Race 3
...I got in this family saga of globalised NRI goons is some stale taste of sheer inanity and randomness.

Heroine
As Madhur Bhandarkar repeats his template yet again, one is tempted to rehash one’s previous reviews.

Action Jackson
Cartoonish characters, mindless comedy...a blatantly chauvinistic wannabe blockbuster.

Chalk N Duster
Nothing irritates more than sanctimony and this film is so packed with piety that it looks set to get tax exemption and mandatory school screenings to boot.

Blood Money
Feels like a rerun of Vishesh Films’ Jannat. Much too insipid. Cliches abound.

What does one say of a comedy where you can laugh at precisely one moment?

A Flying Jatt
A clunky script, comic book flat characters and a wafer-thin plot are propped up by needless song-n-dance routines, juvenile SFX and innumerable fights and confrontations.

Commando 2
...is an action film that decides to wear another mask; of topicality, social consciousness and patriotism, all for the heck of it. In the process the film loses its own identity entirely.

Poster Boys
Not offensive so much as infantile. And every single character is a cartoon.

...would have worked better had it been shorter, sharper with a strong story to tell. If only this film and its maker knew when and where to stop.

Prakash Electronic
Things happen rather randomly on screen—the twists, turns, misunderstandings and reconciliations—and somehow something like a film gets cobbled together.

Halkaa
The film’s call against open defecation is gratuitous and in trying to portray class divides ends up widening it.

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

Everything about it is lacklustre—right from the script, direction and acting.

Teraa Surroor
...no compelling cinema here, just an out and out guilty pleasure that requires a huge suspension of disbelief to go with the flow.

Pagalpanti
...this could have become a fairly decent satire. But that’s like asking for the moon and wishing Anees Bazmee was Kundan Shah.

Jab Harry Met Sejal
...marks a thumping return to love at its most banal, hackneyed and exasperating. There is not much in the silly situations and trite conversations to get you invested or interested in the lovers.

Vodka Diaries
In an effort to be cool and quirky the film sinks into the shabby and the amateurish. The twists and turns of the plot are totally random, thrown in for the heck of it.
