For its sheer inventiveness and for some terrific comic moments, this film is worth a watch.

The three friends, parched both emotionally and sexually, will have you rooting for them and cheering as they find their feet and their freedom in the end.

...it's better if one keeps his/her thinking cap outside the theatre. Do not question the logic and you will enjoy it.

Gattu
It’s the kind of charming film that’ll feature on critics’ year-end lists of movies you should have watched but probably didn’t.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan
Despite its many script problems, it's a consistently watchable film that oozes with feeling and real emotion. A fitting swan song.

Ajji
...is a tough watch. Deliberately so. It took me a long time to get the film out of my head, and while it’s potent and rattling, it’s not for the faint-hearted.

Khoobsurat
It may not be for everyone, but for those who seek comfort in the familiar, it's a pretty satisfying watch.

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

...manages to surpass and create a new level in the horror genre. Minus the clichéd dialogues and some over exaggerated scenes, the film is good enough.

It's a Wonderful Afterlife
...is missing the energy and the zing of her previous hit "Bend It Like Beckham", but it's a moderately entertaining film nonetheless thanks to some witty dialogue, and the enthusiastic performances of its two female protagonists.

...let's not confuse the issue with the film, which is well-intentioned yet typical.

Kick
Kick will no doubt break box-office records and earn many many crores for its makers and for its leading man, but it's a shame he must settle for just this.

Crazy Cukkad Family
While the plot is predictable, credible actors play their part extremely well and lift the script to a whole new level.

Raman Raghav 2.0
It does boast of a good starcast, a solid story line but somehow, Kashyap’s signature style of filmmaking is visible only in parts.

Mom
...is a far from perfect film, but it’s never boring. Sridevi’s terrific turn makes up for many of the script problems.

Dhadak
...is ultimately a homogenous Karan Johar production that offers comfort in the familiar...for those seeking it. For the rest of us, it’s just baffling why the folks involved would choose to remake a film about the horrors of caste supremacy, but erase practically every mention of caste from the film.

Race 2
The film has no intellectual pretentions; its only ambition is to offer a good time. In that, it mostly succeeds.

Pad Man
...is admirable and has its heart in the right place, but it might have benefited from a less sermonizing tone.

Kesari
...is well-intentioned but bloated. It’s a two-and-a-half hour battlefield bluster that could have done with sharper writing and judicious editing. When the lights come back on in the end, you can’t shake off the feeling of having survived war yourself.

Yamla Pagla Deewana

Tamasha
...is an uneven film; it oscillates between inventive and indulgent, never quite striking a consistent tone.

Lahore
It's well-intentioned, has its heart in the right place, and it's an engaging enough watch. But it never rises above that to become a film that could truly make a difference.

Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai
The film is watchable and enjoyable in parts even, but it doesn't quite pull off the retro chic tone it was going for.

There's much to appreciate here, but you can't help feeling it could have been so much more.

Dhoom 3
...the film is let down by a convenient script and its inability to deliver solid entertainment.
