Its amusing insights and bold message make PK hit home. Appreciate its truths – which aren’t so alien after all.

Happy Ending’s a fun film with a melodious, modern take on individuals and pyaar. It’s an NRI movie that side-steps dilemmas and pain. And it’s probably the first Hindi film where the heroine cheekily tells the hero, “Show your boobs!”, performed with polished elan. Wrapping Hollywood ribbons on a Bollywood heart, this is a nice ending – and a good start.

The story is simple, perched on a lavish canvas – glitzy, glamorous, gorgeous bodies (read: male torso) and with self-deprecating humour which stands out and entertains in parts (a recap of moments from SRK’s own films!).

But the main reason why Mary Kom appeals is because it doesn’t just give you a ringside view of boxing; it leaves you rooting for our sportsmen who have put India on the world map.

The plot rumbles with action of seismic proportions, shot grandly in signature Shetty style – high-voltage stunts, death-defying combats, men and machines bursting into flames – served bloody, gritty and unadulterated.

HSKD has plenty of feel-good moments, but nothing that will leave you punch-drunk. For romantics who believe in their dils and their dulhanias.

The action sequences are breathtaking and despite the running time, the film doesn’t drag. Garfield and Stone, in the scenes where they are together, have a palpable chemistry. This Spider-Man serves up both pathos and power.

Unfortunately, the film’s highlight is its awful animation. These scenes can give Jaani Dushman a run for its money.

Barring Ravindra Jain’s soulful music and Jackie Shroff’s presence, everything else fails.

One of the finest things about ‘KDKL’ is Gulzar’s poetic prologue. Without the usual trappings of filmi fanfare, this story has its heart in the right place – pure and undivided. Like pre-partition brotherhood.

The film is a comprehensive coverage of Nair’s extraordinary life journey.From Trivandrum to film studios in Mumbai to finally ending up as a film collector in Pune, from an aspiring filmmaker to a strict archivist, various facets of his life have been captured beautifully.
