Mubarakan
The Bazmee-Chahal-Janjua-Chawla quartet prove very convincingly that comedies need not always be about slapstick; that there is more to comedy films than vulgar gestures and crass jokes. That clean dialogues, written sensibly, entertain and charm the movie-goers.

The Ghazi Attack
...if you love watching a war movie, that too about a mission that is mired under the weight of being 'classified' and under the sea, the truth about which can surface only exploring the depth of the sea bed, then The Ghazi Attack is a must watch film.

ABCD - Any Body Can Dance
The dance numbers are brilliantly executed and the thrill quotient is highly enhanced as you watch the movie in three dimensions.

Race 2
Tightly done action sequences, lots of glamour and one liners that cater to the classes and the masses is what makes Race 2 worth a watch.

Kuchh Bheege Alfaaz
But the cake, as well as its icing, is Onir's deft direction. The man has got what it needs to make films that are sensible, thought-provoking and entertaining at the same time.

Nasha
The ‘erotic’ love story belongs to the film’s teeny boppers, especially Sahil, whose innocence, infatuation and vulnerability keeps you glued to your seat for the two hours it lasts.

Bioscopewala
...is a sweet film to watch if you want to bring back memories of your innocent, carefree, childhood through the lens of the bioscopewala.

Shaadi Ke Side Effects
...opens on this contrived note and meanders for an over-stretched 145 minutes, full of twists and turns, that one has come to so famously associate with soaps produced by Balaji.

Guddu Ki Gun
...funny one-liners and great performances from Kunal Khemmu and Sumit Vyas.

Khajoor Pe Atke
...is a half baked satire on the selfish us that only partly exposes the darkness that lurks within every family.

Raees
...takes you for a boring ride, trying to soak the gangster's character in filmi spiel that is so typical of Bollywood's masala films when the film's creators realise that the plot is absolutely lame.

Aksar 2
...is a film that gets you primed in the first half but is a sad squib in the second.

Behen Hogi Teri
This hormone-crazy, romantic-comedy is let down by some tepid direction.

Sab Kushal Mangal
Kashyap's adept handling of the film in the first half and most of the second does not justify the manner in which the film ends.

Baa Baaa Black Sheep
With so many characters playing their parts in just over two hours, Director Vishwas Paandya gets his comic timing right, but loses out on the plot and the thrills.

31st October
While a film like 31st October does play an important role in jabbing at the Collective Conscience of a nation, Patil does no justice to the story with his lame helmsmanship and equally disappointing narrative.

Zindagi 50-50
...makes a brave but half-hearted effort to depict the dark cruelty that surrounds ordinary lives of three women. It fails miserably as sleaze -- of language as well as skin -- overtakes the proceedings.
