Luv Ka The End
This is just an XL sheet movie from a supposed docket that defines youth as some condescending, amorphous term from marketing alone. The filmmakers are desperately trying to look in from the distant outside.

Love Sex Aur Dhokha
It’s a sort of flick you ideally discover without burdens of expectation: a caveat you must bear in mind, in case you were planning on rushing off to cinemas right away. Where any Bollywood movie without a gyrating, lip-synching hero perceives itself as ‘different’, this one, from an audience’s point of view, is truly an experiment.

Don't expect too much from this, and I think you'll do just fine.

Clearly, someone's let open a flick that must have been rightly, safely lying in the cans for years.

Lipstick Under My Burkha
...timed to perfection, mirroring the world we live in, is narrating a story about a subaltern, small-town Indian society at the edge of a revolution.

Picture looks real. Posturing is correct. Accents may be inconsistent, dramebaazi's full-on.

It's not easy to make sense of Kashmir. It's harder still then to make sense of this film.

Lafangey Parindey
Such scatter-brained, mish-mash of a movie is only possible when the makers' eyeballs are trained at some sucker or the other the cinema's intended for, and not the soul of even a semblance of a script.

Ladies VS Ricky Bahl
At worst, the film remains then a yawn inducing, half explained romance; at best, it's an effortless watch all the way.

...there are way too many scenes to the point that it begins to feel like a stretch, and you merely hope for the movie to get to the point.

Kya Yahi Sach Hai
Assemblage of some of the world’s worst over-actors will worry you, editing’s patchy, sound’s screwed up, art-work's third rate, cinematography’s amateurish. Some of the most crucial scenes are shot before a chroma screen. The research and script are solid still. This is sad.

Kurbaan
What you may brave through then is a flick neither real or serious enough to be a meditation on global terror, nor sweetly suspended and adequately brain-dead to be Die Hard. It’s hard to be both. The hardship shows.

Kucch Luv Jaisaa
The relationship between the housewife and the wanted hoodlum offers neither dread nor drama. It remains flat throughout.

Mental exhaustion is too minor a price to pay for this cutesy honesty. Come on, give it a shot. I dare you.

Kites
It’s a passionately romantic pic, or at least hyped as one in ways that few films can live up to. The expression of that intense love, its most important element, is often lost in translation - what many might rightly perceive as lack of chemistry between the leading pair.

Kesari
Maybe there's more to the battle. Or maybe this in-your-face, goose-bumpy ride—heartwarming, because its history; and hysterical, because it's that kinda movie—is just the best one can do. Well, either way, this works alright.

Kedarnath
Practically all top stars from the '90s have at some point owed their stardom to a similar super-hit. Maybe that's the intention here. Wonder if this stuff still works in the front benches; forget the few highfalutin film-buffs.

Something about this film tells me it's possibly much better written than it's turned out...

Karthik Calling Karthik
As an audience, you’re not always two steps behind the script either. But that doesn’t take away from how the film holds you, almost all the way. This isn't easy. I suspect you’re not going to love the sound of a ringing landline for a while. I hope you don’t question the workings of your brain as much.

Kadvi Hawa
But beyond the obvious sell that combines well with original intent, this is, on the face of it, a uniformly dark, grim, thoroughly meditative film on farmers' suicides...

Kaalakaandi
Is it as good as Delhi Belly? As a script? Possibly. As a film, I felt it lacks rhythm, with too much being force-fed to suit the timeline of one never-ending night in Bombay, even if that's the genre. The end might make you go, 'Eh?' But through it all, you're more likely to go, 'Hah!' So nah, I'm not complaining at all.

... if you were to keep your eyes glued to the screen and follow the blind man's graphite walking stick right down to the picture's climax, I'm fairly certain you won't be disappointed. Yeah, it is, for the most part, kaabil-e-tareef!

Judgemental Hai Kya
With the script firmly in place, this picture, competently directed by Bollywood debutant Prakash Kovelamudi, immaculately plays with form (sharp editing, art-direction, cinematography)--going wild at times, but never so haywire that it's impossible to self-contain, at any point. Which is a huge relief.

A movie can either make sense or money. So some filmmakers strongly suspect. Why did we expect anything better here? We always do.
