Pankaj Kapur, who visibly enjoys playing the ringmaster to this family circus, is the glue that holds Thode Door Thode Paas together, observes Deepa Gahlot.
Kaantha is a peculiar love letter to cinema that tries to integrate various genres and craft a riveting central dilemma with great eloquence and clarity, observes Arjun Menon.
It's good to see Huma Qureshi help create a film which is as charming as it is empowering, without taking on the stridency that so many women-oriented films invariably adopt, notes Deepa Gahlot.
Thamma is mostly entertaining and not grotesquely horror-inducing, observes Deepa Gahlot.
Made at a time when an insidious agenda can be read into it, Haq is an important film that deals with a contentious subject with maturity, observes Deepa Gahlot.

Bhagwat Chapter One: Raakshas: An average watch instead of a compelling nightmare, notes Mayur Sanap.
This turgid drama, solely designed to titillate male audiences, move from one hare-brained scene after another with intermittent over-acting, ear-splitting background music, and over-the-top dialoguebaazi, sighs Mayur Sanap.
In just five tightly packed episodes, Search: The Naina Murder Case takes you through a whirlwind of theories, emotions, and shocking revelations, making it a compelling Indian crime drama, notes Divya Nair.

Dwayne Johnson delivers a knockout in quite possibly the best role of his career, observes Mayur Sanap.
Sunny Sanskari Ki Tulsi Kumari is one of those mindless fluff kind of date movies, where there is no real conflict, lots of singing and dancing in fancy outfits (as brief as possible for the ladies), observes Deepa Gahlot.
The most beautiful aspect of Bad Girl is the way it delves into the mother and daughter relationship, observes Mayur Sanap.
What you get is a predictable, conventional story salvaged only by powerful performances from both the lead and the supporting cast, observes Divya Nair.
Because the four -- Kajol, Twinkle, Aamir and Salman -- have worked together in the past, their banter has the high spirits of a college reunion, observes Deepa Gahlot.
'Idli Kadai wears its heart on its sleeve, embracing nostalgia and roots with both hands. Dhanush is in top form as an actor and director here, mining most of the material,' recognises Arjun Menon.
The only saving grace is the title score by Amar Mohile, which injects some energy into this otherwise pointless attempt at a dark revenge drama, observes Divya Nair.
In the slot of rural poor, there are those who struggle to pull themselves out of crumbling hovels, and there are the Jamtara-like bunch who turn to crime. Neeraj Ghaywan's Homebound is about the former, whose quest for respect and dignity is thwarted because they are underprivileged, notes Deepa Gahlot.

Akshay Kumar, Arshad Warsi and Saurabh Shukla are in top form in Jolly LLB 3, applauds Deepa Gahlot.
Jugnuma has the unhurried pace of a stroll at dusk through the hills and the quiet delight in coming across jugnus (fireflies) twinkling in the trees, observes Deepa Gahlot.
The comedy is unfunny, the emotional bits are dubious and the music forgettable in Heer Express, observes Deepa Gahlot.

Sabar Bonda is a tender, and exquisitely crafted slice-of-life drama that taps into universal human desire of making a meaningful connection with another human being, observes Mayur Sanap.
Mirai is an ambitious, but lazily timid visual effects overkill that squanders away potential with an undercooked early draft screenplay that needed rework, notes Arjun Menon.
If it wasn't so violent, there would have been a few unintended laughs in Baaghi 4, but this one has not a shred of humour amidst the nonstop mayhem, observes Deepa Gahlot.
For a story about sweethearts and heartache, it's a pity that you will likely forget Love In Vietnam in a heartbeat, notes Mayur Sanap.
