Singham
This is supposed to be a masala film. But correct me if am wrong, the oregano must go on the pizza or are you going to snort it straight from the sachet?

Miley Naa Miley Hum
The same old characters and their not-as-attractive sidekicks, the same old rehashed events.

Shortcut Romeo
The film tries so hard to be slick, you wonder that if it was shot in a realistic manner with real characters, it'd might have worked. Instead the movie is replete with pathetic production values.

Ishk Actually
...is just about the most bizarre romantic film to come out of the Hindi film industry in the last few years. Despite working with conventional elements, the makers attempt to stride into art-house territory with its treatment.

Will You Marry Me?
If only the makers had stuck to a single genre - either romance or drama or comedy and not this foolishly ambitious all encompassing idea of Will You Marry Me?, would have been a better film to watch.

Khap
...a film that looks like the mangled matrimony of Moulin Rouge and Peepli Live. Both dreadful versions of. To think that this is what was intended from the very start: mass entertainer meets issue-based film is ludicrous.

Life Ki Toh Lag Gayi
Despite its indie-feel and a whiff of originality, Life Ki Toh Lag Gayi fails to deliver on most counts.

Ragini MMS
Props for the lead actors, who give their best, but are undone by an inept director

Aalaap
For a film that claims to "explore the different sides of Naxalism", Aalaap's politics are muddled, its objective naïve, and method laughable.

Rabba Main Kya Karoon
Why would they venture into territory that is notorious for being but quicksand for newcomers these days? Either you go megabudget or you go off the beaten path. What is this?

Bodyguard
At the time of writing, Bodyguard is on its way to shatter all box office records. Does it really matter what I think?

Gali Gali Chor Hai
...seems not only incomplete in thought but also technically: Basic scene to scene transitions missing, uneven sound.. the film leaves you deeply unsatisfied.

Jo Dooba So Paar
Undoubtedly, there is intention and heart in the making, but JDSP only shines in spurts and despite its shortness, is unable to hold one's attention for the duration.

The Attacks Of 26/11
But it is RGV who has the last laugh as he guilt-trips you into standing up through his reversescrolling end titles in memory of the lives lost in 26/11. And even though you’ve battled through this personal assault of a film, you have no option but to comply.

Jackpot
Con artists, rainy Goa, casinos, a porn star - Gustad had the nut game but his approach is cavalier. The narrative - aspiring to be sharp and stylish - ends up lackluster and disjointed with not a single moment of high energy.

Loot
...corrupted beyond recognition by some pedestrian writing entirely dependent on puns, the absolute absence of logic, and some lethargic acting.

Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum
There are sex comedies. Then there are bad sex comedies. Then there is just bad. And then finally - right at the bottom of this pile - there is KSKHH.

What should've been a sensitive, realistic tale that captured the issue it tries to highlight ends up being an invitation for a long nap.

Rajdhani Express
...may be the year’s first release but it is already in the running for the worst film of the year. Or ever.
