Pirates of the Caribbean : Dead men tell no tales film review by Manya Malhotra

Pirates of the Caribbean : Dead men tell no tales   

Action
3
Cast:Johnny Depp, Kaya Scodelario  , Brenton Thwaites
Director:Joachim Ronning and Espen Sandberg
Story:Carina Smyth , Henry Turner and Jack Sparrow are all searching for the trident of Poseidon for different reasons . During their quest ,they encounter the wrath of a half - dead man and an old nemesis .Will they succeed ?
Review : Pirates of the Caribbean : Dead men tell  no tales is like being on a ship where you experience sea sickness at times but then when a thrill wave comes your way you are soaked in  exuberance. Some scenes in the film are quite amusing (we have Johnny Depp to thank for that ),and they bring in laughs .(watch out for Jack Sparrow 's entry scene ) . But in the attempt to be funny,  the makers overdo it and  some supposedly funny scenes miss the mark. Once the crew finds the ship ,they seem to reach their destination(which  I won't reveal ,  to avoid plot spoilers) pretty easily . The electrifying music helps in lifting the spirit of the film. The fight sequences do lose your attention sometimes but the climax scene is good.  The two new actors in this film Kaya Scodelario  and Brenton Thwaites fail to make an impact . Keira knightly in her two minute cameo perhaps was more effective than Kaya was in the whole film. Johnny Depp excels and lifts the film on his two shoulders ,kudos to him.  The fans of the franchise will be ecstatic at the chance to see the film in all it's glory and magnificence . They will all get to see their very own captain Jack Sparrow back on screen! 
As for those of you who are not well acquainted with the franchise , if you are ready for a bizarre voyage at sea with a queer captain  ,uncertain waters but an overall comfortable journey , go for it !

Saiyaara: A Film Review and My Thoughts on Its Reception- By Manya Malhotra

  Saiyaara: A Film Review and My Thoughts on Its Reception   Saiyaara Reception and Backlash Saiyaara opened to an 84 crores net domestic box office figure on its opening weekend, a feat unheard of for a film with newcomers, in an industry still recognised as primarily star-led. (For context, the two major films starring newcomers in the past 13 years- Dhadak and Student of the Year, earned 33.65 and 30 crores respectively). I have been a Bollywood (or Hindi film industry) fan for as long as I can remember. Seeing one of its films get such a massive reception has been heartwarming, and I cannot remember the last time a film got so much love. It has now been two weeks since the film’s release. I have read both positive and negative reactions to the film’s unprecedented success, and after digesting it all, I thought it was finally time to revisit my blog and pen down my honest opinion on both the film and everything that has followed since its release. Skeptics will spin many t...

Darlings Film Review By Manya Malhotra

               Darlings Film Review By Manya Malhotra Cast :   Alia Bhatt, Vijay Verma, Shefali Shah, Roshan Mathew, Rajesh Sharma, Vijay Maurya Director:   Jasmeet K. Reen   Review :   Darlings is co-written by writer-director Jasmeet K Reen and Parveez Sheikh, who has films like Queen to his writing credits. It stars powerhouse performers like Alia Bhatt, Shefali Shah, and Vijay Verma — and is also Bhatt’s maiden film as a producer. Clearly, the expectations with this one are very high— and yet it still manages to make an impact.  Darling s tells the story of Badrunissa who suffers physical and psychological abuse at the hands of her husband before one day finally deciding to retaliate.  Make no mistake, Darlings is not an easy film to watch. It is infuriating but also determinedly terrifying. It lets you breathe but is also dangerously unsettling.    The first half of the film is the hardest to watch....

Ek Villain Returns Film Review By Manya Malhotra

    Ek Villain Returns Review ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Cast : Arjun Kapoor, Disha Patani, John Abraham, Tara Sutaria Directo r: Mohit Suri Review: Ek Villain Returns is the smiley face-filled sequel to the Blockbuster film Ek Villain . If you did not get the smiley reference, you should probably  check out the first film in the franchise—or not if you value your sanity even a little. I went into the hall for Ek Villain Returns highly sceptical, and willing to wholly suspend disbelief. My decision to do so paid off greatly as I denied myself my usual urge to protest exasperatedly when the hero, or villain, or whatever humiliated and terrified a famous singer to clear the stage (literally) for an up-and-coming artist who he happened to fancy. I also bought it when, impressed by this charming gesture the girl ended up falling head over heels in love with the man.   This is Director Mohit Suri’s world, here love always coexists with pain...
