There are two reasons to press play on After the Hunt, currently sitting on Amazon Prime like a moody cat that may or may not scratch you: Julia Roberts and Andrew Garfield. Honestly, that should be enough. These are stalwarts. Icons. Eyebrow-raising, smile-flashing, megawatt sensations who usually guarantee at least a popcorn-worthy evening. But somewhereContinue reading “After the Hunt — A Movie Review for People Who Thought They Were Smarter Than They Are”

Selling the OC – Season 4 Review : A Dramatic Detox or a Fresh-Brewed Mess?
If we’re being honest, I started Season 4 of Selling the OC mainly because I needed closure on the world’s longest-running “Are they? Aren’t they? Will they? Should they?” situationship between Alex Hall and Tyler Stanaland. It’s like the producers have a secret button labelled “EXTEND TENSION” and they keep slapping it like it owesContinue reading “Selling the OC – Season 4 Review : A Dramatic Detox or a Fresh-Brewed Mess?”
Selling Sunset Season 9 Review— Glamour, Grit, and Grown-Woman Gossip at Its Finest
Streaming now on Netflix Ah, Selling Sunset — the only show that can make a grown adult believe that wearing a sequined minidress to a house viewing is perfectly normal. Season 9 has finally dropped, and like many fans who survived the emotional chaos of Season 8, I braced myself for another high-gloss, high-drama, high-heelsContinue reading “Selling Sunset Season 9 Review— Glamour, Grit, and Grown-Woman Gossip at Its Finest”
Review: The Ex-Wife Season 1 — Love, Lies, and a Whole Lot of Ex-tra Drama
Streaming on Amazon Prime Let’s start with the title — The Ex-Wife. Simple, sharp, and oh-so-suggestive. Because let’s be honest — if there’s one thing people love more than falling in love, it’s watching other people’s relationships fall apart. Add a messy triangle (or, in this case, something more like a Bermuda Triangle of emotions),Continue reading “Review: The Ex-Wife Season 1 — Love, Lies, and a Whole Lot of Ex-tra Drama”
Review: Wilderness (Amazon Prime) – A Honeymoon Gone Homicidal
If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if Eat, Pray, Love went on a road trip with Gone Girl, Wilderness might just be your answer — minus the yoga and plus a hefty dose of simmering rage.

I See You : Netflix Movie Review
There are few movies that manage to do what I See You does: build suspense so patiently, with so many layers, that by the time the final twist hits, you’re both stunned and admiring how every earlier scene was bait, misdirection, or subtle foreshadowing. It’s not flashy horror, it’s not jump-scare overload — instead itContinue reading “I See You : Netflix Movie Review”
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”
