Aashayein
There are many reasons why Aashayein is a difficult film to sit through, but chief among them is its misplaced sense of self-importance.

Lafangey Parindey
...isn't a particularly bad film; it's just not a good film either. It's the kind of film that keeps you waiting for something to happen, but nothing ever does. There's no element of surprise or unpredictability in its screenplay...

Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai
The film is watchable and enjoyable in parts even, but it doesn't quite pull off the retro chic tone it was going for.

Udaan
It's one of the best films this year, and one you will carry in your heart for years.

Tere Bin Laden
...a low-IQ comedy that succeeds in making you laugh occasionally, despite its highly improbable premise.

Milenge Milenge
The problem with this film is that it's lacking in basic logic, and that its characters are complete stereotypes. Add to that the fact that Kaushik's treatment is extremely outdated even for a film that was meant to be released five years ago.

Mr. Singh Mrs. Mehta
...doesn't have a shred of artistic merit. The film is tackily shot and feels as if the director had no idea how to go forward with his threadbare plot.

Raajneeti
...is thrilling and gripping for the most part, even though it does lose steam in its final act.

Kites
...it's an ambitious, brave experiment that may not always work, but it tries. Which is more than what one can say about many films we've seen recently.

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

Badmaash Company
Flogging the infamous Yash Raj Films formula of stylish costumes, gorgeous foreign locations and hip dance numbers, Sethi delivers a film that is entirely superficial and staggeringly dull.

It's a Wonderful Afterlife
...is missing the energy and the zing of her previous hit "Bend It Like Beckham", but it's a moderately entertaining film nonetheless thanks to some witty dialogue, and the enthusiastic performances of its two female protagonists.

Housefull
If corny humor is your thing, give this film a chance. If you have even a modicum of intelligence or taste, however, stay far away from this one!

City Of Gold
The film is watchable for the most part, and might have worked perfectly as an honest slice-of-life drama if it weren't for the filmmaker's tendency to go over the top.

Apartment
The film doesn't work from the moment go because the script's amateurish and Mundhra's direction decidedly pedestrian.

Phoonk 2
...is what you'd describe as Ramgopal Varma-lite. The thrills and scares are few and far between. They could have made this film in their sleep. Who knows, they probably did!

Paathshaala
It's clear the makers of this film had the seed of a good idea, but lacked the skills to turn it into an engaging film.

The Japanese Wife
There is no denying the fact that The Japanese Wife gets bogged down by its indulgent pace. But stay with it and you will be rewarded.

Prince
...marvelously moronic movie that uses visual effects to fake everything from stunt scenes and explosions, to hi-tech gizmos and even the Mumbai skyline.

Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai
It's got moments that will make you smile, but it's hardly out of this world.

Pankh
The film picks up the important and delicate issue of gender confusion and sexual identity, but treats the story in such a pretentious and heavy-handed manner that it's sometimes hard to empathize with the protagonist's pain.

Tum Milo Toh Sahi
This film is intended as a warm drama about love in a big city, but the script never quite gets around to achieving that.
