War movie review: Hrithik vs Tiger battle a visual delight sans gripping screenplay

War movie review: Hrithik vs Tiger battle a visual delight sans gripping screenplay

Abbas Tyrewala's heavy-duty dialogues with thumping background score by Sanchit Balhara and Ankit Balhara manage to reek attention but only at times.

The Zoya Factor movie review: Works in fits and starts

Sonam Kapoor Ahuja and Dulquer Salmaan's 'The Zoya Factor' largely retains the core of Anuja Chauhan's chick-lit bestseller of the same name, and also the book's overall feel-good, fairytale vibes.

Section 375 movie review: Akshaye Khanna shines in relevant film

"Section 375" brings back the subject of rape on the Bollywood screen, quite unlike it has ever been done before, and with rare profundity.

Saaho movie review: Prabhas' big bang theory goes bust

The film, however, repeats the same mistakes the masala movie has forever been accused of making.

The Kitchen movie review: A mediocre underbelly tale

The Kitchen movie review: A mediocre underbelly tale

It is a light-but-not-really-comic drama of three women who become masters of their hellbent fate and the underworld after their husbands are disposed of to jail after being nabbed for attempted robbery.

The total packaging of the film keeps you glued to the screen in spite of the fact that the concept is borrowed from various films of its genre.

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood movie review: A slow-burn nostalgia

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood movie review: A slow-burn nostalgia

The film is masterfully shot, written and directed but its narrative is uneven, and unwieldy in its structure with plenty of flat patches.

'Mission Mangal' movie review: Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan star in an ordinary film about an extraordinary feat

'Mission Mangal' movie review: Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan star in an ordinary film about an extraordinary feat

For Akshay Kumar, this is a very different nationalist hero. 'Mission Mangal' is a feel-good toast girl power, and the fact is an advantage for its female cast. Vidya Balan, Sonakshi Sinha, Taapsee Pannu, Kirti Kulhari and Nithya Menen get well-crafted roles that fit seamlessly to give the film its multi-starrer entirety.

'Barot House' review: Chilling if you stop disbelieving

Let alone reach the dark peaks of Robert Altman's classic, 'Barot House' struggles with budgetary constraints and limitations of imagination. Both deficiencies clearly show up in the end product.

Khandaani Shafakhana movie review: Message in a Mess

Khandaani Shafakhana movie review: Message in a Mess

"Khandaani Shafakhana" betrays most flaws that efforts of debutant directors in Bollywood normally do. Hopefully, Shilpi Dasgupta will give us a better second film.

'Arjun Patiala' movie review: Kriti Sanon and Diljit Dosanjh's film is a huge letdown

'Arjun Patiala' movie review: Kriti Sanon and Diljit Dosanjh's film is a huge letdown

Overall, this film had the potential to be a good comic caper. Trite humour, and a hackneyed and lazily-crafted plot, spells doom for 'Arjun Patiala'.

The film could have been more exciting, although it does manages to entertain and engage as long as as long the action scenes unfold.

Family Of Thakurganj movie review: Familiar hang-ups

Family Of Thakurganj movie review: Familiar hang-ups

By turns, the film seems like a grim gangland saga that inadvertently becomes funny, and an attempted spoof of a gangland saga that is far from funny.

Super 30 movie review: Hrithik Roshan delivers a knock-out performance as math wiz Anand Kumar

Watch the film for the heart touching and gripping story it presents. Hrithik as a mathematician has played his role with much sincerity and has done a commendable job. Overall, his excellent performance made 'Super30' a delight to watch.
