#ManjiTheMountainMan(Hindi) Rating: * * * ½ A noteworthy marriage of commerce and art in terms of technique, content and style, this Ketan Mehta helmed bio-pic takes the quasi fantasy-reality route to the telling of a poignant and deeply affecting tale of a devoted  man’s singular unparalleled  endeavor to tame a massive mountain that has wreaked havoc in his life.  Dashrath Manji’s epoch making and ‘Path-breaking’effort has become part of folklore and the oral history of his painstaking effort bears well in the cinematic retelling, gaining immense power and significant heft from a craftily fleshed out script , a wonderfully orchestrated, elevating background score from #SandeshShandilya, stirring dialogues by #MohinderPratapSingh & #ShahzadAhmed and some bravura performances- notably  of course from the inimical #NawazuddinSiddiqui, the riveting #RadhikaApte , the searingly intense #PrashantNarayanan (despite a hacked role), some wonderful sidebar performances from the rest of the ensemble cast and a distinctive note-perfect cameo by #DeepaSahi. And last but not the least- #KetanMehta has finally got back his groove. His vividly artistic, narrative flamboyance takes this story to unforgettable and immensely memorable heights!   #KetanMehta #MayaMovies #DeepaSahi #NawazuddinSiddiqui #RadhikaApte #Viacom18 #NFDC #NinaLathGupta #PankajTripathi #PrashantNarayanan #EverymediaTechnologies #TigmanshuDhulia  #RaindropMedia Runtime: 120 mins

  

#TheGift(English) Rating: * * * ½  Smart , crafty storytelling helps this mind-game thriller along. Familiar tropes unfamiliar endings makes this film surprising and interesting. It’s quite a riveting engagement #JoelEdgerton (#Warrior) excels both as director and actor. #JasonBateman &#RebeccaHall provide solid support to keep the tension and twist-at-the-end believable.  #PVRPictures #JasonBateman #RebeccaHall #JoelEdgerton   Runtime: 108 mins
