Dabangg 2
All said and done, the cliches work because of the phenomenon called Salman Khan. Take him away and the film will look as flat as a bottle of soda left too long in the sun.

Daas Dev
Watch the film if you want to see a different version of Devdas, as also for the sly digs that Sudhir Mishra takes at dynastic politics.

D-Day
...is one of the best hard-hitting action films to have come out of the Indian film industry.

Court
Court is another reminder that we need drastic changes in the way our judiciary functions; it raises relevant questions but doesn’t provide answers. We are left chuckling in the end but the joke, sadly, is upon us…

Coolie No.1
David Dhawan survived because he gave the audience what they wanted but he seems to have misread the changed perception here...

Commando 3
...Vidyut Jammwal executes his stunts with a superhumanly fast and furious speed in the hope that his antics will take our mind off the asinine plot. Guess what, at times at least, he succeeds...

Commando 2
Actor Deven Bhojani, known for his comic timing, impresses with his technical finesse over the action genre in his directorial debut. A little more attention to the plot would have turned it into a far better product than it is right now.

Cocktail
A well-crafted, well-acted three-way urban romance that makes you long for more.

Chhota Bheem: Kung Fu Dhamaka
One must say that the film is mounted better than the earlier full-length affairs. The artwork is bright and colourful and the 3D effects are nice as well.

Chhichhore
...is a well-acted comedy providing plenty of laughs with its one-liners and talks about an important issue as well.

Chhapaak
With another mature, cause-based film in her kitty, Meghna Gulzar has once again shown it's possible to marry art with mart.

Bypass Road
...may have aspired to soar high as a slasher flick but faulty writing kind of clips its wings...

Bullett Raja
Tigmanshu shouldn’t try to copy Prabhudeva but make straight-from-the-heart films that he’s famous for. We missed the comic punches and the black humour of his earlier efforts. He doesn’t deserve this and neither do we.

Bombairiya
...this derailed comedy carrying a serious message is worth the ride only if you don't mind meandering journeys going nowhere...

Bol Bachchan
The silly gags and jokes do make you laugh. Don’t expect a masterpiece like the original Gol Maal and you would be happy.

Blank
...given its premise, the film had the potential to be an edge-of-the-seat thriller, if only the writing and execution could have been better.

Watch the film if you aren’t averse to experiencing a modern take on a classic. You might come away surprised.

Bhoot – Part One
Applying more efforts in the writing department would have turned it into a genuinely scary movie. It's said to be the first part so let's hope director Bhanu Pratap Singh learns from the mistakes and does a better job while bringing out the instalment...

Bhavesh Joshi Superhero
...Bhavesh Joshi is Vikramaditya Motwane's braveheart attempt at creating a DC (not Marvel, as an in-joke explains, because it's darker) superhero movie. Now whether the Indian audience is ready for such stuff and whether it'll take to it is a big question Indeed...

Bharat
Somewhere along the way, the focus of the film shifts from India to Bharat the character and that's its chief flaw. You leave the theatre feeling underwhelmed...

Bhaiaji Superhittt
It’s a neo-retro product, a place-marker of sorts for the ‘anything goes’ school of filmmaking in Bollywood, which still has some dedicated followers despite changing times...

Beyond The Clouds
Be prepared to get out of your comfort zone though. It's the duty of artist to familiarise the unfamiliar and that's what Majidi has done here.

Bewakoofiyaan
The film doesn’t offer us an escape from reality nor does it warn us against the evils of consumerism. It isn’t even an out-and-out comedy.

Batti Gul Meter Chalu
...is a film which has its heart in the right place. Better editing and a shortening of length by twenty minutes would have made the film more impactful.

Bala
Ayushmann has gotten under the skin of his complex character with aplomb. The angst, the insecurity felt by him is almost palpable. Cause-based films do bring out the best in him and the question is how long his romance with such subjects would continue...

Badhaai Ho
