Monument (2026) Film Review

Image
  Directed by Bryan Singer, *Monument* is set in Lebanon following the 1982 Operation Peace for Galilee, a time when Israeli forces remained in the country. The South Lebanon Army commissions Israeli architect Yaakov Rechter—who works alongside his son, Amnon—to build a memorial honoring Lebanese soldiers. Yaakov accepts the deal, but Amnon decides to alter the initial terms: he intends to build the memorial to honor *all* fallen soldiers, regardless of their background or the cause for which they died. Starring Jon Voight and Joseph Mazzello, *Monument* is a drama that, while perhaps not groundbreaking in its genre, excels at telling a compelling story. The film chronicles the history of the actual memorial—a structure that stood for only 36 hours before being blown up by those who opposed it. It also highlights the individuals who participated in creating this massive artwork and the dangers they faced amidst the volatile political climate. Ethical dilemmas are almost inevitable ...

Movie Review: Obsession (2026)

Image
Inde Navarrette and Michael Johnston in a scene from 'Obsession' Cinema repeatedly returns to a familiar male fantasy—perhaps because men keep finding new ways to demonstrate that they have "created" it: a woman is written, molded, programmed, and brought into existence through sheer desire. She responds to loneliness, insecurity, humiliation, and longing. *Pygmalion* gives us Galatea. *Ruby Sparks* allows a blocked novelist to revise his dream girl by typing commands into a manuscript. That film and *Ex Machina* transport this fantasy into the age of artificial intelligence, where love can be designed, simulated, or weaponized via screens. Then, last year’s *Companion* transformed that fantasy into one of the sharpest genre films of recent times—a movie about control, consent, and the terrifying realization that someone else might label the subversion of your autonomy as "love." Kari Barker’s *Obsession* falls into the same category, though it is a bit rou...

The galaxy far, far away shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon, with new installments, spin-offs, and retcons being added to the franchise every year since 2015. Given the unconventional release order of the films , deciding the best sequence in which to watch them isn't easy: do you start with the first movies—the original trilogy from 1977–1983—then go back to the prequels, and later move on to the new Rey trilogy? Die-hard fans might argue for the release-date order, while others would encourage following the chronological timeline—and some might even suggest skipping certain entries altogether to avoid disappointment.But with the addition of anthology films like *Rogue One* and numerous spin-off shows, there is really only o...

Credit: Alamy Although it was initially created to capitalize on the horror buzz following the success of John Carpenter's epic slasher Halloween, when Sean S. When Cunningham's Friday the 13th was released, Jason Voorhees gave Halloween's Michael Myers a run for his money, allowing The Camp Crystal Lake Killer to emerge as a horror icon in his own right. The upcoming franchise may not have proven very popular among film critics, but it garnered a huge fan base, becoming the highest-grossing franchise in horror history until Universal and Blumhouse's release of a direct sequel to the original Halloween last year.Over the past few years, audiences have seen a total of ten actual sequels, a crossover, and a reboot—with each new entry incorporating various adjustments (some subtle, others downright bizarre) to entice fans to come back f...

A quiet night, a cup of coffee and the sea

Image
My favorite night plans are a simple one— coffee and the sea. I find it very peaceful to sit on the seashore at night in Mumbai and enjoy coffee. I will reach my coffee at the seaside. Holding a cup of hot coffee in the cool breeze feels like a perfect combination. I slowly sip coffee and watch the waves in front of me. I don't remember any busy schedule in such moments. I just enjoy the present moment. Sometimes I see city lights, sometimes the ocean and sometimes the sky. If the night sky is clear, then watching the stars becomes my favourite activity . I thought how beautiful it is that even in such a busy city we can spend a few moments with nature. I sometimes listen to music with coffee. Sometimes soft songs and sometimes old favourites. But sometimes the main music also stops and only the natural sound of waves is heard. I feel that there is no need to make happiness complicated. Sometimes a cup of coffee, cool breeze and the sound of the sea can improve your mood. I find s...
