Zubaan
Mozez had the script, brilliant music and super, way beyond performances, but he spoils the broth by trying to add too many ingredients all in one go.

Zid
Cut the crap guys, even if this is a murder mystery, leave some room for the audience to figure out what is happening, rather than showing us something very different from what the real story is.

What about the viewers? Why do they have to be subjected to such juvenile crap that makes an ass of a classic?

Yeh Khula Aasmaan
...a wonderful product of a sensitive story, simple direction and melodious music which forms an intrinsic part of the narrative.

Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani
While at heart this is a simple love story, Ayan fails to keep it at that. And this is where YJHD falls flat even though it had the fizz.

Yeh Hai Bakrapur
...is for the intelligentsia, those who love their cinema, shaken, stirred and with salt at the rim!

Yamla Pagla Deewana 2
Don't go looking for a genius in the script, there is none, like in most of the recent blockbusters that have rewritten box-office figures. This one too, I believe, will have the cash registers jingling.

Ya Rab
The entire screenplay defies logic. I can understand if this has happened in a blockbuster film with the big stars where they expect you to keep your brains behind. But not in Ya Rab where the intention is to educate with a calming message rather than entertain.

Ya Rab
...an interesting movie with an intelligent, intense and important message but poor presentation.

X: Past is Present
...this movie is like a biryani prepared by 11 cooks. You can imagine the taste if one cook has forgotten to inform the other whether he has added salt!

Will You Marry Me?
The movie is enjoyable with a neat twist at the end. But had the editors made use of their scissors, this could have been a snazzier film.

Will You Marry Me?
For the first time in the year, there was genuine laughter from the audience; it was more for the indigenous way you presented it than for the actual comedy. The scenes were craftily built up on a plot that is a riot.

Will You Marry Me?
...is one film you have to watch. For its simplicity. For its performances. And for its direction. It has content. It entertains. It educates.

Welcome Back
As an audience, you marvel at the sheer audacity of this film to rope in some finest actors of our country and give them a scriptless stage.

Wazir
Bejoy Nambiar is back to resurrect his image after David, exactly two years later. He wipes the slate clean and rolls the dice out for Wazir, to begin the New Year with a bang for Bollywood.

War Chhod Na Yaar
It is not exceptional cinema but just for the concept and the funny take on a serious issue, I rate it three stars.

Waiting
There is no mistaking her (Anu Menon) genius as she guides every delicate scene with the hand of maturity.

On the whole though, this is a well-packaged a flick. A 'must-watch' for action junkies.

What really gets to you is the background score that goes boom, boom, boom, every time there is an action scene in the jungle, some jungle scenes, or scenes where not much is happening. RGV tries to hit out at you, any which way.

Veer
Salman has taken a gamble, it's now left to be seen how the audience reacts to this fight to get the British out of India. Somehow, I get this feeling that the dice is loaded in favour of Veer Salman!

Valentine's Night
The idea was novel, but executing it into-a full-fledged movie is another story altogether.

Uvaa
If only director Jasbir Bhatti had dwelt on the subject rather than concentrating on silly school scenes and even sillier teachers, we would have had a hard-hitting film on our hands.

Ungli
D'Silva has taken dollops of cinematic liberties and one can even see the residue of Rang De Basanti (which he co-wrote) but the movie does connect. And that is what matters.
