Grrr movie review: Suraj Venjaramoodu's ability to effortlessly generate humour from thin air proves invaluable, while Kunchacko Boban, for whom comedy has never been a strong suit, shines in Grrr.

In telling simply how there are all these emotions within us, and that it is up to us to make of it what we will, Inside Out 2 is a winner.

Kudi Haryani Val Di, starring Ammy Virk and Sonam Bajwa, is a fun entertainer where love unfolds in the wrestling arena.

Dakota Fanning, whose quiet, worried face suggests questions with uneasy answers, does her best to lift the film. Olwen Fouere meanwhile channels her inner Glenn Close.

Chandu Champion movie review: Kartik Aaryan makes you root for his character even though Kabir Khan's film falls into declarative, underlined patches.

Maharaja movie review: Vijay Sethupathi plays the role of a single father who is desperate to get back a stolen dustbin, but there is a lot more to his complaint than what meets the eye.

Hit Man movie review: Richard Linklater brings an otherworldly slickness to the new Netflix romantic thriller, featuring Glen Powell and Adria Arjona in proper movie star form.

Am I OK? movie review: Dakota Johnson washes away the stench of her recent superhero misfire Madame Web by returning to her roots with a charming Sundance dramedy, available in India on JioCinema.

Little Hearts movie review: Right from the beginning, the Shane Nigam-Mahima Nambiar starrer attempts to present itself as a simple and rooted film, but these efforts fall flat soon due to the overuse of clichés.

Satyabhama movie review: Satyabhama is a film that has predictable twists and turns and has incorporated some aspects we have seen in earlier cop films. However, having Kajal Aggarwal at its centre makes it a tad more interesting.

Weapon movie review: Watching Weapon was like reading Wikipedia pages of Marvel superheroes and going on a rabbit hole clicking the hyperlinks.

Blackout, starring Vikrant Massey, Anant Vijay Joshi, Sunil Grover, Mouni Roy, Chhaya Kadam, Jisshu Sengupta and Ruhani Singh, makes you wonder if anyone involved in this enterprise knows anything from anything: a premise also needs execution.

Munjya movie review: Munjya, the latest in Dinesh Vijan's horror universe, loses an opportunity to have created a truly original bad boy whose rancid desire for an older girl keeps it alive all these decades.

Under Paris movie review: What if a monstrous shark found its way into the river Seine in Paris? That's the harebrained premise that the new Netflix action film unabashedly dives into.

Even as aging stars Will Smith and Martin Lawrence -- who team up for the fourth time as buddy cops -- infuse the narrative with their energy, the action-comedy offers few surprises.

What makes Fast Charlie better is Marcie (a very, very good Morena Baccharin), in what is essentially a tagged-on role as the ex-wife of one of the killed gangsters. In Baccharin’s hands, and her warm eyes and enigmatic smile, the film goes beyond a ’90s mob flick to promise its two main leads a future.

Gaurdan movie review: RS Senthikumar's film, in essence, is a reiteration of the Karnan story from Mahabharata, only here the underdog friend is not blinded by loyalty.

The Strangers Chapter 1 movie review: If the ‘how much torture will they endure’ bit you may have seen before, Strangers: Chapter 1 comes from even more familiar territory.

Mr and Mrs Mahi movie review: Janhvi Kapoor-Rajkummar Rao film gives us a rom-com nestled in India’s favourite sports, which in turn is nestled in the tropes of the family-entertainer movie.

Mandakini movie review: One positive aspect of the Althaf Salim, Anarkali Marikar-starrer is its balanced portrayal of male and female characters and their camaraderie, giving equal importance and screen time to both groups.

Thalavan movie review: Jis Joy's film suffers from poorly crafted dialogues, a weak script that fails to elevate the film and abrupt shifts in tone between a police procedural and a crime thriller that detract from the overall experience.

Bhaiyya Ji movie review: One wishes one can say Manoj Bajpayee does his role credit. Before that, he has to give himself some credit. And here, he just doesn't.

Atlas movie review: Starring Jennifer Lopez, the science-fiction action film is visually incoherent, limited in ambition, and lacking any real redeeming qualities.
