Bumm Bumm Bole
...fails entirely because it's hard to connect with the kids and their pain.

LoveYatri
The blame for LoveYatri rests not with these young actors, but with its makers for setting them up to fail. Frankly even Salman Khan would have trouble making this script work today.

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

Love Aaj Kal
...is pretty awful and dreadfully boring. It’s also overlong and hammy. The pursuit of romantic fulfilment has seldom felt so banal.

Action Replayy
...a soulless, charmless picture that is nothing short of a punishment to endure.

Super Nani
...tacky, unintentionally hilarious film that seems to have shown up roughly 30 years after its expiration date.

Welcome 2 Karachi
Blatant stereotyping, infantile humor, and lackluster performances are just three of the problems that plague 'Welcome 2 Karachi'...

Bheja Fry 2
The original film, although entirely plagiarized, had a charming innocence to complement its outrageous humor. This one is dead dull, and a total waste of two precious hours.

Dangerous Ishhq
Ambitious but seriously flawed, the film smacks of laziness in virtually all departments, and even Karisma Kapoor's earnest performance can't save the day.

Satya 2
...is not so much an engaging film as it is an interesting idea that Varma squanders away with a hackneyed script, and an ensemble of over-actors.

Alone
...director Bhushan Patel relies on all the usual tropes- from creaking doors and barking dogs to rearranged dolls and creepy reflections - delivering no more than two decent scares in this criminally uninspired film.

Patiala House
This film may work for those who miss old-fashioned melodramatic entertainers, but I was bored.

AkaashVani
...a promising but ultimately inconsistent film that starts out at one place, but ends up at quite another.

Chaurahen
For a film about characters at the crossroads of their lives, this one leaves you lost for directions.

Tubelight
...is well intentioned but overtly manipulative and doesn't so much tug at your heartstrings as it punches you in the face demanding that you care.

Hide & Seek
Apart from the promising premise, there isn't a kind word I can think of for this one!

Always Kabhi Kabhi
It's amateurish, and tedious to sit through, and the only thing you can appreciate in the end is the earnestness behind the effort.

Miley Naa Miley Hum
The film is a waste of time and money on the part of those who made it and those who're brave enough to watch it.

A Gentleman
It’s a harebrained set-up and over the next 132 minutes, the makers manage to offend everyone from gays, to African-Americans, to fat people, and just about anyone with a modicum of taste and common sense.

Total Dhamaal
I want to say here that I’m not against comedies that require complete suspension of disbelief. But even that requires thought, clever writing, and a lightness of touch. Total Dhamaal has none of those things.
