Film Review: The Grudge

Entertainment, Reviews January 4, 2020January 3, 2020 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

The fourth in the series, and based on ‘Ju-On: The Grudge’ by Takashi Shimuzu, this one travels from Tokyo to Pennsylvania – a family experiencing something sinister in their lives when in Japan has no respite even when relocating to the US. Detective Muldoon (Andrea Riseborough) is deputed to solve a case. She realises that […]

Film Review – Hotel Mumbai

Entertainment, Reviews November 30, 2019November 29, 2019 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

India’s 26/11 has been invariably, and universally, compared to 9/11 of the US – the moral bankruptcy of the perpetrators and their handlers, the meticulous planning, targeting of the commercial capital cities, the suddenness and viciousness of the attacks, and above all – the resilience of the peoples of the affected countries. ‘Hotel Mumbai’, inspired […]

Film Review – 21 BRIDGES

Entertainment, Reviews November 23, 2019November 22, 2019 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

Two particular scenes at the beginning of the film prepare the viewer for 32-year-old NYPD Detective, Andre Davis’s (Chadwick Boseman) tough, no-nonsense character – as a 13-year-old, he silently weeps at his father’s funeral – a sincere policeman slain in the line of duty; and later, as a detective specialising in killing cop-killers, standing up […]

Film Review: Joker

Entertainment, Reviews October 5, 2019October 4, 2019 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

“For my whole life, I didn’t know if I even really existed,” – the reader would be forgiven if even a glimmer of likeness was to be found with similarly titled films! Arthur Fleck (Joaquin Phoenix) is a part-time clown, part-time stand-up comedian, with minimal success in the latter vocation, but who’s grown up idolising […]

Film Review: Rambo: Last Blood

Reviews September 21, 2019September 20, 2019 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

It took the intervening three films for First Blood to transform into Last Blood. And the generation gap is as much pronounced when Gabrielle (Yvette Monreal) tells her foster-father, John Rambo (Sylvester Stallone, of course), “Nobody writes letters any more.” Gabrielle drives from their ranch in Arizona to Mexico, when she receives a tip-off that […]

READY OR NOT

Entertainment, Reviews September 14, 2019September 13, 2019 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

“It’s true – the rich are different,” these words are uttered at one point in the film. Little would Grace (Samara Weaving), brought up as a foster child, have imagined that her wedding night excitement could extend to desperately attempting to save her life from her in-laws, with her husband Alex (Mark O’Brien) being a […]

47 Meters Down: Uncaged

Entertainment, Reviews August 31, 2019August 30, 2019 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

It’s the sequel to the 2017 sleeper hit ’47 Meters Down’, where a couple of girls in a cage crash down into the ocean, with oxygen depleting. This one, for obvious reasons has a suffix: Uncaged. It involves four girls – twice the number, but with half the thrills and excitement. Mia (Sophie Nelisse) and […]

Film Review – SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK

Reviews August 10, 2019August 9, 2019 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

“Stories have the power to hurt or heal,” says a child’s voice at the beginning of the film. In this film, adapted from the series of stories by Alvin Schwartz, one wonder what power this film could have – to hurt, heal.. or horrify! Set in 1968 during Halloween (that’s a given), in the small […]

Film Review: Viraam

Reviews December 2, 2017December 1, 2017 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

In one of the scenes in the film, Maatun (Urmila Mahanta), promoted from a lowly housemaid position to a responsible post in the office, is the only one who doesn’t arise from her chair to greet her boss, Abhiraj Malhotra (Narendra Jha). That eloquence just about sums up the genre of the film, besides the […]

Review: Lucknow Central

Entertainment, Reviews September 16, 2017September 15, 2017 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

To an extent, Farhan Akhtar’s tryst with musicals continues in his latest ‘Lucknow Central’. It’s a wonder that, having sung in six of his previous films, he doesn’t croon a single song in LC despite being the lead musician in his group! But moving ahead… Kishen Girhotra (Farhan Akhtar), an aspiring singer from Moradabad, is […]

Review: BAADSHAHO

Reviews September 2, 2017September 1, 2017 Hoshang K. Katrak 0 Comments

It seems the action directors  (too many to enumerate) and John Stewart  Eduri, who conducted the background music score, had a deal in place : whenever one of them was off duty, the other would take his place. So we have fistcuffs by the dozen and/or a ear-splitting background score, lest you fall asleep. And […]
