Haiwaan
Akshay Kumar and Saif Ali Khan deliver a riveting thriller that engages audiences with its taut narrative and strong performances from the lead pair.

Jawaani Jaaneman
Watch it for Saif Ali Khan's performance, it is sure to give all the 90s kids major nostalgia, an actor who ages like fine wine and is capable of playing himself in his biopic someday. Also, watch it for Alaya F and Tabu, there are no two other actors who could have played their roles with such ease.

Joker
Joker is a statement on society and perspective. It claims everyone has their side of the story. Truth is the one you chose to believe in.

Saaho is a rank disappointment and an opportunity missed. Watch it for Prabhas's patches of brilliance but you will need loads of patience!

It is an inspirational tale, but not a masterpiece. Watch it for Vidya and Akshay's patches of brilliance.

The Lion King
The child in me was too excited but as an adult I was left wanting for a little more than what I witnessed. 'Hakuna Matata' take your child or inner child along while watching the film!

Baazaar
...the film hits an emotional plateau. It fails to make you feel deeply for its characters. You wish you had a tear for at least one of them. Had that happened, Baazaar would be considered a much better investment...If powerplay and money matters interest you, watch Baazaar.

Paltan
Paltan is definitely worth a watch as it relives India's 1967 triumph over China and rouses our patriotic feelings.

Vishwaroop 2
Vishwaroop 2 boasts of some great cameos by Shekhar Kapur, Waheeda Rahman and Jaideep Ahlawat but they are so good in whatever little screen-time they have got that sometimes you feel they are wasted in the film. The spy-thriller doesn't rely much on jingoism, though, which is a relief.

Mission: Impossible – Fallout
With a script that does justice to its larger-than-life scenario, heart-racing action stunts and good performances, Fallout is certainly right up there with some of the best instalments in the movie franchise.

Lust Stories
In Lust Stories, the directors have a huge field to play around in and they make the most of it. They prove that lust, after all, is yet another expression of love.

Kaala
Don't go for the slow-mos and the dialogues. Watch it for the story, and the incredible performances. It's a bit too long and there will be a time when you might feel bored but the climax will defintely make up for it.

Veere Di Wedding
It's being hailed as a female buddy flick and the girls are open about drinking, having flings and discussing sex, which by and large is taboo in our films, so it's brave in that sense. But it has nothing to do with women empowerment. Once you accept that and watch the film you are in for a crazy ride. Yes, there are loopholes in the story but then it never professed to be taken seriously. It's pitched as a comedy and one needn't always find logic in the fun.

Hichki
It's an inspiring slice-of-life film which has to be watched for the simple sensitive manner in which it is told. It will also take you back to your school days. And of course for Rani who makes a powerful comeback.P.S. Please carry a packet of tissues.

Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety
The youth will connect with it and the ending will take you by surprise. One star only for the climax which combines emotion, drama and humour perfectly. A very rare instance to happen in a Bollywood film, watch the film only for that if nothing!

Padman
Balki who is known for turning things on its head has done it again with Pad Man. While the subject itself lends to it, the story telling is what makes the difference. An awkward and taboo subject has been dealt with sensitivity and even humour. However, the film does get preachy at points, and slows it down.

Tiger Zinda Hai
This is a full-on masala entertainer and seeing the way the people bajaoed ceeties and taalis whenever Salman came on screen, the superstar has a winner with this one. Watch it for him and the superb action.

Cars 3
It's a movie made for the fans of the franchise. Carefully packaged to give the feeling of satisfaction but nothing more. Spending 109 minutes to smile is not a great price to pay. Go for it.

Ben-Hur
The comparisons to the 1959 film of the same name are inevitable. And because they belong to different eras, play out differently. The good news, that despite it not being superior to the 1959 film, it's well worth your time and stands on its own, despite its... shorter running time.
