It’s not quite popcorn & cola stuff but if you are forever hungering for cinema of a different taste, check this one out.

Not much the cast can do to salvage this one. Bajatey Raho would be your option this weekend only if you consider there is no other major Hindi release.

The good thing about Bollywood’s GenNow top lot is most of them are trying to make a difference, beyond the obvious stardom circus. Lootera underlines why the standard Bollywood romance need not be about a crazed loverboy chasing the girl. Love stories, the film reminds you, can have layers too.

Raanjhanaa harks back to the way Bollywood used to make love stories once upon a time. With some imagination, the effect would have been nostalgic, too.

Unlike most Hollywood toon flicks lately, Monsters University doesn’t try catering to viewers across the board and strictly targets children. Still, there is something in it for all true-blue toon lovers. The creative team has come up with some really funny characters for this one. Steve Buscemi as the voice of the nerdy Randall for one is exceptional.

The film is a fun watch. But Man Of Steel won’t redefine its genre as, say, The Dark Knight did. Watch it for some amazing 3D action and the odd burst of humour.

Fukrey caters the standard package of bromance that has been hot among Bolly buffs. It looked wild in the promos. Not the same can be said of the film itself. Fukrey would have worked better if the screenplay revealed more imagination.

The Deols thunder, the PYTs preen, the action is good and the comedy lame. Two extras in orangutan suits get to shake their booty to Sheila ki jawaani. The next level of Bollywood item dancing obviously, after Sunny Leone.

It is neither a spectacular mainstream adventure nor the genre-bender experiment you would expect from Shyamalan. Maybe, M. Night should forget boys who fight baboons and go back to boys who see dead people.

A slightly more mature Ayan as storyteller, and technically his craft is a few notches higher too. Yet just like Bunny, Ayan’s cinematic idiom still seems trapped in a happy-go-lucky teenage universe.
