Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster Returns
...fascinating tale of ambition and emotions that might have further benefited from tighter writing.

Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster 3
It’s a good reminder that a bigger budget and bigger scale don’t necessarily make for a better film.

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.

Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga
It's not a bad film at all; it's just not as good as it could've been.

Saala Khadoos
...fails to rise above the timeworn clichés of the genre, but nevertheless succeeds in creating a credible world and, thanks to affecting performances from its principal players, gives us characters that we can care about.

Saaho
The impressively staged but ultimately exhausting action sequences take up the bulk of screen time, but they can’t salvage this soulless film that has all the depth and emotional wallop of a video game.

Roy
...limps lethargically for close to 2 hours and 30 minutes, all but collapsing in a predictable twist ending that you've guessed a long time ago.

Rowdy Rathore
...comes off as nothing more than a cheap attempt to rob moviegoers of their money!

Rocky Handsome
This is lazy film-making of the highest order, and the only thing that deserves any mention are the relentlessly violent but riveting action scenes, including a few stylishly shot rain sequences.

Rockstar
...a far-from-perfect film, but it has honesty and depth, which is mostly missing in Hindi movies today.

Rocket Singh
It requires patience to appreciate it fully, but deserves a viewing because films like this are hard to find.

Robot
If you enjoy spectacle in your cinema, "Robot" is an adventure waiting for you at the cinemas.

Road, Movie
Unpredictable and occasionally charming, Road, Movie has its moments. But in the end it feels too long, a tad boring, and pretentious even.

Right Yaaa Wrong
Cleverly plotted and never revealing all its cards at once, the film is a smart thriller. And yet the director fails to deliver a tight, slick Bollywood entertainer on the lines of those Abbas-Mustan whodunits, because his treatment's so archaic.

Ready
...is strictly for die-hard Salman Khan fans (are there any other kind?) who're willing to forgive the fact that this tasteless, senseless film has no plot to speak of, yet lazily unfolds over two hours and thirty minutes.

Rann
What ultimately comes in the way of Rann achieving the potential of its premise is the over-use of cliche in the absence of original writing.

Raman Raghav 2.0
It's consistently engaging, but doesn't get under your skin like some of Kashyap's other films...

Ram-leela
In the end it is Bhansali - credited for screenplay, editing, music, and direction - who leaves his stamp all over the film. He brings great style and aesthetic to an unapologetically commercial film...

Rakht Charitra – I
...a bold, disturbing film that's bursting with the kind of confidence we haven't seen from the filmmaker recently.

Rajjo
It takes giant reserves of patience to survive a film as bizarre as Rajjo. Watching this movie, you have to wonder what exactly might have tempted an actress of Kangana Ranaut's caliber to commit to it.

Raid
It’s promising and delivers many rousing moments, but it runs out of steam well before the finish line.
