  • Ek Tha Tiger

    ...surprisingly director Kabir Khan has come up with a new recipe for the current Tiger of the box office. Kabir wants to put his stamp without stamping on Salman’s toes.

  • Jism - 2

    This is the kind of film many will go to watch no matter how bad we say it is simply because this is the closest they get to see an adult star take her clothes off on the big screen in India.

  • Cocktail

    ...once you are done with gushing about the picturesque locales, the hollowness of the subject dawns on you and it is not a good feeling. All the gloss and sauce fail to make us feel for any of the characters because their transitions don’t pass muster.

  • 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.

  • Gangs Of Wasseypur

    All that coolth and pop realism may do well with the die hard Kashyap cult but for the rest of us who paid to watch a bloody saga of revenge, it seems like a long wait at the circus.

  • Shanghai

    With not a single dull moment and every department in fine form, this is tour de force filmmaking. Simply one of the best and bravest films you will see this year.

  • Yeh Khula Aasmaan

    The film unwinds at a lazy, sluggish pace which in itself wouldn't have been such a bad thing if it did create genuinely heart-warming moments without relying on melodrama or a sentimental overdose.

  • Department

    It's high time the filmmaker struggling with form realised that this nauseatingly gimmicky camerawork he has been afflicted with in his last few films distracts from the story.

  • Ishaqzaade

    Writer-Director Habib Faisal succeeds to a great extent in crafting an unpredictable first half full of spunk and spirit, but plays it boringly safe in the second, offering no new solutions or fresh perspectives in a story that has been done to death.

  • Fatso

    Using magical realism Kapoor deals with deep-seated human quandaries in a light-hearted fashion but ultimately fails to realise the potential of the subject.

  • Jannat 2

    This is the kind of film that would have gone straight to video in Hollywood, made strictly for a niche audience of a niche film. So dont worry about missing this. Just a matter of time before they make it again as Jannat 3.

  • Tezz

    Set out to make a thriller, Priyadarshan delivers an unintentional comedy which is neither sharp nor sensible.

  • Hate Story

    The film may give morality a Dam(n) but there has to be logic. Thanks to the jerky narrative, instead of empathising with the characters you start laughing at them.
