Mirzya
There’s a lot to admire in Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra’s Mirzya, but coherent narrative and compelling characters are not among its strengths.

Miley Naa Miley Hum
The film is a waste of time and money on the part of those who made it and those who're brave enough to watch it.

Milenge Milenge
The problem with this film is that it's lacking in basic logic, and that its characters are complete stereotypes. Add to that the fact that Kaushik's treatment is extremely outdated even for a film that was meant to be released five years ago.

Problem is, this film is never more than just a good pitch. A concept in search of a plot.

Meri Pyaari Bindu
There are moments and sequences in the film that are moving and funny and quietly heartbreaking. But those are few in an overlong film that never quite finds its groove.

It's light and easy, and not hard to like. Just don't expect much more.

Mere Brother Ki Dulhan
The film doesn't always work because it relies too heavily on silly stereotypes and cliches, and because you can see exactly where it's going from the moment you settle into your seat.

Mausam
As you leave the hall exhausted from the sheer length of this misguided enterprise, you cannot help but note that despite its many flaws, this is a noble failure. The film doesn't work, but not for lack of trying.

Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola
Vishal Bhardwaj gives us a film that's enjoyable and relevant in equal measure.

Mastram
As it is an 'imagined biography' of the writer, we were left with the nagging thought that the writer of 'Mastram' had not made him as intriguing, mysterious and naughty as one might have hoped.

Very little of this feels fresh or genuinely funny, and there’s virtually no plot to speak of.

There are multiple layers to this well-observed drama; kudos to the filmmakers for putting it on screen.

Margarita With A Straw
Powered by a staggering performance from Kalki Koechlin as a 19-year-old with cerebral palsy, Margarita with a Straw is that rare Indian film that mostly eschews melodrama to give us an honest, sensitive portrait of disability, and the sexual awakening of an Indian teenager.

Mardaani
It's a well-made commercial Hindi film - reasonably short and minus songs - that's trying to say something.

Vasan Bala hits the high notes frequently, even if the film doesn’t quite fall into a seamless symphony.

Main Tera Hero
...is a series of forced contrivances. The humor feels labored and manufactured, never arising spontaneously from the situations. It's a shame because you'd think Dhawan Sr would know exactly how to make these tropes work.

Main Aur Charles
Director Prawaal Raman has very cleverly delivered the incidents in chunks because we already know a lot about the criminal and therefore the documentary had to be in the specific manner.

Madras Cafe
Solidly directed by Sircar, who steers clear of typical Bollywood machismo and avoids oversimplifying characters or their motives, the film - at a little over two hours - is a compelling watch.

Arguably one of the finest actors of our times, Irrfan Khan deserves films worthy of his talent. This one comes up short.

...disappoints on many levels despite being a relevant film. A veteran or experienced director would’ve turned it into a masterpiece as it had all the element of a hard-hitting, entertaining crime-drama thriller.
