Season 2 of Kung Fu Panda: The Dragon Knight (January 12)

The Raid: Redemption, an Indonesian thriller, stunned moviegoers in 2011 with its almost nonstop action packed with stunts they had never seen before. It was recognized with accolades, included in multiple festivals as an official selection, and appeared on lists of the greatest action movies ever made, not just this year but ever. Only too bad nobody noticed it.Just $15 million was made worldwide by The Raid, with $4.4 million coming from the United States. Nonetheless, it acquired a following. The film received enough recognition from its accolades and positive word-of-mouth to draw the attention of Hollywood and spark discussions of an American remake. Additionally, it assured an American distribution for The Raid 2: Berandal (the Indonesian word for "thug," "berandal"), which carried on the original Indonesian tale.Raid was always going to be a trilogy, according to director Garth Evans, with each movie building on the world that was established in the first, and Berandal does just that. Berandal is a martial arts-infused crime drama, similar to Redemption, which was an action movie with a martial arts theme. While there was just one drug lord in the first movie, we meet his boss and a number of other underworld figures in Berandal. Both the magnitude and the stakes have increased.Though Berandal is not a picture for the faint of heart, there are still plenty of graphic and masterfully shot moments of violence. Ever ponder what would happen to a person if a shotgun blast was fired from only a foot away? Hopefully not, but Berandal provides the answers to that and a tonne of other gory questions. However, the action usually has nothing to do with the gore. It's mostly there for emphasis rather than extravagance, and the choreography still includes the balletic elements that made the original one stand out.All of the Redemption's successful components are kept, and many of its flaws—the majority of which have to do with plot and character development—are fixed in Berandal.Hours after the first film's climax, The Raid sequel opens with Rama (Iko Uwais) being adopted by a covert police division that needs his assistance in rooting out dishonest cops around Jakarta. Reluctantly, he goes undercover as an inmate at a nearby prison in order to protect his family. There, he meets Uco (Arifin Putra), a target for other prisoners trying to establish a reputation, who is the son of notorious criminal lord Bangun (Tio Pakusadewo).

The enchantment of true-crime: Unravelling the mystery with makers and fans

With their distinct appeal, true-crime films and television series have dominated the over-the-top market in recent years. In order to comprehend the allure of the genre and its steadily rising viewership, we spoke with filmmakers and enthusiasts.In summary, audiences have a particular place in their hearts for true-crime films and documentaries. Actually, throughout the previous 56 years, there has been a significant increase in the development of these features. We talk to fans and filmmakers to learn about the special appeal of the genre. Crime makes money. Genuine criminality is in high demand. But what is it about the genre of true crime that draws us in? Is it our curiosity, our sense of relief, or just an exciting way to engage that draws us in as viewers? We've come a long way from House of Horrors (2014) to the Indian Predator series on Netflix (2022). Over the last five-six years, the genre has seen a global upsurge on OTT platforms, The producer of the recently released Netflix video "Curry & Cyanide: The Jolly Joseph Case," Chandni A. Dabas, Business Head, Originals & Special films at India Today Group, talked to IndiaToday.in on the appeal of such films for both her and their prospective audience. Regarding the attraction of true crime in particular, Chandni remarked, "There are two main reasons: the tale itself is fascinating. The real world is not like fiction. People are curious about human potential. I guess that's always one aspect of it. Additionally, there is a feeling of relief, like, "Thank God that didn't happen to me." There are essentially two elements that play with the viewer's mind: naturally occurring turns and turns, and hopefully a lesson learned to be cautious.Crime makes money.

Reviews of Saindhav X: Sailesh Kolanus film has received praise for Venkatesh and Nawazuddin Siddiquis performances.

