  • Pihu

    This unusual thriller has all the elements you'd expect from a film that can attain cult status. In all fairness, the story does throw up a few nail-biting moments, too. But the inconsistent writing and direction by Vinod Kapri robs the movie of its desired impact.

  • Jack And Dil

    Unless these three otherwise bearably good artistes have big debts to clear, I don’t see a reason as to why anyone in their right minds would say yes to a chaotic rom-com like ‘Jack & Dil’.

  • FryDay

    The script of ‘FryDay’ drags on for a little too long and the humour showcased in the film, isn’t even at par with what the trailer promised to deliver.

  • Pakhi

    Goes without saying that this social drama was made with a noble intent, but director Sachin Gupta could have turned it into a hard-hitting film on this glaring issue had it not been for those novices of actors and a loosely written script.

  • Nawabzaade

    The writing is cliché and seems hastily assembled. Jayesh Pradhan has tried to pull off another bromance this year with ‘Nawabzaade’ but his take on the subject is so ho-hum that it goes haywire right from the word go.

  • The Past

    ...is clichéd and offers nothing that fans of the genre haven’t seen a million times before. This dreary Bollywood horror movie does not merit any sort of attention.

  • Indu Sarkar

    If you are not a hyper-nationalist or an ardent fan of pressure groups, if you cannot tolerate apartheid in the name of politics, regardless of which party you support, this Madhur Bhandarkar scrapbook straight from the 1970s is for you.

  • Anaarkali Of Aarah

    The film does have its moments of sheer brilliance, specially in the humour department. But its adamancy with the narrative technique and unnecessary inclusion of minutest of details spoils the game.
