  • Humshakals

    Trying to review or analyse this Sajid Khan film is like sending a child-crafted-claymated monkey for a brain scan and hoping to find proof of brain activity.

  • Dil Juunglee

    ...is not a film; it’s a bunch of the most vapid characters conceivable, hanging loose, doing some monkey tricks and playing “Audience audience in the hall, who is the most irritating of us all”.

  • Great Grand Masti

    Crudity, vulgarity, titillation, infantility is all one expected but also hoped against hope for it to deliver a few risqué laughs. No such luck. Banal and boring is all you get.

  • Tera Intezaar

    ...is most consistent when it comes to the inherent messiness-it’s tacky in every which way, from the first frame to the last. The tawdriness reflects in every single department of filmmaking.

  • Raaz Reboot

    Nothing changes in the fourth of the Raaz franchisee. If at all the chills and thrills seem to run dangerously out of steam and some scenes turn out unintentionally funny.

  • A Flying Jatt

    A clunky script, comic book flat characters and a wafer-thin plot are propped up by needless song-n-dance routines, juvenile SFX and innumerable fights and confrontations.

  • Commando 2

    ...is an action film that decides to wear another mask; of topicality, social consciousness and patriotism, all for the heck of it. In the process the film loses its own identity entirely.

  • Heartless

    A vehicle to relaunch his son, the director spends a lot of raw stock in showcasing his skills. The problem is he is short on content and a large portion of the film is reduced to a show reel of Junior Suman interspersed with songs that are shot like music videos.

  • Pagalpanti

    Things happen rather randomly on screen—the twists, turns, misunderstandings and reconciliations—and somehow something like a film gets cobbled together.

  • Boss

    Yet another tribute to the escapist entertainers of yore? Ok then, this kind of lazy filmmaking deserves to be hit. With a scale.

  • Bol Bachchan

    If you liked Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s Golmaal, which you sure did, you would want to protest this assault on one of the effortlessly funny films of all time. Here, the effort shows in every scene.
