Jalebi
What could have been an interesting and quirky train ride turns into a sappy, emotional tear-filled journey that seems like it will go on forever.

Jal
The story scatters often like a fistful of sand, yet, for those seeking something different, go quench your thirst.

Jail
Kudos to Bhandarkar for taking an ekdum different take on the notorious Indian jail.

Jai Mummy Di
...only works to a certain degree because of the glam factor and some of its hummable musical content, rest is just bland and boring.

Jai Ho! Democracy
With a talented cast at its disposal and even a decent plot, it's a shame that the film fails to capitalise on either.

Jai Ho
Like most Salman Khan films, this one too rests solely on his undeniable superstardom.

Jacqueline I Am Coming
...works and survives despite its lengthy narrative solely because of Yadav’s heart-wrenching performance.

Jackpot
...one of Jackpot's few redeeming factors here is that it moves along quickly.

Jack And Dil
Unless these three otherwise bearably good artistes have big debts to clear, I don’t see a reason as to why anyone in their right minds would say yes to a chaotic rom-com like ‘Jack & Dil’.

Jabariya Jodi
...starts on a promising note, but loses steam along the way. It tries to throw light on serious issues with lighter moments, but gets tangled in a melodramatic and unrealistic narrative that doesn’t feel all that jabardust.

Jab Tak Hai Jaan
...has the stamp of the man who made some of the best romantic fare in Bollywood.

Jab Harry Met Sejal
The script is wafer-thin and it’s been done to death by none other than Imtiaz Ali in each of his earlier films—be it Jab We Met, Cocktail or the recent Tamasha. It’s the routine girl is engaged elsewhere story but she discovers half-way through the film that she is actually attracted to someone else.

Jaanisaar
...it's a case of cinematic self-indulgence that doesn't deserve to be compared to Ali's masterpiece Umrao Jaan.

Jaane Kahan Se Aayi Hai
The film may not boast of a great story, a scintillating script, but it has enough to keep you smiling.

Ittefaq
...is not a taut thriller that you expect it to be. But if patience is your asset, this unhurried suspense drama can be watched for Akshaye Khanna's crackling screen presence, acting prowess and sublime charm.

It's Rocking - Dard-E-Disco
Not a single element of Dard-e-Disco is 'rocking'. From songs that are totally unnecessary, jokes that are not funny, performances which are painfully over-the-top, sub-plots meaningless....the film drags to death, leading to nowhere.

It's a Wonderful Afterlife
It's a Wonderful Afterlife could have...would have...should have...but all it does is end up as average fare: Indian curry yes, yet minus the tangy flavour.

Island City
...this one deserves to be watched for its riveting take on love, longing and loneliness.

Isi Life Mein
...the film unfolds as one long play rehearsal and doesn't seem to move forward after a point. The relationship between the big city boy and the small town girl is confined to an exchange of smiles and smiles and some more smiles: too many cold exchanges between the two debutants.

Ishqiya
...the film is a sutli bomb (firecracker) that tickles and explodes. But for the hurried and harried end. Go, have a blast.

Ishqeria
At a time when relatable love stories rule the roost, this one seems like a repackaged cheesy 90s flick.

Ishq Ke Parindey
This one has a Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak hangover. If you don't mind traditional love stories and do not find them outdated, you can watch one.

Ishq Forever
Lack of originality and the cliche-laden script can be forgiven, provided the chemistry between the lead couple ticks. Sadly, it doesn't so the scenes fall flat.
