Jude Anthany Joseph's third feature, after Ohm Shanti Oshana and Oru Muthassi Gadha, released on Prime Video at midnight today. This seemingly feel-good film, also seemingly made in limited spaces and with a shoestring budget, tackles a concept and issue never tested before in Malayalam cinema circles. In Sara'S, we follow the life of Sara Vincent (Anna Ben), a young, bubbly, yet unapologetic filmmaker who struggles to make it big in the industry. She continuously assists male directors and is in the scripting works of her dream film. Sara has decided, from her school days, that she would not bear any kids. This is when she meets Jeevan (Sunny Wayne); her relationship with him subsequently brings her ideology and decision into a confrontation with the established norms of society, family and child-rearing. Anna Ben in Sara'S The best aspect in which Sara'S has excelled, without doubt, is its hard-hitting taut script. Debutant Akshay Hareesh deserves praise for managin...
For a franchise that has made jaw-dropping action sequences it's "big thing", fans expected nothing less from Ethan Hunt and Co. when producers announced the sixth installment. Reviewer-The Blog© is back with it's review on the much awaited Tom Cruise flick.
IMF super spy Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise) and his team, which comprises Benji Dunn (Simon Pegg) and Luther Stickell (Ving Rhames), are tasked with finding three highly lethal plutonium cores, in the possession of The Apostles, a covert mercenary group built on the ruins of The Syndicate, the rogue organization headed by the now captured Solomon Lane, Rogue Nation's chief antagonist. When the operation goes haywire, Hunt has to reluctantly join forces with CIA agent August Walker (Henry Cavill) to retrieve the apocalyptic cores while battling with unseen shadows.
Every industry has those faces who seem to outwit the phenomenon of time and aging, and this hell of a franchise has had no hesitation in asserting that their flagship lead, Tom Cruise, is Hollywood's face. One hears of the word, impossible, and Cruise's name inevitably pops up to the head. Such has been the impact that the different installments of the franchise, despite their drawbacks, have created on the genre of action movies in general. Mission:Impossible has evolved into such a scale that one cannot imagine how much the spy saga's next will keep us in the edge of our seats.
Undoubtedly exceptional, Tom Cruise delivers his action set pieces (performed by himself... like I have to mention that) with never-exhausting charisma, one cannot keep their eyes in their sockets. Like the old adage goes - age is just a number for this guy. Christopher McQuarrie, the director of Fallout, also a frequent collaborator of Tom Cruise, has created ample space for Cruise to display his dedication and commitment to his character. The super spy, Ethan Hunt, has evolved into a character, synonymous with the titular word impossible, thanks to this 56 year old who has made action set pieces his forte.
Reluctant to lie under Cruise's shadow, Henry Cavill makes his ordeal with the action franchise as memorable as possible. His combination scenes with Cruise are highly enjoyable and well-shot. Plus, his action sequences overwhelm those of Cruise's at crucial moments in the story.
Rebecca Ferguson, Simon Pegg, Ving Rhames, Alec Baldwin and Michelle Monaghan are part of the stellar cast in this movie, which brings in a sense of continuity that had been lacking in this franchise for a long time.
The music and cinematography departments have successfully been able to give an epic touch to this high-adrenaline-rushing flick.
Mission:Impossible- Fallout is undoubtedly the best movie to come out this summer. Balancing it's story, performances and action sequences in the most perfect way possible, Hunt's exploits as IMF super spy do not fail the hopes of the audience, despite the two-decade age of the franchise, which intends to teach a lesson to those franchises whose grace depreciates with time.
