There are so many ideas here about writing, sexual desire, fantasy, hypocrisy, the artist in the marketplace but they remain unexplored. Mastram is an opportunity lost.

While Hawaa Hawaai isn’t entirely satisfying, I still recommend that you see it. It is a timely reminder of the intractable horrors that children in this country face on a daily basis.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 works in fits and starts. I recommend that you watch it for its gorgeous leads but have patience – it’s long and in places, not entirely amazing.

Kya Dilli Kya Lahore demands that we stay interested in only two actors for almost two hours. Under any circumstances, that’s a tall order.

Samrat & Co. is an intriguingly amateurish murder mystery in which Rajeev Khandelwal plays a Sherlock Holmes style detective. These are puzzles that even Samrat wouldn’t be able to solve.

If you like uplifting, cheerful cinema then this isn’t the movie for you. But if like me, you can enjoy bad people doing bad things, then Revolver Rani is fun.

The film feels like Nolan lite. Which is a shame given the talent attached.

Dekh Tamasha Dekh offers a combination of farcical, funny and depressing. How many movies can you say that for?

Ultimately 2 States is unwieldy and disappointing.

If The Hunger Games had never happened, then perhaps Divergent would have been a more compelling experience. But this film treads on much of the same ground – dystopian future, gutsy, teenage warrior heroine, dueling factions, an ominous, omnipresent Big Brother style government. Divergent ticks off all the boxes but with far less panache.
