  Image - YouTube Unabomber — An Interesting Story That Loses Its Way Intro:   Unabomber  is a 2026 American crime drama directed by Janus Metz Pedersen and written by Sam Chalsen and Nelson Greaves. Starring Russell Crowe, Jacob Tremblay, Annabelle Wallis and Shailene Woodley, the film explores the story of Ted Kaczynski and the investigation that led to his capture. It premiered on Netflix in September 2026. Review (90 Words):  Unabomber  is an interesting subject for a crime drama, but the film doesn't hold my attention throughout. It moves between Ted Kaczynski's early years at Harvard and the FBI investigation in the 1990s. There are moments when the story gets interesting, only to lose its direction again. The performances are good, particularly Jacob Tremblay and Russell Crowe. Interestingly, the background score also caught my attention, especially given my recent interest in film music. But good acting and a promising subject can only do so much when th...

Image - YouTube Reporting Live — A Good Topic, Poor Execution Intro:  Reporting Live  is a 2026 Hindi thriller directed by Dhruv Tripathi, who also co-wrote the film with Mihir Jadhav. Featuring Parineeti Chopra, Deven Bhojani, Adil Hussain, Amol Palekar and Shekhar Suman, the film explores investigative journalism and the challenges of exposing powerful interests. It premiered on Netflix on 9 October 2026. Review (90 Words): After  Pooja Meri Jaan ,  Reporting Live  is another film with a good subject that doesn't quite deliver. This time, the focus is on journalism and an investigation into a bridge collapse. There is enough material here for an engaging thriller, but the execution falls short. The storytelling doesn't create the tension or excitement I expected. For me, the only saving grace was watching Adil Hussain. Having reviewed  Scoop ,  Crime Beat  and  Despatch  earlier, I couldn't help comparing it with those shows and films...

  Image - YouTube Pooja Meri Jaan — Movie Review Intro:   Pooja Meri Jaan  is a 2026 Hindi crime thriller directed by Navjot Gulati and co-directed by Vipasha Arvind. The film stars Mrunal Thakur, Huma Qureshi, Vikram Singh Chauhan and Vijay Raaz. It is currently streaming on ZEE5. Review (90 Words):  I picked up   Pooja Meri Jaan   for Mrunal Thakur, but its premise also caught my attention. How do men handle rejection? One may choose revenge, while another may take the extreme step of suicide. I liked the fact that the film attempts to explore this uncomfortable question. Unfortunately, the execution didn't keep me engaged. Knowing that the film was completed in 2022 also made me wonder if its treatment now feels dated. The subject is still relevant, but the storytelling didn't feel fresh enough for me.   Interesting premise, average execution. #PoojaMeriJaan #MrunalThakur #HumaQureshi #VijayRaaz #ZEE5 #HindiMovies #CrimeThriller #MovieReview #OTTMov...

  Image - Prime Video Dupahiya Season 2 — Back to Dhadakpur Intro:  Dupahiya Season 2  returns to the fictional village of Dhadakpur with its familiar mix of small-town characters, comedy and everyday chaos. The second season brings back Gajraj Rao, Renuka Shahane, Sparsh Shrivastava, Bhuvan Arora and Shivani Raghuvanshi, and premiered on Amazon Prime Video in October 2026. Review (90 Words):  If you are looking for something that doesn't require much attention and can make you smile here and there,   Dupahiya Season 2   can be a handy watch. I found it to be a mix of several stories moving around at the same time, so it doesn't always feel very focused. But if you have seen Season 1 and are curious about where these characters go, Season 2 makes sense. And somewhere along the way, they bring the   dupahiya   back into the business. Also, my curiosity about character names is growing — this time we have   Bhugol and Amavas ! #DupahiyaSeason2...

  Image - YouTube Ohh My Dog Review — Two Journeys, One Beautiful Bond Intro:  Ohh My Dog  is a 2026 Hindi drama written and directed by Amit Rai, who also directed  OMG 2 . The film stars Pankaj Tripathi, Rajesh Kumar, Pawan Malhotra and Geeta Agarwal Sharma, with dogs playing an important part in the story. It is currently streaming on Netflix. Review (90 Words):  Amit Rai, who wrote and directed   OMG 2 , could easily have made   Ohh My Dog   as OMG 3! The film follows two parallel stories — Oscar trying to rescue Prince in Patna and Appu trying to rescue Momo in Assam. You will smile, you may cry, but you will be happy by the end. I particularly liked how the background score changes with both journeys. Appu's mother tying a knot in her saree is another lovely emotional touch. A little stretched, yes, but still a   must watch . It also reminded me of   777 Charlie . Full Review:  Amit Rai wrote and directed   OMG 2 . And af...

  Image - YouTube OMG 2 — More Serious, Still Entertaining Intro:  OMG 2  is a 2023 Hindi comedy-drama written and directed by Amit Rai. A spiritual sequel to  OMG – Oh My God! (2012), the film takes up the subject of sex education in India, with Akshay Kumar, Pankaj Tripathi and Yami Gautam in the lead roles. The film is currently streaming on Netflix. Review (90 Words):  OMG 2   is little different from the first film. While   OMG – Oh My God!   had more comedy and a breezier approach, this one is heavier on dialogue and takes its subject more seriously. But that doesn't mean the humour disappears. There are enough funny moments to keep the film engaging while it talks about sex education, something we still don't discuss openly enough. Pankaj Tripathi is excellent, and Akshay Kumar fits well into the film's unusual setup. It may feel preachy at times, but the subject makes   OMG 2   worth watching. #OMG2 #OMG2Review #AkshayKumar #Pank...
