Beauty And The Beast Film Review by Manya Malhotra

Beauty And The Beast



Romance
4
Cast:Emma Watson,Dan Stevens,Luke Evans
Director:Bill Condon
Story: An arrogant prince is transformed into a hideous Beast by an enchantress,this spell can only be broken if the Beast finds true love. The magical world of the fairy tale unfolds  when Belle comes across an  occult castle , inhabited  by the Beast and his helpers. Will she be able to free the Beast and his helpers from the curse?
Review: Beauty and the Beast has been written and rewritten,made into a film and remade quite a few times but no one is complaining! The first 30 minutes or so of the  film are a bit slow as they are laying the foundation of the film. When Belle reaches the castle ,the film instantly picks up pace . The scenes with the talking objects singing and dancing are spectacular and look grand, not to forget the costume and make up of the Beast.The whole castle seems alive and the correct word to describe the ambience of the castle is "magical". The second half of the film has some endearing moments between Belle and the Beast that bring a smile to your face. The film is very well directed and the screen play is marvellous . The actors just suddenly break into a song in the middle of the film and that can get irksome especially when you are intently waiting for the next scene. Emma Watson as Belle is  breathtaking  you see a streak of feminism in Belle which is quite similar to that of the UN  women goodwill ambassador (Emma Watson)  herself .Dan Stevens  is convincing as the horrid as well as the sensitive and ernest Beast. We don't see much of him as the prince . Luke Evans as Gaston is terrific! He was supposed to make sure that we loathe him and that's exactly what happened! 
Watch this one to relive the much loved fairy tale and be mesmerised!

Meri Pyaari Bindu Film Review By Manya Malhotra

Meri Pyaari Bindu Romance 2.5 Cast : Parineeti Chopra, Ayushmann Khurrana, Aparajita Auddy,Rajatabha Dutta  Director :   Akshay   Roy  Story : Childhood sweethearts Abhimanyu and Bindu get separated .  Destiny , however has other plans for them as they   keep meeting each other repeatedly as they experience love, desperation ,heartbreak ,success and failure together. Review : Meri pyaari Bindu takes you back to the 1990s . The basic concept of the film is not something that is very new but the writers try hard to stand out . The film starts off well ,it is cute and  has some chuckle worthy moments ,but you keep waiting for SOMETHING to happen in the film! You wait for that defining moment in the film without which the film just seems incomplete. It looks like the scenes of the film were all shot and then joined together like in a jigsaw puzzle.  The film is therefore not able to make much of a connect with the audience.Even if...

He is adamant on getting married to her , she wants to get a job and prove her worth to her family.  Full  credit to the director  (Shashank Khaitan ) for making a film which could easily have become stretched, boring and foolish into a realistic and believable film.  The film is entertaining and full of light hearted moments along with some cute ones ...

half girlfriend Film Review by Manya Malhotra

half girlfriend  Romance 3 Cast: Arjun Kapoor, Shraddha Kapoor, Vikrant Massey , Rhea Chakraborty . Director: Mohit Suri  Story: A Bihari boy , Madhav Jha (Arjun Kapoor) falls in love with a rich, sophisticated Delhi girl, Rhea Somani  (Shraddha kapoor) who is commitment phobic and only wants to be his half girlfriend. Will he manage to win over the love of his life with his rustic charm and simplicity? Review:  The film 'Half girlfriend ' only really starts after the song Baarish. It doesn't take long for the lead pair's friendship to blossom. Rhea gives out mixed signals and leaves Madhav as well as the audience confused . Why is she stringing along the poor guy if she has internal issues? This is one of the many glitches in the story of this glossy celluloid venture. Why is Madhav  so hung up on Rhea when she obviously does not want to reciprocate? Why is Rhea's mom suddenly worried about her whereabouts when she let her go in the first ...
