Kamaal Dhamaal Malamaal
The film is a roller-coaster and that’s not a good thing. When you watch a roller-coaster from the ground it appears confusing, overwhelming and unnecessarily meandering and Kamaal, Dhamaal, Malaamal resembles it faithfully.

Jism - 2
Calling a film promoted as an adult film ‘juvenile’ is an oxymoron but that is the kind of wordplay Bollywood has reduced us to. Pooja Bhatt’s much-publicised for its adult content, meant only for mature audiences, seemingly ambitious film Jism-2 unfortunately brings only such adjectives to mind.

Blood Money
There is a unique amateurish-ness the entire film is drenched in. From awkward romantic moments to extremely hammy acting. From unflattering wardrobes (of everyone) to worse camera angles. From bookish, uncomfortable dialogues to the forced emotions.

Kismet Love Paisa Dilli

Rowdy Rathore
...yet another action-oriented, remade-from-a-South Indian film masala that is neither digestible nor palatable.

Life Ki Toh Lag Gayi
The film is wrapped in a realistic sensibility, set in real locations, deals with everyday dilemmas and emotions, yet, fails this realism with shallow characterisation, weak performances and in the entire point it is trying to make.

Rajdhani Express
A lack of vision and a clearly confused screenplay leaves with us an experience that simply isn’t worth it.

...the film leaves us with little to appreciate or enjoy, irrespective of what tastes in comedy one personally has.
