Red Notice is just another Green notice for the Ryan Reynolds brand of fun

Red Notice features three megastars, a silly premise but all can be forgiven for a dose of Ryan Reynolds being his usual self.

The Sky Is Pink Review: A Tender Family Drama Shouldered By an Evocative Priyanka Chopra

The Sky Is Pink feels less like a biopic of a dead teenager and more like an unabashed tribute to the two fighters who volunteered to a losing battle for over two decades. It’s predictable and familiar yet affecting and tender, especially as an examination of unconditional caregiving.

74 Days and Counting: How We All Have Failed the Trapped Meghalaya Miners

Though the half-hearted response of the Meghalaya government in organising rescue operations for the miners trapped in a rat-hole mine in Meghalaya is appalling, let’s not hold the politicians to a higher standard. Our apathy cannot be ignored; in fact, it only highlights the disregard we have for the lives of the poor in our country.

Why There Can Be No Other Vinod Khanna

Nobody could ever aspire to be Vinod Khanna. The chiselled looks, the rugged sexuality, the undisguised charm, he was all, and more, that a hero could be. Without trying too hard.

The Accidental Prime Minister Review: A Disappointing Launch for the BJP’s 2019 Campaign

Somewhere in his failure to make a good, authentic film on the 10 years of UPA, Vijay Gutte delivers a movie that resembles the UPA era – incoherent, helmed by corrupt people, and that familiar feeling of wondering when the fuck you’ll get done with this bullshit. If this is the launch of the BJP 2019 campaign, I am pretty disappointed.
