Aisha
Director, Rajeshree Ojha has decent intentions but Aisha fumbles and stumbles downhill.

Khatta Meetha
The comedy is tasteless, and has no direction and the story serves no purpose.

Milenge Milenge
Unfortunately, the engaging situations are detailed with lame lines and the good performances are packaged in tacky overalls.

I Hate Luv Storys
Was there any good reason why they had to give us one more reason to cringe at love stories? Sure, I hate luv storys makes for a decent date flick, but it's not perfect and neither is it the kind of imperfect which is out and out enjoyable.

Raavan
It's so confusing when seriousness is dealt with song and dance. Wish the film was advertised as modern Ram Leela performed in a tribal theater. That expectation would have prepped me to deal with the over-dramatization a lot better.

Raajneeti
A could-have-been, wanna-be political thriller lacks the sizzle and cursorily glances over the sleaze. And yet, despite the dull lines, modern Mahabharat is a tale worth watching.

Kites
Lovely locales are shot and edited beautifully and set to some very nice background music. But the story doesn't fly that high.

Badmaash Company
It's everything that's fun about a conjob - the core idea, the wool-over-the-eyes, the joke at the victim's expense. Everyone gets their just desserts and surprisingly all ends well.

Yeah-yeah-yeah the comedy is not bad, or let's just say it's better than what one would expect from this team.

Chase
Run away. And run away fast. You don’t want to watch a bunch of non-actors in a shabbily edited thriller, even if the story is not-bad.

City Of Gold
Sure, the concept is nice. But, the nice stuff stops there. It's just the loud and annoying way in which things play out that gets on your nerves after about an hour. And there is another 1.5 hours to go.

Phoonk 2
Not that it was very difficult to make anything better than the first in this series, yet, this one came as a pleasant shock.

Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai
It tries to be funny, but is barely so. It tries even harder to be sweet and romantic and ends up being yucky-mushy.

Prince
The question shouldn't be, "Is it good or not?" it should be, "How bad is it?" Action we saw in yesteryears, dialogue we have been listening to from earlier than that. The lameness of a story and its execution, of course, has been taken to a new level.

Pankh
Disturbing abstract stuff. The entire film feels like one huge hallucination. Even if you are ready to take the flight of fancy with a boy who's seriously troubled because his mom made him play girl-roles in films when he was young, it won't be a fun ride at all.

Tum Milo Toh Sahi
Why do decent story, sweet characters played by wonderful performers have to so often be marred by a crappy climax? Why-o-why-o-why?

Well Done Abba
We live in corrupt times and how?! Well done Abba reminds us of that and more. It reminds us of the gravity, the irony and our own submissiveness to the whole do. Would have worked much better if it were about an hour shorter.

Hum Tum Aur Ghost
Medical science and the super-natural power of seeing dead people are mixed. This would have been fine if the light vein didn’t mix so abruptly but with the overflow of sentiments. Ultimately we are left with a dissatisfactory resolution which seems unintentional.

Lahore
Same old need for sisterhood between two countries which have been at war for what, 6 decades now? Of course, we need truce but not sure if we need a movie on the issue with the backdrop of a sport that seems to mean more war than anything else.

Love Sex Aur Dhokha
Each of the three stories has a newspaper story item quality about it and thus is as enchanting as that can get. But the novel way in which it is recorded and narrated is engrossing. But, be warned it is not your movie if you are the kind who takes offense easily or can't handle non-escapist cinema.

Right Yaaa Wrong
An engaging story is told using a number of clever twists. The intelligent outwitting however is let down by some awful performances and a rather slowed-down pace.

Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?
The light tone keeps you engaged for most of the film, especially the parodied songs. There are a few "aawwww" moments too. But, it is a tiny lecture on the changing value system and gets a little sarcastic.

An intentionally ambiguous film. A film very purposefully left open to interpretation.

Karthik Calling Karthik
...the twist is indeed worth the time because it's not 100% predictable. If nothing else Farhan Akhtar's ace performance is something you will relish for quite a while.
