#EkPaheliLeela(Hindi) Rating: * * Sunny side up! The songs and #SunnyLeone are it’s USP. But the confused and misdirected narrative make it a pain to watch even for that! #UniversalCommunications #ParagDesai #TSeries #PaperdollEntertainment #BhushanKumar #BobbyKhan #JayBhanushali #RajneeshDuggal #JasArora #MohitAhlawat

#BarefootToGoa(Hindi) Rating: * * A well intentioned expose on abandonment of the ageing.. but based on poor reasoning and constricted convictions. It’s a bud that doesn’t achieve full-bloom for it’s faulty characters and unclear motivations. #ParullGossain #PraveenMorchhale

#DharamSankatMein( Hindi) Rating: * * OMG not another one! There have been much better and more accomplished films on the hypocrisy that causes conflicts between religions. This one is too low brow, extremely contrived ,briefly humorous and has little to offer in terms of intelligent entertainment. #CrissCrossCommunications #RaindropMedia #FuwadKhan #PareshRawal #AnnuKapoor #NaseeruddinShah #Viacom18 #TrignomediaPvtLtd
#BrokenHorses(English) Rating: * * Too Indian in treatment to be true-blue Hollywood. Has all the obvious trappings of a westernised reconstruction of #VidhuVinodChopra’s cult hit ‘Parinda’ but minus the western sensibility. What it amounts to is overwrought, teary eyed men behaving like deranged misfits. Even the scale and scope of the production appears measly! Give me ‘Parinda’ any day. #VidhuVinodChopra #FoxStarFilms #HemanshuMestry #AbhijatJoshi #JasonRichman #VincentDOnofrio #AntonYelchin #ChrisMarquette #MariaVelverde #SeanPatrickFlanery #ThomasJane
#ItFollows( English) Rating: * * * ½ This most recent cult-horror hit is by Far the most stylish, atmospheric, creative and highly effective scare fest- the creepiest we have seen in a long time. Go for it! #MaikaMonroe #KeirGilchrist #OliviaLuccardi #JakeWeary

#Home(English/Animation) Rating: * * *At its heart, “Home” is really just a kids movie, and for that purpose it works well. Colorful imagery, cute aliens that look like marshmallows, modern pop soundtrack and potty humor, make it a family entertainer of sorts. Adults won’t feel at ‘Home’ here though! #FoxStarFilms #HemanshuMestry #ShrutiSundaram #JenniferLopez #JimParsons #MattJones #Rihanna #SteveMartin #TimJohnson #DreamWorks
Hindi Film Review

Sunny Side Up!
Film: Ek Paheli Leela
Cast: Sunny Leone , Jay Bhanushali, Rajneish Duggal, Mohit Ahlawat, Jas Arora
Director: Bobby Khan
Rating: * *
Sunny Leone is the star attraction here and the film rides on her risqué persona. As expected this film with a reincarnation theme has Sunny donning multiple get-ups in order to portray characters from different time-lapses. From traditional to modern, Sunny plays a village girl, a model and also a princess in this reincarnation drama directed by Bobby Khan. A sexy British Indian model, Mira(Sunny Leone) finds herself transported to the past where she was a Rajasthani woman, Leela, lusted after by a local sculptor. It’s basically a revenge story where Mira goes back into the past to ferret out the villains in the present.
The story appears inspired by Shakti Samanta’s ‘Mehbooba’ with some of the songs also pictured in similar fashion. There’s ample skin show by Leone and keeping with Bollywood tradition there's ample scope for bizarre costume changes too- so her fans won’t be disappointed by the hyperventilating storyline and mediocre acting talents on display. The reincarnation part resembles the recent flop ‘Dangerous Ishq’ to a certain extent also.
Director Bobby Khan appears to be paying homage to Sanjay Leela Bhansali with his riotous use of colors and over-the-top frames. He also incorporates the ‘Dholi taro..’ number from Bhansali’s ‘Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam’ to underscore his obsession with that flamboyant style. Khan also takes full advantage of Leone’s lack of inhibitions by showcasing her monumental charms with a reverence befitting a pulp goddess. Multiple music directors, a variety of song styles and eye-grabbing visuals give the proceedings the much needed pep and energy. The film is lavishly mounted and Basha Lal’s camerawork captures the sensuality of the earthy Rajasthan canvas just as well as he does Sunny’s curvaceous body. And Leone does the rest. This is not much of a movie but an experience ..of the Sunny Leone kind!
