An overreaching conman bites off more than he can chew, digs a mammoth hole for himself in the bargain, and then is forced to spend an excessive amount of time looking for ways out of the mess. That, in a nutshell, is the storyline of Raja Natwarlal.

Sounds utterly hackneyed? It certainly does, yet it might have yielded a passably entertaining film if only the screenplay wasn’t so overly harebrained. 

This laboured, lumbering Bollywood tribute to a fictional “naye India ka naya Natwarlal”, scripted by Parveez Shaikh and directed by Kunal Deshmukh, does not quite make the grade as the smart crime caper that it so desperately wants to be. 

The narrative is clunky and sluggish. It can barely hold itself together, let alone keep the audience in its grip for nearly two and a half hours.

The titular male character fakes everything from the white ball used in the 2011 ICC World Cup final to an auction of an IPL-style cricket team to his own death in order to get the better of his adversaries.

The crazy games that he plays and the outright fakery that’s on show rubs off on the film as a whole.Raja Natwarlal is none of what it promises to be. 

When nothing that unravels on the screen appears to be happening in earnest, a film can only slip into the trap of being too clever by half.

Raja Natwarlal does just that. It sinks quickly into a muddled plot that proves to a bottomless pit.

In one scene, the cold-blooded baddie clobbers a bald man with the very cricket bat that the latter seeks to pass off as the willow that Don Bradman played with in an Ashes Test in the 1930s.

Raja Natwarlal is the kind of film in which even a harmless old cricket bat is used for a bloody purpose that isn’t permissible if one went strictly by the rule books.

The film resembles a magician’s sleight of hand that has pretensions to intelligence and insight but is in reality a completely dumb act that is only unintentionally funny. 

What Raja Natwarlal lacks is authentic humour and genuine sparks of inspiration. As a result, despite the consistently retrained acting all around, it fails to be anything more than desultory.

The protagonist, Raja (Emraan Hashmi), is a small-time crook with a heart of gold who, in the company of friend and benefactor Raghav (Deepak Tijori), swindles the gullible to fund his little escapades.

But the poor guy does not make enough dough to be able to rescue his girlfriend Ziya (Pakistani model and actress Humaima Malick in her first Mumbai film) from the bar where she dances every night before drunk, leering, money-waving men.

So Raja decides to do something about pulling off a con job that can alter his life for good. He robs a couple of gangsters of a briefcase containing a fat sum of money. 

That act of bravado changes his life all right but not quite in the way he anticipates. 

It sets off a chain of events that puts him in the line of fire of wealthy Cape Town-based outlaw Vardha Yadav (Kay Kay Menon).

Painted into a corner, Raja turns to Yogi (Paresh Rawal), a wise old man who has turned his back on a life of crime and gone into hiding in Dharamshala.

The duo put together a team that sets out to give Vardha Yadav a run for his money, playing on his obsession with India’s national pastime.

If seen in isolation, parts of Raja Natwarlal are watchable owing to the presence in the cast of Paresh Rawal and Kay Kay Menon, both of whom are proven quantities and past masters at making the best of a bad deal.

Emraan Hashmi is no pushover either. Even in the most unconvincing of scenes, he manages to hold on to his composure, demonstrating why he is one of Bollywood’s most effective (and underrated) actors.

Humaima Malick, who gets to sway to two dance numbers within the first 30 minutes of the film, besides being part of several other musical set pieces, has just enough to do not to be swamped out by the men.

But for all the efforts put in by the cast, two stars are all that Raja Natwarlal will get. But even these might well be fake, given that the film has such unwavering love for the phony.

The story revolves around Samrat Tilakdhari or STD as he is fondly known. No, he does not see anything wrong with the nickname. He also wears a trench coat, has curly hair, deduces stuff fast, talks even faster, and indulges in recreational boxing. And he has an an assistant-cum-friend called Chakradhar Pandey or CD.
The script is full of cheesy and unintentionally hilarious dialogues, such as, "Come and get ready for dilchasp rahasya", or "Here's a mistress in distress". The fringe characters remind us of the motley group in 'Maine Pyaar Kiya' or 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun'. For example, the maid-in-chief Shanti (Puja Gupta), tries very hard to be like the late actor Lakshmikant Berde, the mimicking Hari (Navin Prabhakar) is a mere caricature that can be found in any one of the background cast from a saas-bahu drama. We were fully convinced that the Barjatya favourite Pomeranian dog 'Tuffy' might make an entrance. Thankfully, he didn't.

Kaanchi: The Unbreakable has good intentions and that’s about the only positive thing that can be said about this amateurish, infantile disaster. This is the kind of movie where characters look into the camera and wink, to indicate to the audience that what is about to follow is a joke. It’s the kind of movie where one character says something to the effect of “You know how dangerous I can be” to another, with the straightest of faces. It’s the kind of film that seems to have been put together to give students from Whistling Woods International, Ghai’s Mumbai-based film school, a chance to exercise the skills they just learned in the classroom.

Mishti's debut performance is very good and Kartik too seems to have good work yet again. There on screen chemistry looks really good.The story line is really involving.

Has baby pooped? What colour and consistency? Burped? Fed? Conversation ranges along these lines. Romance is down to how much diapers cost. And mind-blowing midnight sex? What’s that?