Reviews by Saindhav X: Here are the reactions of fans to Sailesh Kolanu's Venkatesh and Nawazuddin Siddiqui film, which debuted on January 13.Director Sailesh Kolanu tried his hand at a commercial potboiler with a heartfelt tale following the success of the HIT franchise. Both reviewers and audiences had differing opinions about the movie, which starred Venkatesh, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Shraddha Srinath, Ruhani Sharma, and Andrea Jeremiah. However, if reviews on X are any indication, the majority of people appear to concur that the main cast has done an excellent job.Reactions from fans Nawazuddin portrayed a vicious yet witty mobster in the movie named Vikas Malik. "Audience are in love with Nawazuddin sir's performance," wrote one fan after seeing him play. Every time he enters the scene, there's a dash of humor. He simultaneously evoked humor and dread, as Sailesh stated. "A movie with a routine plot point but set with good action sequences," commented another enthusiast. Out of all the actors, Nawazuddin Siddiqui is the most distinctive. The climax works well. The film is mediocre and worth seeing only once."#Saindhav, falls short, hindered by a lack of deep emotional setup, not so well executed action sequences and a less impactful background score except for the climax and climax portions," wrote one fan, expressing appreciation for Venkatesh's portrayal. However, #VenkyMama's moving performance in the epilogue adds a sincere touch. "#Venkatesh did his best in action and emotional scenes," a second fan commented. I loved #NawazuddinSiddiqui. (Heart emoji) was the father-daughter's emotion.Fans who had nothing good to say about the movie were frank in their criticism, writing, "Story chinnadi ainapudu danni prolong chesi teeyala anna @KolanuSailesh." Action sequences are well-planned, and the emotional parts are presented in a way that makes the spectator feel engaged and involved. #Saindhav #Venkatesh #SaindhavReview Too phony of a car scene with firearms. (There's no reason to turn a short story into a movie. While the combat moments were well done, the emotional scenes lacked impact. The scene with the automobile and weapons was overly staged.)" "Total - 320 Rupees tirigi icheyali (Give me back the ₹320 I paid for the ticket, snacks, and parking for your film)" was the jest expressed by another fan.In the fictitious port city of Chandraprastha, where Saindhav, also known as Saiko (Venkatesh), lives a happy life with his small daughter, Saindhav is situated. When she is diagnosed with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), his life completely falls apart because the injection alone requires ₹17 crore, which is money he cannot afford. He is pulled back into the hazardous world of crime he left behind out of desperation to save his daughter. The director leaves us hanging by implying that we will see this character again in a follow-up.  

Review of Ayalaan Sivakarthikeyans science fiction movie suffers from a rough script

Ayalaan, directed by Ravikumar, features Sivakarthikeyan and Sharad Kelkar in a lighthearted sci-fi movie featuring an adorable alien. Our evaluation states that the film's poor writing is the main reason of its shortcomings.Filmed over nearly six years, Sivakarthikeyan's "Ayalaan" is a film plagued by financial restrictions. After much effort, actor-director Ravikumar has managed to get the film released shortly before Pongal. The filmmaker of "Ayalaan," Ravikumar, is the same one who gave Tamil cinema the delightful sci-fi picture "Indru Netru Naalai." With this Pongal release, however, has "Ayalaan" been able to impress the audience? Let's investigate."The Cosmic Odyssey of Sivakarthikeyan: Ayalaan Revealed" "Ayalaan," an ambitious science fiction film starring Sivakarthikeyan, takes viewers on an incredible journey within the Tamil film industry. The story, which was written and directed by R. Ravikumar, follows an alien as it descends to Earth and develops an unexpected relationship with humanity."Venkat Senguttuvan: The Protagonist from Beyond" Sivakarthikeyan portrays Venkat Senguttuvan, an alien who brings a distinct mix of amazement and fascination to the role. The alien who develops an odd bond with the human world gains charm from his presentation."Siddharth's Voice: Giving the Aliens More Nuance" Siddharth's voice gives the extraterrestrial figure a fascinating depth that transcends the visible plane. The audience and the alien are better able to relate as a result of the actor's subtle delivery, which adds depth and emotion.  

