Maa : Netflix Movie Review

Kajol is back on the big screen, and that’s always… an experience. She has this knack for commanding attention—loud, brash, occasionally abrasive—but undeniably watchable. Even if you don’t always love the way she plays her characters, you end up glued to her performance because she brings a certain intensity that refuses to be ignored. InContinue reading “Maa : Netflix Movie Review”

The Thursday Murder Club – Netflix, Movie Review

First, let’s talk cast. Helen Mirren. Pierce Brosnan. Celia Imrie. Ben Kingsley, a smattering of other “I-know-that-face” actors who’ve been on posters, marquees, and award podiums. You’d think with that lineup, we’d be signing up for a cinematic feast. Instead, what we get is more like a lukewarm buffet at a retirement home. Edible, sure.Continue reading “The Thursday Murder Club – Netflix, Movie Review”

Metro… In Dino, Netflix ; Movie Review

First of all, the fact that I survived Metro… In Dino deserves a medal, or at the very least, a lifetime supply of aspirin. This wasn’t a movie. This was an endurance test disguised as cinema. From the opening frame to the final, merciful credit roll, it went from one nonsensical situation to another, likeContinue reading “Metro… In Dino, Netflix ; Movie Review”

Jaaran – A Twisted Little Gem that Hooks You and Won’t Let Go

Last Saturday, I walked into Jaaran at the Goa Marathi Film Festival with all the enthusiasm of someone about to sit through a film in a language they don’t speak. My inner voice was already prepping for polite nods and vague “It was nice” reviews afterwards. But here’s the thing — Jaaran didn’t just changeContinue reading “Jaaran – A Twisted Little Gem that Hooks You and Won’t Let Go”

Movie Review: Oddity – When Horror Gets a Twin Upgrade

So, I walked into Oddity expecting your usual creepy haunted house fare. You know the drill—squeaky floors, flickering lights, one suspiciously well-timed thunderclap. But no, Oddity said, “Hold my ghost.” It starts off smooth—like, too smooth. You’re lulled into this eerie, calm-before-the-storm kind of vibe, the kind where you know things are going to goContinue reading “Movie Review: Oddity – When Horror Gets a Twin Upgrade”

The Better Sister, Amazon Prime Review– A Stylish Thriller with a Few Stumbles

Let’s get one thing straight: I’ve followed Jessica Biel’s work for a while now — from The Sinner to her various film choices, some hits, some misses, but always intriguing. So when The Better Sister dropped on Netflix, I was naturally curious. And while this show might not reach the same psychological depths as TheContinue reading “The Better Sister, Amazon Prime Review– A Stylish Thriller with a Few Stumbles”

Review: Nine Perfect Strangers, Amazon Prime– A Slow-Burning Retreat That Struggles to Transform

When you hear the words “wellness retreat,” you don’t usually expect psychedelic drugs, deep-seated trauma, and a slightly unhinged Nicole Kidman looming over a group of emotionally unstable guests. But Nine Perfect Strangers, the 8-part Hulu/Amazon Prime miniseries based on Liane Moriarty’s novel, is anything but your typical self-care getaway. Set in the serene yetContinue reading “Review: Nine Perfect Strangers, Amazon Prime– A Slow-Burning Retreat That Struggles to Transform”

Netflix’s Adolescence Review – A Masterpiece That Hits Like a Freight Train

You know that show that’s been sitting on your Netflix queue forever? The one you keep scrolling past because you’re just not in the mood for something heavy? That was Adolescence for me. I’d seen the rave reviews, heard the whispers about its brilliance, but I wasn’t quite ready to dive into something so intense.Continue reading “Netflix’s Adolescence Review – A Masterpiece That Hits Like a Freight Train”

Movie Review: Apartment 7A – A Twisted, Twirling Descent into Madness (and Into Rosemary’s Baby)

There are movies that surprise you, and then there are movies that make you think they won’t surprise you, only to pull the rug from under you when you least expect it. Apartment 7A, now streaming on Netflix, falls neatly into the latter category. A psychological horror-thriller, it takes Rosemary’s Baby, rewinds the clock, andContinue reading “Movie Review: Apartment 7A – A Twisted, Twirling Descent into Madness (and Into Rosemary’s Baby)”

Blink Twice: Movie Review (Netflix)

Let me start by saying: when I saw Channing Tatum’s name pop up as the lead in Blink Twice on Netflix, my first thought was, “Wait—Magic Mike meets suspense thriller? Really?” I mean, Channing’s known for his dance moves and charming smirk, not exactly for brooding roles in movies where the plot takes a darkContinue reading “Blink Twice: Movie Review (Netflix)”
