• Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan’s film is Pirates Of The Caribbean without pirates or Caribbean. It is a film so dull and unoriginal that it can only inspire the shrugs of Hindustan. Full of slow-motions sequences, director Vijay Krishna Acharya amps up the frames per second to disguise the lack of storytelling craft. Aamir’s character in the film is one of his most unremarkable characters, a rogue free of charisma or cleverness, with barely a line worth remembering.

  • Saif Ali Khan can’t save this stock market trash…Despite a bullish Saif Ali Khan and a competent Radhika Apte, Baazaar is a mediocre film that tries to borrow from masterworks such as The Wolf of the Wall Street and The Big Short with disastrous results.

  • Being a tiger or helicopter parent often becomes a point of pride, and there is much to be said here — but we must wait for a better film to say it.

  • Anushka Sharma, Varun Dhawan film is as exciting as watching a shirt-pocket get monogrammed with a familiar logo.

  • Abhishek Bachchan, Taapsee Pannu and Vicky Kaushal play intriguing characters in Anurag Kashyap’s new film, but the romance is a slow-motion slog.

  • There is a lot to be said about the futility of war, and now Dutta has made his case for the futility of the war movie. Starring Arjun Rampal, Sonu Sood and others.

  • Pa Ranjith has some strong Leftist messaging and a lot to say about caste and colour, but all is lost within a mediocre film.

  • The vigilante film is well meaning and has good actors, but it is ultimately a boring effort.

  • 102 Not Out is, as I said, a sweet film. It’s nice to see an old Bachchan picture on the wall, circa Abhimaan, just as it is fine to see a photograph of a Khel Khel Mein Kapoor teaching his son math. Yet despite Bachchan and Kapoor – and young Jimit Trivedi, who plays the enthusiastic domestic help with infectious enthusiasm – the film relies too heavily on prosthetics, with liver spots being used either for laughs, or instead of character details. All we ever know about Dattatraya is his decrepitude. For a film about living a full life, that feels rather toothless.

  • Rani Mukherji’s strong portrayal of a Tourette Syndrome sufferer emerges skin deep in a film that never goes beyond the obvious
