Anupama Chopra Reviews

#JabariyaJodi (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23JabariyaJodi) is over-plotted – characters keep getting married, kidnapped, nearly married and separated. #Sidharth (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23Sidharth) and #Parineeti (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23Parineeti) ’s bogus accents, body language and demeanor don’t allow them to blend into this small-...

Ash Is Purest White is the first Jia Zhangke film to release theatrically in India. First, let’s just take a moment to celebrate that. The Chinese director is one of the world’s most acclaimed storytellers. #MartinScorsese (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23MartinScorsese) described his cinema as ‘the finest, toughest, most vitally alive work in modern moviemaking.’ Jia Zhangke’s fil...

Jaw-dropping action, cool one-liners and the industrial-strength charisma of #DwayneJohnson (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23DwayneJohnson) and #JasonStatham (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23JasonStatham) . Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw proves that these ingredients are enough to make a reasonably entertaining movie. Watch the movie review by #AnupamaChopra...

#KhandaaniShafakhana wants to deliver a serious message about the importance of being open about sex – so entire scenes play out like public service announcements, in which characters espouse the cause. The film puts too much pressure on #SonakshiSinha. She is in almost every frame of the film. We see her in close-up – literally and figuratively. Here's Anupama Chopra's review.

#ArjunPatiala is designed as a spoof. #DiljitDosanjh has a simplicity and sweetness that connects whether he is playing a superhero or a cop. His comic timing is impeccable but even Diljit can’t salvage the train-wreck that is Arjun Patiala. Here's Anupama Chopra's review.

#KanganaRanaut (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23KanganaRanaut) and #RajkummarRao (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23RajkummarRao) unite yet again with #JudgementallHaiKya (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23JudgementallHaiKya) . Like the film's protagonist Bobby, the film can be exhausting. But like her, it’s also a true blue original. Here's Anupama Chop...

#TheLionKing is visually stunning. Director Jon Favreau said that the attempt was to make an animated film feel like a live-action film. #ShahRukh and #Aryan are well cast. Shah Rukh’s voice of course has a wonderful familiarity. Aryan’s voice is introduced when Simba grows up and he sounds so much like his father. Listen to the review by #AnupamaChopra to know more.

#Super30 (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23Super30) is the ultimate underdog story, starring #HrithikRoshan (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23HrithikRoshan) , #PankajTripathi (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23PankajTripathi) , Mrunal Thakur, directed by #VikasBahl (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23VikasBahl) . There is drama, emotion, tra...

Hirokazu Kore-eda’s #Shoplifters is a profound, deeply moving meditation on this question. The film won the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival in 2018 and was Japan’s official entry to the #Oscars. Listen to #AnupamaChopra's review of the film.

Spider-Man: Far From Home is a superhero film based on Marvel Comic's character #Spiderman (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23Spiderman) . It is the sequel to Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) and the twenty-third film in the #Marvel (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=%23Marvel) Cinematic Universe (MCU). The film is directed by Jon Watts, written by Chris McKenna and Erik Somm...

What did Anupama Chopra think of the second edition of the SOTY films? Listen to her review to find out!

A suicide bomber who can’t remember his mission is an inherently intriguing idea. And Hanif might have made more of an impression if the script was less sloppy. But Blank peddles in clichés – the bearded Muslim fanatic, Sunny Deol’s dhai kilo ka haath, the corrupt system.

For all those who know and relate to the MCU and for those who want to know what to look out for, here’s founder and critic Anupama Chopra’s movie review of the much-awaited 22nd film ‘Avengers: Endgame’

Kalank is a Sanjay Leela Bhansali film, not directed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Abhishek creates an operatic fantasy filled with staggering sets, swirling fabric and heartache. Let me warn you - this film is not for everyone.

One of the many movies that release this Friday is 'Albert Pinto Ko Gussa Kyun Aata Hai?' inspired by Saeed Mirza’s 1980 film 'Albert Pinto Ko Gussa Kyoon Aata Hai'. This film has been written and directed by Soumitra Ranade, and features Manav Kaul, Nandita Das and Saurabh Shukla.

RAW stands for Romeo Akbar Walter – three names of the same man, played by John Abraham. John’s most successful films put to good use his overpowering physicality – shoulders that stretch for miles and biceps that seem to burst out of sleeves. The opening sequence landed a solid punch and my hopes were raised. This material had the potential to be a suspenseful espionage drama.

The film is about a teenage boy Billy Batson who becomes a powerful superhero when he says the word 'Shazam'. So like Tom Hanks in Big, you have a young boy grappling with being in an adult body.  #shazam #billybatson #dcfilms #superhero #zacharylevi #markstrong #asherangel #comicbooks #dceu

Hair might mostly be made up of dead cells but it is such an essential part of our vanity that this is a horror we can’t imagine. Which is why hair loss is a multi-billion dollar industry around the globe. And why the story of Enakshi, a young bald girl in Siliguri, instantly grabs you.  #gonekesh #shwetatripathi #qasimkhallow

Junglee is an eco-message film that begins with the famous quote by Thomas Schmidt – No one in the world needs an elephant tusk but an elephant. The intentions and sentiments are admirable. The narrative is mostly designed to serve Vidyut. The actor has an impressive physique and Chuck creates ample scenes to showcase it. Undoubtedly, Vidyut carries off the action sequences, which he also helped c...

Kesari is a story so astounding that if it wasn’t true, you would never believe it. In September 1897, 21 soldiers of the 36th Sikh regiment of the British army fought valiantly against more than 10,000 Afghans. Using single-loading rifles, they kept the enemy at bay for hours ensuring that they didn’t succeed in their plan to take over two key British forts in the North West Frontier Province. Th...
