Film: The Raid - Redemption
Cast: Iko Uwais, Ananda George and Ray Sahetapy
Director: Gareth Evans

The film, The Raid - Redemption, is packed with great action consisting of the meanest physical moves in form of martial arts.

Basically, there are two types of action films - super technological special effects fare and hand-to-hand physical action. While Hollywood has excelled in the former, the Asian countries have mastered the latter.

Thus, you have had different stars of the Orient, whose physicality shocked audiences as much as it thrilled them. Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and more...

Starring: Arjun Kapoor, Parineeti Chopra
Director: Habib Faisal

Much was expected out of Arjun Kapoor and Parineeti Chopra but nothing actually came out in the Yash raj film Ishaqzaade which released in theaters today.

The best part about a film is the story. It is in department that the film loses its sheen. The film appears to be quite a frustration to watch. The trailers of the film...

Director: Vikram Bhatt;

Karisma Kapoor is back with a bang in this Vikram Bhatt mix of modern and medieval story of mystery and deceit.

"Dangerous Ishq" proves that there is life after 30 for Bollywood divas. You just need to get a life.

Film: Safe;
Cast: Jason Statham, Catherine Chan, Chris Sarandon;
Director: Boaz Yakin;



When it comes to directors, there is something called the auteur theory with the helmsman being looked upon as the author of the film. Hollywood does not believe in this theory. And yet, if you look at "Safe", you'll realise it believes in another type where instead of the director, it is the star...

Star-cast: Emraan Hashmi, Randeep Hooda, Esha Gupta
Director: Kunal Deshmukh
Music: Pritam


The much anticipated Emraan Hashmi starrer Jannat 2 came with a lot of promise and somewhat succeeded in its efforts. But it was not the story of the film that took the sheen. It was Emraan himself.

Indeed, the smooch-star's performance as Sonu Dilli only enhances his reputation as an actor. The...

Director: Joss Whedon;
Actors: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Fuffalo, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Tom Hiddleston, Samuel L. Jackson;


There could not have been a justice so perfect to separate characters, each with a unique and distinct identity, in a single film especially when each actor has saved humanity in his own style playing a superhero.

Thus...

Cast: Anil Kapoor, Ajay Devgn, Zayed Khan, Sameera Reddy, Kangna Ranaut, Boman Irani
Director: Priyadarshan

What do you do when a country, a culture and their purveyors wrong you irreparably? You plant a bomb in a speeding train and hold the establishment to ransom.

Taking a cue from Hollywood's most watched bomb-maro-bomb rush-hour excursions into plunder-land "Tezz" springs forward a...

It surely must have been long since you saw a Bollywood comedy that made you chuckle and smile for two hours. Vicky Donor is a movie that you wish wouldn't end. Every character in the film simply sparkled on the screen. The movie is original and thoroughly engaging. It makes you feel blessed and blissed.

How good it feels to watch a director pick up a pertinent issue and convert it into a...

Film: Hate Story;
Cast: Paoli Dam, Gulshan Devaiah, Nikhil Dwivedi;
Director: Vivek Agnihotri;


The motivations for revenge in Hate Story are not quite the ones that impelled the woman protagonist to rise up in arms in Mother India or for that matter in Bhavna, a film directed by Hate Story producer Vikram Bhatt's father Pravin Bhatt, where Shabana Azmi killed her own husband.

The film...
