Raaz Reboot
If only you couldn't have figured out whodunnit by mid-point, you'd have been horrified better

Raavan
It's so confusing when seriousness is dealt with song and dance. Wish the film was advertised as modern Ram Leela performed in a tribal theater. That expectation would have prepped me to deal with the over-dramatization a lot better.

Raat Gayi Baat Gayi
...there is a nice build-up. But unfortunately it's towards an unworthy climax. So much so that everything thus far seems in vain.

Raajneeti
A could-have-been, wanna-be political thriller lacks the sizzle and cursorily glances over the sleaze. And yet, despite the dull lines, modern Mahabharat is a tale worth watching.

Raag Desh
A war movie, a relatively lesser known independence story, a court room drama. An intense story yet not an 100% immersive experience.

Ra.One
...has some really "Whoa! Cool" action sequences. Yeah, yeah even if you are exposed to "Hollywood" action. Now if only, the story had a nail-biting edge to it...

R... Rajkumar
Violence for the sake of violence. Romance for the sake of violence. Comedy thrown in. Wannabe masala.

Qarib Qarib Singlle
A mature romance where people are not really trying to change each other. Keeps the smile on too. But, the pace is almost soporific and has potential to disconnect you from the story.

Gets marks just for picking up a different issue and retains them by not falling prey to all possible clichés.

Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2
...is more or less what you expect, more of the same with a slightly better hand at direction. Storywise though if you enjoyed the first installment, you would like this one too.

Pyaar Ka Punchnama
She's a user, he's a loser. In each of the three couples. Thank goodness for some decent lines and situations that make it a decent date film.

Pyaar Impossible
Though they had enough maturity to touch upon some very valid issues revolving around love, it's a shame that it translates into a highly typical screenplay with the lousiest dialogues there could be!

The question shouldn't be, "Is it good or not?" it should be, "How bad is it?" Action we saw in yesteryears, dialogue we have been listening to from earlier than that. The lameness of a story and its execution, of course, has been taken to a new level.

Prem Ratan Dhan Payo
The writing is too conscious of itself too – trying too hard to be a Barjatya-Salman film that has to teach you a thing or two about family values.

Policegiri
...but for the saving grace in terms Prakash Raj's performance and a few lines, Policegiri has barely anything going for it.

PK
Yet again, Rajkumar Hirani blends comedy with a social message and gets a point across. Even if the comedy doesn't work all that well, it is a film worth a watch for sure.

You forget you are watching a film for a lot of the 2+ hours. Doesn't wrench your heart or gut, but works on the mind. Hopefully.

Pihu
While you are in awe with how they managed to make a 2-year old single-handedly hold our interest through the film, Pihu is still a 90-minute long Public Service Announcement for making houses child proof.

Photograph
Made specifically for people who can enjoy a film for its mood. A plain and mundane one, in this case. Like most days in life. The plainness that started out as charming becomes lifeless by the end.

Phoonk 2
Not that it was very difficult to make anything better than the first in this series, yet, this one came as a pleasant shock.

Phillauri
Some films mesmerize because they linger lyrically, beautifully. Others l-l-l-i-i-i-i-n-n-g-e-r in a way you wish it stops before you can say asap. Unfortunately, Phillauri is the latter.

It's taxing when everything you have to say about a film is bad. It's not scary, it's not thrilling. It beats its own purpose and is just bad.

Phata Poster Nikhla Hero
Pretty much what you'd expect - silly and more silly which is funny occasionally, story that has no idea when to stop, and so on.
