  • Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?

    The central flaw with the film is its failure to evoke sympathy for the central characters. Having suffered unbearable guests themselves, most viewers will find Chachaji’s antics harmless; even amusing.

    So why was this film made? Do the makers really expect the audience to be happy with a simplistic horror film that couldn’t scare a child?

  • Toh Baat Pakki

    ...the only reason we can recommend the film is Tabu alone. Watch it, if that’s reason enough for you to sample the rest of the mediocre fare.

  • My Name is Khan

    Karan Johar proves he’s set on doing films after his heart. Viewers who turn down thinking films saying they prefer the 'Karan Johar brand of cinema' may well revise their definition.

  • Rann

    ...Ram Gopal Varma really had a chance to make a film that could carry its message to the film-watching public. Instead, you have black and white characters comprising the usual clique of the righteous man, the villainous politician, and supportive love interest.

  • Rann

    Veer, mounted on lush production values, shows you everything in hyperbole: the costumes and jewellery, the battlefield, the body count, the unattainably beautiful princess, and the comic-book style hero.

  • Chance Pe Dance

    Had the film retained its smart, humorous and authentic tone without falling into pattern, this would have been a great watch. For now, you’ll have to forgive the predictable second half if you want to enjoy Shahid’s uninhibited, charming performance.

    Despite Sushmita Sen’s vivaciousness, SRK’s cameo and a very able supporting cast, Dulha Mil Gaya doesn't manage to stay afloat as it's a story that we've seen too many times already.

    Go ahead, enjoy this slice-of life movie that may not completely convince and does take time to unfold, but will leave you smiling anyway.

    ...could have been immersing for its disturbing turn of events and the characters’ casual lack of morals, but turns out just another below-par thriller.

  • Radio

    A very simplistic story made unnecessarily gimmicky with the story told in chapters and sketchy characterisations, Radio is watchable only for fans of froth.

  • Paa

    ...Balki outdoes himself with a film that’s intelligent, entertaining and visually arresting.

  • Kurbaan

    ...if you can forgive the director’s `filmy’ take on terrorism and can enjoy the thrilling moments and superb performances nevertheless.

  • Tum Mile

    ...Kunal Deshmukh comes up with another winner. Go for it, and enjoy the love story folded into a disaster flick combo.

  • Jail

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

  • Aladin

    Despite the length being a tad too long and the enchantment quotient hovering around average, the film might still be worth a watch for a few amusing moments.
