Primitive War review – it’s Green Berets vs dinosaurs in cheerfully cheesy Vietnam war gorefest

-
Set to an on-the-nose soundtrack of Creedence Clearwater, an elite squad of soldiers are suitably unprepared for their large-toothed assailants in this jungle thriller Aimed squarely and unabashedly at viewers who love soldiers, gore and dinosaurs – as well as dinosaurs goring soldiers – this adaptation of Ethan Pettus’s 2017 novel is deeply repetitive but weirdly watchable. Although shot in Australia with a mostly Australian cast sprinkled with a few American actors, it’s supposed to be set in Vietnam in the late 1960s as the US armed forces take on the Viet Cong. But there are other forces to contend with, and we don’t just mean covert Chinese or Soviet operatives, although the latter do feature significantly here. It turns out a nefarious scientific experiment by one of the aforementioned factions has accidentally ushered a whole army of dinosaurs into the jungle and they’ve begun gaily munching their way through anyone who gets in their way. When one squad of Green Berets go miss...

Pratik Gandhi reveals why he said yes to Madgoan Express; says, “I am exploring this genre for the first time”

-

Pratik Gandhi is currently being seen in Madgoan Express. He is kicked about the film. “It is an out and out comedy with lots of physical and situational humour amongst three friends. I am exploring this genre for the first time on screen. I love comedy and have explored different aspects of comedy on Gujarati stage. But I’m putting myself out there on screen with this genre for the first time and I am excited to see how far I can entertain the audience with this one.”

Pratik believes that physical and slapstick comedy is a difficult genre. It requires a strong discipline and a completely objective approach on an actor’s part towards the performance while performing. An actor should know when to stop in comedy. I always wanted to explore this genre and when Kunal Khemu narrated the script I loved it could put my faith on his vision. Hopefully it reaches to the audience and they enjoy it.”

Pratik is full of praise for his Madgaon Express director Kunal Khemu. “I have been following and watching Kunal’s work since a long time and have been an admirer of his comic timing and strong hold on the sub-genre of comedy. He is a multi-talented artiste. With Madgaon Express, he is also venturing in writing, direction, lyric writing and singing (for one song in the film). I could sense his strong and clear vision in the narration itself. And believe me, it was a fun and enriching journey shooting this film with Kunal as a director

He hit it off instantly with his co-stars. “With Divyendu Sharma and Avinash Tiwari it felt like I was meeting my school friends after a long time. Though we all met each other for the first time on this film the buddy code kicked in almost instantly which I hope has translated in the film too.”

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

-
Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...
