  Movie Review: Jumbo

  You need to look at an animation film differently. Let the kid in you come to the forefront when you watch one. At the same time, it's pertinent that every film, live or animation, should possess that grip to keep the viewer hooked to the proceedings for the next 2 hours.

  Movie Review: Oh, My God!!

  Debutante directors have new stories to tell. Predictability is passé, unconventional is in. First-time director Sourabh Shrivastava's OH, MY GOD!! may give an impression that it's yet another offshoot of BRUCE ALMIGHTY
