Here is a tale involving four husbands. Husband number one never addresses his wife by her name; instead he calls her "arivu ketta mundam" (brainless torso). Husband number two wants a divorce because his wife has gained weight post delivery. Husband number three cannot digest the fact that his wife is smarter than him; he tries to destroy her self confidence. Husband number four is unhappy because his wife never argues with him; she never checks his phone in his absence. Tamil movie #Irugapatru explores human relationships; it is emotional, sensible and heartwarming. All the actors have done a fantastic job. Rating 3.5/5.

Laura is desperate to bring her deceased daughter back to life. And how does she plan to achieve this dubious goal? By preserving her dead body and later by sacrificing Piper, a young, partially blind woman whom she treats as her own daughter. Will Laura succeed in her mission? Will Piper's brother be able to save her? #BringHerBack is certainly worth watching in the theater. Performances are excellent, especially by Sally Hawkins, who plays Laura. She is loving, caring and creepy, all at the same time. The film masterfully explores the depths of obsession and the lengths one might go to for immortality. Rating 3.5/5.

Congratulations. Your daughter has just attained puberty and has got her first period. Should you feel ecstatic and celebrate? Definitely not. In fact, you should be petrified because a monster will abduct her. She will return home after three or four days, but she will be unable to recollect what exactly transpired. Her periods will completely stop. So, what exactly is the mystery behind this? Why does this happen to every young girl in Chandarpur, West Bengal? This horror story would have seemed impressive on paper, but the film isn't very captivating or bloodcurdling. Running time needs to be reduced by twenty minutes. #Maa2025 rating 2/5.

Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code criminalizes brutality against a woman by her husband or his relatives - it was primarily enacted to safeguard women - but is the "victim" always a woman - Sahadevan has been married for just ten days - suddenly he is accused of abusing his wife Nayana and being unable to satisfy her - but is he really blameworthy - or is the law being misapplied because the lady has no desire to cohabit with her husband - the film raises a pertinent issue and Asif Ali delivers a notable performance. #AabhyantharaKuttavaali rating 3/5.

Sooraj Pancholi plays Hamirji Gohil - a valiant warrior who would go to any lengths to protect the Somnath temple from Muslim invaders - he continues to kill his enemies even after being beheaded - but sadly the film is without redeeming qualities - the screenplay is insipid - the dialogues are mundane - Akanksha Sharma looks good - the running time of 2h 41m is intolerable. #KesariVeerLegendOfSomnath rating 1/5.

Nani serves as the heart of the film - this time he confronts a ruthless syndicate called CTK which believes in killing people brutally and selling their organs - this group has a registered website and the killings are executed following due procedures - will he be able to apprehend them and stop the massacre - will he be able to mend ties with his dad - action is over the top - running time needs to be reduced by 15 minutes - audiences should brace themselves for the fourth installment. #HITTheThirdCase rating 3/5.

Are you ready to watch a Malayalam movie, the likes of which you would never have witnessed before? Are you ready to watch a movie with a very thin storyline but which depicts scrumptious violence and brutal body dismemberment? Are you ready to watch a film where the hero Unni Mukundan's personality totally justifies the gory happenings on screen? If you said "yes" to any of these questions, you should head straight to the closest theater to see the Haneef Adeni-directed #MarcoMovie. The background music by Ravi Basrur enhances the narrative. Running time needs to be reduced by 15 minutes. Rating 3/5.

Even if you are a parent, how acquainted are you with your son, Adam? He used to cry when he came home from school after being bullied. You did not, however, comfort him. As he got older, he came to terms with the fact that he was gay and lonely. He could never be a "happily married" family man. What if he suddenly befriends a handsome guy and they start dating? Would he seek your approval? Would you find it admissible? #AllOfUsStrangers is certainly worth watching, especially for the awesome performances by Andrew Scott and Paul Mescal. Their kinship is sensationally depicted. The film serves as a powerful reminder that the best way to appreciate life is to spend it with those we love. Do watch it. Rating 4/5.
