THE MODERN DAY MYSTERY SPIN-OFF, REMINDER OF THE ‘CHRISTIE DAYS’ – KNIVES OUT REVIEW

After reading an extensive number of ways to get murdered from Agatha Christie’s bestsellers, did we ever think we could get surprised by a murder-mystery movie? Enter – Rian Johnson’s adulation to Christie – Knives Out . After Brick (2005), a dark, 1940s noir narrative and Looper (2012), a unique time-travel story, Johnson shook the fan-base of the Star Wars franchise with his bold piece of Star Wars: The Last Jedi (2017). And now it seems Johnson is unstoppable; such is the reaction of one after watching his latest entrée, which hit the theatres a couple of days back. Showing his unusually attractive attitude towards genre cinema with Knives Out , he coerces his audience to keep chewing their nails with his smartly arranged suspense scenes and enough flaws so that the audience keeps on guessing. And as the topping for the cake, he not only has one but many cherries in the form of the stellar cast of the movie. The movie opens with Harlan Thrombey, portrayed by Christopher Plumme

Pagalpanti will make you laugh like crazy: Movie Review

If you are a fan of Anees Bazmee’s direction in comedy flicks like the  Welcome  series,  No Problem  and  No Entry,  then you must be eagerly waiting for his latest venture  Pagalpanti .  The movie is an action-comedy attempt by Bazmee in his signature style of comic storytelling. The ensemble star cast includes John Abraham, Anil Kapoor, Ileana D’Cruz, Arshad Warsi, Urvashi Rautela, Saurabh Shukla, Pulkit Samrat and many more such actors who have already made audiences laugh with their comic timing. Even with such a fantastic cast and an experienced director, the movie is not at all up to the mark. The story follows three men and two ladies who make a plan to steal money from two gangsters who are deeply connected to the underworld. Although the plots seem similar to other movies by the director, still the movie lacks the punch and funny one-liners, which were the highlights of Anees’s earlier films. The screenplay is not as fast-paced as it should have been and after a few scenes

The Invisible Man Trailer is Out!

The much-awaited trailer for The Invisible Man is out now and to describe in one word; it is “Spooky”. The storyline is pretty much similar to the earlier adaptations to the H.G. Wells novel of the same name. The trailer shows a more dark and broody version of the story and seems like a significant improvement on the 2000’s horror movie “Hollow Man” which was also based on the same novel. By the looks of it, the story shows a woman who is being haunted by her ex-husband as she moves into a new house and finds out that her ex is not just dead yet and he has found a way to make him invisible and is back to take revenge on her. The rest of the story revolves around how he proves that she is insane and how he tortures her. Elizabeth Moss impresses with her scared and sometimes even insane faces, and it leads us to believe that she will be the highlight of the movie. Aldis Hodge, Storm Reid and Harriet Dyer also seem to complement their roles. The movie was supposed to be an addition

The star-studded cast of Knives Out includes Daniel Craig, Chris Evans,  Toni Collette, Michael Shannon, Katherine Langford, Don Johnson, Toni Collette, Ana de Armas, Jamie Lee Curtis, Lakeith Stanfield, Jaeden Martell and Christopher Plummer.

The movie is an ode to the 70’s thrillers, and it makes use of the modern direction techniques just perfectly. The director is smart enough to give ample screen time to all the stars to keep the audiences guessing who can be the killer. The run time is justified, and the twist
