Gold
The conflict is fine, the principle characters beautifully etched, but what drags the film down is its predictability and its slow pace.

Jabariya Jodi
...all it manages to be is another proof that good films are made from good screenplays, not a producer's false idea of a winning lead pair.

Benny and Babloo
...manages to become a good example of times when there is a good story concept but it is not written and executed well.

London Paris New York
Filmmaker Anu Menon, puts forth a complete mish-mash of rip-offs and cliches. The twists in the film are mostly predictable taking away the anticipation out of it completely.

Ankur Arora Murder Case
...the fate of Ankur Arora Murder Case gets murdered by filmmaker Suhail Tatari who despite a good story fails to deliver a crackling film.

Bang Bang!
...an amalgam of exotic locations, power-packed action and good looking actors, nothing more...

Ittefaq
If the lead actors: Sidharth Malhotra and Sonakshi Sinha weren't so passionless in trying hard to be mysterious, this film could have been less painful to watch.

Omerta
The staccato storytelling style and the constant shift between past and present is distracting at best. Unfortunately there is no emotional takeaway from the story, so you watch the stabbings and the kidnappings wondering 'what was that?'

Utt Pataang
...apart from the narrative structure there is hardly anything that manages to make a mark about this film.

Pappu Can't Dance Saala
Pappu doesn't quite work saala! Fails to entertain or leave any impact on the audience.

Housefull 2
...may not be a good film but it certainly is better than the worst (namely its first part).

Humshakals
Though it is notches higher an effort from Sajid's last Himmatwala, Humshakals is not the film that would help him redeem his fate.

Bombay Velvet
We have always known Anurag is obsessed with technical finesse in his film and also indulgent at times. Regrettably, this time his attention on the script faltered.

Mona Darling
A good start to a horror film, but it slowly falls into cliches and is unable to recover. Bollywood has never made worthy to be slotted as 'Horror' but this one makes an effort.

Race 3
If you've seen Race movies, then you will know that everyone double crosses everyone else in really tacky disco, hotel settings. Everyone drives really expensive cars that are shown in wild car chases and expensive cars are blown up without impunity.

Right Yaaa Wrong
Even with its dowdiness and disturbingly half-baked logic that finally resolves its central moral conflict, Right Yaa Wrong is still surprisingly watchable, because the film mercifully sticks to its real point without digressing much.

Delhi In A Day
...could have been a fine attempt however, with a wafer thin plot and a very slow pace it turns into a dull affair.

Lucknow Central
The empathy quotient is greater than the implausible liberties taken in the script. A decent watch.

Bombairiya
It's chaotic, funny but has too many threads which make this non-linear film a tiring watch after a while.

The Japanese Wife
It is not often that you see films that you can truly call a labour of love, and even if that is its undoing- there is no question about the fact that this one is straight from the heart.

Listen... Amaya
...had it all to make for a relative contemporary story on human relations but sadly it disappoints due to its amateurish treatment.

Global Baba
...this is a clever little gem that may slip through the cracks simply because the film does not have A-listers. Global Baba is a clever satire, written well but it fails to deliver the punch against fake godmen that Oh My God did.

Meri Pyaari Bindu
...is just about okay. If you wish to escape the summer heat outside or are seeking help in falling asleep, this film is a great option. However, you'll come away loving Parineeti Chopra's performance.

III Smoking Barrels
Three stories from the North East part of India will try and help you understand the unique social and political place they hold in the universe. The third one though outshines the other two and should have been a standalone film. It's about elephant poachers. The first two stories then look trite and unwatchable.
