Baby Driver Review (2017) | Another Ingenious Project of Edgar Wright

By scottshak on Thursday, July 6, 2017

Baby Driver is an explosive eccentric ride into the head of a guy suffering from tinnitus. Even though it doesn’t bank on an eye-popping plot, Edgar Wright’s genius makes it all the very more exciting. The screenplay is great and subtly written. There is ample humour to keep the story going. And the work done with the …

Cars 3 Movie Review (2017) | A Story of Selflessness and Sacrifice

By scottshak on Tuesday, June 27, 2017

Cars 3 movie is a serious improvement over the prequel we saw six years ago. It has a better story to tell. There are even selfless life lessons to learn from here and even though Cars 3 movie is a tad slow for some people’s taste, it races past all the waving flags to count …

A Death in the Gunj Review (2017) | Diary of the Neglected

By scottshak on Tuesday, June 20, 2017

Konkana Sen Sharma’s debut A Death in the Gunj is a beautiful take of the neglected. It is so realistic and uncontrived that it makes you wonder why Konkana didn’t pick up direction in the first place. There was a director in her all this time, and it is so darn good that it instantly …

The Mummy Movie Review (2017) | Dark Universe’s First is a Misfire

By scottshak on Saturday, June 17, 2017

Dark Universe’s The Mummy movie is Universal’s epic fail. For most parts, it is scrounging for a plot, galloping forward with an out of focus story, at the same time trying to delve into an impending universe. It doesn’t retain the magic the original Mummy had. Neither does it have the power to sustain on …

Hindi Medium Review (2017) | A Satire on India’s Education System

By scottshak on Wednesday, June 14, 2017

Hindi Medium is a satire on India’s current education system. While there are people who are against reservation system and wish to eradicate it completely, there are some who clearly think otherwise. Even though it’s a topic debatable, that’s not supposed to be the actual theme of the movie. It is how the rich have …

Baywatch Movie Review (2017) | No One Could Save it from Drowning

By scottshak on Saturday, June 10, 2017

I wasn’t expecting much when I went to watch the Baywatch movie. In my defense, all I needed was a good laugh. Somehow I was convinced even though the movie wasn’t going to be that great, it would be funny at least. But boy was I disappointed. It is just downright cheesy, daft and so …

The Lost City of Z Movie Review (2016) | The Pursuit of a Dream

By scottshak on Wednesday, June 7, 2017

The Lost City of Z movie is a beautiful dramatic biopic of an explorer churned between his family, war and his dream to find an ancient lost city in the Amazon. It might have been a failed expedition in actuality but it never was any less than an intense elusive dream of Col. Percival Fawcett …

Wonder Woman Movie Review (2017) | DC’s Curse Has Been Broken

By scottshak on Saturday, June 3, 2017

It is done! Patty Jenkins manages to do what Zack Snyder and David Ayer failed to conquer with DCEU. Wonder Woman Movie finally breaks DC’s relentless curse and establishes a proper stronghold in its very own universe. Wonder Woman is everything we expected our superhero to be like, and Gal Gadot does her a resounding justice …
