Ekk Deewana Tha
Even if you dont mind the lack of detailing, you cant avoid the potholes in the script. As we wait for Jessie to make up her mind, the film loses its coherence.

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.

Jodi Breakers
One doesn't know about the relationships it talks about, the film is dysfunctional for sure.

Ungli
A sloppy display of corporate social responsibility by a production house that usually indulges in fluff.

Zanjeer
An unwarranted remake, this time it is the turn of the audience to turn angry!

Creature
...a kind of kindergarten for the seekers of chills and frills that feeds on the appetite of the galleries for shock and sleaze.

Jai Ho! Democracy
The intentions are right and the situations spot on but apart from a few stinging comments on the polity, it fails to grow into a cogent commentary on the state of affairs.

John Day
Logic, pace and tautness are the main ingredients of a thriller and Solomon’s work disappoints on all the three counts.

Gabbar Is Back
It has come at a time when the remake business has touched a plateau. Had it come in its infancy, Gabbar would not have sounded like babble.

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.

Grand Masti
...nothing more than cheap revelry that can be watched only for some corny jokes.

Kuch Kuch Locha Hai
Neither adult nor comic, it is a puerile take on a common man’s fantasy to have a film star in his life.

Desi Kattey
A hollow attempt to mash-up crime and sports, Desi Kattey misses the target by a margin.

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

Shortcut Romeo
In an effort to make it look cool, it is not just the performances, even the cinematography and action look put on and jerky.

Hate Story 2
It is a predictable story that pans out in a predictable fashion with the galleries treated to tastefully shot skin show.

Barkhaa
Overwrought and laboured, the idea to reignite a good old flame fails lacks both passion and pain.

Mahabharat
Mahabharat deserves a liberal reading but apart from Karna’s episode Amaan has remained true to the traditional rendering of the epic and there is hardly any effort to delve into the moral dilemmas of the characters.

Mr Joe B. Carvalho
It is supposed to be a satire; it is supposed to be a theatre of the absurd but unfortunately all that remains an idea on paper. On screen it is relentless torture.

Sanjay deserves a better image-boost and we need a break from the clones of Dabangg.

Machhli Jal Ki Rani Hai
A horror film that unravels like a daily soap, director Debaloy Dey’s attempt at spooking you out goes in vain.

Ek Paheli Leela
Bobby Khan has conjured up a long music video album with a story line whose depth fails to compete against Sunny’s cleavage.
