#PicksAndPiquesSnippetFilmReview29thJuly2016 #JohnsonThomas #PicksAndPiquesSnippetFilmReview29thJuly2016 #JohnsonThomas #Dishoom(Hindi) Rating: * * ½ This Action, comedy bromance has great stunts, Jacqueline looks terrific & there’s a great buddy chemistry between John &Varun & #AbuDhabi looks swank but the story lacks bite. #JohnAbraham #VarunDhawan #AkshayeKhanna #SajidNadiadwala #ErosInternational #NadiadwalaGrandsonsEntertainmentPvtLtd #RohitDhawan #JaquelineFernandez #SaquibSaleem #TusharHiranandani #AkshayKumar #NargisFakhri #HussainDalal #SpicePR #SunilALulla #PritamChakraborty Runtime: 124 mins #LoveKeFunday(Hindi) Rating: * * Young Blood playing musical chairs ( in terms of relationship)with their partners, this one tries too hard to be uber-cool but the intent and the essay are two different things altogether. There’s promise in a few stray moments but most of it is regressive & fanciful rather than realistic. #KhazanaVision #Dwapar...

#BestFilmsReleasesThisWeek22ndJuly2016 #JohnsonThomas #BestFilmsReleasesThisWeek22ndJuly2016 #JohnsonThomas #StarTrekBeyond(English/3D) Rating: * * * As a sequel meant to keep the flagging interest in this sci-fi adventure franchise going, it does just about enough. But as a standalone unusual experience it fails. In fact there’s hardly anything new here other than the spec less production design, imaginative scaling and computer animatronix. The human element even with the sexing up of previously remote and seeming sexless beings, and the action finale barely adds-up to a little more involvement and intrigue than before. That’s as far as this one goes. So if you are looking to go where no man has gone before –maybe you should look closer to home! #EverymediaPR #Vishaka #Viacom18 #ChrisPine #ZacharyQuinto #ZoeSaldana #SimonPegg #AntonYelchin #KarlUrban #JohnCho #IdrisElba #SofiaBoutella #LydiaWilson #ShohrehAghdashloo #ParamountPictures #SkydanceMedia #BadRobotProds. #S...

#PicksAndPiquesSnippetFilmReview22ndJuly2016 #JohnsonThomas #PicksAndPiquesSnippetFilmReview22ndJuly2016 #JohnsonThomas #Madaari sshhh Desh So Raha Hai(Hindi) Rating: * * ½ Nishikant Kamat uses the ‘A Wednesday’ device ( which now appears gimmicky)to turn the kidnapping of a Home Minister’s son into a fight for justice in which the common man pits himself against the system with an aim to winning hearts and proving his point in the bargain. The narrative has it’s interesting, pungent, pinchhitting, bitter, heartfelt moments but the choppy editing and the obviously contrived plotting leaves the viewer largely unaffected. Irrfan goes a little over-the-top hogging the limelight in what could be termed as his first home production while #JimmyShergill puts out yet another impeccable performance. #SpicePR #IrrfanKhan #JimmySheirgill #TusharDalvi #NishikantKamat #SutapaSikdar #PoojaEntertainment #VashuBhagnani #MirajEntertainment #BharatShah #EaseMyTripdotcom #ShaileshRSingh #...

Three sexual predators try hard to sex up the fun but their antics are so juvenile that it seems crass. The crudeness thereof  is just untenable. There’s a ‘virgin’ ghost setting them on that course of self-degenration. The jokes fall flat, sexual innuendo is in-your-face distasteful,  performances are limp and the barbettes on show are so heavily made-up that they look like mannequins on the loose. The script & dialogue wavers between chest high and groin deep while the music, raises expectatio...