The mantle of the harried married couple is worn by Farhan Akhtar and Vidya Balan, as we see them struggle with their ‘shaadi’ and its fall-out. ’Shaadi Ke Side Effects’ begins with a bang, pun completely intended, and we are taken in by Sid and Trisha’s life, so close to what we may have lived through. Or are wading through, as double income-no-kids turns into single income-cranky wife-desperate husband-demanding baby. All she can think of is the offspring. All he can think of, longingly, is the way it used to be—being a ‘boy’ with the boys, swilling beer, lounging on couch with the telly blaring, cheering at the game.

The dwarves, along with Bilbo Baggins and Gandalf the Grey, continue their quest to reclaim Erebor, their homeland, from Smaug. Bilbo Baggins is in possession of a mysterious and magical ring.

While I enjoyed the first Hobbit film, it did feel like it left a bit to be desired. This was no surprise, as everything that I loved about the book was in the second half. I knew that I would be waiting for all the good stuff with the second and third films. And sure enough, the second film delivers where the first film didn't quite excite as much as I had wanted. While it isn't perfect and does unnecessarily deviate a bit, this is easily better than the first film, giving us a bigger, bolder adventure and a more interesting Bilbo Baggins this time around.

Steve Rogers struggles to embrace his role in the modern world and battles a new threat from old history: the Soviet agent known as the Winter Soldier.

The movie is a great political thriller and i must admit, even without the bonus of superheroes, the script/story is a great movie. The superheroes is what we pay and want to see but the amazing flow of the movie itself should leave many satisfied. The superheroes and villains were all great and i hope we continue seeing the Falcon in the future along with Black Widow. This movie is the most closely linked with The Avengers and also Avengers Age of Ultron, from the rest of the phase 2 films. This is a great movie and one that i highly recommend watching.

Varun tries everything in his repertoire to be this hero: he fights, dances, and tries to be funny, topping it all up with a man-boob-mobile-nipple moment.

Main Tero Hero transports you into a world of fun that we have been kept devoid of from weeks. Quick witted, jocular and pricelessly silly, this film is a sure shot must watch. Leading constantly somber lives extracts the vibrancy out of us and after a long time here’s a film that will rescue you from the regular pains by offering 120 minutes flat of persistent guffawing. Varun Dhawan’s Govinda act is one rollicking show.

Right before her wedding, a young woman finds herself abducted and held for ransom. As the initial days pass, she begins to develop a strange bond with her kidnapper.
Well the movie is simple,realistic,beautifully shot,has nice music and is diligently acted.If you are looking for an out of the box movie,this movie is not for you. It is for those soul, who believe more in spiritual form of love rather than physical.It touches you at various level, though revolving around a linear storyline.The movie also touches upon various important social issues without being redundant and preachy such as child abuse,class difference etc.It also never appears to be overacted, though the scene in the second half where Alia confronts ghost of her past seems quite elongated.All in all a good clean family movie with a soulful core and a genuine message you can take back home.One of the best works of Imtiaz after Jab we Met ..one of the most soulful indeed.Though we all know practically in real life a lot of things are not possible ,but these movies sometimes gives us a hope to believe in good ...and in spiritual love.After all some movies are meant to make you oblivious about reality...for sometime.

The movie opens to a scene of a play in motion, one that's telling the story of Indo-Pak war. When suddenly there's a scene that requires "Ma", only "Ma" is busy kissing her boyfriend backstage.

Such is the comedy. Pretty immature. It is to save your from the torture of watching this movie that reviewers like myself are writing this. I give half a star to the movie, like I do to most, purely for the effort of making the film.

Yaariyan is an entirely disappointing film. The characters are flawed, and the acting is fake. There's not story or plot in the film. This college in Sikkim has five young kids. The boys just have the one dream of gaining access to the girls' hostel and kissing a girl. Mind you, before heading out there, the hero even takes the permission of his aunt and the girls' hostel's warden. Trouble comes in the form of a company wanting to build a casino on the spot where the college now stands. The challenge is to win five competitions, between the Australians and the college kids.

Lots of action, lost of attempt to create drama, and not-so-great dialogues take over the movie.

Settled in London, Aman hopes to marry Asha, an Indian woman also based in London. He visits her parents' house to seek their permission to marry her. However, his plans to impress the family start failing when they discover that he is a Pakistani.
I can't find a single reason to appreciate this movie, the script was idiotic, didn't expect that, since Neeraj Pandey was associated with this movie. The film has no story at all, some Scattered events sewed together, which were supposed to make sense, but they seldom do. The movie progresses very slowly and by the second Half it gets super boring and starts to fall apart. 
The acting was average, Ali Zafar tried but doesn't actually click, Yami Gautam was all smiles and nothing else, only Kiron Kher did something good in acting department rest were all were bland. In the second half Anupam Kher appears but I don't have a single clue What he was doing in the movie, it's rather annoying to see such a talented actor's potential not utilized.
The movie also tried to tackle the India-Pakistan issue, but it all seemed pointless, at the conclusion, I would say it's a "total" waste of time and money.

American Hustle tells the story of brilliant con man Irving Rosenfeld (Christian Bale), who along with his equally cunning British partner and lover Sydney Prosser (Amy Adams) is forced to work for a wild unhinged FBI agent Richie DiMaso (Bradley Cooper). DiMaso pushes them into a world of Jersey powerbrokers and mafia that’s as dangerous as it is enchanting. Jeremy Renner is Carmine Polito, the passionate, volatile, New Jersey political operator caught between the con-artists and Feds. Irving’s unpredictable wife Rosalyn (Jennifer Lawrence) could be the one to pull the thread that brings the entire world crashing down. Like David O. Russell’s previous films, American Hustle defies genre, hinging on raw emotion, and life and death stakes.
