Thanks Maa
...a brave effort, which deserves your support. Go see it for the street kids, the ones we avoid all day long.

Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?
...a comedy specially tailored for the average Indian family. Thus, everything about the film is average.

Road, Movie
...literally mixes the perils of an untravelled road with the magic of cinema, making it the kind of niche movie one loves at film festivals, but hesitates to buy a ticket for.

Karthik Calling Karthik
...is low on entertainment and remains a bit dark and dreary, so it’s entirely your call.

Teen Patti
...a slick and stylish film with many stars, fancy styling, big budget but little substance and very convoluted logic. Part of the film is in English, part of it is in algebra and the rest seems gobbledygook.

Toh Baat Pakki
...just leaves us, the audience, forever expected to be the suckers. So the film can be safely avoided, yeh baat toh pakki hai.

Road to Sangam
Though its heart is in the right place, Road to Sangam is simplistic and preachy.

Rann
...instead of a sharp well-nuanced expose with fresh insights, we get just another Rann of the mill Bollywood movie, suitably rehashed.

Veer
...doesn’t have is any kind of a script or a director, forget about any other related sense or sensibility. The film is a brutal assault on all your senses...

Chance Pe Dance
...has absolutely no freshness in the story or screenplay, very poor direction, combined with sloppy chemistry between the lead actors.

Dulha Mil Gaya
The clichés play out unendingly in this painful flick which has good production values. Seeing the opulence on screen you often wonder, why someone would spend this kind of money on a brain-dead script like DMG?

Pyaar Impossible
Honestly guys wake up and smell the coffee. Forget love, even hate isn’t possible here. This film leaves you bereft of emotion.

The writing is clever, the dialogue often very witty. But the screenplay falters from time to time.

De Dana Dan
...extra loud and grating experience, with everyone trying a bit too hard at that same mish mash of sex, money marriage comedy garnished with boringly familiar ingredients.

Kurbaan
Despite a difficult subject that deals with terrorism and Islam, the director gets the tone and pitch of the film just right...

Aao Wish Karein
...it’s the dull screenplay once again. Even though it is fully inspired by Big, Aao Wish Karein manages to be overstretched and boring.

Jail
...Jail is well-made, but the subject itself is just too depressing and dreary to serve as entertainment, no matter how hard everyone tries.

Aladin
Aladin is a good example of how to take a beautiful fairy tale, and proceed to fairly destroy it.
