Isi Life Mein
The movie has its own highpoints but it's pretty much like watching Balika Vadhu for two hours.

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.

Khamoshiyan
...slips into a hopeless mess of time worn ghost busting, freakish sights...

Welcome to New York
The film fails miserably in its intent if the intent were to spoof Bollywood, as it only does that for the sake of punchlines and does not explore it better.

Satyameva Jayate
...Satyamev Jayate's predictable twists and superficial emotions have absolutely nothing new to offer.

Chance Pe Dance
It's mostly harmless, and certainly harebrained. Leave it to the Shahid-obsessed.

Ra.One
The film seems to think that nothing seems to matter as long as there's enough Khan, and it becomes tragically evident that this is a project born more out of vanity than passion.

Zokkomon
...a lackluster script and an overdose of cliched situations turn this film into one more 'preachy affair'.

Not A Love Story
All Ramu seems to be saying is 'look at me,' and we've seen most of that before. This is a film made in bad taste, and -- with apologies to Mr Capote -- in old blood.

R... Rajkumar
The film begins pretty well and Shahid entertains in bits but there's only so much he can do to make this kind of stuff work.

Tiger Zinda Hai
Safe idealism or simply phony, you decide if you intend to endure 161 minutes of this toothless, tiring, plastic Tiger Zzzzzinda Hai.

Lupt
...starts with some scary moments, but ends up like a regular B-grade horror film.

Tere Mere Phere
...passes only in persistently bad acting and that it does by distinction.

One By Two
Abhay Deol shoots himself in the foot by acting in (and, inexplicably, producing) this monstrosity that sucks all the goodwill out of an actor we usually like, and his apparent girlfriend Preeti Desai hands in the kind of atrocious performance that makes vintage Katrina look like Juhi Chawla.

Miss Tanakpur Haazir Ho

Patel Ki Punjabi Shaadi
Kapur and Rawal complement each other well and we would like to see them come together more often. They are the only reason to make PKPS a strictly one-time watch.

Ujda Chaman
Too inept to portray premature balding effects on a man's self-esteem, Ujda Chaman accidentally exposes how desi parents put so much pressure on girls for marriage, they'll settle for any Tom, Dick or Chaman.

Tell Me O Kkhuda
Thanks maybe to the amateurish storyline, Esha comes across as a juvenile delinquent rather than a young woman searching for her roots.

Joker
There isn't a single line in Shirish Kunder's Joker that actually works, leaving us with a film that, while commendably brisk in a 100-minute package, refuses to get going at all.

Mumbai Mirror
This is a terrible mishap of a film that doesn't hold a mirror to society, or the city, but rather stares at it with bloodshot eyes and a dagger in hand.

Shaadi Mein Zaroor Aana
The melodrama is too much, the pace is too slow and the second half is unbearable.

Rakht Charitra 2
RGV's direction is effective but the script lets him down. It lacks the narrative style required, and fails to hold the audience.
