Dabangg 2

Dabangg 2

2012 · DNA India · Mar 2013

While the film lacks in being a comprehensive package, it goes all the way in becoming yet another celebration of 'brand Salman'. Every other character and element of the film just helps him entertain you for two and a half hours. If you're looking for meaningful cinema, it is better you give this one a miss.

If you are one of those who tries to make sense out of every movie, mind you, this is definitely not your kind of a film. The movie can only be fun if you leave your brains at home. I

Not the best entertainment money can buy, I M 24 is not completely unworthy of your time.

Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola

Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola

2013 · DNA India · Mar 2013

Watch the film for Pankaj Kapoor and Shabana Azmi and some fun that the duo bring about. But don't expect too much out of it. Final warning: Bharadwaj fans, stay away from this one.

Student of the Year

Student of the Year

2012 · DNA India · Nov 2012

SOTY is not something you would want to miss if the surreal setting with bubble gum romance is your calling. The performances make this film a great watch. It's a treat for all K Jo fans and if you didn't really enjoy Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, K3G and other such films by the director, you can easily skip this one.

Ajab Gazabb Love

Ajab Gazabb Love

2012 · DNA India · Nov 2012

For a rom-com, Ajab Gazabb Love fails to entertain in either romance or comedy. You can safely skip this one unless you really have the money and time to spare on a two-hour-long movie that entertains for a few minutes.

2012 · DNA India · Nov 2012

All said and done, the film may be a one-time watch. But if you expected too much out of the film, it may not be worth the anticipation and your money.

Chal Pichchur Banate Hain

Chal Pichchur Banate Hain

2012 · DNA India · Nov 2012

Though the first half leaves you wanting to rush to the exit, the second half is tolerable. You can safely skip this movie and wait for a TV premier, and when it does come on TV, think twice before tuning in to the relevant channel. We'd rather wait and watch what Rahil and Bhavna can offer in future.

OMG! Oh My God

OMG! Oh My God

2012 · DNA India · Nov 2012

Though the film's plot is a point that has been debated often, it has never before presented on this large a scale. The screenplay of the movie is excellent, with witty dialogues that have been intelligently written. Courtroom scenes where Kanjibhai presents his case are quite amusing. The direction is good and cinematography is perfect.

Jannat 2

Jannat 2

2012 · DNA India · Nov 2012

The sequel of the 2008 film Jannat, the film is a predictable, yet partly gripping tale of a small-time brat who faces the results of his own deeds.Although the plot is calculable, the swift narrative manages to squeeze out humdrum portions. The movie had a prospect of being more engaging if the director would have invested some extra action sequences.Overall, the portrayal of this foreseeable plot is appealing in parts. Jannat 2 is worth a one-time watch, since there aren't many options for the movie-goers this weekend.

Housefull 2

2012 · DNA India · Nov 2012

One does agree there is a genre called madcap comedy and intelligence has nothing to do with it. Yet again, you cannot question the sensibility of the cine-goers today and all one demands from movies today is reasonable humour. Go in with a promise that you'll be entertained, but don't expect an exhilarating journey.

Aiyyaa

Aiyyaa

2012 · DNA India · Nov 2012

Though filled with clichés and caught in stereotypes, there is something that works in favour of Aiyyaa as it slips into the category of mindless comedy without crossing the line into idiocy like rom-coms normally do. Meenakhi's dreams, when juxtaposed with her real life, add to a capturing first half. The second half however, tends to move slowly, with the last 20 minutes becoming intolerable due to a forced song and redundant twist in the plot, which fails to bring a chuckle. Though the film is limited by cheesy dialogues and prosaism, it proves to be an entertainer and a definite treat for every Rani Mukerji fan.
