Badlapur
Brisk and absorbing, concluding differently than expected, Badlapur is an inspired film that dangerously attempts to change the landscape of the thriller genre in Bollywood.

Khamoshiyan
...you nod in affirmative to Ali Fazal's reaction when the mystery is unveiled. "What nonsense is this!" says he. You want to tell him, "Thank you for summing up the film for us.

Hawaizaada
On one level, Hawaizaada works because this story about India's unsung hero needs to find its place. But this realm depends heavily on performances - the histrionics could be several notches higher.

Rahasya
As far as execution is concerned, while the unhurried unfolding of mystery adds depth to the film, it also demands patience from the viewers, which may or may not work in its favour.

Dolly Ki Doli
...is simple and refreshing. It's filled with some laughable moments, hilarious performances and quirky characters.

Baby
Balancing characters, conspiracies and cities, director Neeraj Pandey admirably keeps Baby rich, yet tight, researched, non-sentimental and steely-eyed.

Sharafat Gayi Tel Lene
...the story had potential, but lacks chutzpah in its making. Too much of sharafat and no play makes it a dull watch.

Crazy Cukkad Family
...what puts a break on this potentially quirky laughter ride is its predictable story.

Alone
...the limited expertise of director Bhushan Patel and actress Bipasha Basu - in spite of their many ventures in this genre - allows Alone to deliver only superficial chills.

Amit makes a smooth progression from 30-second commercials to a 159-minute-long film.

Take It Easy
The film tries too hard to hold you emotionally. If only the makers took it easy, this one could have been a winner.

Ugly
...what makes Ugly tick is the searing honesty with which it is told. It's not for the faint-hearted, but for those who are willing to let the morally decrepit live.

Badlapur Boys
While predictability of the plot can be forgiven since most sports-based films are about underdogs emerging victorious, the story must strike a chord with the audience, which doesn't happen here.

Sulemani Keeda
The film rises in straight scenes focusing on pretentious Gonzo and the pitiable writers. It wobbles elsewhere, with crudities that don't amuse...

Zid
The performances are forgettable and flaws scream out loud. The climax tries to shock, but leaves you shaken and wondering - whose zid was this anyway?

Ungli
The film points a finger at our society, and rightly so. But much of the film is pointless too.

Zed Plus
The subject matter could have been interesting but it is mired in tedious, very boring, rural and regional cliches that audiences have already seen, so many times.

Titoo MBA
What really keeps this movie trundling along are the surprisingly refreshing performances from the lead pair.
