Highest 2 Lowest – Indeed!
Spike Lee’s Highest 2 Lowest reworks Ed McBain’s King’s Ransom through a New York prism and keeps Akira Kurosawa’s moral heartbeat close at hand. The surface story is simple: David King (Denzel Washington), a music-industry tycoon, faces a kidnapping that forces him to weigh money, reputation, and conscience. Lee stages this as a moral geography—glittering […]
One Battle After Another – One Breath At A Time!
Paul Thomas Anderson is one of the few contemporary filmmakers whose voice carries across very different films: the ensemble chaos of Boogie Nights and Magnolia, the domestic tension of Phantom Thread, the paranoid tenderness of The Master. His work borrows structural daring from Altman and moral intensity from Scorsese, yet it always feels unmistakably his […]
Weapons – A film that’s not low on ammunition
Set in the small town of Maybrook, Weapons begins with a nightmare: nearly all of teacher Justine Gandy’s (Julia Garner) students vanish overnight. Only one boy, Alex (Cary Christopher), remains—a haunting detail that throws Justine into the crosshairs of the community, the media, and her own alcoholism. From here, the film unfolds across six chapters, […]
F1: The Movie – Racing extravagantly in the same old lanes!
At its wheel, this film isn’t simply about engines roaring back to life—it’s about a man who once ruled the grid returning for one last lap, and a younger driver determined to carve his place where legends are born. Their pairing begins as an unlikely alliance—one holding experience like an anchor, the other charging forward […]
28 Years later, Better Never Than Late!
Nearly three decades after the Rage virus devastated Britain, civilization has managed to rebuild itself into scattered, fortified communities. The infected—now known as “the horde”—still roam the wasteland, but humanity has learned to survive behind walls and protocols.

The Amateur – Down Low, Too Slow! Maybe!
In the golden age of Cold War spy thrillers, tension lived in alleys, hand-offs, and whispers. Today, espionage has shifted to keyboards, codes, and silent battles waged in cyberspace. The Amateur, directed by James Hawes, leans fully into this digital reality. That choice is bold—but it’s also the film’s greatest gamble. Charlie Heller, a brilliant […]
DROP – Drops the Plot, Not the Ball
When Violet, a savvy yet guarded young woman, agrees to meet a man she barely knows for a casual first date, the worst she expects is an awkward evening—not a night that spirals into a high-stakes psychological game. A mysterious phone is dropped at her feet—literally—and with it, a chain of cryptic instructions begins. The […]
UNTILL DAWN: Be Kind, Don’t Rewind!
A year after her sister Melanie vanishes, Clover (Ella Rubin) gathers a group of friends and heads to Glore Valley — a snowy, isolated ghost town steeped in local legend. But what begins as a search for closure quickly spirals into a waking nightmare. The group is cursed to relive the same horrific night over […]
Companion – Dating with a Toggle!
It’s a rare thing to walk into a film blind these days — no trailer, no thumbnails, no algorithmic spoilers clawing at your curiosity. I did exactly that with Companion, and if there’s one piece of advice this review offers before we dig in, it’s this: do the same. Because once you know what Iris […]
Mickey 17 – The Only Thing Scarier Than Death Is… a Safe Third Act!
Bong Joon Ho doesn’t enter cinema. He inhabits it, reshapes it, and invites us to peer into altered reflections of our own world. Mickey 17 is no different in its ambition: it introduces us to a future that’s less about lasers and more about systems, sacrifice, and the uncomfortable question of what survives when your […]
