This is a film that could have been much more, and yet is fulfilling despite the minuses. Recommended!

Ladies, if you like being called ‘Party Pack’ and ‘Family Pack’ and have the same IQ as the female characters of this film, you too might dissolve into giggles and enjoy the cheeky humiliation. For those men who think being creepy is cute, this is your fairytale. For all the sane people, call your DVD guy to rent out a genuine sex comedy instead!

Director Navdeep Singh who made the delightful Manorama Six Feet Under, whips up a film that’s unrepentantly dark, gritty and gruesome. And you still watch with rapt attention, as the story that is unfolding is so deliciously intense and the performance by the leading lady so earnest and untethered. This is a jolt-filled ride you don’t want to miss!

The cast is sprightly and earnest, but let down by a dodgy script and inadequate execution. Director Amit Khanna gives us a film with a reasonably interesting premise, but executed in an outdated, offensive and dull manner. You truly wish they’d change the title tagline.

The film can be endured by those excited enough to see Nana Patekar back in action, such that they’ll overlook the film’s shortcomings. If that’s not you, it’s wiser to pass.

Director Sharat Kataria weaves together a film that has enough heart, humour and romance to warrant a second-time watch. Do not miss!

The film is mainly recommended for Nawazuddin Siddiqui’s class act as the impudent criminal. Other than that, the film has some solid, immersing moments and an equal number that are misogynistic and repulsive.

… the viewer is often lost in a labyrinth, which is interesting for a while, and onerous thereafter. Despite these flaws, the film is still enjoyable in sporadic bursts for the immersing story, an unconventional lead cast, and the visual flair.

This is one of the few films we experience and not just watch. We revel in and relish the unusual story, the characters, their equations, and soak in the performances and aesthetics. Don’t miss!

Debut director Vibhu Virender Puri was probably attempting— as one can see from the visual splendor, shots of magic realism, and wry humour— to make a Wes Anderson-meets-Sanjay Leela Bhansali style epic. But barring the film’s story and a few immersing scenes, all you have is characters you don’t emotionally invest in, bizarre dialogue, and a lifeless romance. That’s unfortunate indeed, as this story was rich with possibilities.
