...isn’t perfect, but I enjoyed the film’s laidback, unhurried vibe, and it’s terrific music.

Karthik Calling Karthik
...appears confused and half-baked, and it commits that deadly unforgivable cinematic sin – it bores you!

...is ultimately tiring and heartbreaking even. You can see the talent on screen. If only there was a sharper script to harness it.

Kahaani
The film delivers on its promise, and keeps you guessing until the end. It's a delicious thriller - don't miss it.

...is an unmistakably misogynistic film, but the sad part is that it’s exactly these troubling portions that the filmmakers peddle as intense love. Even more sad is that there will be many who’ll buy into it.

The humor is hysterical but never consistent. And sadly there’s not a lot more to it.

Judwaa 2
Everything about Judwaa 2 – from the treatment to the one-liners – has a distinctly outdated feel to it. But it’s also true that some of the gags work.

Judgemental Hai Kya
While you admire the attempt at originality, you can’t help feeling frustrated at just how it all comes apart in the end.

Joker
...there is stuff here that might have made for an engaging children’s film, had Kunder not fallen prey to that oldest mistake – of treating his audience like fools.

John Day
The film then is sloppy and contrived; it's an unoriginal and uninspiring thriller that's let down by flabby writing.

...clearly doesn't bother with basic aesthetics. To be fair, the film doesn't bother with a coherent script either.

You keep waiting for something out of the ordinary to happen...anything really. But nothing does. It's as boring as watching paint dry.

Jism - 2
It takes a special kind of skill to make a film as harebrained as Jism 2. To say that its script is ridden with plot holes is an understatement; the plot itself is like a big, black hole there is no coming out of.

Frankly it delivers more than its awful trailer promised. But good luck protecting your eyes and ears from this sensory overload.

Jail
Because it's well-intentioned and settles for a hopeful message, you stay with the film despite the fact that it's never quite compelling.

It might have its heart in the right place, but the brain appears to be missing.

Jai Gangaajal
Priyanka Chopra and Prakash Jha’s performances keep you engaged and invested despite the familiar narrative, but by the end you’re overcome by the unmistakable feeling of exhaustion.

Jagga Jasoos
...is never more than the sum of its parts. The film’s heart – the moving father-son dynamic – is buried somewhere under all the manic Tintin-like adventure and the sensory overload it triggers.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan
Despite its many script problems, it's a consistently watchable film that oozes with feeling and real emotion. A fitting swan song.

Jab Harry Met Sejal
There is just not enough meat on the bones to keep you invested in the protagonists’ journey, or in their relationship, which feels clumsy and muddled but not in an interesting, honest way.

It’s well shot and skillfully executed, but the big climactic twist is entirely unconvincing.
