Jal
...would have made a much more powerful literary piece than it makes a film. As a story on celluloid, it is simply a dead bore.

Main Tera Hero
...a total seeti-maar, paisa vasool film and refreshingly unpretentious.

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

Lakshmi
The worst part of Lakshmi is that it isn’t just a story. When you come out of it, you will forever be plagued by the knowledge that evil does exist in this world and we, as a society, are only enabling it.

Darr @The Mall
...might be an absolute failure in the horror genre but as a revenge drama, it is refreshingly simple and does manage to pull a few heartstrings at the end of the day.

Heartless
Despite being well shot and fairly well edited, this film has nothing of value to offer.

Karle Pyaar Karle
Logic gets suspended here as easily as gravity in space and no one has any motivations for their actions. All's well that ends well, and at least this one ends. Period.

...the film has achingly pleasurable performances from the cast and the brilliant sound design.

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

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.

Jackpot
Only go for Jackpot if you sat right until the end of the titles of Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag and yelled encore.

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.

Bullett Raja
...is rife with predictable scenes, bad editing and a lack of control over the script, which spirals into an unending loop of absurdity.

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.

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.

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.

Horror Story
...if you like being horrified at things such as lack of logic or Bollywood films 'paying tribute' to their Hollywood counterparts, Horror Story is for you.

D-Day
...is what people like me wait Friday after Friday for. It does what it needs to and does not preach but leaves an impact strong enough to make you ask questions. It manages to bring out patriotism in you without the theatrics.
