Zokkomon is no amusement

Filmy superheroes possess exciting powers, but powers alone can’t save them. What they really need is a plot even stronger than them. Also, a direction that cleverly lets them fight on the ‘no wrong’ route. Zokkomon lacks both – a stronger plot and a clever direction. And thus, sadly enough, the newest Indian superhero fails to make an impressive appeal, for neither the kids nor the adults. His costumes, talents, dialogues and dare doings don’t rescue him from being forgotten.

Dum Maaro Dum lacks Dum

DMD has all sellable ingredients for a full-house flick. It has Goa as the set, drug as the theme, good stars as actors, an item number as a catch and a title that sprigs from a four-decade old iconic song. To help the super mix, the first half matures impressively making a stronger base for the second half. But sadly enough, the more it forwards, more it becomes dull. When the film ends, you may feel it could have been a way better make.

The Roommate gets no home

With a predictable ending, untimely humours and a crashed script, this Roommate doesn’t actually find any home. Somehow, it turns out to be a bad melting pot of two nicely-made art works namely ‘Single White Female’ and ‘Fatal Attraction’. The first part proves out to be the only saving grace as it churns out some intriguing scenes backed by a solid story, but more the film moves forward, more it becomes another crazy chick thriller specifically made for college-going teens, who laugh and scare at every little sound of disbelief. To put it at one go, The Roommate is no fun, especially because it is a waste to its thoughtful story.

Yogi Bear is predictable and no fun

Yogi Bear is a live-action movie thoughtfully made around the adventures and misadventures of a full-of-life bear, who is a pass-time thief without any evil intentions. His tricky doings have a good message and the movie has some cool landscapes to offer the eyes, but as a whole, it doesn’t make for a great entertaining experience. Yogi Bear is watchable as just an okay-type time pass, if nothing more.

Teen Thay Bhai is a Total Tragic Boredom

First, think about the cleverly-done title -‘Teen Thay Bhai’ and we get ready to see what ‘once there were three brothers’ do. Then comes the banging tagline ‘Ek vasiyat 3 musibatt’, giving us a free hint that there is a side-splitting property crux to laugh our lungs out. But as the three brothers grow, as they timidly and actively show why they are here; the film loses its grip and becomes another predictable story of puerile fun.
