Tubelight
This is a sweet little film alright, but the emotional inconsistencies just don’t iron out. It’s a classic case of what could've been a great film, settles for much less.

Teen Thay Bhai
It may not go down well with those who crave sophistication and élan, but if madcap movies are you’re thing this is almost as fun as The Hangover.

Raees
...serves up every thrill and spill you’d expect from a commercial masala movie. While the story and ideas aren’t all new or refreshing, Raees’ big play comes from its nostalgic treatment.

Rockstar
Rockstar is not a very pleasing film. It's not easy to decipher, digest and understand. It has its own language. A language of fun, craziness, madness, pain and love. But in its own unpolished way, the film speaks of a poetic yet tragic romance.

Parched
...is a film where women rise above the exploitation and the misogyny to live life on their own terms. The erotic nature of their conversations and their ability to retain their spirit through all adversity makes this film a true blue winner.

Shamitabh
...a film unlike any other. Its themes are dark and deep. Its observations are candid and funny. Like any good film, its a mixture of art and mart.

Right Yaaa Wrong
If you can look past a few out-of-focus shots, shoddy love making scenes and lack of foot-tapping music, this one’s actually got the brain to impress the average commercial film audience.

Ankhon Dekhi
This might not be your average entertainer. You won’t be rolling in the aisles on the jokes. You won’t be clapping for the heroics. But you will feel a strange sense of content after watching this mature film.

Bobby Jasoos
End of the day, Bobby Jasoos is fun-filled entertainment. It suffers a bit with shoddy execution and writing. But it’s nothing an expert like Vidya can’t handle.

Kuchh Bheege Alfaaz
Despite the slow build-up, it manages to entertain with ease. It’s the perfect combination of fluff and an old school love saga.

Bombay Velvet
The romantic formula might’ve let it down, but the real story of this film is how well it’s conceived and presented. A certified visual delight.

Bhoothnath Returns
Watch Bhoothnath Returns for the masterful performances by Parth, Boman Irani and Amitabh Bachchan. Mr Bachchan particularly shows you why he is still leagues ahead of any contemporary star, actor or performer.

Gori Tere Pyaar Mein
You might even be cheeky and say this movie is a frivolous little romance with the idea of filmmaking. But the bottom line is that it works. And you don't need reasons to smile.

Ittefaq
...is a solid modern whodunit. It looks as slick as any Hollywood production. Even with its mistakes, the crime mystery manages to impress with its logical and clinical writing.
