Khuda Haafiz (2020) 25% EDIT “A by-the-book thriller, Khuda Haafiz is just entertaining enough. Dive even an inch deeper and the flaws are there for anyone to see...” – Hindustan Times Sep 28, 2023 Full Review Dolly Kitty and Those Twinkling Stars (2019) 77% EDIT “The film doesn’t do justice to Bhumi and Konkona’s talents. The defining moments aren’t cooked well enough.” – Hindustan Times Sep 27, 2023 Full Review The Big Bull (2021) 10% EDIT “Kookie Gulati makes a very weird decision to turn Abhishek Bachchan's money-looting, maniacally laughing stock broker Hemant Shah into a messiah of the masses.” – Hindustan Times Sep 27, 2023 Full Review Mili (2022) 75% EDIT “Janhvi Kapoor's survival thriller has a warm heart...” – Hindustan Times Nov 9, 2022 Full Review Samrat Prithviraj (2022) 18% EDIT “Lacklustre and inorganic.” – Hindustan Times Oct 17, 2022 Full Review Thar (2022) 63% EDIT “Anil Kapoor outshines son Harsh Varrdhan Kapoor in the film, which begins as a Western set in Rajasthan but soon descends into torture porn genre.” – Hindustan Times Jul 25, 2022 Full Review Janhit Mein Jaari (2022) 25% EDIT “Nushrratt Bharuccha's latest movie kicks off with such promise and delight, it's a shame to witness it dig itself into a hole by the second half. ” – Hindustan Times Jun 10, 2022 Full Review Sardar Udham (2021) 95% EDIT “Vicky Kaushal is bewitching in one of the boldest, most traumatising Hindi films ever made...” – Hindustan Times Oct 19, 2021 Full Review Rashmi Rocket (2021) 44% EDIT “Taapsee Pannu needs to reconsider the kind of movies she is giving her nod to.” – Hindustan Times Oct 19, 2021 Full Review Mimi (2021) 25% EDIT “As ordinary as Mimi may be, what makes it even more disappointing is Utekar's unwillingness to do more with the potent subject.” – Hindustan Times Jul 30, 2021 Full Review Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai (2021) 8% EDIT “...yet another cringeworthy watch.” – Hindustan Times May 18, 2021 Full Review Pagglait (2021) 77% EDIT “Sanya Malhotra delivered all notes with perfection in her performance as a young woman who has lost her husband.” – Hindustan Times Mar 29, 2021 Full Review Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari (2020) 55% EDIT “All comparisons aside, Manoj and Diljit do make Suraj Pe Mangal Bhari an easy treat. However, it is still not worth braving the coronavirus for. Stay home, stay safe, wait a bit and do watch it whenever it arrives on any streaming service.” – Hindustan Times Feb 24, 2021 Full Review Kaagaz (2021) 29% EDIT “Pankaj Tripathi is brilliant as ever but still could not save this Satish Kaushik film that is riddled with cliches and still years behind in a genre that has seen far better examples.” – Hindustan Times Jan 14, 2021 Full Review Wonder Woman 1984 (2020) 57% EDIT “Wonder Woman, among the few actually interesting DC icons, had the good luck to find someone as perfect as Gal Gadot to wear the cuffs, yet even she could just barely save a largely soulless, wonderless film.” – Hindustan Times Dec 25, 2020 Full Review EDIT “The film doesn't do justice to Bhumi and Konkona's talents. The defining moments aren't cooked well enough.” – Hindustan Times Oct 8, 2020 Full Review Khaali Peeli (2020) 40% EDIT “A popcorn-muncher straight from the belly of Bollywood, it's a movie that will not ask much of you, and sometimes, that's what we need from our movies.” – Hindustan Times Oct 3, 2020 Full Review The Kissing Booth 2 (2020) 29% EDIT “Joey King and Jacob Elordi's Netflix high school rom com cannot really make up its mind what and why it wants to be.” – Hindustan Times Jul 27, 2020 Full Review Little Women (2019) 95% EDIT “Powered by gorgeous performances and aided by the 19th century charm of cottages, big skirts, carriages, grand pianos and Alexander Desplat's lovely score, it's the one film no one should miss, whether you are a little girl, young woman or a grown man.” – Hindustan Times Feb 7, 2020 Full Review Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2019) 51% EDIT “JJ Abrams takes the reins of the beloved franchise back, only to deliver one of its most disappointing films ever.” – Hindustan Times Dec 24, 2019 Full Review Dabangg 3 (2019) 18% EDIT “There's frantic action scenes to give you headaches and nasty jokes to make you nauseous.” – Hindustan Times Dec 23, 2019 Full Review Knives Out (2019) 97% EDIT “Daniel Craig-starrer is two hours well spent with a hilarious and just clever enough whodunnit. Think of it as reading an Agatha Christie masterpiece.” – Hindustan Times Dec 3, 2019 Full Review Maleficent: Mistress of Evil (2019) 40% EDIT “Five years and multiple million dollars hence, Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning's film offers nothing new or even remotely as path-breaking, emotional or magical as its predecessor.” – Hindustan Times Oct 21, 2019 Full Review Downton Abbey (2019) 84% EDIT “As Hugh Bonneville, Michelle Dockery and the rest of the cast of the hit show return, it leaves us asking if the charm of the English life in the face of unfair class divide was always wholesome entertainment.” – Hindustan Times Oct 21, 2019 Full Review Angel Has Fallen (2019) 38% 2/5 EDIT “This sequel to Gerard Butler's films Olympus Has Fallen and London Has Fallen may be a little more woke but is just as unimaginative and boring as before.” – Hindustan Times Aug 23, 2019 Full Review
