WATCH NOW As much as comics captured my attention as a child, I spent more time reading Marvel comics than DC, but I did not read Spider-Man. I was more interested in The Punisher and Xavier’s X-Men, with the former being my favourite character, which is ironic. As for Spider-Man, he is one of Marvel’s […]

The indie sci-fi movie “Kill Switch” is the worst type of science fiction ever made. It does not deliver a theme that touches the viewer in the heart or the mind but rather relies on a central gimmick to keep the viewer entertained. In this case, we explore an alternate earth as experienced by Will

WATCH NOW This 2009 disaster film, titled Mega Fault, has made its mark mostly due to its offbeat reputation. Primarily it is known as the last performance of a talented actress before her premature death. With all due respect to the actress’s legacy, this film is certainly not a fine cinematic jewel. To my surprise,
WATCH NOW When I first saw Don Bluth’s animated movie ‘All Dogs Go to Heaven’, the first thing that caught my attention was the colours rich vivid colours that mark every classic animated feature. The closing maintenance of the Technicolor colour process float system led to a shift in the motion picture industry, as it

And while on the surface it might deceptively seem to have the same elements, the narrative is driven by malfunctioning AI systems, cynical and sociopathic characters, as well as inattentive clans, straying far from what the genre dictates. Senechal

WATCH NOW When I went to Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse yesterday, I wasn’t sure what to expect. It’s been five years since the wonderful Into The Spider-Verse came out, and that movie totally blew my mind. But five years and a pandemic later, who knows? I’ve been burned by so many sequels. Turns out, I
WATCH NOW “After Earth” is a great treat. This Will Smith co-production, directed by M. Nights Shyamalan, is about a father and son stranded on earth in the distant future. It’s an action-packed film with monuments interspaced inexorably between the plot. It’s a far cry from a classic, but still a unique film: striking and

WATCH NOW I was meant to write this brief post on ‘Game to Live Action Movie Marathon’ last year but never got around to it. In my defence, I would like to think I am being reasonable by not wanting to spend my hard-earned cash on another Paul Anderson film. But as luck would have
