We don’t know how much this Diwali release will leave you smiling, but those dazzling lights and eye-popping colours will leave you blinking for sure.

Tamanchey
It’s not a drab premise to begin with, but the makers of this gun-toting film, Tamanchey, seem to lack the craft and the imagination to make this a pacey thriller.

Khoobsurat
...manages to entertain, and that’s largely because the rest of the cast does a fine job.

Mary Kom
...the performances from the lead pair largely fill the gaps in the story telling, but then a biopic relies heavily on the director’s craft, which in this case fails to impress.

Raja Natwarlal
A hurried writing job manages to steer the story towards a happy ending but too many twists make it a choppy, exhausting ride.

There’s no story, no script and the worst CG ever, but there may be a chuckle or two.

Amit Sahni Ki List
Director Ajay Bhuyan’s confidence oozes out of the film and it’s hard to believe he’s a first timer. He has a rock-solid control over his characters, the script and the screenplay.

Humpty Sharma Ki Dulhania
Peppered with real characters, everyday humour and a little drama, Humpty Sharma… manages to be a thoroughly enjoyable fare that leaves a sweet aftertaste.

Bobby Jasoos
After a promising start, the story unnecessarily meanders into a family drama towards the end and you are left wondering where is the detective. But she is busy wiping off her tears with her dupatta.

Ek Villain
Watch the film for Riteish and Riteish alone just to see how effortlessly he slips out of his farcical ‘Humshakals’ pinafore into the heinous hood of ‘Ek Villain’.

Humshakals
...after 159 minutes of, let’s not get into what that was, it’s the behind-the-scenes shots that actually make you laugh, if at all.

Citylights
The film is as breathless as its protagonists, but there is a certain poetry in its treatment that leaves a mark.

Hawaa Hawaai
When the story is predictable, a tight script and screenplay needs to take charge. Sadly, it doesn’t. The film’s undoing is the expectations it rides on. This one fails to be an Amole Gupte film.

Revolver Rani
...is stocked with many interesting elements, in its story, in the characterisation, in the satire. But the film fails to make its intentions clear.

Main Tera Hero
Keeping things largely distanced from logic, David clearly plays to his strengths. He knows nobody comes looking for any semblance of realism in his films. So he keeps it shamelessly mindless and there is nothing wrong with that.

Youngistaan
...thanks to a good script, well-paced screenplay and author-backed performances from appropriately cast actors, Youngistaan makes itself a watchable fare.

Bewakoofiyaan
Nupur’s direction is balanced but she lacks the support of a strong lead pair and razor sharp witty lines, which are rom-com staples.
