Vishwaroop II
Haasan has full control over Vishwaroop II – he’s the writer, director, co-producer and star – and yet it keeps getting away from him. The film never settles into a satisfying rhythm: irrelevant scenes are stretched beyond reason and important ones are rushed through.

Kabir Singh
...it takes nearly three hours for Kabir to admit that he has a problem, whereupon he’s immediately rewarded. “Go to the depth of anything and you get zero," we’re warned early on. In this case, it’s absolutely true.

Raabta
This reincarnation drama with convenient plot-points doesn’t quite come together.

AkaashVani
Except for a few moments, and some competent, if synthetic, cinematography by Sudhir K. Chaudhary, a story with immediacy is lost in flinching execution.

Bullett Raja
It is a wishy-washy mix of two brazen hinterland heroes’ misadventures, a revenge drama, and a soap-opera style, hackneyed depiction of Uttar Pradesh politics.

Grand Masti
No double entendre is left unused, no body part unmolested and no pop- culture reference forgotten...

Krrish 3
...is neither Amar Chitra Katha nor Marvel. The Indian superhero stays in an artless, old-fashioned limbo.

Ab Tak Chhappan 2
This sequel stands as a case for why every part 2 is not always a good idea.

Hero
It’s unlikely anyone in this day and age could have made a totally convincing film with material like this, but Hero is dragged down further by pedestrian writing, unremarkable music and patchy direction.

Gulaab Gang
Of all the tributes to Sampat Pal’s debatable feminist politics, this one is the narrowest, and the silliest.

Housefull 2
An unbearable and offensive film with a convoluted plot comprising too many noisy characters.

What The Fish
Given the wishy-washy story and the inept direction by Gurmeet Singh, the usually dependable actors, Kapadia and Manu Rishi, are unable to make anything out of it.

Happy New Year
So much staleness, packed into a running time of 3 hours, is revolting even to the brain-dead stupor that we, fans of Hindi movies, sometimes habitually get into just for the sake of time-pass entertainment.

Creature
The pumped-up background score tries to send a few shivers down the spine, but the only impact is on the ear-drums.

Housefull 3
All the elements of the Housefull formula are in place—jokes about the differently abled, demeaning people of colour, female characters who are bimbos...

Jabariya Jodi
It’s been a year of offensively bad films – PM Narendra Modi, Thackeray, Kesari. But anger and disgust will keep you awake, which is more than I can say for Jabariya Jodi.

Tezz
The tension never builds up, nor do you feel sympathy for any character. In other words, it lives up to expectations and is not worth the time or expense.

Sonali Cable
The title is the only original and catchy element of this debut film by Charudutt Acharya...
