Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey
...fails to grasp your attention or convince you to invest our emotions. Which is a shame considering the potential of this story that's unique in so many ways and encapsulates a range of developments.

Madras Cafe
While one would like to like this movie, it’s an uphill task, with convoluted story-telling, out-of-sorts dialogue, no new perspective on an event that happened years ago, and placid acting.

Darr @The Mall
...if you’re in the mood for a decent horror flick that has an equal number of spooky and dry moments, you won’t mind this one.

Ghayal Once Again
The film is earnest and has a few genuine, emotional moments, but is defeated by an outmoded viewpoint and look.

Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge
...a campus film that's not spectacular, but not bad either.

Raat Gayi Baat Gayi
Go ahead, enjoy this slice-of life movie that may not completely convince and does take time to unfold, but will leave you smiling anyway.

City Of Gold
One can call the film somewhat gripping, but hardly one that explores the mill worker’s tribulations with an honest heart.

Not A Love Story
...the film is no great shakes. But it's an alright thriller with a few moments that definitely unnerve you.

Ready
Salman shirtless: check. Younger heroine: check. Couple of whistle-worthy songs: check. Hero beating up baddies to pulp: check. Result: the Salman Khan masala movie.

Shaadi Ke Side Effects
With a take on relationships that starts off as modern, but cops-out; it’s the humour and performances that are worth savouring.

Baby
The film is full of improbable developments, convenient cinematic license and absurd portions. The only redeeming features are the ensemble cast, a few engaging action portions and a fast-paced second half.

Pyaar Impossible
...average watch, largely elevated by Priyanka Chopra’s performance and zillion-dollar look.

Bajatey Raho
This is simply a weaker version of Khosla Ka Ghosla and countless other 'Delhi' films.

Miss Lovely
...the subject and style is far more absorbing than the film. Too bad, really!

Action Jackson
The film is worth a watch strictly for the cast and the songs. That’s if you’re willing to endure the unbelievably long and violent film for that.

Gali Gali Chor Hai
The purpose of a satire is not just to make you laugh, but in using the humour to communicate a more vital and pertinent thought. In that context, Gali Gali Chor Hai is too shallow to qualify as a real satire.

10ml Love
Though the film seems slightly amateurish and theatrical in its treatment in the beginning, it soon gets a good grip and keeps you engaged.

Kick
...what you get is an archetypal Salman film with the regular cliches, and a few moments of, err, kick.

Fitoor
If you love Great Expectations, keep no expectations from this one. Else, be prepared to entranced by the visual splendor of the movie, and be disappointed by the lack of emotional connect.

Chaarfutiya Chhokare
This could have been a better movie with more conviction and imagination.

Azhar
There is an attempt to showcase the grey shades of the central character, but the film majorly cops-out in the end.

Holiday
The lead actors do well in their parts, and their pairing will possibly be a draw. But with such weak characterization and soppy romance, even their electric onscreen chemistry is diluted.

Badlapur Boys
Worth a watch if you don’t mind the insinuated ‘80s style melodrama and the simplistic storytelling.

Atithi Tum Kab Jaoge?
The central flaw with the film is its failure to evoke sympathy for the central characters. Having suffered unbearable guests themselves, most viewers will find Chachaji’s antics harmless; even amusing.

Mirch
...a reasonably fun film about infidelity that's neither chauvinist nor feminist, or perhaps both!

Hawaizaada
...barring the film's story and a few immersing scenes, all you have is characters you don't emotionally invest in, bizarre dialogue, and a lifeless romance. That's unfortunate indeed, as this story was rich with possibilities.

...if you can forgive the director’s `filmy’ take on terrorism and can enjoy the thrilling moments and superb performances nevertheless.
