Neeya 2: This pretend sequel has no bite

‘One of the two funny priests in this film talks at length about how it’s futile to understand vidhi, and how it can only be experienced. It’s probably a bit like this film itself. No matter how much I write about it, you won’t truly understand till you experience it.’

Avengers: Endgame: An almost meditative, satisfying conclusion mounted on a blockbuster idea

“Even if I shall observe much caution, I’m the reluctant Thanos here forced to wipe away some of your surprises — even if not half — and if you should want to watch this film unpolluted by analysis, you know what to do.”

Uriyadi 2: Vijay Kumar seems to hold back his punches in this unfulfilling sequel

“The gas leak in this film is a straightforward recreation of the Bhopal Gas Tragedy, even if not in terms of scale. The leaked gas is the same: MIC (Methyl Isocyanate), and the process that results in the leak (water getting pumped in accidentally), is the same. There’s more.”

“It helps that despite his sociopathic tendencies, there are altruistic motivations attached to Thanos’ goal. He has this monastic dedication to achieving it.”
