Welcome to the Jungle movie review
Riding on the huge success of Welcome (2007) and Welcome Back (2015), the third installment of the Welcome franchise - Welcome to the Jungle attempts to revive the slapstick madness of its predecessors but struggles under its own colossal weight. While the original Welcome starring Nana Patekar, Anil Kapoor, Paresh Rawal with Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif, and Welcome Back which again had Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Paresh Rawal with John Abraham and Shruti Haasan were perfectly in sync with the cinematic sensibilities of their respective eras, this latest chaotic venture feels severely outdated. There is no actual adventure in the jungle as the film's title suggests.

Absurd Economics, Vanishing Humor in Welcome to the Jungle

Jolly LLB 3 movie review

Jolly LLB 3 opens with an oddly amateurish tone, featuring cringeworthy and implausible banter between its two Jollys—Arshad Warsi as Advocate Jagdish 'Jolly' Tyagi and Akshay Kumar as Advocate Jagdishwar 'Jolly' Mishra.

When a powerful business group unveils grand plans to transform Bikaner into the next Boston, small farmers find themselves sidelined. Their legitimate demands are ignored, and force is used to suppress dissent. What begins as a development dream soon spirals into a controversy Read More

 
Durgamati hindi movie review
Durgamati is a remake of Bhaagamathie the Telugu flick of 2018, directed by G Ashok who has also helmed the baton for this hindi version. The original was a big success in South and therefore to cash in on that success this movie was remade in Hindi by Akshay Kumar's company Cape of Good Films and produced by Bhushan Kumar of T-Series. Every once in a while we like to see a story which is different from the run-of-the-mill corruption scandal stories as seen on the silver screen. As the saying goes in Bollywood you make something a bit 'hatke' from other movies. Here is an example of 'hatke' as corruption is shown in the garb of horror. Initially when the movie starts it looks like all the characters are play acting, nothing seemed to be right and in its place it all looks very superficial and unconvincing. Taking a convicted murderer who is also an IAS officer to a secluded Haunted ....
