No Problem
In the end, despite its cinematic excellence, the film remains a mixed bag because it shies away from pushing the envelope further.

My Friend Pinto
In trying to make Prateik fit that hat Raaghav Dar's My Friend Pinto suffers from a spectacular case of miscasting.

Murder 2
The Bhatts may very well have hit on their hands—people still remember Murder—but they have stooped really low this time, and the censors have to do their jobs better if they are to justify their existence.

Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge
...a light romcom—the formula is tossed energetically and spiked with wit. The young people it is about will probably relate to it.

Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge
...is worth celebrating because it breaks the accepted conventions of what women can or cannot do.

Why crib, originality is never an issue — MBKD is a frothy entertainer.

Luv Ka The End
Chances are girls between the ages of 12 and 18 will love this superficial kind of girl power. Some more will enjoy the 'timepass' idiocy and male-bashing;, and if both kinds are accompanied by their boyfriends, chances are the film will do well.

Love Breakups Zindagi
...is not bad, in fact, it's okay as a date movie. It will probably last in the mind as long as the popcorn in the stomach.

...film plods on to a predictable end, while its slow pace forces the audience to keep waiting for something to happen...

Ladies VS Ricky Bahl
...the film just never gets wickedly humorous, or achieves a sense of challenge and risk; neither does it get sympathy for the girls, so the viewer is never absorbed in the story completely.

Ladies VS Ricky Bahl
...starts sagging even before the interval, and loses sympathy for the victim rather quickly. None of the performances really stand out...

Ladies VS Ricky Bahl
...one expected a sense of excitement, if not immediacy, when watching this saga unfold. Unfortunately, the film is only slightly better than a droning, boring old-style Films Division documentary.

Ladies VS Ricky Bahl
It does seem like a typical 'filmi' story replete with impossible coincidences, it is Ghosh's delicate handling that makes the film worth a watch.

Jo Hum Chahein
...contrived, derivative and very deficient in the joie de vivre that should be the mark of a successful romcom.

Jo Hum Chahein
...does not work as a standalone film, it's just a piece whimsy, to remind us of what our movies used to be like.

Jo Hum Chahein
The kind of quasi progressiveness the film puts forward, has now been appropriated by television, so the film is like watching a TV serial on big screen.

Jo Hum Chahein
The film has some jagged edges, but Onir is earnest, honest and not afraid to make a statement at a time when films are meant to be just light entertainment.

Housefull 2
Nobody would object to a mindless comedy, if it was done well. But since Housefull was a hit, and audiences have proved to be woefully passive when making their ‘timepass’ choices, Sajid Khan can wilfully pass off this excessive silliness as entertainment.

Housefull 2
...a very handsomely mounted, well acted, but not particularly earth-shattering film, given the enormity of the debate at its core.

The ending of the film hints at a sequel...hope they get a better script. And a sense of humour.

Ekk Deewana Tha
...already seems like the worst film of the year. An outdated plot, old-style narration and actors so bad, they ought to be arrested for causing trauma.

Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu
Can't say EMAET disappoints; in fact it comes up to the generally low expectations of a romcom. It is just meant for keeping your eyes on the screen for the running time, and then leave behind with the empty popcorn tub.
