Ki & Ka
...arrives with a curious premise, but Balki fails to flesh it out into an engaging film.

Married 2 America
...an average fair but it has done a good job by focussing on a real issue.

Bhopal: A Prayer For Rain
It's commendable that the film relives the terrible tragedy of the gas leak, but sadly, it has few moments that are extraordinary or even genuinely moving.

Veerappan
...what you leave the cinema with at the end are shattered eardrums from the incessant background music.

Sarkar 3
...is an improvement on many of Varma’s recent films, which, quite frankly, were unwatchable to say the least. Yet it’s steeped in familiarity and an overwhelming sense of repetition and pointlessness.

Jack And Dil
The plot packed with frivolity, meanders without any inciting or sticky moments and the expositions are strictly verbose.

Raat Gayi Baat Gayi
...has the ingredients for a movie one would probably enjoy very much, but somehow they never come together.

Dum Maaro Dum
...is a heady cocktail of crime, deceit, love, sex and drama. And yet, somehow, it fails to come together as the slick action thriller that it set out to be.

Krishna Aur Kans
With good production values, ‘Krishna Aur Kans’ is childish but enjoyable, but you really need to avoid the lack of excellence in animation.

Bangistan
It's likely that buried somewhere under all those unfunny jokes, simplistic sermons, and cringe-inducing melodrama, there may have been a promising idea at the heart of Bangistan.

Fanney Khan
...squanders so much potential, it practically breaks your heart. Only Anil Kapoor succeeds in leaving his stamp all over the film, making your heart go out to this 'selfless' man on a mission.

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.

Heroine
Bhandarkar loses his grip on the script, and it’s evident that his storytelling now desperately needs reinventing.

Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami
Buried beneath the farcical humor, melodramatic performances and manipulative tear-jerking in Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami is a well-intentioned message movie about the value of honesty.

Chala Mussaddi - Office Office
...a feel-good attempt at pointing a finger at the convoluted labyrinths of the Indian bureaucracy and official paperwork but tends to get a tad bit preachy on the whole.

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.

Thugs Of Hindostan
...for the most part Thugs of Hindostan is a humourless, solemn affair.

Mittal v/s Mittal
Predictable, but it does touch upon an important issue and brings out the predicament of a woman who is a victim of marital rape.

Shakal Pe Mat Ja
...a mixture of crass comic sequences where the audience should not look for any sensible content. Watch it if you are a habitual film viewer and would not mind laughing in bits.

Agent Vinod
For a large portion of Agent Vinod, you don't know where things are going… and then it all stretches on so needlessly that you stop caring.

Hawaizaada
...is jingoistic, melodramatic, naïve, and often illogical. It might have worked as a quirky flight of fancy, but Puri and his characters take things way too seriously, robbing the film of that very sense of awe and wonder that it so badly needed.
