  • Bhavesh Joshi Superhero

    ...Bhavesh Joshi is Vikramaditya Motwane's braveheart attempt at creating a DC (not Marvel, as an in-joke explains, because it's darker) superhero movie. Now whether the Indian audience is ready for such stuff and whether it'll take to it is a big question Indeed...

  • Race 3

    ...the film has something for everyone. An action film combined with family drama is the perfect Eid gift from Bhai to his fans worldwide. At close to 3 hours it does drag in places and tauter editing would really have added to the film.

  • Sanju

    It’s a reexamination of the life of one of our most controversial film stars and Rajkumar Hirani has made every episode seem as real as it could get. But the treatment is such that you don’t end up feeling like you’ve watched a news documentary. Humour is both Hirani’s sword and shield and he has used it well.

  • Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster 3

    ...Dhulia has made an entertaining film which thrives because of the efforts of its main cast. It's an earthy saga, where the boundaries between good and evil are almost nonexistent and hence might not prove to be everyone's cup of tea...

  • Mulk

    In times where rapid radicalisation of the majority religion is taking place, these are unpopular questions which will surely make some people uncomfortable.

  • Karwaan

    Watch the film for the fine acting by the entire ensemble cast. This comedy will surely tickle your funny bone and would make you reflect on life as well...

  • Vishwaroop II

    Somehow, the actor has been overshadowed of late by his (Kamal Hassan) self-indulgent filmmaker avatar. He does everything right in the film as an actor but we're still left with an unsatisfied appetite as we walk out of the theatre...

  • Gold

    There's a silly grin on your face as forgetting the grim reality of today, you feel proud to be an Indian, for a few moments at least...

  • Happy Phirr Bhag Jayegi

    The film has a cracking first half which just zooms by. The second half lags a bit but only because the director is trying to tie all the strands together. But overall, the impact doesn't waver and that's what counts in the long run...

  • Genius

    ...director Anil Sharma has taken too much upon himself. Yes, he has shown us what all his son is capable of doing but neglected to give us a well-rounded film in the process.

  • Stree

    (Writers) Raj and Krishna are known for their wacky humour and they do not disappoint here too. The film is peppered with silly situations bound to keep you in splits throughout.

  • Gali Guleiyan

    Dipesh has set the film in the dimly lit, crumbling lanes of old Delhi and tries to convince you that you’re watching two parallel stories occurring in the same timeline. He aims for a big reveal which isn’t required as the film would have flowed better without it.

  • Halkaa

    ...director Nila Madhab Panda has made a film with its heart in the right place and let’s hope the message it conveys reaches the right pockets...

  • Laila Majnu

    ...isn’t your typical Bollywood romance. It’s not a feel-good story with a happily-ever-after ending but is something that will shake you up emotionally for all the right reasons...

  • Mitron

    ...watch this relatable comedy with your family, and come back with the laughs and a better understanding of generational gap...

  • Manto

    Writer/ Director Nandita Das has written a brilliant script depicting the rise and fall of a genius mind.

  • Ishqeria

    There is a line in the film -- Sabko confuse karna band kar do. That was the director talking to herself but alas she didn’t listen to her own advice.

  • Sui Dhaaga

    Kudos to writer and director Sharat Katariya for coming up with such a rooted tale. And kudos to Varun Dhawan for agreeing to be part of it. He has tried something totally new for him here.

  • Pataakha

    Why do the sisters hate each other -- is the question that pops up in your mind time and again. Sometimes, there is no reason either to love or hate and that’s Bhardwaj’s approach as well as the sudden transformation of their feelings towards each other is just as inexplicable. But these brief niggles aside, Pataakha is a cracker of a watch indeed, total paisa vasool on the strength of the acting alone.

  • Andhadhun

    Watch Andhadhun for it’s zig zag storyline and spot on acting by the entire cast. It's one of those mysteries which you'll like to go back to despite knowing the ending...

    ...both Aayush and Warina have made decent debuts. A little more polish and a better choice of films will surely see them shine in future.
