Himesh Reshammiya’s latest release Karzzzz, a remake of Subhash Ghai’s 1980 classic Karz, opened today to a thunderous response at the box office and with the opposite affect on critics. With 17 reviews counted for the grade of the film, 3 have been positive, 4 have been average and the remaining 10 have been negative. The film is at a 40%, which earns it a ‘D+’ (click here to see our grading scale). If you include reviews that aren’t counted for the grade, there are 21 reviews total with 4 being positive, 5 average and 12 being negative.
Whether or not the grade affects the film’s box office potential is uncertain as Reshammiya’s last film, Aap Ka Surroor – The Moviee, almost got an identical score with a 41% to also receive a ‘D+’. That film went on to do good business and was declared a hit. We will have more reviews for the film as they come in over the weekend which may bring the film’s grade up or down, so be sure to check this space daily over the weekend.

Jagmohan Mundhra’s Shoot On Sight also opened today and is the latest film to deal with terrorism. Like Mundhra’s previous film Provoked (‘C’, 54%), Mundhra is tackling a heavy topic but is not connecting with the audience. Shoot On Sight is currently at a C- (49%), slightly better than Provoked. Of the seven reviews in for the film, 3 were positive, 1 was average and the remaining 3 were negative. For all news and reviews for Shoot On Sight, click here.
The last release of the week was the animated Cheenti Cheenti Bang Bang, which even critics have stayed away from. With only 3 reviews in for the film (all negative), the film is at a ‘D-’ with 30%. For all news and reviews for Cheenti Cheenti Bang Bang, click here.
