Soundtrack
It's endearing, playful and filled with laughter and banter. A heartwarming tale that makes you want to shed your cynicism and believe in love.

Mere Brother Ki Dulhan
The story is evident in the title, so you expect other elements in the film to keep the interest going. Sadly there's almost nothing of it.

That Girl in Yellow Boots
Anurag Kashyap narrates it slowly, bit by bit, with a lingering calm and control that makes the film unsettling and affecting.

Bodyguard
This Id, it is Salman Mubarak. However, fans be warned that Bodyguard does not offer them the familiar Sallu bhaigiri.

Aarakshan
Mainstream cinema has a way of simplifying the most complex of issues, but in that simplicity, it also manages to touch a chord, reach out and even initiate debate. Prakash Jha fails to do any of that with Aarakshan.

Chatur Singh Two Star
...Bollywood's indescribably banal take on the comic Inspector Clouseau played by Peter Sellers in Blake Edwards' Pink Panther series.

Not A Love Story
It does, seemingly, have a real story to tell and a pertinent point to make but in the end is an opportunity lost.

I Am Kalam
A straight, simple story with no great highs and lows and an easy resolution.

Singham
The tone is uniformally over-the-top—loud dialogue and acting, shrill jokes, dazzling colours, kitschy sets and costumes and stylised choreography.

Murder 2
Sex, skin and gore: unfortunately, all it eventually adds up to is quite a big bore.

Delhi Belly
It could get very discomfiting and disconcerting for some, but for this reviewer it was a merry lark of a film, the most entertaining in 2011 thus far.

Ready
There are films that're so bad they turn out to be quite good—all for poking fun at. But this one is impossibly bad.

Pyaar Ka Punchnama
The first half is quite a laugh riot, but the narrative gets too scattered in the second.

404
The movie grips you but gets plodding in the middle with its convoluted yet simplistic discussions.

Kashmakash
...the entire dubbing effort detracts from the nuances and feel, making the conversations seem affected and halting. I'd have preferred to see the original Bangla version with Hindi subtitles.

Stanley Ka Dabba
A delightful yet moving film on the trifle of an idea, but why must a film with children has to always come with a message attached?

Shagird
Nana Patekar plays to the gallery and brings a smile to the audience's faces but the movie soon turns into gimmickry than fun.

I Am
Has something that most contemporary, uber-slick Bollywood flicks lack--quietude and calm. It's a world of thoughtful pauses than a furious pace.

Game
...one of the most predictable, stupid thrillers, strewn with absurd red herrings and idiotic clues.

Turning 30
Why blatantly follow the Sex And The City template right down to the facile, inane voiceover?

No One Killed Jessica
Gupta has the onerous task of telling a story (Jessica Lall murder case) which most of his viewers would already know. Nonetheless, he manages to keep the familiar quite engaging.

No One Killed Jessica
There are some fine, stand-out moments. What detracts are some obvious filmi touches.

Band Baaja Baaraat
...what makes it special is that it feels delightfully real, is strongly rooted in contemporary Delhi middle class.

No Problem
...the characters, plot, gags, jokes, dialogues, just about nothing makes you smile, leave alone laugh. Besides, some significant scenes get uncomfortably racist and downright sexist.
