Joker
The only sentiment I was left with at the end of the film was, “Joker ko cinema se nikaalkar taash ki gaddi pe daalo".

Jannat 2
The film has the right ingredients in the wrong proportions. As it stands, you’ll have to depend on hecklers for entertainment.

I Am Singh
This would only work as a primary school Annual Day play, ideally staged for a geriatric audience.

Ekk Deewana Tha
There are way too many twists in the film-within-a-film-within-a-film narrative to make for a coherent watch.

Bol Bachchan
...a tortuous trail of hamming, dancing, swearing, scratching and... of course, punning.

Student Of The Year
What I dislike most about 'Student of the Year' - and there are many things I dislike – is that it endorses teens behaving like they’re in their twenties.

Kahaani
The only thing worse than the storyline of this film is the pop version of 'Ekla Cholo Re', which is part of its soundtrack.

Don 2
For all the sketchily etched sub-plots, and the contorted trails of the fabric of the story, it’s threadbare enough to be entirely banal.

Heroine
...the most damning aspect of the film is that neither Kareena Kapoor’s character nor her portrayal of it elicits our empathy.

Ghanchakkar
A laboured comedy and lukewarm thriller come together to make an irritating two hours.

London Paris New York
As the film collapses into an end as unimaginative as its title, try as one might to empathies with Nikhil Chopra, one ends up sympathizing with Ali Zafar.

D-Day
If you do like to watch the sort of films where Bollywood solves all India’s problems, you will like D-Day.

Cocktail
It hurtles along the same old path most of its breed do. And somehow, a film that’s sidestepped melodrama for the first hour or so, turns maudlin.

Jism - 2
If you went in prepared for a ham fest garnished with soft porn, you might actually enjoy this movie.

Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani
Though beautifully picturised and entertaining enough, this film is old wine in a new bottle.

Raanjhanaa
...is entertaining enough at times, in the end, it feels - as a friend said - "like 7G Rainbow Colony and Kaadhal Kondein dubbed in Hindi".

Maximum
...has all the right ingredients, but with several layers of extra garnish, it tastes wrong.

Aiyyaa
While it isn’t so much a fresh idea as an idea making a comeback, it could have been well-executed if Meenakshi’s character had been fleshed out to some extent.

Bhaag Milkha Bhaag
The film is more tribute than tale, and its gorgeous locales, skilled cinematography and uplifting music cannot prop up its flimsy plot.

Blood Money
It’s one of those films which sucks when you see the end coming, and entertains when you don’t.

Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola
...Bhardwaj tells the story in a style that comes close to burlesque – wacky, entertaining, and over-the-top. However, something is missing – the storytelling doesn’t bolster the concerns in the movie the way it should, and it goes downhill after the interval.

Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola
...isn’t the most original zombie film made, but it is funny enough to make a light weekend watch.

Ladies VS Ricky Bahl
The ending of a movie like this has to choose between corny and ironic. In Ricky Bahl, it's salvaged from falling flat by sparkling dialogues and good acting.

Chakravyuh
While the film does indulge itself in melodrama, it chooses to place the onus on the actors, who turn in arguably career-best performances.

Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana
