Tanu Weds Manu Returns
Kudos to the director for helming such a close-to-reality situation with dollops of humour and charting the course of each and every character with a passion that goes beyond the art of good film-making.

Bombay Velvet
If you want to watch Bombay in its pristine glory of the past, Bombay Velvet is a must watch. However, if content is what you are looking for, stay away!

Piku
...is refreshing and quirky at the same time. One of the best things about the film is that all the characters are so well defined and have their importance.

Sabki Bajegi Band
Anirudh Chawla has a very novel thought about hypocrisy in society but the manner in which he tries to send across his message is not so novel, and is also 'over-the-top preachy'.

Jai Ho! Democracy
...was meant to show the farcical side of politics. It turns out being a farce!

Mr. X
Bhatt movies have that same signature tune and similar story-lines (non-existent). Mr. X is no different. He too is non-existent.

Margarita With A Straw
Shonali Bose packs too many emotions into this movie, some unwarranted, which takes away any emotions one might have had as the movie began.

Ek Paheli Leela
The film is shot on a grand scale but the connecting links to the past 300 years are not that convincing. The story could have been better entwined leaving the viewer in a state of suspense.

Dharam Sankat Mein
If you have not had enough of PK and OMG, venture out. If you have seen even the first take on this subject, OMG, you have seen it all.

Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!
...a fine visual treat with streaks of genius. But what goes against this movie is that it lacks soul, and it drags for over two-and-a-half hours.

Hunterrr
...thanks to Gulshan Devaiah and his engrossing, entertaining, energetic, illuminating act as the sex-starved Mandar Ponkshe, Hunterrr becomes a prized catch.

Dozakh
...smartly treads the fine line between the intolerance of religion. The turmoil the child goes through and the stark truth his staunch Muslim father is made to face at a crucial juncture is what elevates this film to a commendable level.

Dirty Politics
The industry or the government has to seriously consider having a 'screening body' to figure out whether the movies that are passed on to the Censor Board can be termed as a 'movie'.

Badmashiyaan
Why, do they not then ban such pathetic content which masquerades as a movie?

Hey Bro
That's the tragedy when people take their proximity to the industry as something like 'baap ka raaj'. I'm a choreographer, so now I will act. Or, I'm a singer, what stops me from playing the lead? This seems to be the thinking of those firmly entrenched in the industry.

Ab Tak Chhappan 2
...is an 80s plot with a 90s twist with director Aejaz Gulab trying to give it a current flavor. It doesn't work.

Khamoshiyan
What's exciting about Khamoshiyan is that this is a well-designed, well-camouflaged horror flick.

Hawaizaada
So much of money wasted in trying to tell a simple tale which required temerity not timidity.

Dolly Ki Doli
The movie had a good premise but Dogra failed to juice out the plot for a fitting climax.
