Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana
What then keeps you engaged despite the rather implausible plot riddled with misunderstandings is some real good performances, led by the very talented Rajkummar Rao.

Ittefaq
...is not a taut thriller that you expect it to be. But if patience is your asset, this unhurried suspense drama can be watched for Akshaye Khanna's crackling screen presence, acting prowess and sublime charm.

Haseena Parkar
...a poorly written, acted and executed film that unintentionally victimises and thus justifies her warped sense of power under the pretext of 'protecting her family'.

B.A. Pass 2
Eventually, you try to make too much sense of a relatively ambiguous movie, whose story progresses from being unpredictable to bizarre.

Lucknow Central
What essentially works for LC is its classic 'winning against all odds' theme.

Poster Boys
This dramedy that revolves around men who unknowingly promote 'Bina taka nasbandi operation' is a light-hearted and clever take on the population problem that plagues our nation.

Qaidi Band
...means and plays well but lacks the spunk and spirit required to arouse sentiments - rebellious or patriotic.

Trapped
Vikramaditya Motwane’s brilliance lies in turning this unsuspecting setup into a hellish playground.

Commando 2
Overstretched and uninspiring, this film is reminiscent of a poor man's Abbas Mustan film. Even decent action cannot salvage this dreary supposed crime thriller.

The Ghazi Attack
While the visuals and special effects lack finesse, the film compensates for it with its riveting story.

Haraamkhor
...shows a lot of promise but ends up being way too vague to be hard-hitting.

Tum Bin 2
Despite the odds, if you like old-fashioned love stories with great music, Tum Bin 2 is a partially heartrending tale that can be watched for its beautiful message and sincere execution.

Rock On 2
...the script is a major downer. It is way too contrived, directionless and morose to hold your interest. With no strong conflict point to hold it all together, the story goes haywire.

Shivaay
Laced with visual excellence, you applaud his film’s larger than life canvas but despite the efforts, his second directorial venture fails to engage you emotionally.

Saat Uchhakkey
We have no clue what was the director’s vision behind this film but his execution has gone awfully wrong.

M.S. Dhoni
...this cricket movie hits sufficient sixes making the ‘Dhoni Dhoni’ chants reverberate in the theatre.

Days of Tafree
At the end of it, just like the professors, you too want to scream at these boys, saying, "I cannot tolerate this."

Banjo
While the story is pretty formulaic (a bunch of street musicians making it big by winning against all odds), the execution and supporting performances are heartfelt.

Raaz Reboot
This overstretched drama is way too cliched and soppy to hold your interest but it does amuse you in its own unique ways.

Baar Baar Dekho
There are timeless love stories and then stories involving time travel. BBD belongs to the latter. Pleasant and fairly engaging but a tad tedious (like mathematics) to evoke a Baar Baar viewing.

Sitting through this two hour long advertisement feels more exhausting than travelling from Kashmir to Goa by road.

The Legend of Michael Mishra
The film aspires to spoof small town goons in a filmy way but the execution lacks style, substance and humour to fulfill this desire.

Madaari
Kudos to Irrfan and Nishikant Kamat for daring to make this poignant, provocative and politically incorrect piece of cinema, that makes its point unabashedly.
