'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. Debutant Akshay Hareesh deserves praise for managin...

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.

'Raat Akeli Hai' review: A murder mystery powered by an almost-perfect cast and tonally perfect making, but fizzles out in parts

Honey Trehan's debut film, Raat Akeli Hai , released digitally on Netflix on the 31st of July. Starring a talented crop of fine artists such as Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Radhika Apte, Shweta Tripathi, Tigmanshu Dhulia and many others, Raat Akeli Hai was touted to be a film in the crime thriller genre, with many already labeling it as an Indian Knives Out. Here's our review on the desi crime thriller. A dead man, that too a powerful patriarch/politician, shot point blank in a sprawling mansion in the rural hinterlands of Gwalior, a posse of family members with unclear intentions who have not heard a thing or the commotion that ensued before it, and an unwanted newcomer to the family whose origins and backgrounds are shadier than those of the family members combined. Add to that a cop, like in other similar movies of the genre, hell bent on digging up the truth. What debutant Honey Trehan and writer Smita Singh orchestrates here is the perfect setting for a gripping whodunit. Whethe...
