Great Grand Masti
...has all the regular trappings to satisfy the average adult comedy aficionado. But if you expect even the slightest amount of grace and intelligence in your cinema, you’ll have to look away.

...is average fare, but when it comes down to the strength of certain ideas at work, it does manage to keep a tight hold on its audience.

Shorgul
...tries to tell a tale of merit. But the methods it employs to tell its story are so jaded, you just lose your faith in the film.

Junooniyat
There isn't really much to see in Junooniyat that hasn't already been seen and done much better in the past. Guess the passion isn't strong enough with this one.

Raman Raghav 2.0
...it can only be enjoyed if you can accept misogyny, death and gore as integral parts of reality. Otherwise, this movie can be quite the nerve-wracking experience.

Dhanak
If you believe in inspirational Instagram posts and the power of positivity, Dhanak is the film for you. The cynics might find the lack of gritty realism a bit too much, but even the most hardcore realists will agree that this little road movie ticks all the boxes when it comes to ending on a happy note.

Housefull 3
Sajid-Farhad had ample opportunities to make a genuinely campy situational comedy but bungled it.

Veerappan
It's not the worst film Ram Gopal Varma has made. Nor is it any close to his best. It's just a middle-of-the-road offering where seeing an actor look like the mirror image of Veerappan catches your fancy for a few fleeting moments.

Waiting
Humour blends with sadness beautifully in the film without making the script melodramatic.

Sarbjit
Some stories deserve to be told with nuance and intimacy. You can't employ movie making formula when you're trying to depict reality and tragedy with authenticity.

Dear Dad
Go watch this short, sensitive film that gives out the message that parenthood has nothing to do with one’s sexuality.

Buddha In A Traffic Jam
...has the right ideas. But the way it tells it's story is lackluster. In trying to be relevant and artistic, it loses the plot on more than one occasion.

1920 London
The usual characteristics of a horror film, like eerie music, make-up, special effects and moody cinematography are all lackluster though. If you like genuine thrills you'd have to look away. This one's just for gags.

One Night Stand
a very competent film. It's commercial packaging does create a bit of contrast to its relevantly real themes. But that's not really a bad thing.

Traffic
Despite it's minor flaws Traffic is a film that deserves attention and an audience. It's a fantastic story of human spirit.

It’s a unique concept, it’s been executed by some masterful CGI and SRK has dug deep into his reserves to give a stellar double-role performance.

Rocky Handsome
Style and stunts play a big role in action movies. But you can't discount other aspects of filmmaking just to make an action film that looks sexy.

Kapoor & Sons
Director / writer Shakun Batra's and his co-writer Ayesha Deveitre Dhillon are the true heroes of this film. Their story, their dialogue and the situations they've created add great depth to the movie.

Jai Gangaajal
It’s a pure masala entertainer with vigilante justice by the masses as its main course. It does try to say that it’s hard to control the fire when the mob grows on rampage.

Zubaan
...this unconventional story is crisp and the first half steals the show. The second half is slow in parts and the end is a tad rushed.

Tere Bin Laden Dead Or Alive
We don’t make broad comedies which border on the absurd and it’s good of Abhishek Sharma to attempt a political satire that does tickle the ivories. A little more attention to editing and tauter screenplay would have made it a better film for sure…
