Times of India Movie Reviews
- Reporting Live
Reporting Live raises an important question about the cost of exposing the truth, but never creates enough urgency to make that cost truly resonate. There’s a solid story here; it just needed sharper writing and more bite.
- 13 days ago 9 Oct 26, 12:30pm - - Prem Keetanu
At 138 minutes, Prem Keetanu is a breezy rom-com that delivers on humour and youthful charm, even if its predictable plot and limited emotional depth keep it within familiar genre territory.
- 20 days ago 2 Oct 26, 12:00pm - - Drishyam: The Conclusion
Drishyam 3 may not reinvent the game, but it knows exactly how to keep you playing. Unlike the previous instalments, this film is not a remake of a Malayalam original. Instead, it features an original Hindi script developed independently to give the Bollywood franchise a definitive finale.
- 20 days ago 2 Oct 26, 6:05am - - Pooja Meri Jaan
Pooja Meri Jaan may not deliver a Pink-style courtroom punch, but it gives you plenty to debate.
- 21 days ago 1 Oct 26, 9:00pm - - Mahakavya Shri Ramayan Katha – Shri Ram Ki
Despite the scale of the story it takes on, the episodic storytelling, dated visual treatment and uneven effects make Mahakavya Shri Ramayan resemble an old-fashioned television series rather than a cinematic experience. The film may only appeal to devout audiences.
- 27 days ago 25 Sep 26, 3:25pm - - Don't Be Shy
DBS borrows the fluff of a Disney musical and the tropes of an American high school, but works best when it embraces its desi heart.
- 27 days ago 25 Sep 26, 10:38am - - The Vvaan: Force Of The Forrest
The Vvaan: Force of the Forrest has the ingredients of a more layered fantasy thriller but does not bring them together consistently. Its folklore, atmosphere and visual ambition are its strongest elements, while the rushed character development and increasingly conventional supernatural conflict limit its impact.
- 27 days ago 25 Sep 26, 10:00am - - Love Lottery
Love Lottery attempts to examine a subject that Hindi cinema has often approached from the perspective of women — domestic abuse, toxic relationships and the power dynamics within marriage — by shifting the lens towards a man trapped in a troubled relationship.
- 28 days ago 24 Sep 26, 12:00pm - - Hanuman Ansh
Rather than presenting a conventional biopic, the film focuses on the spiritual philosophy behind the saint's life — that love, compassion and seva can become a path to the divine.
- 31 days ago 21 Sep 26, 7:39pm - - Lust Stories 3
It may not consistently match the impact of its predecessors, but its sincerity and willingness to start conversations about intimacy and female pleasure make Lust Stories 3 a watchable addition to the series.
- 34 days ago 18 Sep 26, 12:30pm - - Om Ka Hari
The film’s performances and observations on family relationships make it a decent watch.
- 35 days ago 17 Sep 26, 7:00pm - - Daayra
Daayra raises the right questions, even if its central confrontation needed sharper, more evenly matched arguments.
- 35 days ago 17 Sep 26, 12:25pm - - Haiwaan
With a runtime of 2 hours and 44 minutes, the film ultimately stretches a thin premise far beyond its limits leaving little impact by the time it ends.
- 41 days ago 11 Sep 26, 10:00am - - Last Man in Tower
The film explores our inherent tussle between preserving simpler times, community and culture, and embracing the promise of a better tomorrow.
- 41 days ago 11 Sep 26, 8:23am - - Ghamasaan
On the whole, 'Ghamasaan' is not among director Tigmanshu Dhulia's best works. While it had an interesting premise to delve into and does hold up in parts, the film is ultimately let down by its disjointed storytelling.
- 42 days ago 11 Sep 26, 12:00am - - Mahaprabhu Jagannath
A decent family watch, especially for children interested in mythology, fantasy adventures and colourful animated worlds.
- 49 days ago 3 Sep 26, 11:36pm - - Jeevan Ya Bheema Con?
The film’s script and screenplay may have looked good on paper, but they falter in execution. The story promises an interesting pivot time and again, only to fall short of pulling off the con.
- 49 days ago 3 Sep 26, 10:00pm - - Gandhari
Taapsee Pannu’s rescue thriller unfolds like a 90s-style drama in search of a contemporary voice. It gets lost in its own ambitions, desperately trying to be everything at once.
- 49 days ago 3 Sep 26, 12:30pm - - Black Box
Black Box is slick, atmospheric and occasionally unsettling, but its familiar premise, underdeveloped characters and uneven screenplay prevent it from rising above genre convention.
- 50 days ago 2 Sep 26, 5:42pm - - Babita Singh Reporting
For viewers drawn to melancholic, contemplative and character-driven thrillers, Babita Singh Reporting offers a quietly powerful experience that lingers beyond its central mystery.
