Chalk N Duster
...a film worth your time. It’s fast, dramatic and meaningful. Simply put, a good watch.

Mirza Juuliet
The loud colours, the flamboyant storytelling and characters who have no respect for the law of the land have all been seen before. This film is still fun to watch.

Gold
...is a well plotted drama that sometimes devolves into schmaltz and melodrama. However, it gives us solid two-and-half hours of tricolour hued entertainment.

Udta Punjab
Witty and humorous, Udta Punjab works mostly because of its tone and stand against drugs...

Rang Rasiya
...is much more than just a period film. It’s a statement on behalf of people who reject intolerance and are continuously striving for a new India which will give space to free voice. It’s a piece of art.

Shor In The City
What you do notice about this quintessentially metropolis movie is its sheer spunk, verve and adorably absurd humour.

Zubaan
...is one of the better music-based films in the last couple of years, and will make for a quite a movie experience.

Omerta

Just when you thought Shah Rukh Khan is losing his edge, he makes a comeback. And how!

Trapped
...is a defining film for Motwane who has become braver in using small spaces and silence. It’s the beginning of a style that we must see in his next films.

Tamasha
With Imtiaz’s intriguing take on love stories, scenic locations and brilliant acting by Ranbir and Deepika, it is a one-time watch, but nothing more.

What keeps you hooked is Shah Rukh Khan. He pumps vitality into the narrative. It might get silly but it doesn’t get dull.

Gurgaon
...Shankar’s style of filmmaking is a reminder of Anurag Kashyap’s craft. The rawness of their characters, the unapologetic attitude and a sensible handling of social and gender equations is all there.

Island City
...is well paced, nuanced and to the point. Watch it for the sake of good cinema.

Befikre
There is also a noticeable dip in the second half, and the farcical ending isn’t entirely satisfying. But there’s enough magic here to leave you with a smile.

Sameer
It is the well-knit screenplay and crisp editing that maintains the pace and makes Sameer an edge-of-the-seat thriller with a few melodramatic dialogues thrown in.

Laila Majnu
...is a thoughtfully written film, where the escalation of feelings appears as natural as it can, and characters stay credible even as the intensity becomes unbearable.

My Friend Pinto
These are interesting times. Different voices. Newer faces. Still Bollywood.

Koyelaanchal
Applaud the director for flavouring the Indian heartland with a plot that reads like pulp fiction but feels like a slice of ugly Indian history.

Parched
Parched gets bogged down by its good intentions. But these spirited female characters will stay with you.

Raees
The best way to enjoy Raees then is to manage expectations first. This is an uneven film. In places, you will applaud and whistle. But you might also find yourself utterly exhausted.

Tumbbad
Barve is a director with vision and a voice, and his film will undoubtedly spawn a cult of admirers. And, ideally, imitators. If there’s one thing Tumbbad has to say, it is that all gods need believers.
