#PyaarKaPunchnama2(Hindi) Rating: * * *  A sharper , more acerbic, Xtremely cynical and biased,  spiffily packaged & finished romcom revisit of the cult video circuit hit original, No 2 is no sequel for sure. It’s just an attempt to put out a better version of a meagerly appreciated earlier product. This is Luv’s ‘Pinch’ hitting Mono-Ranjan. And it’s entirely a one-sided diatribe against women (with sole exception of  Maa’s). If you are a male and have experienced a broken heart then you will surely commiserate with the director’s version of sour , demeaning love. And if you are not, you might still enjoy it for it’s super-lengthy monologue driven acidic verbal attack against your bitter halves. #LuvRanjan #ParagDesai #UniversalCommunications #PanoramaStudios #ShriAdhikariBrothers #AbhishekPathak #KartikAryan #NushratBharucha #IshitaRaj #OmkarKapoor #SunnySingh #SonnalliSeygall #MonaAmbegoankar #SharatSaxena #Viacom18MotionPictures  Runtime: 136 mins

#WeddingPullav(Hindi) Rating:* *1/2 ‘My Best friend’s Wedding’ gets the umpteenth Bollywood makeover but without the charm& smarts of the original. This one wrests it’s laurels from a fresh-faced star cast, some peppy song& dance and big fat weddings in Thailand. Beautiful visuals and shimmy trappings don’t a movie make. It’s a tedious ride even so.   #BinodPradhan #ShashiRanjan #AnuRanjan #AnushkaRanjan #ParullGossainPR #SonnalliSeygall #RishiKapoor #HimaniShivpuri #DiganthManchale Runtime:123 mins

                                    

#Jaatiwad(Hindi) Rating: * A typical low grade Bollywood potboiler, this meager budgeted wannabe has raw appeal and a soundtrack that plays out incessant audio reminders of the titular issue. Frankly there’s nothing remarkable here. Just formulaic cliches packaged to suit a niche audience(brainless ones most likely).    #WasimPR #FameMedia #ACAColoursFilmEntertainmentPvtLTd #SabirSheikh #ShayajiShinde #ManojJoshi #JitendraYadav  #AkhileshVerma #HrishitaBhatt #JaspindarNarula #FarhatKhanFilms #AnandKumarGupta #ImranKhan #IsrarAhmed #ScreenShortMediaAndEntertainmentGroup #FortuneLifeline #ShahabAllahabadi #Yellow&Red Runtime: 125 mins

 

#HogayaDimaaghKaDahi(Hindi) Rating:  * Well the title is a warning that the audience will do well to pay heed to. If not then be ready to be mercilessly riled. A motley group of has-beens and desperately seeking actors, fill up the frames with their annoying, brainless parodies of slap-shtick that can put you off comedies for life. Go get that sentence if you are so inclined.  #FauziaArshi #KaderKhan #OmPuri #RajpalYadav Runtime:117 mins

                                  

#BumperDraw(Hindi) Rating: * * barely amusing though harmless, albeit misappropriated( #HeraPheri & #Dhamaal) attempt at fun. #RajpalYadav begins benignly but goes over-the-top post interval. #AshwaniShukla #AltairMedia #RushadRana #ZakirHussain #RajpalYadav #OmkarnathManikpuri #SubrataDatta #BomiDotiwala #NarendarBedi #IrshadKhan #RashidKhan #RahulMishra Runtime:127mins

#ChinarDaastaanEIshq(Hindi) Rating: * Daunting love story, Based on an Urdu novel, this film by #ShariqueMinhaz tries hard to resurrect #FaissalKhan’s deservedly dormant acting career. Even the snow capped beauty of Kashmir cannot save this film from a humiliating reception at the Box Office. #InayatSharma #Rukkeshh #PracharEntertainment #RomanaNaz  #WhiteParrotPR Runtime:112 mins

#CrimsonPeak(English) Rating: * * * An exquisitely detailed, atmospheric haunted house drama that’s heavy on tricks and low on thrills. A gothic horror romance Crimson Peak prefers to score it’s awe with a lush ornate tapestry that’s ever so detailed and debilitating because of it. It’s gift wrapped in stylish trappings of the genre but fails to provide either the suspense or the scares that are the heart and soul of such genre inflections. The film is on sensory overload with it’s twisted almost macabre denseness that in effect blinds you to the hollowness within.  #UniversalPicturesInternationalIndia #ChandrasekharNeeli #JascintoFernanades #GuillermoDelToro #JessicaChastian #TomHiddleston #MiaWasikowska #CharlieHunnam #LegendaryPictures #WarnerBros #MathewRobbins #LucindaCoxon

#BridgeOfSpies(English) Rating: * * *1/2  Cozy Old School Spy thriller.  Spielberg embarks on a deeply thoughtful journey that has it’s basis in true life. It’s a daring, out-on-a-limb adventure that gains it’s kicks from slow-mo tension build-up and sparing conversations. Tom Hanks nails the mild mannered super hero without the cape and the inhuman powers, quite successfully.
