Youngistaan
...makes claims like Modi, implements policies like Rahul and has a persistent cough like Kejriwal, and I certainly wouldn’t vote for it.

Yeh Hai Bakrapur
Despite all of this and some praiseworthy performances by the entire cast -- Yeh Hai Bakrapur fails to live up to its early promise due to lacklustre direction.

Yaariyan
...may be targeted at a young audience but every single teenager who chooses to watch it will be insulting their own intelligence.

The Perfect Girl
...has caused a crater to form on my desk because I keep hitting my head against it as I recount this less than perfect slow poison of a film to you.

Tamanchey
No amount of catchy soundtrack, meticulous set design, or slick editing can save the film from the lofty, misplaced ambitions of the people entrusted with guiding it.

Surkhaab
...lacks the strength to go all the way either to become a masala thriller or to blossom into an insightful take on the exploitation of immigrants. Because it wants to do both, it ends up doing neither.

Sulemani Keeda
Finally an unpretentious indie, Sulemani Keeda, simply put, is by the filmis, of the filmis, and for everyone.

Sooper Se Ooper
Its beautiful how something so simple, and for a change, something so positive can turn out to be a no-brainer comedy -- as opposed to the crass, racist, misogynistic and homophobic tone found in the usual fare that appears Friday after Friday in the name of entertainment.

Sixteen
...is clearly an adult perspective masquerading as a teenage perspective on the lives of teenagers who are trying to be adults.

Singh Saab The Great
Although I appreciate that the makers of Singh Saab the Great tried to make a socially conscious and relevant film, they got pulled into giving a sermon instead.

Shortcut Romeo
...makes up for loose ends and bizarre twists in the plot by means of sheer masala power.

Samrat & Co.
...might have a good enough screenplay burried somewhere beneath all the trash but none of it shows in the execution.

Roar: Tigers Of The Sundarbans
Roar's strengths lie in the novelty of the concept and the judicious use of CGI. Sure, the special effects could have been better but compared to standards set by its contemporaries, Roar doesn't far badly.

Revolver Rani
...is perfect on paper but if it really wanted to generate that spark, it should have probably taken the character-centric route.

R... Rajkumar
The film begins pretty well and Shahid entertains in bits but there's only so much he can do to make this kind of stuff work.

Purani Jeans
Unabashedly sexist, regressive, poorly researched and lacking the punch a college romance film is supposed to pack...

Mr Joe B. Carvalho
Joe B Carvalho is that annoying friend who won't stop forcing those unbearable PJs on you as you try to laugh politely while one eye seeks an emergency exit.

Mickey Virus
...is based on an interesting idea, the plot is good and the film is relevant at a time when cyber crime is increasing. However, with weak direction, even the best of stories cannot be told well.

Margarita With A Straw
...a refreshingly, brutally honest film which ends up making the tiny mistake of adding an emotional, clichéd ending.

Main Tera Hero
