  • Traffic

    The film will keep you engaged with its brilliant execution by late director Rajesh Pillai and remarkable performances by the ensemble.

  • Total Dhamaal

    The outcome is a series of annoying escapades by the stars all of whom seem completely ill-at-ease mouthing inane stuff or masquerading as serious actors perfecting their act of buffoonery.

  • Toilet

    The film doesn't look preachy at all; rather the issue of no toilet is shown in a quirky way. The USP of the film is its dialogues, which are written well.

  • Titli

    Kanu's first attempt as a director doesn't disappoint, only if the slow moving film could have picked up pace towards its crucial end.

  • Thugs Of Hindostan

    ...after sending the pesky writers on long leave, they proceed to throw cash at the the art director, the CGI team, the costume wallas, the extras, the star’s hair stylist, colourist, the carpenters… anything and everything except the story, the dialogue, the writing.

  • The Shaukeens

    With a catchy soundtrack, a steady supply of giggles, top-notch performances and an engaging script, Abhishek Sharma’s The Shaukeens is a worthy follow-up to his first film, the hilarious Tere Bin Laden.

  • The Lunchbox

    What stays in the mind at the end of 'The Lunchbox' is pretty much what stays in mind at the end of a memorable set by jazzmen – not their lapses but the heights they scale.

  • The Accidental Prime Minister

    ...the film, coming as it does in election year, has an agenda — it’s politically motivated. And the motive of this tacky, third-rate propaganda piece is all too apparent in the story it wants us to go home with, and the characters it wants us to hate and love.

  • TE3N

    Watch it for the raw display of human drama and the realistic approach to many situations which has been missing at the movies for sometime now.

  • Tanu Weds Manu Returns

    Director Aanand L. Rai shows his mastery in handling the small town north India milieu in every scene. While the story often indulges in flights of fancy, the director keeps a firm grip on his actors.

  • Tamasha

    The movie isn’t a conventional love story, but every emotion has been layered with justification that only Imtiaz could pull off successfully.

  • Tamanchey

    It’s not a drab premise to begin with, but the makers of this gun-toting film, Tamanchey, seem to lack the craft and the imagination to make this a pacey thriller.

  • Talvar

    What we get is a story that keeps you engaged even though there is hardly any detail that you already don’t know of if you have closely followed the case.

  • Talaash

    Do yourself a favour then: see Talaash only if you believe that Aamir Khan can do no wrong. Otherwise you’ll be left with a sinking feeling.

  • Super Nani

    ...sitting in the twilight of 2014, the film delivers the farcical ‘pati parmeshwar’ message with such conviction that it makes you doubt the calendar.

  • Super 30

    ...makes you smile, it will also break your heart, it will make your spirit soar, and if you have no math inclinations, it will inspire you and make you appreciate its beauty, its usefulness and contribution to the world.

  • Sultan

    ...Salman finally understood the importance of plot driven films. ‘Sultan’ is yet another such film where the actor completely steals the show.
