Namma Basava Review

In his debut direction in Kannada Veerashanker is good in bits and pieces. All is not well in 'Namma Basava'. Comparing Puneeth earlier films is inevitable. 'Akash' is a much better film than 'Namma...

Jogi Review

Director Prem on the way to hit a hat trick (his earlier two - Kariya and Excuse Me are super hits) has not belied the expectations. The hype and hoopla generated by this film from the beginning is...

Deadly Soma Review

Deadly Soma is badly made film. The glorification of violence, bloodshed, cutting the heads, legs and hands are very crude and it is as if made for the underworld fraternity. Ravi Srivatsa has no...

Swamy Review

Amrutha Dhaare Review

Ghajini Review

Director Murugadoss has made bold with an absolutely new idea and to his eternal credit makes it work with finesse and flashiness. The film's production qualities (the technical gloss is eye)...

Political Rowdy Review

Remakes are a tight-rope walk. The original would have been made keeping in my strengths of an actor in that language. So it is imperative on those handling the remake to come up with improvisations...

Lokanadhan IAS Review

The title sure sounds imposing and grand. It almost sounds on par with Bharathchandran IPS. But alas, how misleading things could be.Well, if Lokanathan IAS had measured up to at least 50 per cent...
