves around Raj (Manav Sohal) and Suman (Arshin Mehta) who have a happy marriage until an unfortunate incident takes place and claims Suman’s life, forcing Raj to become an alcoholic a la Devdas. The film is about a man who, despite being born in a world full of hoggish beliefs, chooses to live a life of truth and honesty and believes in the fact that God created everyone as equals. In a strange turn of events, one fateful night, his mundane life turns upside down when he shelters and protects a woman (Nazia Hussain) from goons. From now onwards a strange relationship develops wherein she is not able to recollect anything from her past and he who desperately wants to forget his past. Though music by Vilyui Goswami is the saving grace of the film which has predictable plot and illogical development of its screenplay by the actor-producer-direc ....
