  • Brothers

    It’s difficult to imagine anyone making mixed martial arts cheesier than it already is, but Karan Malhotra manages that here.

  • Drishyam

    ...a solid remake, but a film with Tabu as in the Vijay role and Devgn as the cop would have been so much more exciting.

  • Bajrangi Bhaijaan

    Whether you’re a sceptic or a fan, it’s almost impossible to withstand Bajrangi Bhaijaan’s calculated emotional assault. But it’s also tough to shake the feeling that you’re being played.

  • Bombay Velvet

    ...is frustrating and exhilarating in equal measure. Though his ambition is plain to see, I prefer the Kashyap who delivers the shock of the new rather than the glamour of old.

  • Coffee Bloom

    ...isn’t the most exciting of films, but it has a slow-burn intensity that owes a lot to Mathur and Garg’s carefully calibrated performances and Kapoor’s exuberant, pressure-releasing one.

  • Pizza

    Pizza is big on visual trickery and distressingly casual as far as things like plot and credulity are concerned.

  • Children Of War

    ...a welcome indication that some Hindi filmmakers are starting to look outside India for stories. That Devvrat tackles his subject head-on is something else to feel encouraged about.