Review of Journey Cherans online series is unsatisfactory to watch

Journey, director Cheran's OTT debut, is a web series that follows five young people as they compete for a job at a corporation. Our evaluation claims that the play is overflowing with cliched notions.Tamil director Cheran is renowned for his realistic depictions of the complexity of interpersonal interactions in his motion pictures. In 2019, he made his last directing attempt, "Thirumanam," which ultimately failed. Cheran is ready to launch his over-the-top (OTT) career after four years with "Journey," which is currently available on SonyLiv.The narrative centers on five characters who have advanced to the last round of interviews at a car company: Ameer Sultan (Kalaiyarasan), Divya Bharathi (Latha), Raghav (Prasanna), Nitesh (Kashyap Barbhaya), and Pranav (Aari Arjunan). Only one candidate will be chosen for the position, which gives a monthly salary of Rs 4 lakh, by the company's owner, Sarathkumar. Over the course of the nine-episode series, the backstories of the five candidates—each with a distinct motivation for wanting the job—come to light.The television program "Journey" centers on five distinct characters who encounter hardships in their individual lives. Because of an error he made, Nitesh is banished from his house. Latha discovers her potential when a guy mentors her in agriculture, and Pranav enters politics after becoming a social crusader. Ameer is defending himself in a case where he was wrongfully implicated in the interim. Abrupt changes in policy force Raghav, a US employee, to return home to India.The goal of the show is to investigate the concepts of oppression, emotion, struggle, and aspiration. Even though "Journey" has a genuine goal, filmmaker Cheran only performs a mediocre job at thoroughly covering the subjects. Rather, the show is overly packed with dated concepts, which makes it difficult to watch. We are reminded of the numerous movies where we are made to learn about agriculture by the scene in which Latha learns about it.It is relatable to learn about Raghav's life in the US and the problems he has because of changes in visa laws. But this part is poorly constructed and only goes so far as to hint at the subject. Even while it depicts immigrant problems, it scarcely provides a nuanced perspective. For Nitesh and Pranav's sections, the same applies. Ameer's life touches on a few significant subjects, however they are overshadowed by other events. The most ridiculous scene, though, is when Jayaprakash, an actor, dresses up as a low-budget Sherlock Holmes and spies on the five interview hopefuls under the guise of evaluating their actual talents.  

Killer Soup review: Manoj Bajpayee, Konkona Sensharma serve a bland broth

A dark comedy adorned with murder and mayhem, served with a side order of "paya" soup and a dream platter of Manoj Bajpayee and Konkona Sensharma? When I learned about Abhishek Chaubey's upcoming web series, "Killer Soup," for 2024, I thought, "Sign me up already." I hate to say it, but this mixture, which had so much flavour and freshness in it, only seldom worked for me. The benefits come first. The charming Mainjur, a little village near Madurai, serves as the ideal backdrop for a twisting story full of sketchy characters and sketchier deeds. Husband and wife team Prabhakar or Prabhu Shetty (Manoj Bajpayee) and Swathi (Konkona Sensharma) are having what seems like an endless dispute; she is dreaming of opening her own restaurant, while he is attempting to figure out how to get out of a multi-crore "ghapla." The foul-mouthed, streetwise Arvind Shetty (Saiyaji Shinde), Prabhu's older brother, is unhelpful; he keeps the family's purse strings tight and his art-loving daughter Apeksha, called Apu (Anula Navelkar), even tighter, forbidding her from pursuing her dreams. The gravelly-voiced Lucas (Lal), Arvind's longtime factotum, is aware of the location of the skeletons and is a caretaker of former secrets. There seems to be a lot of potential for a fly in the soup. or several. A happy private investigator pulls out a camera and takes embarrassing pictures. There's a hint of blackmail. Umesh Pillai (Manoj Bajpayee in a dual role), Prabhu's squint-eyed masseuse, shows up at the wrong location and time.Killer Soup is a cleverly written crime and investigative comedy that is characterized by astute writing and flawless performance. It is witty, cunning, and incredibly amusing. One of its two main protagonists is the incompetent chef Swathi Shetty (Konkona Sen Sharma), who aspires to open her own eatery.Consider Swathi Shetty, her most recent invention. She is a horrible chef and homemaker who makes her husband Prabhu (Manoj Bajpayee) the same boring paya soup every day. They reside in a made-up southern hill town where Prabhu manages a failing real estate business. Although her husband finds Swathi's goal of opening her own restaurant unrealistic, Umesh, her hidden lover (who is also Bajpayee), graciously encourages her. Umesh is a narrow-eyed masseuse who has debts from gaming. Though he treats Swathi kindly, Prabhu is wealthier. Swathi hedges her bets by pausing for a long, delightful moment before answering Umesh's question, "Do you love me?"  

