Bangistan
Is Bangistan a comedy? I wish it was! I was hoping it was. I read it was. Did the director even realize that he shifted focus and was just meandering through in the first half? I hope so.

Masaan
Towering performances for a towering script! Masaan is all this and much more. Masaan provokes you, makes you think, and takes you on life's journey.

I Love NY
I loved I Love NY. You may too. Give it a try. This is Sunny Paaji at his vintage best. Kangana, ofcourse is now in a league of her own.

Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho
If you are looking for something diverse from Bollywood and are willing to brave the flaws, then this certainly is if for you.

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.

ABCD - Any Body Can Dance - 2
Here we have a lame story which hobbles to steady itself in the first 30 minutes. When it does, it hobbles again before you are almost willing the film to come to an end.

Dil Dhadakne Do
Every character on board has his or her life entwined with the other and the manner in which the plot moves forward on the high seas is stuff of which good films are made of.

Ishqedarriyaan
If there was a little urgency in getting into the heart of the matter, Ishqedarriyaan could have been different. Director V V Sharma goes round and round and thus loses the plot.

Tanu Weds Manu Returns
Kudos to the director for helming such a close-to-reality situation with dollops of humour and charting the course of each and every character with a passion that goes beyond the art of good film-making.

Bombay Velvet
If you want to watch Bombay in its pristine glory of the past, Bombay Velvet is a must watch. However, if content is what you are looking for, stay away!

Sabki Bajegi Band
Anirudh Chawla has a very novel thought about hypocrisy in society but the manner in which he tries to send across his message is not so novel, and is also 'over-the-top preachy'.

Jai Ho! Democracy
...was meant to show the farcical side of politics. It turns out being a farce!

Mr. X
Bhatt movies have that same signature tune and similar story-lines (non-existent). Mr. X is no different. He too is non-existent.

Margarita With A Straw
Shonali Bose packs too many emotions into this movie, some unwarranted, which takes away any emotions one might have had as the movie began.

Ek Paheli Leela
The film is shot on a grand scale but the connecting links to the past 300 years are not that convincing. The story could have been better entwined leaving the viewer in a state of suspense.

Dharam Sankat Mein
If you have not had enough of PK and OMG, venture out. If you have seen even the first take on this subject, OMG, you have seen it all.

Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!
...a fine visual treat with streaks of genius. But what goes against this movie is that it lacks soul, and it drags for over two-and-a-half hours.

Hunterrr
...thanks to Gulshan Devaiah and his engrossing, entertaining, energetic, illuminating act as the sex-starved Mandar Ponkshe, Hunterrr becomes a prized catch.

Dozakh
...smartly treads the fine line between the intolerance of religion. The turmoil the child goes through and the stark truth his staunch Muslim father is made to face at a crucial juncture is what elevates this film to a commendable level.
