Fukrey Returns
For a film that aspires to be a full-on laugh riot, Fukrey Returns is a bit of a trudge.

Fukrey
...is full-on entertainment although it stops shy of being an outstanding comedy.

Fugly
The characters are poorly etched, the screenplay is insipid, and the performances, to say the least, are well below par.

Freaky Ali
Director Sohail Khan pulls all the plugs to give the film a mass appeal and that is why it probably works.

Force 2
It's the sheer predictability of this narrative form that drags Force 2 down a few notches. Be that as it may, it is an entertainer that passes muster.

Fitoor
...succeeds in turning a literary classic into a contemporary cinematic feast for the eyes and the senses.

Fireflies
If you like watching cinema on disintegrating relationships watch this one. It doesn't disappoint.

Firangi
Neither the comic potential at the core of the film nor the energy of Kapil Sharma's antics is enough to pull it out of the irremediable mess it degenerates into. Firangi might have been harmless fun if only it had stopped short of running so hopelessly amok.

Filmistaan
This quirky charmer from first-time director Nitin is fresh in vision and enchanting in execution.

Ferrari Ki Sawaari
This competently crafted and well-intentioned cricket-themed film steers clear of many of commercial Hindi cinema’s narrative conventions - it sure gets full marks on that count - but succumbs to some of its most retreaded cliches.

Fanney Khan
...abounds in such leaps of logic. But all of it is in the pursuit of some harmless fun and emotional manipulation. The fun remains low-key; the vigorous pulling at the heartstrings, which gathers momentum in the lead-up to the climax, yields some returns by way of emotional impact.

Fan
...works for the most part because it has the fabulous SRK act as a 'young' star-struck boy. His energetic performance is worth the price of the ticket - if not more.

...the film is so staggeringly moronic that you walk out completely exhausted.

Entertainment
...is unabashedly asinine and delivers anything but what the title promises.

English Vinglish
It would work strictly for those who can discount the film’s oversimplified worldview.

Ek Villain
The biggest of the villains in Mohit Suri’s Ek Villain is the screenplay itself. It is as muddled as a serial killer’s twisted mind and just as destructive.

Ek Tha Tiger
...has enough zing, visual and otherwise, to keep you in your seats for its runtime of a little over two hours.

Ek Paheli Leela
The painfully pointless Ek Paheli Leela is a full-blown cinematic conundrum whose depth is inversely proportional to the geneorus decolletage that is on show.

Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga
...goads the audience to think differently without trying to deviate from its primary purpose, which is to deliver entertainment. It does the latter well enough and yet does not overly dilute its off-kilter vision. No mean feat that.

Dunno Y Na Jaane Kyun...
The script, performances, dialogue and direction are so staggeringly inept that Dunno Y is an instant classic and the latest entrant to my list of so-bad-they-are-good films.

Dum Maaro Dum
This is one film that should soar but sadly it never quite takes flight. The problem is the writing.

Dum Laga Ke Haisha
It is crafted with a string of wonderfully well-written scenes that flow seamlessly into each other, eventually culminating in a heart-warming climax.

Dolly Ki Doli
There is much to like in Dolly Ki Doli. Or, let us put it this way: there isn't much to dislike in Dolly Ki Doli.

Dobaara
...the portentous game of shadows, silhouettes and sly suggestions, which alternates between the teasing and the terrifying, is too much superficial style for a film so slight.
