Harud
If the purpose of a movie is to move you, then Harud does that pretty well. For mainstream regulars, this independent effort might come across as a bit boring.

Kyaa Super Kool Hain Hum
Neither vulgar enough to denounce, nor gross enough to outrage, nor absurd enough to be funny, just plain indifferent and insipid.

Challo Driver
...it makes an attempt to gauge the pulse of today’s youth. However, once the movie sets into motion, the lack of acceleration in the screenplay wrecks the show.

Mere Dost Picture Abhi Baki Hai
It could have been a slice-of-life but the need to make it a masala fare infused with the usual clichés makes it a drag.

Cocktail
When you see two pretty chicks and a hunk prancing around in foreign locales looking deliriously happy singing about deep friendship, you know, of course, what to expect.

Maximum
This police department politics story had the potential to become a gripping drama about morality and justice. But it stays indifferent and lacklustre.

Teri Meri Kahaani
Whatever prompted or inspired this so-called 'thrice upon love story'? It is replete with run-of-the-mill ideas that we have seen since decades in Hindi filmdom.

Gangs Of Wasseypur
...a delightful film. It has a grand plot, lots of interesting characters, and an epic canvas.

Ferrari Ki Sawaari
Rajesh Mapuskar, take a bow. Your story is intimate, the telling is lovingly detailed.

Qasam Se Qasam Se
When you insist on papa making a film for you, at least make sure that the plot has some semblance of logic.

Shanghai
...is a dark earthy film; it’s a drama played over and over again in front of us in the 9 pm news, these are characters we are acquainted with.

Ishaqzaade
If only the second half had not meandered into a redlight area, this film would have been a great watch, but still it is worth a viewing.

Jannat 2
...the plot gives too many misfired shots which if aimed well could have made for an interesting watch.

Although it’s supposed to be hilarious, there are very few instances proving it so.

Life Ki Toh Lag Gayi
...when you take on over-familiar subjects seen umpteen times on the big screen like Mumbai’s underworld; showbiz and the casting couch; the nexus between the cops and the politicians there is a sense of déjà vu.

Tezz
In a bid to infuse the melodrama bits into Tezz, scant attention has been paid to the plot that keeps going off the track.

Hate Story
Agnihotri tries to bring alive the tale but is hampered by the script despite the good production values making it for just an okay watch.

Vicky Donor
...is one of those films that yet again affirm that you don’t need big stars with hefty remunerations nor do you have to cross the Atlantic to scour exotic locations.

Bittoo Boss
It could have done a lot better in terms of entertainment, if nothing else. Perhaps making a memorable movie wasn’t part of the plan.

Housefull 2
This is a movie in which you have to leave your brains out of the auditorium. You may chuckle, laugh, smile or squirm (take your pick) on the silliness that unfolds. You can step in and out of the auditorium, it won’t matter.

Only if you have time to kill on hand and want to escape the seething heat outside, step into the AC environ for this sparkless fare.

Agent Vinod
Though there is an earnest attempt to make a thriller considering that the director (Sriram Raghavan) is known for this genre of films - Ek Hasina Thi and Johnny Gaddar-- this time the makers have tried to make a masala thriller stirring in too many ingredients making it difficult to digest.
