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

Kismet Love Paisa Dilli
...is loaded with lewd jokes, and double-meaning dialogues. So if you're not a fan of the birds, bees and bathroom humour, stay away.

Sonali Cable
The film has a good concept but lacks the vibrancy and spirit of the city it is set in.

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.

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.

Direct Ishq
Despite having it all - romance, action, comedy, decent actors to convey those emotions, the film fails to hold your attention on various grounds.

War Chhod Na Yaar
There's an underlying tragedy that lies at the heart of this film but it gets overshadowed by too many childish gags.

Babloo Happy Hai
It's fairly entertaining but loses focus and wanders around aimlessly, just like its protagonists' road trip.

The Silent Heroes
It is hard to not lament over how lack of finesse killed a sturdy concept.

Days of Tafree
At the end of it, just like the professors, you too want to scream at these boys, saying, "I cannot tolerate this."

Bumper Draw
A simple take on surviving in Mumbai and true happiness - you won't mind watching this one unless moral stories really bug you.

Moods Of Crime
It is a pointless movie that reiterates how important crisp direction could prove for a thriller.

Mr. Kabaadi
The movie is a social satire and is funny only in parts, which are few and far between. But on the whole, it's a tedious watch.

A Strange Love Story
...an old-fashioned tale about spooks and spirits that takes so long to unfold, you lose patience, attention, interest...

Pairon Talle
There are moments where you empathize with the characters, and you're waiting for the idea to germinate, but it gets 'trampled' along the way.

Station
Ideally, this concept could have worked better for a short film or a play. Nonetheless, watch it for the nonlinear narrative.

Haseena Parkar
...a poorly written, acted and executed film that unintentionally victimises and thus justifies her warped sense of power under the pretext of 'protecting her family'.

332 Mumbai To India
...the film is a flat narration of an event with no attempt at character building and dramatic rendering.

F.A.L.T.U
The problem with F.A.L.T.U lies in its tone. It doesn't know whether to unfold as a full blown comedy or take itself seriously by providing some gyan on the education system.

Angry Young Man
Action junkies may not mind watching this one. For the rest, revisit Vijay Deenanath Chauhan instead.

Mumbai Central
As a journey of a woman's endurance and fighting spirit, Mumbai Central works. As the film, which makes Mumbai look like a monster, it doesn't. Too many inconsequential plot developments dilute the message somewhere.

Aao Wish Karein
The attempt is to create a desi Big, but Aftab's no Tom Hank's and Mr Baretto's no Penny Marshal.

Dus Tola
The problem with Dus Tola is its archaic story which simply doesn't connect with the new age audience.
