Final Girl (2015) – Abigail Breslin Stars In This Horror Action Thriller

Renowned photographer and music video director Tyler Shields’ directorial debut Final Girl although looks slick and stylish in the trailer, lacks content to be an engaging thriller.

‘Terminator Genisys’ – All For New-Age Viewers

The new film in the “Terminator” franchise ‘Terminator Genisys’ so far doesn’t have a great run in the Box Office, compared to its earlier films. But is it right to bring the film down considering the overall success of the franchise? I guess NO. Terminator Genisys has been in competition with the likes of Jurassic […]

Suspect X, Drishyam, Papanasam, Drishyam

The Malayalam film “Drishyam” (2013) featuring the legendary Mohanlal is an outstanding movie and has been adapted into numerous Indian languages, such as Hindi and Tamil.

Ever since Paranormal Activity is released, the found-footage style of filmmaking has become a norm in the horror genre.

However, one needs to be particular about […]

Once Were Warriors (1994)

I was going through some history books, particularly on tribal culture, when one of my friends suggested exploring a few movies and one of those was “Once Were Warriors”. With no such basic knowledge of the context of this 1994-released New Zealand production, when I finally got to watch this recently on DVD, I was […]

‘Tomorrowland’ (Review) – Bit Confusing, Yet Entertaining

For not watching enough movies in the last couple of months, when I finally got to watch one this weekend, it was satisfying even though the movie ‘Tomorrowland’ was not that great in storytelling. Sometimes it confuses and sometimes amazes me with the conceptualization of a single idea of building a futuristic city situated in some alternate […]
