Fukrey
...the problem with Fukrey is that the characters and milieu are more engaging than the plot, which gets more far-fetched as it thickens.

Gangs Of Wasseypur
...is by turns absorbing and frustrating. Watching it feels like gorging on too much good food, leaving you feeling more exhausted than satiated. But there is enough in the sound and fury to enjoy.

Gulaab Gang
For a real dose of women empowerment, watch Gulabi Gang, a terrific documentary on Sampat Pal, which is still running in select theaters. Gulaab Gang is the masala remix.

Hate Story
....is being pitched as an erotic thriller but it’s neither very thrilling or particularly erotic. But it does work as unintentional comedy.

Heroine
At one point in Heroine, a character asks: Iss glamour industry mein kaun fraud nahin hota. This film certainly is one.

Imtiaz skillfully creates moments that are at once, tender, funny and fragile. But my problem was that I simply didn’t buy into the story.

Housefull 2
...has exactly the same mix of stars, foreign locations, farcical plot and spectacularly dim-witted comedy as the first Housefull. This is the cinematic equivalent of junk food - when you walk in, you know exactly what you're going to get.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan
...is too tangled to transport you. At almost 180 minutes, it also requires enormous patience. But I recommend that you see it. Because only Yash Chopra could make heartache so attractive and ennobling that his characters wear it like a badge of honor.

Jai Ho
Does his Incredible Hulk-sized charisma falter? No. Was I expecting anything different? No. Is this a film? No.

Khiladi 786
Box office figures suggest that many people enjoy this school of cheerfully moronic cinema, but Khiladi 786 really isn’t my idea of a good time.

Lakshmi
Honestly, I can’t wholeheartedly recommend Lakshmi. In places, it’s repulsive and yet, it demands to be seen. So you decide for yourselves.
