From Sydney With Love
When the director of a film is also the producer, writer as well as the lead actor, things are bound to get a bit messy on the celluloid.

Rajdhani Express
If good motives alone never made good movies, then we better not try to gauge the motive behind this film. By that logic, Rajdhani Express can easily lay claim to be one of the worst films of 2013.

Hum Hai Raahi CAR Ke
There’s no lack of tepid efforts in Bollywood and this film adds to the list.

Grand Masti
The makers may be targetting the college kids (who will joke about it) and frontbenchers (with an aim to titillate), asinine stuff after all also has takers in the name of entertainment.

Grand Masti
No one has probably abused the term 'Kuch bhi chalta hai' as often as David Dhawan. Rascals is yet another example.

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.

Ujda Chaman
This is a film about lost hair that eventually makes you want to tear your own off at some point.

Humshakals
Silly, irreverent humour is always a welcome change. But braindead, childish (sorry children, don't roll your eyes yet) pathetic attempt at funny is not.

Great Grand Masti
There is no masti in this one; rather, it looks like things were done zabardasti.

Kismet Love Paisa Dilli
The point to note is that when you make adult comedies, they jolly well be funny, not crappy like KLPD.

Life Is Beautiful
The direction is directionless, the acting is awful, the music is humdrum and well, there is no story.

Freaky Ali
...we thought this was going to be a realistic picture about a poor man from a basti taking up a gentleman’s sport, that’s golf. Well, it partly is. About golf? Maybe. Realistic? No.

Hawaizaada
Nothing is more disappointing than a director overlooking details while creating an entirely different era for you.

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.

Amavas
The incoherence is baffling, and one is only compelled to wonder why a team of qualified artistes would create this kind of cinema.

Amavas
The film doesn't work for true horror fans, for fans of crude humour or smut seekers. It has a little bit of everything but nothing really stands out -- in part or whole.

Ata Pata Laapata
It’s better that this film remains laapata to the audience and Yadav stick to his acting.

Luv U Soniyo
What can one possibly say about a film that is so unidirectional that you get tired of correctly predicting what the next scene will be?

Chal Pichchur Banate Hain
For a film that intended to be a tribute to a commoner’s unparalleled love of cinema, it hardly made an impact as one.

Ghost
Debut director Pooja Jatinder Bedi attempts to make a horror film with all serious intentions. However, instead of my knees shivering in fright, my tummy was aching with all that laughter that she had induced in the process.

Race 3
...Khan plays to the gallery but doesn't look particularly pleased about doing it, wearing a deadpan look throughout. The lesser said, the better about the predictable twists in the actioner.

Bank Chor
Calling this convoluted mess a film is demeaning to the word, because I have seen 14-year-olds put together better work than this at school plays.

Marjaavaan
Strictly for Mallika fans who want a dose of her trademark titillation wrapped under the pretense of a thrilling story of a snake-woman.

Barefoot To Goa
The intention is right — it deals with a relevant social issue of how old parents are abandoned by their children and looked at as inconvenience — but the execution definitely is not.
