On this episode of Now Showing, CNN-IBN Entertainment Editor Rajeev Masand reviews Salman Khan-starrer 'Dabangg 2' and filmmaker Peter Ramsey's 'Rise of the Guardians'. ...
Rise of the Guardians has been described as a sort of children's equivalent of The Avengers, what with its similar premise of mythical heroes coming together to defend the world against a dastardly villain. But despite the beautifully rendered animation and some impressive voice work, the film feels bloated from packing in too many things at once, and simply doesn't offer compelling enough characters to make the journey with. ...
Given that Dabangg 2 is a family production in every sense of the term - Salman Khan stars, his brother Arbaaz directs, Arbaaz's wife Malaika Arora produces, and their sister Alvira Agnihotri does costumes - you can't help but wonder why no one thought of roping in their father, veteran screenwriter Salim Khan, to slap the script into shape. Because while there's some fun to be had watching Chulbul Pandey...

How anyone can rope in so many charming actors and yet make such an unremarkable film is the one single thought that's going through your head as you watch 'Playing For Keeps'. This inoffensive but formulaic romantic comedy squanders away the talents of its sexy cast by trapping them in such a predictable script. ...

Khiladi 786 stars Akshay Kumar, who breaks into a Himesh-voiced song at the drop of a hat. Normally that wouldn't be a problem, except that Himesh Reshammiya himself appears in this film, which means you have two people on screen with the same voice - Himesh Reshammiya's voice. Creepy, positively creepy. ...
Rajeev Masand says 'Khiladi 786', with its pedestrian humour, inane plot, and hammy performances, begs the question, 'Haven't we had enough?' What do you say? Write your own review and win prizes.
