There are plenty of spine chilling moments which will keep you on the edge of your seats. If you have watched Insidious and The Shinning then this film won't scare you a bit. That's what happened to me.

Read the full reviewBollywood Diaries is a good attempt but fails to pack a solid punch.
Read the full reviewIn a nutshell, Sher Dil is basically all superheroes combined. Sadly, the character is so magnanimous that no film can do justice to it.
Read the full reviewFuddu may not be a great film but it's better than all those Bollywood movies which make oodles of money but have no story.
Read the full reviewJohn Abraham is impressive in Attack. Sadly, the story is not. But what lets him down is the story and the visual effects.

Read the full reviewWe are sure all Sunny Leone fans are going to throng the theatres irrespective of what we say.
Read the full reviewSajid Khan's new film isn't as funny and entertaining as Housefull or Housefull 2 however it wouldn't hurt if you watch it once. But keep your brains aside and I am sure you'll have fun.
Read the full reviewI went in with too much expectations came out disappointed. So if you're planning to watch this film at all then don't expect anything and maybe you won't regret walking into the theater!
Read the full reviewWhile the original got registers jingling down South, the Hindi version too isn't bad at all. It's a typical Bollywood masala film which has all the ingredients to entertain you - naach-gaana, romance, action and comedy!

Read the full reviewThey look good together and can certainly act. While the Pakistani actress is absolutely stunning (even before the makeover), Harsh flaunts his chiseled body whenever he can in the film.
Read the full reviewLaal Rang does not pack a solid punch because of its choppy storyline. Also, since the film is set in the heartland of Haryana, all the characters speak in Haryanvi, which after a point becomes too much.
Read the full reviewOverall, Nil Battey Sannata throws light not only the endearing mother-daughter relationship but also subtly explores issues like poverty and education.
Read the full reviewSharman Joshi has been trying to experiment with different kinds of films but his strategy doesn't seem to be working. He is a terrific actor but needs to very cautious while choosing scripts.
Read the full reviewHaving said that, Phobia is undeniably a well-made thriller worth watching only in theatres. Kripalani does a fine job as director and gives us a compelling narrative which may not appease to the regular Bollywood audience.
Read the full reviewGive this film a miss and thank me later. As for Deepak Tijori, I guess he will have to wait a little longer before he tastes success as a filmmaker.
Read the full reviewGreat Grand Masti is neither great nor grand, and it doesn't have any masti elements either, warns Namrata Thakker.
Read the full reviewThe Bhatts are known for creating romantic chartbusters even if their movies don't pass muster. Do yourself a favour: Skip this Jalebi.
Read the full reviewThe second half did seem a bit slow in comparison to the first. Also, the back story of how Chotu loses his eyesight is hard to understand. The makers could have worked more in that area.
