Ram Setu, directed by Abhishek Sharma, had the potential to be a thrilling adventure but ultimately disappoints with its lackluster execution.

An Action Hero, directed by Anirudh Iyer, is a film that tries to be a satirical take on celebrity culture but ends up being a predictable chase movie. Ayushmann Khurrana and Jaideep Ahlawat’s performances are commendable, but the film’s forced humor and lack of depth make it a forgettable experience.

Despite the star power of Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff, ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ fails to deliver. The film is a cacophony of loud, mindless action sequences and clichéd dialogues that lack depth and originality. The chemistry between the leads is the only saving grace, but it isn’t enough to salvage the film from its predictable plot and lackluster execution. This movie is a stark reminder that even big names can’t guarantee success if the content isn’t up to par.

While ‘Sarfira’ aims to inspire with its tale of grit and determination, it falls short due to its repetitive narrative and lack of originality. Akshay Kumar’s performance is commendable, but the film’s attempt to blend social commentary with a rags-to-riches story feels forced and unconvincing. The movie’s emotional moments are overshadowed by its predictable plot and clichéd dialogues, making it another disappointing addition to Akshay Kumar’s recent string of flops.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is a sequel that packs a punch. It’s a rollercoaster ride of action, humor, and emotion. With its vibrant visuals and memorable characters, it’s a cosmic adventure that’s worth every minute. However, some critics argue that the film’s humor can be hit-or-miss. As a movie lover who appreciates meaningful narratives, I found the film’s exploration of family dynamics and personal growth to be its strongest aspects.
