(3/5)In a land where bhai-bhai bonding is epitomised with virtuous broad-strokes, clearly the complexity and toxicity of this ‘Karan Arjun’ is a refreshing departure. It might be too much to handle for those who swear by familial ties

(2.5/5)The original ‘Karate Kid’ remains unmatched. This one mines nostalgia
Cast: Sargun Mehta, Ammy Virk, Nimrat Khaira, Nirmal Rishi and Karamjit Anmol
(2.5/5)Even though funny, ‘Saunkan Saunkanay 2’ lacks the emotional heft of its wildly entertaining predecessor
Cast: Rajkummar Rao, Wamiqa Gabbi, Raghubir Yadav, Sanjay Mishra, Seema Pahwa, Zakir Hussain, Anubha Fatehpuria and Ishtiyak Khan

(2.5/5)The family values on display are heartfelt, and the narrative delivers some laughs but the whole is not as appealing as the 2002 original

Cast: Tom Cruise, Hayley Atwell, Ving Rhames, Simon Pegg, Henry Czerny, Angela Bassett, Esai Morales and Pom Klementieff
(3.5/5)Tom Cruise returns with a film built on high-octane action, stunning visuals and borderline absurd twists, and yet manages to strike a chord

Cast: Vince Vaughn, Susan Sarandon, Lorraine Bracco, Talia Shire, Brenda Vaccaro, Linda Cardellini, Drea de Matteo, Joe Manganiello and Michael Rispoli
(2.5/5)hat makes ‘Nonnas’ even more endearing is that this is a story based out of true life!
Cast: Tina Fey, Steve Carell, Will Forte, Kerri Kenney-Silver, Marco Calvani, Erika Henningsen and Colman Domingo
(4/5)Created by comedy stars Tina Fey, Lang Fisher and Tracey Wigfield, this eight-episode series is a fresh take on Alan Alda’s 1981 movie of the same name.

(3/5)‘Thunderbolts’, the latest in Marvel’s second generation comic book hero movie adaptations, is a refreshingly fun engagement. It doesn’t have the power and dynamics of ‘The Avengers’, but it sits pretty well in the MCU. This new chapter, a sort...
