Review: I am Number Four is disappointing numbers game

A fresh good looking cast, flashy special effects and a clear-cut high-school mindset makes this an average thriller without the blood and gore to pitchfork it into the major league of money spinners.

Review: The Nutcracker is under-realised fantasy

The music though borrowed, appears crudely put-together, the performances (save for Elle Fanning’s Mary) look deadened and the narrative appears completely overwhelmed by it’s own savaging interpretation.

Review: How Do You Know? stretches it thin

James L Brooks hopes his film’s A-list star cast will fill-up the damning holes in his latest movie's myopic screenplay.

Review: Gnomeo and Juliet is boring garden lore

Gnomes finding love and rising above their differences might not be half as interesting for an Indian audience that has precious little experience of manicured lawns and their ornaments.

Review: Rabbit Hole is understated emotional drama

Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart frame understated study�s of their respective characters and that particularly adds to the unforgettable nature of this whole experience.

Review: No Strings attached is a treat for Valentine’s Day

The premise may also appear as silly as they come but Reitman’s light-handed treatment and Meriwether’s frothy writing combine well to keep us pleasantly surprised.

Review: The Mechanic, not quite mechanically executed

The writers seem to have come up with ideal material for a Jason Statham showpiece — an adaptation of the 1972 Charles Bronson flick, refitted to suit Statham’s unique capabilities.

Review: The Rite is tiresome mumbo-jumbo

Here’s yet another film on exorcism trying valiantly to fit into the horror-thriller genre and failing quite miserably to generate either thrills or scares.

Review: Biutiful is troubling, yet hopeful and uplifting

The tension is not brought forward by mystery but by the super-human struggle exhibited by the lead character.

Review: Inside Job reveals the truth

Banking experts, investment advisors, lobbyists, academicians make their voices(negative and positive) heard and it’s truly illuminating.
