Times of India Movie Reviews
- newAlmost Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat
Almost Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat is a love story fraught with regular societal challenges and clichés, told in a unique way. But beyond that it falls woefully short of making this film an entertaining and a deeply engaging experience. Like Alaya’s character Amrita tells Yaqub after their long and arduous journey, “Na koi plan hai, na purpose” – well, our thought precisely.
- 22 hours ago 3 Feb 23, 11:14am - - newFaraaz
Faraaz is adequately gripping and impactful. It, however, isn’t as claustrophobic and gut-wrenching as a ‘Neerja’ or ‘Hotel Mumbai’.
- 22 hours ago 3 Feb 23, 11:00am - - Daman
‘DAMaN’s beauty lies in its realism and ability to give hope in a hopeless scenario. Its source material is so strong that it doesn’t require any kind of frills to touch your heart. This simple and unwavering tale of a doctor’s indomitable spirit is a winner all the way.
- 2 days ago 2 Feb 23, 3:22pm - - Who Am I
‘Who Am I’ sets out as an attempt to resonate and connect with our deep-rooted anxieties, fears and existential questions. Far from that it doesn’t leave you any wiser, emotionally richer or cinematically satisfied.
- 3 days ago 31 Jan 23, 9:26pm - - Operation Fryday
‘Operation Fryday’ could have been a pleasant watch if it had been released a decade ago when it was actually shot. But, for now, it's best to give it a pass.
- 4 days ago 30 Jan 23, 11:08pm - - Gandhi Godse Ek Yudh
'Gandhi Godse: Ek Yudh' is watchable if you can patiently sit through the first part because the second half is gripping. But, it may disappoint those invested in the nation’s history.
- 9 days ago 26 Jan 23, 1:39am - - Pathaan
'Pathaan' has all the ingredients of a masala potboiler — slowmo entries, iconic battle of good versus bad and most importantly a sexy-smouldering Shah Rukh Khan, who can fight the good fight on and off the screen.
- 10 days ago 25 Jan 23, 10:27am - - Mission Majnu
Mission Majnu is gripping in parts, but it’s too convenient, which takes away from the narrative. All in all, you will enjoy it if viewed without getting into the nuances.
- 15 days ago 20 Jan 23, 1:30pm - - Chhatriwali
Overall, it's a light-hearted film that is predictable and could have been packaged and delivered more creatively and uniquely. Despite this, Chhatriwali is watchable with the right intent.
- 15 days ago 20 Jan 23, 12:01am - - Zindagi Shatranj Hai
This 85-minute thriller is sharp and keeps you on edge until the intermission, but it loses its grip and becomes predictable once events begin to unfold.
- 16 days ago 19 Jan 23, 3:45pm - - Sachin The Ultimate Winner
Overall, the maker's sole intention is to send a wake-up call to the younger generation to stay focused and committed to achieving their dreams and reaching their desired destination. But it's lame execution and crippled screenplay make it a passable film!
- 22 days ago 13 Jan 23, 12:00pm - - Gunchakkar
‘Gunchakkar’ starts off with a lot of promise but ends up being a confusing but entertaining chakkar to watch once.
- 23 days ago 12 Jan 23, 1:03pm - - Lakadbaggha
'Lakadbaggha' had a lot of potential, but its mediocre execution reduced it to a barely passable film.
- 23 days ago 12 Jan 23, 11:42am - - Kuttey
'Kuttey' isn't exactly a deep, dark satire made to perfection but a widly entertaining mishmash of guns, goons and gaalis.
- 24 days ago 11 Jan 23, 2:30pm - - Mumbai Mafia: Police vs The Underworld
For years, the underbelly and underworld of Mumbai has lured many filmmakers to explore the subject and with 'Mumbai Mafia - Police vs the Underworld' the makers do manage to bring out some of the chilling and riveting stories behind ' the organised crime capital of the country'.
- 28 days ago 6 Jan 23, 11:01pm - - The Y
'The Y' is not cheapjack or gimmicky and would have benefitted from a tighter screenplay and a better storyline because the spooky ambience and the fear factor are there.
- 30 days ago 5 Jan 23, 4:12pm - - Ek Chup
You can view this film for any reason, but it is definitely worth watching, especially for its efforts to show victims of the “shadow pandemic” and Mona Singh’s outstanding performance.
- 31 days ago 3 Jan 23, 10:39pm - - Cirkus
‘Cirkus’ is a busy film filled with a battery of characters put together with a purpose to make us laugh, but is far from that. Entertaining the audience with slapstick comedy and drama is a tightrope that Rohit Shetty has successfully walked before but this time he seems to have tripped several times along the way.
- 43 days ago 23 Dec 22, 10:01am - - Shadyantra
'Shadyantra' is entertaining if you're in the mood for a staged play, but if you're looking for some out-of-the-box entertainment, you should tread carefully because this appears to be a half-baked effort.
- 45 days ago 20 Dec 22, 11:52pm - - Trahimam
Directed by Dushyant Pratap Singh, the movie suffers from a slipshod screenplay where none of the tracks are developed completely.
