White Elephant never challenges the intellect, nor is it teaming with originality, but Michael Rooker makes the most of a rare leading role. He elevates the film a notch or two higher than the usual direct-to-video drivel.

The Righteous (2021) Movie Review
The Righteous is slow burning and never particularly scary – not to mention some biblical interpretations that are a tad too literal – the haunting denouement is worth our patience.
The Contractor (2022) Movie Review
Though devoid of surprises or originality, The Contractor is an agreeable time killer for undiscriminating action fans, a film meant to be consumed, enjoyed and forgotten shortly afterwards. In that respect, I suppose you could consider it the Egg McMuffin of action movies…with an Egg McGuffin to drive the narrative.
RRR (2022) Movie Review
RRR is a must-watch movie, but not to be compared with Baahubali. RRR is an interesting movie that will keep you bound with itself and keep you curious about the next incident.
Paan Singh Tomar (2012) Movie Review
Filming of Life of Paan Singh is really interesting, From Starting to ending movie keeps viewer bounded with it. The Area Where Paan Singh worked as Bandit is real and shooted in real places instead of green screen, portrayal of Indian Villages in 1950s is very realistic, Director Tigmanshu Has really done an appreciable job.
A Death in the Gunj (2016) Movie Review
The attention to detail is exemplary: the sword and shield replica wall decor, the white and lavender coloured Yardley talcum powder tin, a drawer with plastic hair rollers, Kashmiri embroidered ponchos… all of which takes the viewer back to the bygone era of the late 70’s and 80’s or even the 90’s (it is strange how those 3 decades seem so similar to each other while 5 years ago from now seem ancient: technology has made time move so fast). Coming from a town around the same region as McCluskieganj, these details are all too familiar. This movie has given me a sense of identity and belongingness like no other.
