  • B.A. Pass

    ...a gripping gritty tale of a reticent gigolo and an uninhibited housewife that deserves a watch for the stellar performances and a startling first half.

  • Jalpari

    ...has the heart in the right place and in a very effective manner tackles the serious issue of female foeticide!

  • Dedh Ishqiya

    Abhishek Choubey commendably juxtaposes the decadent royalty with the guns and goons, the modern era with people latching onto the remnants of grandeur, the loyalists with the traitors, the rich Urdu with the coloquial cuss words and so on.

  • Table No. 21

    Aditya Dutt who’s known for Aashiq Banaya Aapne takes a very interesting idea for a story, infusing a thriller element via a game show brings about a very interesting thought to the film. Even the way he captures the unexplored areas of Fiji Islands is commendable.

  • Hasee Toh Phasee

    ...suffers from flaws in the scripting. A short tale that stretches into a 141 minute film, HTP could’ve been tad more interesting and entertaining.

  • Mod

    Ignoring the weak second half, Mod still can make for a pleasing watch only because of the scenic beauty and brilliant performances.

  • The Attacks Of 26/11

    ...may certainly not be a film that will go down in the history as an epic adaptation of the ghastly terror attacks but it sure isn’t also a film that doesn’t move you at all.

  • Bhoothnath Returns

    ...is neither too funny nor too serious, neither too entertaining nor too drab. In short it lurks somewhere in between and hence fails to leave a lasting impression.

  • Don 2

    Despite having a glossy, slick exterior, the film falters in its storyline making for a boring watch.

  • Inkaar

    ...a brilliantly crafted storyline but loses its steam when it tries fitting into the commercial space of Bollywood.

  • Jolly L.L.B.

    Barring the outstanding performance of Saurabh Shukla, the clever repartees of Arshad Warsi and Boman Irani and the realistic backdrop, Jolly LLB is pretty much an average fair.

  • Revolver Rani

    ...could well be one of the best films of the year, worthy of being lauded at every award function but sadly it ends up being a trite “Tarantino inspired” affair like many others.

  • David

    ...could’ve been a delectable affair with all the snazzy grandeur but sadly ends up disappointing as the maker takes a tripe route to end the film.

  • Gippi

    ...portrays the troubles of adolescence very cutely without passing preachy messages. Only if the film could lose its predictability.
