Ghost
But the test of a comedy lies in its ability to make the viewers laugh. Khichdi doesn't pass this test with flying colours.

Thank You
Is this a case of playing safe for the director who has recently burned his hands at the box office or is it a drought of story ideas that seems to be Bollywood's biggest scourge?

De Dana Dan
...a film that begins soundly and then slips into cuckoo land, only because the primary characters and their story is side-tracked for a compendium of tertiary tales.

...all we are left with are a few sequences of fun, followed by long-drawn drama.

...there's nothing left to hold your attention in this prolonged misadventure that loses a lot due to a tardy screenplay, a headless script and an old-fashioned direction.

Phoonk 2
...just another run-of-the-mill horror film and doesn't do anything to lift the genre to another level altogether.

...could actually have been a great comeback from the director who gave contemporary cinema one of its smartest comedies: Bheja Fry.

...a half-blown venture where there are too many theatrics and too many loosely edited scenes to allow the film to unfold as an uninterrupted laugh riot.

Where's the chemistry? Where's the story? And where's the twist in the tale? Kites could have been that cross-over film that Bollywood has been dreaming about since long. Sadly, it flounders even before it can take off and soar....

My Friend Pinto
The film takes too long to get on course and is cluttered with loose, untidy bits that need to be edited out.

...has colour, humour, pace but nothing does seem to fall in place in terms of plot and character connect.

...a bit of subtlety and a more artistic vision would have gone a long way in creating a strong social document on screen.

Love U...Mr. Kalakaar!
...another effort on the part of Rajshri Inc to create a sweet, happy, family film which focuses on the fluorescent side of romance alone.

Always Kabhi Kabhi
It's all foregone and predictable apart from being inordinately long. School is agony; school is ecstasy. Always Kabhi Kabhi captures neither and treads the staid middle ground.

Action Replayy
...the retro idiom works...But only till a point. The problem with Action Replayy is the going-nowhere humour track.

Kya Yahi Sach Hai
Intermittently interesting, Utt Pataang has a problem of plenty. You've seen this so many times in experimental gangster noir.

Kya Yahi Sach Hai
The film had promise and does have a few funny sequences. But by and large, it's a case of promises unfulfilled.

The film works only in fits and starts. Shreyas does try hard to keep the momentum going, but the campy special effects leave a lot to be desired.

I Am Singh
Meant as a ready reckoner on Sikhism, the film should have had a larger appeal. Unfortunately it will find its target audience, mostly in its own community.

A bit of chopping, sifting and editing would have worked wonders for the film.

Kucch Luv Jaisaa
It's a Wonderful Afterlife could have...would have...should have...but all it does is end up as average fare: Indian curry yes, yet minus the tangy flavour.
