Bhoot And Friends Review - Ridiculously childish

Okay, so we have one more 'kiddie film' hoping to catch the audience attention this Friday, after the watchable Toonpur Ka Superrhero last week and the avoidable Rama – The Saviour a few weeks ago. I must confess, when I first

Isi Life Mein Review: a major let down

While surfing television the other day, I chanced upon this hugely popular show that has a nonconforming storyline of two women vying for the same man's attention. One happens to be his sweetheart turned wife, the other, his ex wife, who,

Toonpur Ka Superrhero Review: delightful kiddie movie

Frankly speaking, there's zilch hype for Toonpur Ka Superrhero. Even though its principal stars, Ajay Devgn and Kajol, have gone out of their way to promote their new film, even though Eros has left no stone unturned to promote the film,

Tees Maar Khan Review: full-on masala flick

Main Hoon Na and Om Shanti Om were smashing tributes to the wholesome entertainers of 1970s, Farah Khan's brand new outing Tees Maar Khan will make the most absurd, bizarre and wacky cinema of yore pale in comparison. Not just your

Payback Review: comes down like a house of cards

Recall Is Raat Ki Subah Nahin. The turn of events in a single night kept you on tenterhooks all through the film. Payback has a different plot line, but like Is Raat Ki Subah Nahin, the story unfolds in one night.

332 Mumbai To India - Review

More and more film-makers are borrowing stories from real life. Giving shape to stories or incidents they believe in. Stories that provoke thinking and divert your attention towards issues that we otherwise brush aside. Director Mahesh Pandey's 332 - Mumbai To

Kaalo Review - An interesting watch

Was just wondering the other day, why do [most] Hindi films that tackle the horror genre don't really succeed in their endeavour of scaring the viewer? I mean, real stories concerning supernatural forces continue to make the rounds to this date

Mirch Review - Falls short of expectations

The promotions of Mirch had suddenly caught one's eye, thanks to its attention-grabbing promos, which are full of love-making scenes. You are forewarned at the outset that this film talks of four adulterous people. But the question is, haven't we watched

Band Baaja Baaraat Review: Extremely entertaining

The girl is strong-minded, unwavering and focused. The boy has no aspirations in life and is typically interested in having a ball. Two conflicting characters. Band Baaja Baaraat parks its plot within the 'opposites attract' blueprint, a theme common to numerous

No Problem Review – Full of problems

The one thing I've observed in Anees Bazmee's movies is that the plotline may be bizarre and outlandish, but each of his films has stood tall on the entertainment quotient. Perhaps, that's one of the reasons why his movies have struck

Rakta Charitra 2 Review - Engrossing and gripping

Brutality has a new name and it's called Rakta Charitra. The first part was gruesome. The second part, well, is not as violent, but is a bloodbath nonetheless. I don't think Hindi cinema has ever witnessed such gruesome murders, such manslaughter

Phas Gaye Re Obama Review – Little gem

What's the recipe for a winning motion picture? A gigantic financial plan? Striking locales? A mammoth star cast? Strictly going by the number of low cost films that found tremendous appreciation, it reiterates and restates the fact that content always reigns

Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey Review: Enlightening experience

Adapting a work of literature into a movie is an arduous task. Satyajit Ray's 'Apu Trilogy' (Pather Panchali, Aparajito and Apur Sansar) was based on two Bengali novels written by Bibhuthibhushan Bandopadhyay. Ray's Shatranj Ke Khiladi was based on Munshi Premchand's

Allah Ke Banday Review – A gritty dark film

"Allah Ke Banday pays homage to all the kids exposed to offense, misdeeds and crime," debutant director Faruk Kabir told me when he screened the first promo of his film for me. In times when senseless comedies, rom-coms and thrillers are

Break Ke Baad Review- fails to connect

Aditya Chopra's Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, Karan Johar's Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Farhan Akhtar's Dil Chahta Hai continue to inspire and motivate film-makers to this date. Danish Aslam's debut film Break Ke Baad borrows from the above-mentioned films, besides Imtiaz
