Jeena Isi Ka Naam Hai
After 170 minutes, when you wonder about the point of it all, there is a funeral and the movie ends.

Khajoor Pe Atke
There's nothing subtle about this film. There's no dark comedy here. There's only loud acting, ghastly music and comic sounds that deafen you and blind you to the really, really funny bits in the film.

31st October
...when a film attempts to dramatise the events in an amateurish way, the heart-wrenching awfulness of those events is lost. The audience feels no empathy in the fake emotions and the graphic blood and gore fails too.

Teraa Surroor
Everything happens so slowly, you want to take the hero's gun (he's just posing with it!) and shoot yourself with it, or at least someone in the movie just to get a reaction from them.

Yamla Pagla Deewana Phir Se
The film is so loud, and so obvious, you will need earplugs as well as sunglasses.

De Dana Dan
Somewhere in the middle of the mindless antics of this loud and slap-happy ensemble cast, Priyadarshan hammers the final nail in the coffin of all stories that could be called comedy.

Fukrey Returns
This film alas has none of the original humor, the jokes seem forced and out of really bad whatsapp forwards, the characters have no redeeming qualities and despite a bigger budget the story seems forced.

Ek Tera Saath
The idea is great, but the execution fails so miserably, that you begin to laugh at the over the top acting by the lead characters...

Babumoshai Bandookbaaz
...has a fine story, but is executed with so much sleaze that you just come away wondering why a fine actor like Nawazuddin Siddiqui needs to stoop so low.

It's such a waste to see someone who has a unique sound fall prey to ambition and join the wannabe actor brigade.

Raaz Reboot
...mangalsutra beads are broken act, the ghosts that possess bodies are still levitating and contorting bodies, and creaking doors and yanking screaming women under the bed... Reboot means Rehash.

LoveYatri
The film is a mashup of Namaste London and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam but has none of the chemistry, the joy or the spontaneity. It is a manufactured paint by numbers, charmless love story.

Shorgul
Can you be so bored that you could watch cliches in character and dialog? Then this movie might satisfy you and give you the despair you are craving for.

Blue Mountains
...shows us everything that is wrong with making movies for young adults. There is no finesse in handling the subject and poor research shows up like a glaring sore thumb on the screen.

...executed so laughably, so over the the top that there's unintentional laughter instead of tension.

Half Girlfriend
Through this half baked attempt at romance, social service, drunkenness you realise that Half Girlfriend is an asinine attempt at movie making...

Nanu Ki Jaanu
Let's just dump this film into the vault of ignominy where it belongs after asking this question, 'Why Abhay Deol, why?'

The director is conspicuous with his absence. Because the movie gets more and more tedious. Not one character grows in any sort of arc. Bhai remains dumb, the little boy adorable...

Machine
The director duo Abbas-Mustan launch Mustafa (son of Abbas) with this romance cum murder thriller cum demented psychological drama. They try so hard to offer as many hairpin bends as they possibly can add, but the young actors in this race are so callow, their romance is unintentionally hilarious.

...could have been darkly comedic. Alas, it drowns in its supposed 'sense of humor'. This attempt at dark comedy is a big disappointment.

Raabta
...a brainless, pointless romance with pretenses of rebirth, set in a foreign country. Utterly devoid of chemistry, the lead pair talks inanities until you fall asleep.

Chef
...Saif Ali Khan just doesn't convince us that he loves cooking, or his food truck team care about anything. The whole effort is unappetising.

Paltan
This is a mockery of the lives of soldiers who are shown to be foolhardy, stupid and crying at the drop of a hat. The dialogues are so trite they have been taken off quote sites. All in all a waste of time.
