Vallavanukku Pullum Aayudham (Tamil, 2014)
A witty and wholesome entertainer that succeeds in livening up the audience, but wanders off into oblivion over the course of time.
Wadjda (Arabic, 2012)
For a normal story of childhood desire, Wadjda is brilliant and it strikes the right chords with what people’s ambitions are and how many sacrifices they are prepared to do to feed their ambitions. In doing so, the director has been satiating enough in the best possible way.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (English, 2014)
Spirited performances and sizzling chemistry from the lead pair makes up for the crowded screenplay! Could have been Sam Raimi’s “Spiderman 3” easily if not for the romantic angle which keeps us interested!
Frances Ha (English, 2013)
A film that grows on you as it charts the path of an irrational & sometimes irritating dreamer, endearingly enacted by Greta Gerwig.
Shaadi Ke Side Effects (Hindi, 2014)
A comical take on the life changing experiences that a happily married urban couple face with a new arrival, seasoned with the standard Indian household drama.
Ennamo Nadakkudhu (Tamil, 2014)
A racy action thriller with immense potential, but suffers due to misguided casting and indifferent acting that spoil the good work by the technical team.
Vaayai Moodi Pesavum (Tamil, 2014)
Not all ideas are good ideas & not all good ideas succeed. Vaayai Moodi Pesavum falls in the former category & deserves the results of the latter. A disappointing dip for the maker of Kaadhalil Sodhappuvadhu Eppadi.
Yennamo Yedho (Tamil, 2014)
A wannabe rom-com that fails to excite by running along a well-trodden path featuring some underwhelming performances.
The Ugly Truth (English, 2009)
‘The Ugly Truth’ is just another rom-com that offers laughs on many occasions with a done-to-death storyline. Expect a few ultra funny gags and you will be more than pleased.
Race Gurram (Telugu, 2014)
A race horse that keeps straying from its track, but will still run the distance. Forget logic, sit back and just enjoy the race.
