M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story

M.S. Dhoni: The Untold Story

2016 · BookMyShow · Sep 2016

It doesn't matter if you follow cricket or not as Mahendra Singh Dhoni's journey is inspiring, to say the least. The man comes from a humble background and defied all odds to etch his name in the history of Indian cricket. You'll also get to relive the two World Cup wins under Dhoni's captaincy- those moments will definitely make you chant 'India, India' once again. And you won't be alone!

Parched

Parched

2016 · BookMyShow · Sep 2016

In spite of its flaws, Parched manages to win your heart. It's not the typical run-of-the-mill Bollywood movie. The exchanges between the leading ladies will make you smile. It's also great to see how women from the village break free to live life on their own terms. Bollywood movies could easily do with more characters like Rani and Lajjo.

Banjo

Banjo

2016 · BookMyShow · Sep 2016

Banjo is a feel-good film with great music and performances. Riteish Deshmukh is more than paisa-wasool.

Akira

Akira

2016 · BookMyShow · Sep 2016

If you are tired of seeing Chulbul Pandey, Singham, and other alpha-male characters on screen, go meet Akira at the cinemas. She's feisty, strong-headed, yet lovable. This is easily Sonakshi Sinha's best work after Lootera and the film is a must-watch, during this long weekend.

Rustom

Rustom

2016 · BookMyShow · Aug 2016

Knowing that the whole story is just Google search away, the writers introduce subplots to keep things interesting. Until the last 20 minutes of the film, you're as clueless as the jury members, who can't figure out whether the accused is guilty or not.

The Legend of Michael Mishra

The Legend of Michael Mishra

2016 · BookMyShow · Aug 2016

The Legend of Michael Mishra is not for everyone. If you loved Bollywood films that released two decades ago, you'd probably like the movie. Otherwise, the two Hollywood releases, Jason Bourne and Suicide Squad are far more entertaining.

Madaari

Madaari

2016 · BookMyShow · Jul 2016

Madaari was made with the noble intention of showcasing why the public needs to fight against the corrupt system. But somewhere, it gets lost in trying to be a suspense thriller. It's not as good as Kamat's Mumbai Meri Jaan or Drishyam, but is still the best Hindi film to watch this weekend.

Dhanak

Dhanak

2016 · BookMyShow · Jun 2016

Dhanak proves that you don't need to have an A-list star, shoot in foreign locations or spend huge amounts of money to make a good movie. In the recent past, there have been very few Bollywood movies that made you leave the theatre with a smile. Dhanak manages to do so and that's a good enough reason for you to watch it this weekend.

Traffic

Traffic

2016 · BookMyShow · May 2016

Nil Battey Sannata

Nil Battey Sannata

2016 · BookMyShow · Apr 2016

London Has Fallen

London Has Fallen

2016 · BookMyShow · Mar 2016

London Has Fallen is one of those mindless action films that shouldn't be taken too seriously. Don't look for logic here and simply enjoy ninety minutes of high octane action.

Spotlight

Spotlight

2016 · BookMyShow · Feb 2016

Spotlight is not for everyone. It's a serious film that deals with a serious issue, and it does justice to it. For the performances alone, the movie is worth a watch.

Neerja

Neerja

2016 · BookMyShow · Feb 2016

Neerja has a lot going for it. The brilliant direction and the superb performances are its strongest points. This weekend, make it a point to catch this incredible film. Also, if you haven't read up on Neerja Bhanot yet, don't do so now, and let this film take you by surprise.

Mastizaade

Mastizaade

2016 · BookMyShow · Jan 2016

Mastizaade is not a film for everyone. The plot lacks logic and the jokes will make you cringe. Having said that, if you love slapstick humor and Sunny Leone, this film will surely entertain you.

Airlift

Airlift

2016 · BookMyShow · Jan 2016

Airlift is one of Akshay Kumar's best works. The actor carries the film on his shoulders and his performance is one of its highlights. Also, the film is a gripping portrayal of the biggest human evacuation in history. The plight of the helpless refugees comes across on screen, and if you're heading to the movies this weekend, make Airlift your first choice.

Charlie Ke Chakkar Mein

Charlie Ke Chakkar Mein

2015 · BookMyShow · Nov 2015

Burnt

Burnt

2015 · BookMyShow · Oct 2015

Even though the movie has a lot going for it, Burnt's biggest problem is probably the story. The writers introduce too many subplots and characters, which seem unnecessary. If they had just focused on Adam and his goals, the movie would have had a stronger impact.
