Bodyguard
But how long with audiences put up with bad films (like Ready and this one) just because they want to see Salman Khan?

Desi Boyz
If Rohit Dhawan who has inherited his father David Dhawan's style and, unfortunately, also his cinematic vacuity wanted to take up a mature subject like this, then why did he have to dumb it down so much?

Double Dhamaal
Indra Kumar and his team of actors try really hard to get the comic juices flowing, but so many poor gags can't make a comedy.

Priyadarshan really needs to give himself and his audiences a break from his plagiarized offerings.

Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey
...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.

Nagesh Kukunoor who gave us Teen Deewarein, Dor, and Hyderabad Blues is dead.

Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji
...you go to the cinema expecting laughs and get a poor man’s version of Dil Chahta Hai, without the wit.

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

Rakht Charitra – I
A director with the cinematic skills of Ram Gopal Varma ought to be able to reinvent himself, but all he does is reinvent the wheel.

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

We Are Family
It's as if Siddharth Malhotra and his producer are stuck somewhere in the fifties or in regressive Balaji TV limbo...

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.

Action Replayy
The film is scripted and directed with such a contempt for detail, flat humour, much noise and not one glorious hear-soaring moment

Don 2
From Farhan Akhtar one expects more. And don’t even get started on the awkward plotting and the lapses in logic...nobody watches a thriller with those expectations.

Toonpur Ka Superrhero
The kiddie audience the film is aimed at, has seen so much better on TV and big screen, that Toonpur is bound to evoke yawns. It is so lacking in pace and humour that the really little ones might just doze off.

Game
...the film shoot off on so many directions, with so little purpose, that you give up keeping track after a while.

Ready
Admittedly, the film is not meant for those looking for sensible cinema, but for those who go to the cinema just get some 'timepass'.

Isi Life Mein
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.

Thank You
It is not in the least bit funny. No Entry, Masti and Shaadi No 1, were not either, but they were not as offensive as this one. The lines are cringe-worthy, the performances mechanical.

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

Teen Thay Bhai
So you have good actors, great DOP, lovely location equaling a film that remains snowed under with poor gags, lousy lines, and a romantic track of no consequence.
