Wogma rating: Add to “To Watch” list, watch some day
Quick review: A story that shook your insides when you read about it, is told so clinically that you aren’t stirred a bit. Despite an earnest performance by Rani Mukerji. (Streaming Partner: Netflix)
Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: Do we fume at the regressive take? Or do we appreciate the effort at a progressive makeover? Try as I might to appreciate, I lean towards the former.
Wogma rating: Add to 'must watch' list
Quick review: A different story, reasonably engaging too. Fleshed-out characters performed well. If only they had mellowed down the melodrama, it’d have been crisp and absorbing. Enjoyable if you can ignore the drama.
Wogma rating: Watch if you have nothing better to do
Quick review: A step up for a Rohit Dhawan film. Doesn’t mean much, does it? Let’s just say we have an attempt at a story, even if outdated, which is refreshing given the brand.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: How the 80s-90s kids think the new batch of young adults lives, loves and obsesses. 😊 Men—milder, meeker; women—cheekier, outspoken: alas, more in a Pyar-ka-Punchama-meets-Kabir way.
Wogma rating: Catch on TV/online for sure
Quick review: What is it about action films that feels funny when SRK does it, but we lap it up when it’s Tom Cruise? Once you shake that off, Pathaan is entertaining and good, silly fun. At times it’s so cheesy that you can’t help laughing. The stakes are high throughout the film, so you’re with it even if you know how it’s going to end.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: When Shakespeare meets Rohit Shetty. Obviously, Rohit Shetty’s movie gets a much-needed story. Also, it’s cute that he tries to add logic. But also, Shakespeare’s story gets an unnecessary visual and aural facelift; and the comedy gets mind-numbing slapstick.
