“"Superboys" is dedicated those who devour and admire great movies rather than those who make them -- and quickly shows that the line between those two categories can be breached if you're brave enough.” –

“For an industry with such adoring audiences and power players like Rama Rao Jr., Kapoor, and Khan — a pan-Indian cast — it’s endlessly frustrating to watch movies like this not only fail to do better, but fail to even try.” –

“The gags are fun, but like everything else they feel unfinished -- the seed of a full joke that will leave you wanting more. There are laughs aplenty, and Singh is completely at ease in a starring role, selling the material even in its weaker moments.” –

Shortcomings (2023)
85%

“Shortcomings isn’t revolutionary, but it’s authentic, resonant, and laugh-out-loud funny. It opens with the notion that big-budget cheesy films from Asian creatives pave the way for riskier, less bankable projects, and then proves the importance of both.” –
