Raees
...takes you for a boring ride, trying to soak the gangster's character in filmi spiel that is so typical of Bollywood's masala films when the film's creators realise that the plot is absolutely lame.

Radhe
Prabhudeva's factory style film-making turns the South Korean crime drama, The Outlaws, of which Radhe is a remake, over its head and the upshot is a script botched up so badly it is entirely unrecognisable.

Race 3
...doesn’t merely demand you to leave your brains behind but guarantees you won’t find them anywhere even after the ordeal is over.

Race 2
Tightly done action sequences, lots of glamour and one liners that cater to the classes and the masses is what makes Race 2 worth a watch.

...is a rarity. It is intense, riveting, clever, dark, sad, lyrical, heartfelt, relevant and understated.

Raaz Reboot
...has the same old stuff that we have seen a zillions times. So unless you love watching horror films that make you laugh, stay away from this one!

Raaz 3
Is there something worse than an outright plagiarist? Perhaps someone unoriginal who doesn't realise the limits of their own skill? That is something Vikram Bhatt should seriously consider before he decides to let loose another half baked, corpse-like aatma on us.

Raaz 3
...an overwhelming film. At times a tad bit overproduced, the film is an onslaught of brilliant use of technology on the viewer's senses -- stunning cinematography, the fluidity of the camera, quick edits, loud soaring music, with the actors thrown into wild nature.

...isn't easy viewing but works thanks to Dhanush's powerful performance and A R Rahman's score.

...a hyperactive drama given to much yelling and little thought. The screenplay is weak, manipulative and every possible kind of lazy...

Raabta
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.

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.

Queen
...is a good entertainer, sure, but, more critically, it is a showcase for an actress poised to reign. This is one of those monumental moments when you feel the movies shift, and nothing remains the same. I've seen the future, baby, and it's Kangana.

Qarib Qarib Singlle
The subject of Qarib Qarib demanded a director with a natural talent for informality and offhandedness. Which is why Tanuja Chandra may strike you as a curious choice.

Qaidi Band
Qaidi Band's biggest undoing is its superficial treatment of a thought-provoking premise.

Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2
...this juvenile single-minded immaturity hurts the comedy. It hurts the writing. It hurts the characters. It hurts the film.

Pyaar Ka Punchnama 2
If it were crisper, with more thought put into its script, situations and dialogue, Pyaar Ka Punchnama would have made the cut.

Purani Jeans
Unabashedly sexist, regressive, poorly researched and lacking the punch a college romance film is supposed to pack...

Prince
All in all, this film is best avoided. Even Vivek Oberoi's ardent fans must give it a miss. They may no longer be his fans at the end of three hours.

Prem Ratan Dhan Payo
Quite a let down, given Barjatya’s greatest strength is the warmth his characters exude.

Prassthanam
Lack of hard-hitting sequences and a strong message makes the film falter.

Poorna
This movie is a perfect example of a city-bred director scanning our heartlands, and instead of taking in all the complexity, all the denseness, stopping to ask himself, "What are the corrections I can highlight in these lives, and how do I stitch together a narrative around these corrections?"
