Parched (Movie Reviews)
Critic's Rating: By: Meena Iyer
Direction: Leena Yadav
Cast: Tannishtha Chatterjee, Radhika Apte, Surveen Chawla and Adil Hussain
Parched takes you into a disturbing and thought-provoking territory. Even as it cleverly intertwines the stories of the three protagonists all of who have had a raw deal in life.

The Light Between Oceans (Movie Reviews)
Critic's Rating: By: Renuka Vyavahare
Direction: Derek Cianfrance
Cast: Michael Fassbender, Alicia Vikander, Rachel Weisz
Set in the 1920s, the film is an unhurried case study of human behaviour and our perception of right and wrong.

Pink (Movie Reviews)
Critic's Rating: By: Meena Iyer
Direction: Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury
Cast: Amitabh Bachchan, Taapsee Pannu, Kirti Kulhari, Andrea Tariang, Angad Bedi
Pink is a powerful statement on the existing feudal mindset of a majority of India, where men and women are judged by a different yardstick.

Robinson Crusoe (Movie Reviews)
Critic's Rating: By: Reagan Gavin Rasquinha
Direction: Vincent Kesteloot, Ben Stassen
Cast: Yuri Lowenthal, David Howard, Laila Berzins, Sandy Fox, Marieve Herington, Colin Metzger
Robinson Crusoe has its share of action and the brisk pace does help. The animal and bird characters are no doubt lovely to watch. The sight gags and snappy one-liners will also elicit a few laughs from children.

Thodari (Tamil)
Critic's Rating: By: M Suganth
Direction: Prabu Solomon
Cast: Dhanush, Keerthy Suresh, Radha Ravi, Thambi Ramaiah, Karunakaran, Harish Uthaman, Darbuka Siva, Ganesh Venkatram
There’s isn’t a properly focused plot as such (at least until the interval) and the film chugs along like a series of incidents that happen inside a train

Pagiri (Tamil)
Critic's Rating: By:
Direction: Esakki Karvannan
Cast: Prabhu Ranaveeran, Shravya, Marimuthu, Ravi Maria, A Venkatesh, K Rajan, Aadhira, TP Gajendran, Saravana Subbaiah
The film feels like a missed opportunity, especially at a time when farmers are fighting for water

Uchathula Shiva (Tamil)
Critic's Rating: By: Thinkal Menon
Direction:
Cast: Karan, Neha, Aadukalam Naren, Ramesh Khanna, Ilavarasu, Sangili Murugan, Kanal Kannan, Gnanasambandam, Asvin Raja
Karan proves his flexibility in a few over-the-top action sequences and seems at ease in comic scenes, too, while the rest of the cast come up with acts which we have seen enough from of them

Nayaki (Tamil)
Critic's Rating: By: M Suganth
Direction: Govi
Cast: Trisha, Sushma Raj, Satyam Rajesh, Jayaprakash, Ganesh Venkatraman, Brahmanandam, Poonam Kaur
Even for a horror comedy, the premise of Naayagi feels flimsy

Sadhuram 2 (Tamil)
Critic's Rating: By: M Suganth
Direction: Sumanth Radhakrishnan
Cast: Rohiet Nair, Yog Japee, Riaz, Brihadish, Sujaa Varunee, Sanam Shetty
The director keeps cutting between these various plots, which enhances the disorienting feeling that we have.

Nirmala Convent (Telugu)
Critic's Rating: By: Pranita Jonnalagedda
Direction: G Naga Koteswara Rao
Cast: Roshan, Shriya Sharma, Nagarjuna

Wish You Happy Breakup (Telugu)
Critic's Rating: By: Pranita Jonnalagedda
Direction: Kiran Rao
Cast: Tejaswi Madivada, Swetaa Verma, Udai Kiran, Ravi Kamath, Kirthi Kumar
Even though the film isn’t a gem, it stands out. It’s the kind of film you wouldn’t mind going with a group of friends just for evil pleasure or with a date to liven up your boring evening.

Jyo Achyuthananda (Telugu)
Critic's Rating: By: Pranita Jonnalagedda
Direction: Srinivas Avasarala
Cast: Nara Rohith, Regina Cassandra, Naga Shaurya, Pavani Gangireddy, Rajeshwari, Sita, Tanikella Bharani
While Srinivas Avasarala leaves you mesmerised with a fun-filled, breezy first half, the latter part of the film becomes slow, stretches endlessly and makes you feel like you are watching paint dry

Janatha Garage (Telugu)
Critic's Rating: By: Pranita Jonnalagedda
Direction: Koratala Siva
Cast: NTR, Mohanlal, Samantha, Nithya Menen, Unni Mukundan, Sachin Khedekar, Ajay, Rehman, Devyani and Sai Kumar
This Janatha Garage might give everyone a hand in repairs but they need a wee bit of repair themselves for sure. But that’s no reason to miss the film.

100 Days of Love (Telugu)
Critic's Rating: By: Deepa Soman
Direction: Jenuse Mohammad
