Gour Hari Dastaan
The dour performances don't help either. Neither does the thick, gloomy air of the film. While the story is electrifying and inspiring, the film doesn't manage to do justice.

Na Ghar Ke Na Ghaat Ke
Funny at times, crude at others, it's a decent watch if you're willing to forgive the implausible finale.

Murder 2
Director Mohit Suri makes the film soft-porn (brief love-making scenes) and also soft-horror (the crimes are that horrific).

Rocket Singh
After Ab Tak Chhappan and Chak De India, this is director Shimit Amin’s weakest film thus far.

Raajneeti
The film is too long, and the second half is inexplicably stretched. In true Bollywood fashion, politics is elevated to an exalted, unattainable status, and the many dialogues, beginning with Raajneeti mein..., get utterly tiresome.

Daawat-e-Ishq
...a foodie rom-com with a well-intentioned message. Perhaps it's too much to put into one film, and all you get is undercooked, bland biryani, where the flavours clash instead of complementing each other.

Ramaiya Vastavaiya
Watch if you'd like to revisit an '80s style romance with the songs, dances, humour and melodrama all mixed in.

Speedy Singhs
...yet another run-of-the-mill "sports movie" that relies heavily on proven formulas and genre clichés. It's an ok watch, if you don't mind a watered-down Bend it Like Beckham.

Jayanta Bhai Ki Luv Story
...a gangster rom-com that will have you smile in the first half, and snooze in the second.

The Xpose
You can watch the film for the visual chutzpah, a sprinkling of interesting behind-the-scenes moments, and the intermittent unintentional laugh. But honestly, enduring the rest of the film for that, is a stretch.

Kaagaz Ke Fools
In the end, you are left with the thought that the film could have been so much more.

MLA
More shaded and real characters would have taken the film notches higher. However, it's a decent attempt by debut director Shiv Dube.

Table No. 21
Director Aditya Datt seems unsure whether to make a hard-hitting thriller or a soppy drama. He makes a thriller that ends with a moral message.

Rocky Handsome
But a film can work only if the viewer is emotionally invested in the character and their journey. That’s the reason Rocky Handsome doesn’t work neither as an emotional drama nor an action flick.

London Dreams
Go for it, only if you find the Ajay Devgn-Salman Khan Jodi irresistible.

Fatso
...a film that had potential. But somewhere along the way, we just couldn’t understand what to make of the man in the fat suit and his pack of strange friends.

Hate Story 2
...marketed as an erotic thriller, and scores pretty low on both the erotic and thriller counts.

3 A.M.
Director Vishal Mahadkar gives us a film, an amalgamation of so many horror films, which in the end is neither completely original nor spooky.

Ab Tak Chhappan 2
Patekar's strong performance is the film's highlight. He's masterful, but let down by a simplistic, cliched take on the story.

Jail
...lacks the realistic bite of other prison films and also falls short of connecting the audience to the character’s angst.

Patiala House
It's a decent cocktail, but how many times are viewers expected to order the same thing?

My Friend Pinto
...the only time the film sparkles is when super-charming actors Prateik and Kalki descend on the screen and make some magic. Unfortunately these moments are sparse, and snowballed under the sub-plot-stuffed story.

I Me Aur Main
Pretty much like the central character, the film is self-obsessed - rambling on without sparing a thought for its audience.

Nasha
This Nasha had the potential to give you a high, but it's not that intoxicating after all.

Gabbar Is Back
This is a low-brow, gimmicky film that capitalizes on one of Hindi film's most iconic villains, and more unforgivably, on the aam junta's frustrations with the system.
