Sniff
With a stronger sub-plot, this would have been a sweet, wholesome affair. The film has the ability to fly, but strangely decides to walk.

...feels like a promising assignment that started out great but succumbed to a fast-approaching deadline.

Raees
The movie can feel a bit long, but if you’re going for a great Shah Rukh performance and some good ol’ popcorn-entertainment, it might just ‘raees’ to the occasion.

Raag Desh
It is overpopulated with numbers, dates and facts and suddenly introduces relatives of the protagonists who have stories of their own. It’s death by information.

Raabta
As much as you can force influences into a love story, you can’t force love itself. Neither with good-looking actors flirting with chocolates and flowers. Nor with an ambitious flashback that adds years as opposed to maturity to the plot. But Raabta relies on this kind of forced love rather than the force of love.

Phillauri
It seems as though Phillauri could have gone in a lot of directions, but it took the road usually travelled.

Ok Jaanu
If you haven’t seen the original though, you’re sure to walk out of the theatre with a warm-fuzzy feeling.

Noor
This is the great debut that has come seven years into Sonakshi’s career. And for that, you must go meet Noor at theatre.

Noor
The plot is too skimpy and with its languid pacing, the movie eventually seems a bit indulgent. The filmmaker’s exposure to slow, contemplative festival films becomes apparent. But the unassuming characters and the humour make it a delightful watch.

Meri Pyaari Bindu
...will appeal to the romantic in you, but watching the movie will be a battle between the brain and the heart. Your brain and the movie’s heart, that is.

Mantostaan
...seems like the first draft of a potentially unputdownable book. A slightly more experienced filmmaker would have done wonders with it. But in this state, it’s like a decent read with a great epilogue.

Machine
This machine has been put together without any manual and starts falling apart as soon as it is turned on.

Lipstick Under My Burkha
...may not drastically change things for women, but it’ll certainly smudge a few boundary lines.

Laali Ki Shaadi Mein Laddoo Deewana
...has to be some kind of a scientific experiment to study the frequency of fidgeting in a theatre seat. Do you want to contribute to the data?

Indu Sarkar
With Indu Sarkar, Bhandarkar drops most gimmicks and turns the page. But he is still far from Page 3.

Gurgaon
Unlike its namesake city, Gurgaon isn’t messy enough and doesn’t leave you gasping for air. But it provides a temporary taste of the dark side.

The funniest thing about this comedy is just how angry it can make you.

Force 2
It’s a decent time at the cinema for the thrill-seekers; the action won’t disappoint.

Dongri Ka Raja
To give it a little credit, the movie has a surprising feministic subtext in the love story but it gets diluted quickly. And all you’re left with are dozens and dozens of cat-and-mouse chases.

Chaar Sahibzaade
And make you stir, it will. Subpar animation just doesn’t do justice to a story of this scale. It is like watching Baahubali through a Chota Bheem filter.

Beiimaan Love
The characters are inconsistent, the lines are handpicked from a Dialogue For Dummies guide and there’s a general lack of attention to detail.

Behen Hogi Teri
Had the writers taken a dig at patriarchy and given the female characters some spunk, this would have been hilarious.

Befikre
If you care for some laughs, some YRF nostalgia and are, well, promiscuous with your choice of romcoms, you could take a chance with this one.

Bank Chor
A better plan of action and a few dry runs with the script would have ensured a product to bank on.

Badrinath Ki Dulhania
