31st October
Twists are predictable and secondary actors appear half prepared. Also, they keep shifting gears between Punjabi and Hindi.

Saat Uchhakkey
...it has flavour, a seed of a good idea even, something mega-budget films often lack. But like our Dilli Laundas Eleven, it lacks planning and execution.

Beiimaan Love
...is utterly stupid, and involves absolutely no filmmaking. It’s made to provide some voyeuristic pleasure, but fails to do even that.

Tutak Tutak Tutiya
If you are looking for an entertaining, paisa-vasool movie, Tutak Tutak Tutiya should be your pick.

Mirzya
...is visually impressive, but lacks the essence of a heart wrenching love-story.

M.S. Dhoni
Neeraj Pandey’s telling of Dhoni’s life is in equal parts, thrilling, moving and utterly exhausting.

Parched
Watch it for the sake of the celebratory mood or watch it for a heated debate in your bedroom.

Parched
Parched gets bogged down by its good intentions. But these spirited female characters will stay with you.

Wah Taj
At scripting stage, Wah Taj could have been a good watch, but what we see onscreen is totally avoidable.

Banjo
Show patience in the second half, and it may work for you. There’s a lot to like in Banjo.

Freaky Ali
Despite the cliches and melodrama, we found Freaky Ali worth the time and money. From the ‘talented actor’ for the intelligentsia to the common man’s entertainer, Siddiqui is one star we love.

Baar Baar Dekho
...is hardly even a bird’s eye view of the new generation’s choices and desires. Its philosophy lacks strength and gloss takes the centre stage right from the beginning.

Island City
This is a stellar debut film, as much for the storytelling as the subtle handling and dark humour.

Akira
... the writing — by Murugadoss and Santha Kumar — isn’t good enough to give us a memorable heroine.

Island City
...is well paced, nuanced and to the point. Watch it for the sake of good cinema.

A Flying Jatt
...begins on a good note, picks up the pace, throws some light-hearted moments, and then faces the curse of the second half. It drags its feet from becoming the smart film just when it’s needed and goes for the all-explaining commentary.

UnIndian
...has stray moments of warmth and humour, but it’s just not enough. I am interested to see what Mr. Lee does next, though.

Happy Bhag Jayegi
Overall, director Mudassar Aziz’s film is a good watch. The supply of situational comedy won’t end till you leave the theatre.

Mohenjo Daro
It breaks my heart to say this because so much talent and sweat is involved, but Mohenjo Daro is a mess.

Mohenjo Daro
Watch the film if Hrithik’s physique, dancing skills and flexibility are enough to attract you but you can totally avoid it if a grandeur does not make up for the lack of substance, facts and logic.
