Inkaar
Polished-looking, its edges - the tension of feeling harassed at work, office politics, ego flashes - hold rather well. But its centre collapses in a soft mess.

Mumbai Mirror
The film has a lot of Dabangg-isms, with too many brutal killings - random and ruthless and glaring flaws in the first half. Though the second half sums up the suspense - blood soaked in tragic truths and raw realities.

Gangoobai
...doesn't sweep your heart away, but leaves you with some sweet, feel-good moments.

Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola
...this movie could have been so much more. Like champagne gone flat, the film's left lying about for too late, its plot meandering everywhere, the director so determined to have fun that often, the viewer doesn't.

Meri Shadi Karao
While the film isn't revolting or something equally bad, there's nothing much for you to get entertained by either.

Dehraadun Diary
With poor production values, a crumbling script and blah performances, director Milind Ukey fails to move, inspire or instigate at any level.

Rajdhani Express
...has a thought-provoking premise but the execution fails miserably.

Table No. 21
The first half is slow-paced, as a thriller it has its flaws, the direction isn't really superlative, but post-interval it spins into another zone and the climax hits home.

Hansa
...proves that small, independent films need not be abstract or grim to make an impression.

The Last Act
With a unique concept at hand and an all-new directors' gang, getting the 'act together' is no mean feat. Team of 12 - Take a bow, this stage is all yours.

10ml Love
...a short, lighthearted film. It's a decent watch, provided you don't expect great humour.

Khiladi 786
For those looking for some logic-less laughtime, groovy tunes topped with some todh-podh - this one could bring some action to your weekend.

Talaash
...has the mystique of the cinema Raj Khosla; it is modern in its approach and the setting is contemporary.

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

Son Of Sardaar
This is a mass-entertainer, strung together with a series of Santa-Banta jokes, spiked solidly with macho sardaarisms.

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.

Keymon & Nani in Space Adventure
Barring few insignificant dull moments, lead character Keymon is indeed a dude.

Future To Bright Hai Ji
The film would have worked better as a sentimental drama. Were it not for the forced humour, the film wouldn't be as forgettable.

Luv Shuv Tey Chicken Khurana
This isn't the perfect chicken recipe for your soul, but never mind, it's the simplicity of emotions that fill you up, leaving a good after-taste.

Sons of Ram
...grips you mainly because of the detailed narration and unraveling of various lesser-known facts and figurines from Ramayana. The animation is good, but we've seen better strokes and more stunning visuals in recently released films.

Rush
...no amount of lip gloss, nor shiny suits can hide poor acting, which Rush features plenty of.

Ajab Gazabb Love
This film is all about a bunch of people going bananas, yet, it doesn't leave you in splits.

Chakravyuh
...is a hard film to make and marks must be given to Jha for sticking his neck out. Staying true to the subject, he gives us an insight into uncomfortable truths happening in our backyard.

Shudra The Rising
...a heart-breaking film. It's emotionally disturbing as all you watch is pain and suffering.

Student Of The Year
You may not like this movie if bubble-gum romances, picture-perfect worlds and candy-floss clouds are not your idea of a movie-going experience.