Criminal Record review: New Apple show is the British antithesis to Delhi Crime; it’s addictive but not unmissable

The new Criminal Report crime-thriller series from Apple is weakened by a propensity for misdirection. Written by Paul Rutman, the eight-episode series pits two London investigators against each other when a seeming long-forgotten murder case appears out of nowhere. One is an experienced police officer, while the other is a wet-behind-the-ears rookie. What comes next is a cat-and-mouse game that works more like a psychological suspense story than a cop story with social responsibility, Detective Sergeant June Lenker, portrayed by Cush Jumbo, receives a distress call from a young woman who whispers to the operator that her life is in jeopardy. She says that her boyfriend is also to blame for the murder of another young woman more than ten years ago. Errol Mathis, a Black man, was found guilty of the crime and given a 24-year prison sentence; nevertheless, the woman thinks Mathis is innocent. DS Lenker learns that the case's investigating officer was the notorious Detective Inspector Daniel Hegarty, a no-nonsense Glaswegian who was intensely and scorchingly portrayed by Peter Capaldi in the television series.Review of Criminal Record: Despite having two of the best actors in the business in Peter Capaldi and Cush Jumbo, Apple's new series works better as a psychological thriller than a standard police procedural.

Written by Paul Rutman, the eight-episode series pits two London investigators against each other when a seeming long-forgotten murder case appears out of nowhere. One is an experienced police officer, while the other is a wet-behind-the-ears rookie. What follows is a police procedural with a social conscience that plays more like a psychological thriller than a cat and mouse game.Few contemporary topics are unaddressed in Apple TV+'s newest drama, "Criminal Record," including misogyny, elder care, police brutality, racism, colorism, poverty, and fascism. Though co-leads Cush Jumbo and Peter Capaldi give compelling performances, the film's direction, script, and photography condemn it to Apple's ever-expanding collection of drab dramas.The idea isn't completely pointless: Fearful and unable to identify herself, the lady contacts a domestic abuse hotline from a phone box, sobbing as she claims her abusive boyfriend is the one behind a cold case murder that another guy is serving a 24-year term for. Before she can say anything more, CCTV footage captures her running away after being scared off by some straggling young people on bicycles.  

I was offered Karmma Calling ten years ago, says Raveena Tandon.

Raveena Tandon discussed how difficult it was to play a grey character in Karmma Calling during the trailer's premiere.Karmma Calling on Disney Plus Hotstar will feature Raveena Tandon as a grey character. The mystery thriller-style program has a very captivating trailer that was released today. The actor discussed how difficult it was to depict a character with gray tones during the Karmma Calling press conference."Indira Kothari is very different from the real person that I am," the actor revealed. Because I did not want my thoughts to be reflected in this position, there was always a dilemma. I've been trying to play different characters for years, like KGF 2 or Aranyak. I've been spotted by people under many avatars. However, Karmma Calling is the first, and it was difficult.Sincerity, in the opinion of Raveena Tandon, is the secret to nailing any character. Being a real actor is a benefit. After 33 years, from the 1990s to the present, I've come to the conclusion that sincerity, honesty, and a lot of hard effort are what define an actor. Your job is unique if these are present in every character, the speaker stated.Speaking about her belief in karma, the actress said, "I am a spiritual person. " Thus, in my opinion, you get what you sow. The universe has prepared this journey with the spectacle. Ten years ago, I had an offer for the program, but I was unable to accept it because my son Ranbir had just been born. However, after ten years, karma brought this back to me. Namrata Sheth and Varun Sood play significant parts in Karmma Calling as well. On January 26, the program will be available on Disney Plus Hotstar.Origins of Karmma Ten years ago, I accepted this show. In an exclusive interview with Hindustan Times, Raveena stated that only anything that is intended to happen truly occurs when the stars align. When director Ruchi Narain approached Raveena for her Star TV debut, the actress said that because her son Ranbir Thadani was still a little child, she wouldn't be able to take time off for the lengthy shoot.Luckily for her, the show did not become popular. Ruchi convinced Star India's Gaurav Banerjee that Revenge, the ABC murder drama, would make a great TV series. He made an attempt to ABC Network, Star's then-rival, but they were unable to obtain the adaptation rights, so they had to shelve it. But years later, Disney, the parent business of ABC, bought Fox, the parent company of Star. It made it possible for Gaurav, who is currently head of content at Disney+ Hotstar, to approve Ruchi's version of her revenge story, Karmma Calling.

