Cast: Ajay Devgn, Kanagana Ranaut, Anil Kapoor, Zayed Khan, Sameera Reddy, Boman Irani Director: Priyadarshan Perhaps it's appropriate that Priyadarshan no longer refers to himself as director of his films, choosing instead to go with the credit "Filmed by Priyadarshan". The extent of his involvement on 'Tezz' for one, hardly qualifies as anything more than mere 'filming', given that it's an unapologetic rip-off of the popular Japanese film, 'The Bullet...

Cast: Ranbir Kapoor, Nargis Fakhri, Shammi Kapoor, Aditi Rao Hydari, Piyush Mishra Director: Imtiaz Ali Imtiaz Ali's 'Rockstar' is a far-from-perfect film, but it has honesty and depth, which is mostly missing in Hindi movies today.

Cast: Jamie Bell, Andy Serkis, Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Daniel Craig Director: Steven Spielberg Given that Steven Spielberg first discovered Tintin after a French critic repeatedly referenced the beloved reporter's exploits in his review of Raiders of the Lost Ark, it's fitting that Spielberg invests some of that distinct Indiana Jones spirit into 'The Adventures Of Tintin: The Secret Of The Unicorn'. A globetrotting escapade through exotic locations, the film...

Cast: Henry Cavill, Stephen Dorff, Luke Evans, Isabel Lucas, Kellan Lutz, Freida Pinto, Mickey Rourke Director: Tarsem Singh For many, the prospect of watching Henry Cavill spend roughly 110 minutes shirtless, will be a good enough reason to watch 'Immortals'. This swords-and-sandals epic based on a slice of Greek mythology stars Cavill as Theseus, a peasant in ancient Greece, chosen by the gods to fight the evil King Hyperion (Mickey...

Cast: Kevin James, Rosario Dawson, Leslie Bibb Director: Frank Coraci Like cigarettes, some films ought to come with a health warning. 'Zookeeper', in which a down-on-his-luck schlub gets romantic advice from talking animals, will give you a migraine, and is likely to invoke a lifelong hatred for simians. This idiotic film stars Kevin James as a caring zoo attendant who wants to get back with his old flame when he...
