The animation is bright, colorful, and visually inviting. The jungle setting is filled with lively characters and appealing imagery that keep young viewers invested throughout the film.
Toy Story 5
2026 · Firstpost
The new film may not be as overwhelmingly emotional or moving, but credit must be given to the makers to ensure this one too reaches the finish line.
Peddi
2026 · Firstpost
This film is the perfect embodiment of what happens when too many cooks and too much masala spoil the broth. Peddi is a muddled sports drama that suffers from a mishmash of multiple genres thrown into one narrative, with an objectified Janhvi Kapoor inserted only for crowd-pleasing tactics. Only if the film knew how not to be distasteful and rescue an engrossing idea from a forgettable palimpsest, it could have worked.
Disclosure Day
2026 · Firstpost
It may not dazzle as vibrantly as ET or Jaws, one cannot deny the importance of the story the filmmaker tells with neat effects. And the cherry on the cake is Emily Blunt.
Tu Yaa Main
2026 · Firstpost
This film is also about the free spiritedness of music and not just the monstrosity of the hideous creature. It's more than just a survival drama.
The Raja Saab
2026 · Firstpost
The Raja Saab is more than just a horror comedy or a larger-than-life ode to the stardom of the leading man. It's a film that also talks about family bonds and the battle with mental illness.
Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat
2025 · Firstpost
Post Saiyaara, it's great to see romance coming back and filmmakers taking a break from bloodshed and breaking bones. But if romance means Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat, let’s break some bones then
Maalik
2025 · Firstpost
Rajkummar Rao rules and roars in a tenacious but tried-and-tested crime drama
Chandu Champion
2024 · Firstpost
Kartik Aaryan, who plays this complex character, embodies the role with the kind of eagerness and earnestness he has channelled in many of his previous outings. And the early naïveté of Petkar blends nicely with the actor's own curiosity to discover the depth of his role.
Chhapaak
2020 · Mid-Day
Deepika Padukone and Vikrant Massey deliver compelling performances, but Chhapaak isn't going to be an easy watch.
Welcome to the Jungle
2026 · Firstpost · Jun 2026
Welcome To The Jungle works more than it doesn’t due to its self-awareness. It’s a film that fully commits to its idiocy. It stops at nothing. It halts at nothing. We may not take back anything. But a smile amid the time of gloom also works if you can’t entirely guffaw.
Pati Patni Aur Woh Do
2026 · Firstpost · May 2026
Despite one of the most interesting ensembles of recent times, which features some of the most dependable actors we have in the country today, Director Musassar Aziz is let down by a lifeless script. It is not a film about infidelity, but it is not a comedy of errors either. It almost comes close to becoming a comedy of terrors.
Mastiii 4
2025 · Firstpost · Nov 2025
If all the adult comedies decided to walk into a bar one fine night, only Delhi Belly and Go Goa Gone may be allowed inside. The rest may be denied entry despite them being 18 plus. No Masti for them! No puns here.

The cameos never stop. It’s like watching the last five minutes of the match between Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns from Wrestlemania 40. Anyone can show up anytime!
Baaghi 4
2025 · Firstpost · Sep 2025
Baaghi 4 is Lage Raho Munna Bhai meets The Sixth Sense meets Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai meets Joker meets Madhoshi meets Shutter Island meets disaster in the making
War 2
2025 · Firstpost · Aug 2025
War 2 is not the end, we have more films in the spy universe coming in. One happens to be Alpha and then what not. Shah Rukh Khan once rightly said in an interview, only the dead have seen the end of War
Dhadak 2
2025 · Firstpost · Aug 2025
If Saiyaara, despite a happy ending, made people cry buckets of water, this romantic drama may go a step ahead. The film may end but the caste battle won't.
Saiyaara
2025 · Firstpost · Jul 2025
What keeps Saiyaara afloat is how two new faces submit to the vision of a filmmaker despite the messiness and imperfection of the narrative. What also holds the film together is the stunning title track
Deva

I blame the current and frustrating fetish of the audience to watch 'Mass' cinema that we glorify flawed people and their perverted understanding of machoism
Game Changer
2025 · Firstpost · Jan 2025
Ram Charan and Kiara Advani’s film is forgettable but not as awful as Indian 2
Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3
2024 · Firstpost · Nov 2024
Kartik Aaryan, Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit's horror-comedy is innocuous fun
Vicky Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video
2024 · Firstpost · Oct 2024
The film has no reason to exist in the 90s. It could be a film about a couple whose video goes viral on social media. But then, the makers felt hunting for a CD would make for a far more entertaining crowd pleaser
Khel Khel Mein
2024 · Firstpost · Aug 2024
The film is sadly undone by its second half that suffers from what can be best described as the Mood Swing syndrome. Only people with massive mood swings can relate to the jitteriness of the film's narrative
