'Sara'S' review: Anchored by a powerful script, this simple film breaks the conventions of the feel-good template

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.

James Gunn returns to direct Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.3

It's a happy news for fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. After suffering severe backlash from fans and critics for it's decision to fire James Gunn from the director's chair of Guardians Of The Galaxy 3, the studio finally conceded and reinstated the popular director to helm the third entry in the space opera-cum-superhero franchise.

James Gunn
Having directed the first two GoTG installments with overwhelming critical and popular response, James Gunn was the favored candidate to wear the director's hat for Vol.3. However, Gunn's statements in the micro-blogging platform Twitter, which had been posted almost a decade ago and subsequently deleted, served as antagonist, which led to Marvel Studios firing him from the job. The crude tweets were made about topics like the Holocaust, AIDS, and Mexican people.



Despite the studio's attempts to justify it's action, public favor was found to be in support to James Gunn, as fans appealed in masses to reinstate Gunn as the director. Even Dave Bautista, who plays, Drax the Destroyer, threatened to step off from portraying the role. Warner Bros. were found to have taken advantage of this as it hired James Gunn to script and direct the second installment of Suicide Squad. 


In what will be joyful news for MCU addicts, the studio confirmed the rumor that James Gunn will return to direct GoTG 3

In response James Gunn tweeted-



While the producers did not reveal the release date of the film, it has been confirmed that Vol.3 will go on floors as soon as shooting for Suicide Squad 2 is wrapped up.

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri- when a mother embarks on a mission...

Reviewer-The Blog © is back after a very long hiatus with the review of the most acclaimed movie of 2017.  Mildred Hayes (Frances McDormand), a middle-aged mother, frustrated by the Ebbing Police Department's indifference towards the investigation on her daughter's rape and subsequent murder, sets out on a mission to vent her anger by renting three unnoticed billboards, which consequently rattles up a few cages and raises a lot of eyebrows. The billboards question the inefficiency of the Ebbing Police Department, singling out a workaholic William Willoughby (Woody Harrelson), the Chief of the Department, on whom the "buck stops", and irritates Willoughby's good-hearted yet racist confidante, Officer Jason Dixon (Sam Rockwell). How the eponymous billboards change the life of these central characters and the townspeople of Ebbing, Missouri form the crux of the story. Woody Harrelson and Frances McDormand   Martin McDonagh, undoubtedly a maestro in c...
