Spyder (Telugu)

Spyder (Telugu)

Glorification of snooping on unassuming common man is the essence of Spyder
Coming from one of the calm and seemingly trend-setting heroes of Indian cinema today, Maheshbabu's Spyder is a movie I had some expectations of, no not of style and slickness which come in abundance, but of some shining social values, negligent stereotyping and gender discrimination.

Arjun Reddy (Telugu)

Starring: Vijay Devarakonda, Shalini Pandey, Kanchana, Rahul Ramkrishna

Wonder Women (English)

Wonder Women (English)

Starring: Gal Gadot, Chris Pine, Robin Wright. Director: Patty Jenkins

The film's portrayal of Wonder Woman/Diana Prince, played by brilliant actress Gal Gadot, was novel in its portrayal of classically male or masculine traits such as strength, defiance, and stubbornness as being positive and desired characteristics in a woman.
