Now Showing: Masand reviews 'Ishkq in Paris', 'Fast & Furious 6'
CNN-IBN's Entertainment Editor Rajeev Masand says 'Ishkq in Paris' is the sort of film that inspires its director and its leading man to assume aliases so they might escape responsibility for subjecting us to this travesty they've committed to the screen, while like a well-oiled engine, the 'Fast & Furious' series can be counted on to deliver what it promises on the box.

'Ishkq in Paris': It is a misguided, overwrought affair
'Ishkq in Paris' is the sort of film that inspires its director and its leading man to assume aliases so they might escape responsibility for subjecting us to this travesty they've committed to the screen. Leading lady Preity Zinta, unfortunately, is too well known to hide behind a fake name.

'Star Trek - Into Darkness' review: The film won't bore you
Even if, like me, you weren't a fan of the Star Trek universe, or were mostly unfamiliar with its 40-year-old legacy, you'd have to admit that JJ Abrams' 2009 reboot was a fresh and accessible stand-alone sci-fi adventure.

'Gippi' review: Many of the film's better ideas are lost in execution
School can be a difficult place if you're overweight, awkward, not particularly bright, or clumsy on the sports field. Gurpreet Kaur, the 14-year-old protagonist of Gippi (Riya Vij), ticks all the boxes.

'Go Goa Gone' review: So much in this film is good until it all goes nowhere
Go Goa Gone has been advertised as India's first zom-com, or a comedy about zombies. The film, starring Kunal Khemu, Vir Das, and Anand Tiwari as three best friends stranded on an island infested with flesh-eating zombies, works like magic when directors Krishna DK and Raj Nidimoru focus on their three leads and the irreverent banter between them.

'The Croods' review: It's simplistic yet funny in generous doses
Set in prehistoric times, 'The Croods' is what you might describe as "Ice Age with Humans". The film's message - that being adaptable is the key to one's survival - is conveyed through the story of a close-knit family of cave dwellers.

'Ek Thi Daayan' review: It leaves you wanting more in the end
A very different beast from 'Makdee', his charming directorial debut from eleven years ago, 'Ek Thi Daayan', co-written and co-produced by Vishal Bhardwaj, sees the filmmaker revisit the mythology of witches once again. But where 'Makdee' was an old-fashioned fable about a village witch who supposedly turned humans into animals, 'Daayan', set in the modern, urban world, is intended as an eerie supernatural thriller.
