Zila Ghaziabad
If judgmental, one could be deeply offended by the unstopped flow of aggression and profanity. However, if in a lenient mind-space, the bloody battle for indeterminate causes could provide some amount of lowbrow fun.

Na Ghar Ke Na Ghaat Ke
Funny at times, crude at others, it's a decent watch if you're willing to forgive the implausible finale.

Jodi Breakers
The story is told with the zest it deserves and is enhanced by the sparkling dialogue. Sadly, the director has a messed-up second half on his hands. Still, worth your while for the unusual story, interesting coupling, and the irreverent humour.

Rocket Singh
After Ab Tak Chhappan and Chak De India, this is director Shimit Amin’s weakest film thus far.

Dum Maaro Dum
...worth a watch for the peek into the seamier side of Goa; but expecting anything other than Bollywood style thrills and chases will leave you disappointed.

Chala Mussaddi - Office Office
This one is about average—watchable mainly for the characters we've grown to love and the fab performances.

Raajneeti
The film is too long, and the second half is inexplicably stretched. In true Bollywood fashion, politics is elevated to an exalted, unattainable status, and the many dialogues, beginning with Raajneeti mein..., get utterly tiresome.

Bodyguard
...is endurable (and I say this without any condescension) for those who can forgive the haphazard story and be happy enjoying the songs and watching Salman and Kareena onscreen.

Babloo Happy Hai
...for the sincere performances and the topical subject of the film, one could sample this without expecting too much.

Uvaa
...the film talks about women's rights while including these sexist elements, and gives a muddled message. However, the film redeems itself to an extent by the story it chooses...

Heroine
Madhur Bhandarkar holds on to his Fashion formula, fearing to deviate and let go.

The Xpose
You can watch the film for the visual chutzpah, a sprinkling of interesting behind-the-scenes moments, and the intermittent unintentional laugh. But honestly, enduring the rest of the film for that, is a stretch.

Once Upon A Time In Mumbai Dobaara
...it’s a melange of inflated dialogue desperate for applause, an unconvincing story, and love triangle we don’t really care for.

Ab Tak Chhappan 2
Patekar's strong performance is the film's highlight. He's masterful, but let down by a simplistic, cliched take on the story.

Rocky Handsome
But a film can work only if the viewer is emotionally invested in the character and their journey. That’s the reason Rocky Handsome doesn’t work neither as an emotional drama nor an action flick.

Hate Story
...the film is not the sleaze-fest the promos led you to believe it was. Now that can be a respite or, a disappointment depending on which side of the fence you’re on.

Ramaiya Vastavaiya
Watch if you'd like to revisit an '80s style romance with the songs, dances, humour and melodrama all mixed in.

Gabbar Is Back
This is a low-brow, gimmicky film that capitalizes on one of Hindi film's most iconic villains, and more unforgivably, on the aam junta's frustrations with the system.

Crazy Cukkad Family
With the premise it had, the film certainly could have been far funnier and crazier.

Go for it, only if you find the Ajay Devgn-Salman Khan Jodi irresistible.

Cocktail
The film is well-packaged and looks good. But the story disappoints. Humour is consistent but not as funny as in other rom-coms.

Chatur Singh Two Star
With a damp plot, sparse laughter-generating moments, and the character of Chatur Singh not endearing or memorable enough, the film barely chugs along.
