A Complete Unknown review: Timothée Chalamet is 'brilliant and believable' in 'conventional' biopic

BBC

A Complete Unknown review: Timothée Chalamet is 'brilliant and believable' in 'conventional' biopic Macall Polay Despite its "kinetic performances and irresistible music" from star Timothée Chalamet and cast, James Mangold's Dylan biopic is disappointingly unambitious. All those films are more resonant and creative than the much-anticipated A Complete Unknown, in which Timothée Chalamet plays Dylan from his arrival in Greenwich …

‘Showtime’ series review: Emraan Hashmi is good fun in showbiz satire

The Hindu

For reasons unknown, Dharmatic Entertainment isn’t done playing The Fame Game. Frequently silly, soapy and salacious, this show — fronted by Emraan Hashmi and Mahima Makwana — is a fairly brisk and modest affair, unambitious TV that can furnish a few hours of gossipy good fun. Their newest opus, ambitiously titled ‘Imaan-e-Ishq’, has crashed and burned at the box-office, an …

Review: Eugenio Derbez’s Hulu rom-com ‘The Valet’ finds its own space

LA Times

“The Valet” starts with a “fake lovers” premise routine in rom-coms, but this Hulu original film doesn’t park in the wide-open spot. Fresh off his impressive dramatic turn in “CODA,” Mexican comic star Derbez takes a role that could have been flat — the nice guy/sad sack/passive protagonist to whom things happen rather than the driver of the action — …
