Ek Villain
A well-made potboiler that loses points for being the result of unabashed plagiarism.

Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu
...a delightful film that keeps getting better along the way, and ends fabulously.

Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu
...leaves you occasionally on a high, but also a tad disappointed. With the body of a modern thriller and the soul of a 1970s masala film, the idea behind the hybridisation had potential, but DMD falls slightly short.

Dulha Mil Gaya
The film has a predictable, even clichéd, storyline but writer-director Mudassar Aziz makes a half-decent watch out of it.

Dhoom 3
...fairly enjoyable in a knock-back-a-few-drinks-and-watch-some-cars-blow-up kinda way.

Desi Boyz
...may be I'm giving it more thought than it deserves, because frankly the film did make me laugh out loud about twice. If your expectations are that low, you may not be entirely disappointed with Desi Boyz.

Dekh Tamasha Dekh
The film is a searing satire, where fantasy and humour mingle with stark reality.

David
...given that David had the potential to be three great films in one. Instead, it ends up being only half of what it promised.

Chance Pe Dance
Watch it only if you’re a die-hard Shahid fan and if three good songs and four good scenes satisfy you as an audience.

Chala Mussaddi - Office Office
Director Rajiv Mehra and writer Ashwani Dhir are unable to take the humour quotient a notch higher in the film -- if anything, it's diluted -- and even with a playing time of around 100 minutes, the film seems too long.

Bullett Raja
The acting is inconsistent, the screenplay patchy, the background score jarring and the editing jumpy.

Break Ke Baad
The film may not be among the best love stories ever made, but it delivers two hours of decent entertainment and leaves you with a smile at the end of it.

Boss
I imagine Akshay Kumar’s film slate to be decided thus: Look for public holiday, decide release date, work backwards. Script, cast and director are incidental.

Bombay Talkies
For a change, there's a more definite story than usual but it's so convoluted and stupid, you’d have actually settled for a film with a lesser story, but which entertained more.

Bobby Jasoos
The film boasts of an interesting premise and an in-form Vidya Balan, but a weak third act plays spoilsport.

Aurangzeb
Even though slightly over-ambitious, Aurangzeb is a good start for Sabharwal- he might well be a suitable inheritor of King Chopra’s love for good ol’ drama.

Aladin
Sujoy Ghosh may have had an ambitious plot - a SFX-laden fantasy like this needs a big scale, which it has - but his treatment bores you to death.

Agneepath
How much you enjoy it, though, will be directly proportionate to how much melodrama you can withstand. Old school Hindi film lovers, however, are in for a treat.

Agent Vinod
...is brilliant in bits, and incredibly asinine in others. It’s probably the most inconsistently good film I’ve watched lately, and a massive letdown. Which is a pity. It could have made for a rare, looked-forward-to franchise.

Agent Vinod
...while Bachchan is a strong reason to watch Aarakshan, pretty much everything else around him falls apart.

3 Idiots
...has one of the most relevant issues of Indian society at its core, a heartwarming story woven around it and a narrative that takes you through the film effortlessly, leaving you happy, moved, and thoughtful in the end.
