“Part of the pleasure is having the cast members share our love for the show. It’s a strangely deep camaraderie that reaches out of the television into our living room. When the show opens to David Schwimmer getting overwhelmed at the sight of the set, on some level, you experience this too.”

Woman in the Window Movie Review: An unsatisfying jumble of genre tropes
“From classics like Rosemary’s Baby to the recent Girl on the Train, the women at the centre have had a hard time getting people to believe their truth. However, where meaningful stories and powerful cinema succeed in creating emotional involvement with the protagonist, Woman in the Window feels like a dish served straight from the refrigerator. The ingredients are all there, as is the dish, but there’s little taste and there’s no warmth.”
Mortal Kombat Movie Review: This uninspired adaptation extracts a fatality in you
“Films like this don’t seem to understand that gratification from action sequences is often a consequence of the buildup preceding it. This film’s idea of build-up is to move from one rushed introduction to another, leaving you apathetic towards them all.”
Paramapadham Vilayattu Movie Review: Hilariously strange events happen in this rudderless dud
“The most conviction you spot in this film is when actor Richard barks. There’s a sentence I never thought I’d ever type in a film review.”
Karnan Movie Review: Mari Selvaraj’s dance of defiance makes for glorious cinema
Each time, Karnan shows spunk, these angels rise. They appear in dreams as guides; they appear as voices of encouragement and applause. They even dance about, when, finally, war seems inevitable. There can be no peace when the real authorities, police officers tasked with the role of being guardians, turn out to be agents of oppression instead. ‘Utraadheenga Yappo’ calls them ‘thoppi potta pei’ and warns, ‘kandavana adikka varaan; kanavayellaam posukka varaan’.
