One By Two
Debutante Devika's concept might look good on paper, but onscreen it dissipates like diarrhoea.

...Mr Ghai you're the maker of Kaalicharan, Vishwanath, Karz, Hero, Ram Lakhan, Karma, Pardes and Taal. Permit us to just rewind to your past glory.

Marudhar Express
...is an insipid amalgamation of multiple coming-of-age films weaved into one, but sans Roy Kapur’s personable screen presence, this life saga is one journey you wouldn’t regret not embarking on.

Bas Ek Tamanna
...this one is so full of melodrama, and takes so long to come to the point, it almost enervates you with its tedium.

Satya 2
...thrives on randomness and implausible ideas. This don is unconvincing, seeking no wrath or sympathy of the viewers.

Pranaam
In a different world, where the 80s era of long water-splashing shots and folks crying their hearts out for their kids' well-being at temples is still a hit, 'Pranaam' would have worked, and in a massive way. But this world is flawed, and so is this crime drama.

Life Express
...a confused attempt that doesnt know whether to celebrate the modern woman or condemn her.

Game
Too many loose ends and unanswered questions coupled with characters that completely lack a growth chart reduces Game to a mediocre watch, with predictable twists and turns.

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

LoveShhuda
Individually the boy and the girl aren't too bad but where is the chemistry between you, guys? You cannot ignite a spark here, leave alone a flame.

Dongri Ka Raja
To give it a little credit, the movie has a surprising feministic subtext in the love story but it gets diluted quickly. And all you’re left with are dozens and dozens of cat-and-mouse chases.

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.

It's a brave effort to create a lost world, but alas! Bollywood has marched miles ahead from the days of yore and yelldom.

Naughty @ 40
...how long can you suffer the silliness that masquerades neath the garb of this adult comedy? Or is it a juvenile comedy?

While Himesh remains an excellent music director, his acting skills will always remain largely a one-man belief: his own.

Yeh Khula Aasmaan
For a movie that's supposed to be inspirational, director (Gitanjali Sinha) gives us blah lines, lackluster story-telling - which is emotional at times, with an exhaustingly slow pace - weakening the script further.

Life Is Beautiful
...those who are obsessed with love stories, no matter how inconsequential or conventional they are, won't mind watching this one.

Teraa Surroor
Instead of mounting tension, which is crucial for this genre, the film is inundated with umpteen songs and romantic flashbacks that eventually kill the pace and continuity.

Raja Abroadiya
With an overkill of songs and a plot that has gaping holes when it comes to who loves whom and why, there is little in the film to appreciate.

Hume Tumse Pyaar Kitna
...is a few decades too late, as it reminds you of the era when Bollywood romanticised tales of creepily obsessive lovers. The climax, too, falls flat and the film offers nothing that you have not seen before in this genre.

Frankly speaking, the bachcha log might just prefer the play station any day. This one's no Jumanji.
