Babumoshai Bandookbaaz
...appears superficial because it fails to explore characters and their idiosyncrasies. It states everything about them in a matter of fact tone which eventually slacken the audience’s connect with them.

Sanju
As director, Hirani, faced an uphill task in bringing back all those memories in their truest form in Sanju. Hirani does it the way Hirani can, by bringing in the humour and heart in almost every sequence, even the serious ones.

Question Mark
The film definitely has scary moments but the length mars the excitement.

Happy Ending
The film does exceedingly well on the craft front as it moves away from conventional techniques but fails to add a new dimension on the content front. But, you can always watch it for clever one liners and sharp jokes.

Badrinath Ki Dulhania
...Khaitan loses his grip before the high-voltage finale. In the end, he submits to cheesy-funny ‘dialoguebaazi’. That could help him in evoking some whistles, but it dilutes the purpose of featuring an ‘emancipated woman’.

Hichki
...is a well-intentioned film that will give you ample opportunities to wipe tears, but it doesn’t make a strong comment.

Mardaani
Watch it if you have been a Rani fan, but don’t look for any depth in the story.

Bajrangi Bhaijaan
...is totally dependent on Salman Khan's superstardom and he pulls it off provided you overlook his in-your-face 'bhai' act in some scenes. It's an entertaining film for sure, definitely in the not-to-be-missed category.

One Night Stand
...is still an average film with a run-of-the-mill theme. It, however, is one of the better finished products with a similar recipe.

Tere Naal Love Ho Gaya
...a feel good film and you wont find many dull moments but you should also not expect anything fresh.

Mary Kom
...a highly fictionalised account of what actually happened, and in the process it turned out to be one of those films which are made just for whistles and quick money.

Dhadak
...it’s not as powerful as the original, but could be a good watch for audiences looking for decent fresh faces.

Dishoom
It’s a formula potboiler that serves the purpose of entertainment if you’re looking for some light moments.

Tere Bin Laden Dead Or Alive
...is hugely dependent on its writing and the director’s understanding of political and social nuances, but it seems Sharma has deliberately toned down his film.

Beyond The Clouds
Despite excellent symbols and good performances in patches, Beyond The Clouds remains something we have seen and had expected. The uniqueness of the film hardly crosses the crowded bylanes. Majid Majidi’s foreign eyes see what all of them see.

Tiger Zinda Hai
...is exactly the movie you wanted to associate Salman Khan with, so no disappointments on that front.

Mirzya

Lucknow Central
...fails to utilise its resources, especially Diana Penty, and loses out on a chance to become a really engaging film.

Aurangzeb
...a fun thriller with a racy first half and a dragged climax. It's not devoid of any essential ingredient of a 'masala' film and you can watch it for depicting the dark underbelly of the illegal land deals.

Jai Gangaajal
...is just another attempt at making a blockbuster, but it lacks the depth of Gangaajal and Apharan.

Lanka
Manoj Bajpayee's first-rate acting is reason enough to watch 'Lanka' but you can also watch it for the fondness of actual locations and small town stories.

Begum Jaan
...has Vidya Balan in good form, but it lacks cohesiveness as a complete story. It shies away from delving deep into the theme, but you may appreciate its documentary-like treatment.

31st October
Twists are predictable and secondary actors appear half prepared. Also, they keep shifting gears between Punjabi and Hindi.

Mubarakan
You’ll be occasionally laughing, but probably won’t be leaving the theatre with a big smile on your face.

Khajoor Pe Atke
Despite a promising theme, Khajoor Pe Atke is somewhere lost in translation. Thanks to Manoj and Seema Pahwa’s terrific comic timing, the audience bears to sit through this 120-minute botched up relationship drama.

Chaalis Chauraasi
An average thriller but good acting can make you stay throughout the film.

Judwaa 2

From Sydney With Love
...is meant for the takers of simple and idealistic romance. The makers don’t fancy to develop a new love theorem and remains within the comfort zone.
