Mittal v/s Mittal
There have been many films made on rape and sexual violence. Most of them hope that depiction of violence will help to titillate the audience. Mittal Vs Mittal also sets out with this objective but the audience is more likely to get repulsed than titillated.

Mission Mangal
...has its heart in place, if not all of its science -- home or rocket.

Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho
...takes off with a great premise but fails to realise its full potential.

Miss Lovely
...the film has achingly pleasurable performances from the cast and the brilliant sound design.

Mirzya
Neither this intense-because-we-say-it-is romance running through the film or the soft-focus-myth is actually interesting, and -- shorn of love, or moments -- Mehra's film begins to grate quite early on.

...has its fun moments and a few laughs. With a lighter treatment it may have been a real rib-tickler.

Mickey Virus
...is based on an interesting idea, the plot is good and the film is relevant at a time when cyber crime is increasing. However, with weak direction, even the best of stories cannot be told well.

Mere Dost Picture Abhi Baki Hai
...a forgetful film laced with vulgar dialogues that pass for humour, worn out production values and acting that will make you cringe.

Mere Dad Ki Maruti
It’s a ride, a goofy, forgettable ride. One that throws up a debutant director with promise and actors who deserve to be in more films.

Mere Brother Ki Dulhan
...a pretty ordinary effort. It's the kind of movie where everyone looks catalogue cool and beams with enthusiasm to make the going-ons appear droll and exciting.

Mera Fauji Calling
At its core, Fauji Calling has a good idea. But it could well have been at least 30 minutes short.

...could have been a nice li'l gem. It's a tragedy that it limits itself to mediocrity.

Maximum
The idea of corrupt cops facing off against each other can be a fine one, but mired here in the midst of people saying things really really slowly, it loses its steam.

Mausam
As manipulative masala tearjerkers go, it's a film that tries relatively earnestly and certainly one that occasionally looks striking, but disappoints overall.

Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola
And no matter the slight niggles: this is a film that goes far out on a limb, and gives us both bedlam and nuances, enough to warrant repeated viewings. And more than enough to love.

Mastram
Director Akhilesh Jaiswal, who wrote Gangs of Wasseypur, seems unable to make up his mind as to how to firmly hold the narrative in his directorial debut Mastram.

Mastizaade
Even the absolute daftest of sex comedies have room for something sharp and clever and cheeky. Because Austin Powers minus the groovy is just pervy, baby, pervy.

Marjaavaan
Nothing can salvage the Marjaavaan mess -- not religious symbols tattooed on Malhotra's knuckles, the two-and-a-half hours of hysterically hamming people, the boisterous background score, the stale imagination, the burly giants, the phony rain, the cheap blood, the microwave romance, the laboured hostility, the incessant babbling on mohabbat and ibadat, not Arjit Singh yowling in a loop.

Margarita With A Straw
...a refreshingly, brutally honest film which ends up making the tiny mistake of adding an emotional, clichéd ending.

Mardaani 2
Between spoon feeding motives and relying on too many contrivances to provide Sunny an easy escape, Mardaani 2 loses on nuance.

Mardaani
If only the script weighed more in intensity of thoughts than stagy heroics and simplistic resolutions, it could do a lot more for women in the film industry if not society in general.
