Great Grand Masti
Crudity, vulgarity, titillation, infantility is all one expected but also hoped against hope for it to deliver a few risqué laughs. No such luck. Banal and boring is all you get.

Grand Masti
...nothing more than cheap revelry that can be watched only for some corny jokes.

Gour Hari Dastaan
It is kind of film that quietly cleanses the dust that has collected on our idea of freedom. What we are, what we have become.

Good Newwz
A damper of morality and manipulation after an uninhibited and irrepressibly refreshing start.

...Akshay Kumar is insisting on being the Neo Mr Bharat, film after film, that is now beginning to bore and grate. Someone please rescue him from being the inspirational conscience keeper of contemporary shining India and take him back to entertainment, entertainment, entertainment.

Go Goa Gone
Neither here or there. It’s not art house. But it’s not entirely mainstream either. It’s not a satisfying zombie film. It’s not a full on comedy either.

Global Baba
...a biting recreation of the world of god men, perfectly well-timed considering the goings-on around us these days.

Gippi
The way it pans out it reminds us of producer Karan Johar’s 2012 hit Student Of The Year. Only, the bling factor is a little diminished. It raises relevant points but the innocence or the lack of it seems manufactured.

...though it is fun as you watch it unfold, it is also mostly forgettable, offering us very few moments to hold on to.

Gangs Of Wasseypur 2
You might wish it had a deeper emotional core or some meaning but Kashyap just wants to leave his fingerprints over every frame without judging who’s right and who’s wrong.

Gangs Of Wasseypur
All that coolth and pop realism may do well with the die hard Kashyap cult but for the rest of us who paid to watch a bloody saga of revenge, it seems like a long wait at the circus.

Gali Guleiyan
The film is a fine study of deteriorating places, people, relationships, families, neighbourhoods, communities and human minds with the one aerial shot at the end capturing it all economically.

Gabbar Is Back
It has come at a time when the remake business has touched a plateau. Had it come in its infancy, Gabbar would not have sounded like babble.

Fukrey Returns
The quirky characters and their oddball humour is again the mainstay even as the thin plot gets stretched to its utmost limits. You want the things to come to a closure fast even as they drag on and on with one laboured situation piling atop another.

Fukrey
...may not be laugh-out-loud funny as Delhi Belly, but the charming subtleties, detail to character and credibility of milieu makes it one hell of a ride.

Fugly
In trying to be candid, the language becomes crass. In trying to be funny, the emotions feel manufactured.

Freaky Ali
...is predictable to the core replete with every cliché of a typical sports film that you can possibly think of and, is marked by old fashioned story-telling and over the top, slapstick humour.

Force 2
...Abhinay Deo doesn’t want us to put the thinking cap on. He just wants to please us with long chases and car crashes, bullets and blood, the views of Chain Bridge and Hero’s Square in Budapest.

Fitoor
...wants desperately to be a grand, epic romance but depends way too much on its stunning Kashmir canvas to achieve that than characters and story that you can empathise with.

Finding Fanny
It shows us the shapes unrequited love can take. It is this twitchy feeling that makes this screwball comedy special.

Using magical realism Kapoor deals with deep-seated human quandaries in a light-hearted fashion but ultimately fails to realise the potential of the subject.

Fanney Khan
Despite the presence of a heavy duty cast, the film is just not able to fly. So bogged down does it get with its predictable arc and overt sense of righteousness that it ends up flat and deadening; silly rather than scintillating.

Fan
...SRK couldn’t have found a better vehicle than Fan, both as an actor and as a celebration of the highs and the lows of his own stardom.

Evening Shadows
The intentions may be well-placed but the outcome is a series of loud and tired cliches, which permeate the film so deeply that the subject of homosexuality appears to be the only “original” aspect of it.

After showing traces of wicked humour, it is reduced to nothing more than a rich source of PJs.

Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami
If you are willing to suspend disbelief for the outrageous second half after a realistic first, you might just dig this heart warming ode to the common man.

Ekk Deewana Tha
Even if you dont mind the lack of detailing, you cant avoid the potholes in the script. As we wait for Jessie to make up her mind, the film loses its coherence.
