    ...the film is watchable for its starkly distinct narrative and stands out amidst the current crop of mindless comic capers and over-the-top action flicks.

  • Budhia Singh

    There are no star trappings, but the film leaves you with a warm, fuzzy feeling. So much so that you will want to overlook the flaws and just enjoy the experience.

  • Ishaqzaade

    If only the second half had not meandered into a redlight area, this film would have been a great watch, but still it is worth a viewing.

  • Vicky Donor

    ...is one of those films that yet again affirm that you don’t need big stars with hefty remunerations nor do you have to cross the Atlantic to scour exotic locations.

  • LoveYatri

    Aayush and Warina fans are in for a surprise, and Salman fans too will get what they expect from the film - entertainment in terms of dialogues, dance and screen presence.

  • Zed Plus

    If it had stuck to its genre of being just a political satire, without recourse to excessiveness, Zed Plus could have been got greater access.

  • Agent Vinod

    Though there is an earnest attempt to make a thriller considering that the director (Sriram Raghavan) is known for this genre of films - Ek Hasina Thi and Johnny Gaddar-- this time the makers have tried to make a masala thriller stirring in too many ingredients making it difficult to digest.

    ...redefines the horror genre in Bollywood. It proves that we've come a long was since the era when the Ramsay Brothers...

  • Dishoom

    They have splurged on the film’s styling, but not on the storytelling. Agreed it is a leave-your-brains-at-home entertainer, but some method to the madness would have packed a punch.

  • Mr. X

    Bhatt tries to incorporate the superhero angle, but his linear narrative springs no surprises and as soon as he makes his hero go invisible, his entire plot is clearly visible and the heavy inspiration from Hollywood flicks.

  • Housefull 2

    This is a movie in which you have to leave your brains out of the auditorium. You may chuckle, laugh, smile or squirm (take your pick) on the silliness that unfolds. You can step in and out of the auditorium, it won’t matter.

  • Phullu

    ...at times, may appear to be a social service campaign, considering its subject, but an effort has been made which needs to be lauded. It may be a small start, but a beginning has been made to change the mindset about menstruation.

  • Hate Story

    Agnihotri tries to bring alive the tale but is hampered by the script despite the good production values making it for just an okay watch.

  • Tezz

    In a bid to infuse the melodrama bits into Tezz, scant attention has been paid to the plot that keeps going off the track.

  • Life Ki Toh Lag Gayi

    ...when you take on over-familiar subjects seen umpteen times on the big screen like Mumbai’s underworld; showbiz and the casting couch; the nexus between the cops and the politicians there is a sense of déjà vu.
