There are some psycho-thrillers that slowly grab your attention with their intricate storyline in such a way that by the end of the movie, they leave you wanting more. Footfairy is exactly that kind of a thriller. Vivaan Deshmukh (Gulshan Devaiah) is assigned a serial killer case where the killer kills young girls and cuts off their feet. Vivaan is new to town and as he goes on a hunt for clues, he also develops personal relationships in the city. There are a lot of suspects in the case but no concrete proof until all the clues seem to lead to Joshua (Kunaal Roy Kapur), an owner of a restaurant in Bandra. The case seems to be proceeding smoothly until people in Vivaan's personal life start getting threats. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VJ8OWVuca6g

You will stay for the plot

The movie is not your typical crime thriller. The police don't find clues easily and there are no extremely smart detectives at work. You see our detectives finding the smallest clues and seeing where they lead before coming back to square one. This kind of storytelling keeps you at the edge of your seat. The way the story is set also makes it very believable and you would find it plausible that this can happen in real life, which sends more chills down your spine. You are a part of the police work and at no moment you know more than the protagonists which also makes you want to solve the case with them.

Gulshan Devaiah is the star of the movie

It is the first time we have seen Gulshan Devaiah in the lead role and he delivers. You will want to see more of him in similar roles. We see Sagarika Ghatge after a long time on screen and her performance makes us miss her presence on screen. Kunaal Roy Kapur as Joshua is the one you look out for but doesn't appear until much later in the movie. We would have liked to see more of him. Kanishk Verma has directed a masterpiece in terms of a crime thriller and we would like to see more Bollywood movies in this genre. WATCH OR NOT: If you love crime thrillers, you should be tuning in to &Pictures immediately to catch this movie. There is not a lot of gore in the movie so you can watch it if you are one of the people who feel uncomfortable with gory scenes. Director: Kanishk Verma Writer: Ashish P.

If you've seen the trailer for this new Sofia Coppola film On The Rocks, you probably already know the basic storyline. The film opens with Bill Murray's voice telling his daughter Laura (Rashida Jones), "You're mine until you get married and after that, you're still mine." This opening line sets the tone for this film that largely revolves around this father-daughter relationship. Laura is married to Dean (Marlon Wayans) and together they have two gorgeous daughters. Dean is an entrepreneur who is extremely busy and has to travel a lot for work. Laura on the other hand is a writer who is stuck and spends most of her time taking care of her daughters. A few incidents that occur between Laura and Dean make her suspicious that Deal might be cheating on her. She decided to talk to her larger-than-life playboy father who insists that Dean is cheating on Laura and suggests that together they stalk him and catch him in action. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qawW01eTG0  

Bill Murray is smooooth

Bill Murray's character Felix is a smooth talker and along with this deadpan looks make him a charming man but he also happens to be imperfect as husband and father. His past enables him to form a worldview that includes him hitting on every woman he sees including a waitress and his granddaughter's ballet teacher. Rashida Jones does a decent job with Laura who is a sweet woman but her insecurities start cropping when she finds her husband acting a little strange. Since her past involves her parents having a broken marriage, she struggles to find hope that all men are not chauvinist and that maybe her husband loves her for her.

The plot doesn't go very far

The plot doesn't go very far in terms of the story and if you are looking for some twists or turns or even great humor it falls a little flat. It would have also been nice if the plot went a litter deeper into exploring each character.   WATCH OR NOT: On The Rocks makes for a decent one-time watch. But it's best not to go into with a lot of expectations or you may just get a little disappointed.   Director: Sofia Coppola Writer: Sofia Coppola Cast: Bill Murray, Rashida Jones, Marlon Wayans Language: English Streaming on: Apple Tv+
