‘A Classic Horror Story’ (Netflix Film, Review)

From the name of Netflix’s latest Italian horror film “A Classic Horror Story,” we can sense that this film intends to deal with horror film cliché but to what extent the directors duo Roberto De Feo and Paolo Strippoli are successful in narrating a story is the real question here. The film is now streaming […]

Short Film Review “The Missing Hand” (2016)

Bajirao Mastani (Movie Review)

When Art and Cinema take over logical thinking, practical issues, worldly problems, and every other thing remotely connected to reasoning, a Bajirao Mastani is produced.

It’s been nearly a decade since we […]

‘Lucy’ (2014) – Luc Besson’s Sci-Fi Overdrive

Luc Besson’s new sci-fi movie Lucy is as hollow as it is entertaining. You can very well imagine the kind of film Lucy might be with Besson as director. The French writer-director is known for his screenplay for many notable action movies and the direction of some punchy thrillers, including Leon: The Professional and The Messenger: The […]

Korean American filmmaker Jieho Lee’s debut directorial venture The Air I Breathe, albeit is not a critics’ choice, certainly has the star-cast and an intriguing plot that keep the viewers engaged for most of the time.
