Bang Bang!
How many times have you ordered a dish that looks terrific photographed in a menu, but disappoints when it shows up on the table? Bang Bang is that kind of meal.

Kis Kisko Pyaar Karoon
...if you're Kapil Sharma buff, then book yourself a seat in the nearest cinema hall. If you aren't and still keen on watching the film, do it at your own risk.

Saare Jahaan Se Mehnga
It's not a bad film at all; it's just not as good as it could've been.

Zed Plus
The film isn't bad, it is definitely not unwatchable- but with actors like Adil Hussain, KK Raina playing key roles, one hoped to be awestruck or overwhelmed.

Shuttlecock Boys
...deserves a watch for the effort that went into making it. It's not a perfect film, but you will have the biggest smile on your face watching it.

Fukrey
A tighter script and more screen time for the excellent Pankaj Tripathi, as enterprising campus security guard Pandeyji, might have helped turn this moderately entertaining film into a rollicking good caper.

Singham Returns
...feels long and occasionally plodding. There are some nice scenes that inspire police pride, but the predictable story tires you out eventually.

Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga
...is a respectable directing debut from Dhar, and a film with its heart in the right place. The writing ought to have been braver.

Vishwaroop
A lot of it is unabashedly entertaining, although you'll wish the film was shorter and smarter.

Singh Is Bliing
Yet with all its faults, Singh is Bling isn't entirely unwatchable also because Akshay Kumar is in great form.

UnIndian
Apart from clashes of culture UnIndian doesn’t have much going on. If you think of it, after spending over 90 minutes, all you’d remember of the film is a clichéd cross-over film.

Badrinath Ki Dulhania
...has its heart in the right place, but its writing is often clumsy.

Jail
Because it's well-intentioned and settles for a hopeful message, you stay with the film despite the fact that it's never quite compelling.

Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?
With better writing it might have been a crackling piece of comedy. As it is now, it's a reasonably enjoyable weekend watch.

Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji
...is too long for a light-hearted comedy, and the dialogue is pedestrian. Still it’s not a complete waste of time; there are some laughs to be had.

Student Of The Year
The characters of 'Student of The Year' lack the emotional depth that made you fanatically root for KKHH's Anjali. But traces of that magic remain in the Hogwarts of Johar's imagination.

Chef
...isn’t perfect; it lags in places, offers quick-fix solutions to characters’ problems, and feels wholly familiar. But at a little over two hours, it doesn't ask much of you, and offers some pleasure in Saif Ali Khan’s return to form as an actor hard to look away from.

Yeh Dooriyan
...celebrates womanhood, and presents the new age independent woman, in a brave manner. She should be praised for it. Your opinion about the film will depend on your social perspective.

Daddy
The craft is admirable and the big denouement is thought provoking, but pacing issues cripple the film to the extent that you’re exhausted by the time the lights come back on.

Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani
...if you must, watch it for Ranbir Kapoor whose performance alone justifies the price of a ticket.

Hide & Seek
It is worth a watch for the excellent storytelling only if you ignore the climax. The film certainly has its moments of chills and thrills.

Question Mark
The film definitely has scary moments but the length mars the excitement.

Ek Villain
It's a shame then that despite the uniformly impressive performances, and Suri's nifty directing skills, the film is only moderately fulfilling.

Hope Aur Hum
It has its heart in the right place and manages to seep you in its own nostalgia and think of things beyond the film. But there’s something that doesn’t quite make it through. The message of this family drama stays with you but the film, unfortunately, might not.

...despite its contrivances, leaves you choked more than once. How can it not, with all that unabashed emotional manipulation?

Monsoon Shootout
Here’s a story with wasted potential, one that could have been more effective with tighter writing and clever twists.

Teen Patti
A stylish attempt definitely, but it goes wrong horribly towards the end. Such big money and great actors are not put to optimum use, thanks to a flawed script.
