Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai
...has serious personality issues. It wants to please all sections of the audience and therein lies the snitch. Despite some fantastic screen moments, memorable punchlines and visuals, the film doesn’t really serve its purpose.

Lamhaa
Rahul Dholakia sure is trying to say something with Lamhaa but the language of expression is too muddled.

Raajneeti
Prakash Jha is a deft juggler. He has so many balls up in the air all at once and he maneuvers them all with enviable skill and dexterity. This is a film designed to impress. And it does so successfully for most parts. Raajneeti is a war cry you can't ignore.

It's a Wonderful Afterlife
This is just the sort of film that makes you wonder - Who funded this trash? Who put their faith and their money where their brain should be? And why should we tolerate such unacceptable cinema?

The Japanese Wife
The minutiae of this lyrical film are not something you will find if you look for it in a hurry. Sit back, let the film draw you into its languorous beauty. You will be happy you found the time to do so.

Love Sex Aur Dhokha
Unflinching and unapologetic, Love Sex Aur Dhoka has an unsettling, off-the-rails quality that gives it a razor sharp edge.

My Name is Khan
To say MNIK is a warm-the-cockles film about a man with Aspergers syndrome who overcomes all odds and triumphs would be to pigeonhole it. The movie has a larger picture-one of humanity, tolerance,redemption and above all love.

...despite it’s engaging premise the film doesn’t manage to strike a very strong note.

Chance Pe Dance
...operates on the premise that stories about strugglers who slum it in Mumbai are interesting and identifiable. Unfortunately that isn’t to be.

3 Idiots
The genius of 3 Idiots ultimately lies in its total lack of emotional manipulation in order to engage the audience.
