Director: George Miller
Producer: Dough Mitchell, George Miller & P.J.Voeton
Cast: Charlize Theron & Tom Hardy
Duration: 120 Minutes

The story of Mad Max: Fury Road is set in future where in the civilization has collapsed and whatever is remaining is plunged into anarchy, controlled by  King Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) with his mad army.

Story begins with Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron) double crossing king Joe, escapes with his Oil Rig & his 5 wife’s, whom he uses for his immortality.  Kings sends in his army, lead by his son who suffers with a peculiar disease for which a constant blood transfusion is a must from a universal donor played by Max (Tom Hardy).

This tussle results in the convergence of two leads Tom & Furiosa and their journey towards finding Greenland. What is Greenland? How will they find? Is worth seeing.

Coming to the movie as such, Mad Max is truly mad especially in terms of its fast paced action. The fight scenes just go crazy as the movie progress. But, the sad part is, that is where it ends aswell nothing much to offer except this adrenaline rush mayhem.

The cinematography has been exceptional covering the deserted canyons and fight sequences in them. Coming to performances its Charlize Theron who steals the thunder compared to her male counterpart who appears just ok.

I couldn’t resist mentioning this, watch out for this crazy guitarist, no matter what the situation is he just rocks it.

To sum up take this Mad Road unless you are a complete action junky or else you will end in fury.


My Rating: 2/5

Jigra - Review

Image
Movie follows Satyabhama Anand (Alia Bhatt), who is fiercely protective of her younger brother, Ankur Anand (Vedang Raina). Ankur, along with his cousin, travels to Hansi Dao, Malaysia, for studies but is wrongfully sentenced to death for drug possession. Determined to save him, Satyabhama arrives in Malaysia and teams up with Bhatia (Manoj Pahwa), a retired gangster, and Muthu (Rahul Ravindran), an ex-cop, to plan a jailbreak while Ankur and his fellow inmates plot their escape. What works - Alia Bhatt gives a strong performance as the determined sister, especially in the film’s climactic action scenes. Vedang Raina holds his own, while Manoj Pahwa and Rahul Ravindran enhance the story. Let downs - However, those looking for an engaging narrative may find Jigra lacking. The plot is predictable, and viewers familiar with the trailer may not find any surprises. The pacing is uneven, and the emotional connection between the siblings feels underdeveloped, leaving audiences wan...

Coolie - Its Rajnis show all the way !

Image
Rating : 3/5 Cast : Rajinikanth, Nagarjuna, Upendra, Soubin Shahir, Shruti Haasan, Rachita Ram, Sathyaraj, Aamir Khan Director : Lokesh Kanagaraj The union of superstar  Rajinikanth  and hitmaker  Lokesh Kanagaraj  raised massive expectations. Coolie  sadly doesn't live up to the hype. The film feels muddled and inconsistent, occasionally lifted by Rajinikanth's towering presence,  Anirudh Ravichander's  pulsating score, and slick action choreography. The plot strongly resembles Lokesh’s earlier film  Vikram . An older protagonist with a hidden past, a crime syndicate, a mysterious villain — it’s all been done before. The problem is, unlike Vikram,  Coolie  lacks tight execution. The film drifts aimlessly at times, missing the coherence and focus. Still,  Rajinikanth  is magnetic. At 74, his charisma remains unmatched, commanding attention with minimal effort. Whether it’s his iconic cigarette flick or a knowing smi...

War 2 - Sleek, Stylish & Entertaining

Image
Rating : 3/5 Cast:  Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, Kiara Advani, Ashutosh Rana, Anil Kapoor, Varun Badola, Dishita Sehgal, K.C. Shankar D irector:  Ayan Mukerji Writers:  Sridhar Raghavan, Abbas Tyrewala, Aditya Chopra Duration:  2 hours 50 minutes On the surface (and backed by a massive budget),  War 2  proudly carries forward the hallmarks of the YRF Spy Universe—flashy, globe-spanning locations from Japan to Spain, Italy to Abu Dhabi, and even icy caves in Switzerland. Narratively, it's a familiar spy thriller loop: Kabir (Hrithik Roshan) reemerges as a rogue agent, only to be revealed as working undercover. A revamped R&AW unleashes their best operative, Vikram (Jr NTR), to bring him down, sparking a classic enemies-turned-allies bromance. Cue betrayals, dramatic flashbacks, and themes of patriotism versus modern-day nationalism.  Despite the franchise’s commercial motivations, the casting feels somewhat logical. The movie reflects a real-...
