‘Fox’ is an unlikely name for a Bollywood thriller, and for a spell, it is intriguing enough.
Three-- Love, Lies, Betrayal

Friday , 4 September '09

The only saving grace in 'Three' is Nausheen, who looks like there might be an actress under the pancake.
Aagey Se Right

Friday , 4 September '09

‘Aagey Se Right’ opens with a rookie cop losing his gun. He then expends the rest of the film’s running time trying to get it back.
Mohandas

Friday , 4 September '09

Having your identity stolen is like having your whole life stripped away. That’s what happens to Mohandas, resident of a small village in Madhya Pradesh.
Chintuji

Friday , 4 September '09

Ranjit Kapoor’s debut feature ‘Chintuji’ is faction: part fiction, part fact, borrowing incidents liberally from Rishi Kapoor’s life, and tacking them on to the character.
Kisaan

Friday , 28 August '09

Rural India features in Hindi cinema so seldom now, that any film taking you into the heartland bears taking note of.
Yeh Mera India

It is a morning in Mumbai. A call-centre owner is readying himself for yet another night in a new girl’s bed.
Daddy Cool

Before you start point fingers at the producers, they have us know that this is an official remake of 'Death At A Funeral’, right in the opening credits.
Toss

A group of friends stumble upon a couple of steel trunks in a forest. They bring the locked boxes back home, and discover a huge stash of cash.
Love Khichdi

Friday , 28 August '09

Jat boy Vir, learning to be a sous chef, has a single-point agenda : to prong as many willing women as he can.
Quick Gun Murugan

Friday , 28 August '09

Quick Gun Redux, while randomly scattering a few chuckles, doesn’t crack us up the way the original did. Dr Rajendra Prasad makes a lovely looking QG, but takes his character too seriously.
Movie Review: Sikandar

Friday , 21 August '09

The strength of the beautifully shot `Sikandar’ is that it travels right into the heart of the troubled valley.
Movie review: Shadow

Friday , 21 August '09

Shadow is a film with such an improbable plot that you give up all expectations of logic, and wait helplessly for it to pass.
Movie Review: Before The Rains

Friday , 14 August '09

Rahul Bose as the conflicted handyman, who is torn between his English master and loyalty to his people, stands out.
Movie Review: Life Partner

Friday , 14 August '09

This could have been a decent bag of laughs. Instead, it is one of those you sit through hoping, fruitlessly, for respite.
Vishal Bharadwaj makes a first half that’s so good that it’s near flawless.
Movie Review: Kaminey

Friday , 14 August '09

Vishal Bharadwaj makes a first half that’s so good that it’s near flawless. To create identical twins with a distinctive speech impediment is a master-stroke.
Movie review: Chal Chalein

Friday , 7 August '09

‘Chal Chalein’ gives us youngsters, who sue the parents and the state, and come out trumps, thanks to sympathetic lawyer.
Even if the conception is less than immaculate, it’s lumped on too much champagne.
Movie review: Tere Sang

Friday , 7 August '09

If only Satish Kaushik had retained more of the honesty of the original, ‘Tere Sang’ would have been a revolutionary Hindi film.
There’s not one honestly
Movie review: Agyaat

Friday , 7 August '09

Only a few scenes succeed in startling you. And you spend the rest of the time wondering where the director who gave us 'Raat' and 'Bhoot'.
