Plodding on for what seems like eternity, this is an earnest but exhausting film.

What could've been a sweet, simple love story turns into a confused film that never justifies its spirited title.

What's missing from 'Ra.One' is a sure-footed director's touch. Anubhav Sinha fails to bring all the elements together, and while this superhero film has plenty sound and fury, it's sorely lacking slickness.

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

Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge
Like the demographic it represents, the film makes for good company, and isn't meant to be taken too seriously. An enjoyable one-time watch.

Somewhere in this tiring film is a promising idea that hasn't been fully exploited.

Love Breakups Zindagi
It's a tiring retread of a once popular formula that's wearing thin now.

Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster
...it's inspired by a classic, but let down by its own triteness. Not a perfect film, but one that has its moments.

Force
As you leave the hall exhausted from the sheer length of this misguided enterprise, you cannot help but note that despite its many flaws, this is a noble failure. The film doesn't work, but not for lack of trying.

Mere Brother Ki Dulhan
The film doesn't always work because it relies too heavily on silly stereotypes and cliches, and because you can see exactly where it's going from the moment you settle into your seat.

Mere Brother Ki Dulhan
No question it's going to make a lot of money at the box-office, but you have to be a die-hard fan to forgive this film its many flaws.

That Girl in Yellow Boots
Look beyond its kitchen-sink drama treatment, and you'll notice it's a brave film with an urgent message at its heart.

Not A Love Story
...isn't an unwatchable film, but how many times can you watch bad guys being whipped with a belt? Or heads being pummeled by a bare fist? There is such a thing as overkill, after all.

Not A Love Story
It proves that Zoya Akhtar has a unique, compelling voice and unlike many of her contemporaries, she actually respects that a cinema audience can be both intelligent and mature.

Not A Love Story
It isn't half bad, but the party pooper here is a script that has no direction home.

It's an inoffensive but lazy film that barely scratches the surface of this big, bright shining star.

Uninhibited and naughty, 'Delhi Belly' is an enjoyable comedy that has enough frenzied moments to keep you in your seats.

Bbuddah...Hoga Terra Baap
Aside from a few laughs post-intermission, this film is a crashing bore.
