  • Main Tera Hero

    ...is dumbed down by design. I have no issues with that. My problem is that the frenzied plot didn’t deliver enough funny lines.

  • Mastram

    There are so many ideas here about writing, sexual desire, fantasy, hypocrisy, the artist in the market-place, but they remain unexplored. Mastram is an opportunity lost.

  • Maximum

    Can we all agree that Bollywood has squeezed as much cinema as is humanly possible out of Mumbai’s infamous encounter cops, their weasel-faced informers and the police-politician-builder-underworld nexus?

  • Miss Lovely

    Yes, it is an acquired taste. But Ashim Ahluwalia’s distinct and intriguing voice is one more sign of how fundamentally and excitingly the Hindi film topography is changing.

  • One By Two

    The story by writer-director Devika Bhagat isn’t half-bad but these characters whine too much to be interesting company.

  • Queen

    Ultimately Queen is Kangana’s triumph. I left the theatre thinking about Rani and how the rest of her life would pan out. It’s not often you do that with a Bollywood character. This one is special.

  • Raanjhanaa

    ...despite these flaws, I’m recommending that you see it. Especially for Dhanush who proves that eventually looks don’t matter. Neither does size. All that towers is talent.

  • Ragini MMS - 2

    The problem is that the characters are such insipid, low-IQ cretins that you are hoping that the murderous chudail gets them soon. The writing is so sloppy that eventually it becomes unintentionally funny.

  • Rajjo

    ...a delirium of bewildering narrative, inane dialogue, bad acting and general all-around absurdity that becomes, unintentionally, pure comedy.

  • Revolver Rani

    If you like uplifting, cheerful cinema, then this isn’t the movie for you. But if, like me, you can enjoy bad people doing bad things, then Revolver Rani will be fun.

  • Rowdy Rathore

    ...beats you to a pulp, cinematically. It's a relentless assault that kicks in as soon as the credit titles roll.

  • Satya 2

    This film has no connection – either in quality or in narrative – with the first.

  • Shahid

    Shahid is Raj Kumar’s triumph. His Shahid has strength, anguish and a controlled anger, but also real charm. His smile lights up the frame. See Shahid for him.

  • Student Of The Year

    Karan Johar's forte is excess. He creates fantastical worlds brimming with beautiful people and expensive things and yet anchors them in high emotion. His films work as both designer porn and soap opera. The pleasure you derive from his films is directly connected to your tolerance of candy floss.
