Lafangey Parindey
...a film that raises its head once in a while to deliver a few nice moments, and then lies down again, supine.

Laal Kaptaan
...there are flashes when you feel the film will finally say something important, but then it lapses back into stodgy set-pieces which go on and on.

Kyaa Kool Hain Hum 3
This film calls itself a ‘sex comedy’: I don’t know about you, but this business of keeping actors standing in a room in one line just the way they would in a sit com, apart from Tusshar’s constant presence), and tossing juvenile lines amongst themselves, doesn’t spell ess-ee-ex to me.

Kurbaan
...raises thorny questions, and prepares us for tough answers. It is an important, relevant film.

Kuku Mathur Ki Jhand Ho Gayi
The film ends up being a strictly average, and mostly bland, slice of Delhi life.

Kucch Luv Jaisaa
Middle-class mummy meets low class hood : the central idea of 'Kuchh Luv Jaisa' is not such a bad thing, but plays itself out clunkily.

Krrish 3
...is a superhero film. It is also a throwback to the creaky family entertainers Bollywood used to make. The hero has special powers, sure, but also a loving daddy, a lovely wifey, an attractive moll and a villain with severe daddy issues.

...the outcome is so spectacularly dull that it overwhelms the most technologically advanced cinematography witnessed in Indian cinema.

Kick
We know that a Salman film is created solely to display his popular quirks and his one-liners and his ‘andaaz’, all of which are designed to send his fans into a swoon.

Ki & Ka
Great to see the premise– send a woman out, keep a man in, and reverse gender expectations- on screen : it just needed to have been sharper and deeper.

Khwaabb
It’s tough to make a true-blue sports film, minus song and dance and melodrama, in Bollywood. This one has tried.

Khwaabb
...is bubblegum-y and air-headed and good-natured, and its biggest strength is that it keeps it consistent, becoming one of those films that over-delivers precisely because it under-promises.

Khiladi 786
In the end, I was left looking at a straw to clutch. Any little thing. I found, dear viewer, none. Not. A. One.

Khichdi
...this one is strictly for those who love Khichdi, the serial, with a passion, and miss it enough to want to watch the movie, which plays out like four or five extended episodes.

Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey
...the gaps between the intention and the final product : the book's gripping characters and its rousing patriotic tale never comes fully alive on screen.

Khamoshiyan
There’s your new Bhatt Brothers film, which does exactly what you expect : plays out familiar erotic-horror-thriller ingredients on new, or almost-new faces.