Hello Kameeni Official Trailer: Starring Drishika Chander and Asheema Vardhaan

Story: When Gauri (Aasheema Vardhaan) meets the mysterious Kamini (Drishika Chander), who confounds her with her behavior, her life takes an unexpected turn. When Gauri sees the least known aspect of Kamini, how will she respond? Review: "Hey Kameeni," which was co-written and directed by Mani Shankar, delves into the fascinating interactions between the two main characters, Aasheema Vardhaan and debutante Drishika Chander. The movie fails to live up to expectations in spite of its important issue. The story begins with Kamini, an enigmatic girl who doesn't seem to know who she is, roaming the streets of the city in order to accomplish an impossible task. Gauri becomes caught up in Kamini's web, providing her with a place to stay and a work at a nearby cafe. Gauri, who had blindly trusted Kamini, quickly discovers that she is falling in love with the enigmatic outsider. AsThe main problem with the picture is its 120-minute running length, much of which is devoted to establishing Kamini's reclusive personality. Sadly, rather than being interesting, this becomes increasingly complicated and repetitious. Although there are some surprising turns that light a spark, the main characters' relationship isn't deep enough to arouse true feelings. The last half hour of "Hey Kameeni" is when the story really starts to come to life. Although Aasheema and Drishika give sincere performances, their roles don't leave much opportunity for character growth. The absence of subtlety in the narrative results in an experience that oscillates between the stolid and the barely passable. Gauri is thrown into an exciting, adrenaline-filled world by Kamini's unconventional demeanor. Gauri in Aasheema, a sweet, innocent girl with flaws,The movie tries to tackle societal views and millennial anxiety, but it doesn't really offer a fresh viewpoint. Although it misses the chance, the female-led suspense thriller has the ability to express the feminine point of view. Like the film's sudden line, "Wakt aane par aurat se bada koi mard nahin hota" (No man is greater than a woman when the time comes), 'Hey Kameeni' appears to have been a wasted chance to convey a strong message. Finally, "Hey Kameeni" stumbles with the plot's pacing, leaving viewers wanting more character nuance and a deeper understanding of the movie's central ideas.  

Stars of the Indian Police Force, Vivek Oberoi and Shilpa Shetty, Report for Duty in Style

With the web series Indian Police Force, which stars Sidharth Malhotra, Shilpa Shetty, and Vivek Oberoi, Rohit Shetty is set to make his OTT debut. In a recent interview, the director discussed it and said that he purposefully avoided using explicit language or sex scenes in his series as a sign of respect for Indian culture.Except for one or two episodes where it was necessary for the characters to speak that way, Rohit Shetty claimed that the Indian Police Force doesn't even have many profanity phrases on a podcast with comedian Bharti Singh and her husband Haarsh Limbachiyaa. "There are a few profanity-filled words in a few episodes; this is also because the characters are law enforcement officers." Other than that, nothing obscene or sexual. There are differences in our Indian culture. We are still well-respected and well-known for that. While those who are producing it are not at fault, the core audience is not comfortable at all. (I want to avoid unsettling my main audience.)""Chennai Express, I was at the airport where a lady came to me and thanked me," he continued, adding that it was through Chennai Express that he realized the value of family-friendly movies. "Thank you very much," she exclaimed. My daughter is 2.5 years old, and she wakes up at a certain point of the day when I have to perform household chores. I then turned on Chennai Express. That's when I discovered this.Indian Police Force, Sidharth Malhotra's next OTT series, is creating a lot of buzz. Vivek Oberoi and Shilpa Shetty co-star in the show directed by Rohit Shetty. The creators have now revealed a fresh interpretation of Sidharth's role.Sidharth revealed earlier at the press conference that Rohit Shetty "has larger-than-life sensibilities." No one portrays heroes from Hindi cinema like Rohit Sir does. For years, I had been pursuing him to work with him. I had the opportunity to meet him about two years ago.
