Yes, One of the best movies, crime against women this year.

Pink, could be an important movie of this year but not the best movie. It's a poorly made movie with lots of loopholes.
Again, before you jump your guns, it's an important movie but poorly made movie.
Dhanak 9/10
With this Nagesh Kukunoor created fairytale on celluloid. Nothing else comes to it's comparison.
The perfect feel-good movie for any time.
The taking of Deborah Logan 6.5/10
Got some bad subs, couldn't understand few plotpoints. If you could manage good subs, this may be a good investment of time.

Dear film lover,
We are excited to bring to you an IMDb experience catered to the interests of the millions of movie & TV fans in India. Today we launched India Spotlight - IMD. Now, in addition to using IMDb as the authoritative destination for international films and TV shows, you can rely on us as an entertainment destination that will keep you up to date on the latest and greatest Indian movies.
Bookmark India Spotlight - IMD or download the IMDb app to stay current with “What’s Trending in India” across upcoming movies and celebrities, updated daily.
You can now plan your movie nights based on the “IMDb Top Rated Indian Movies” list that includes movies in Hindi, Tamil, Malayalam, Telugu, and Bengali. The list is ranked by a rigorous formula which includes the number of ratings each movie received among other criteria. To complement the movie recommendations based on inputs from IMDb users, you will also discover recommendations based on our editors picks. Our editors put me through an Amitabh Bachchan quiz today. I scored a measly 5/10 – clearly I have more Big B movie watching to do.
I am proud and humbled to see millions of people across the world using IMDb everyday. IMDb was born out of my personal film diary and lifelong obsession with cinema. IMDb’s first version was the simple database I created on my computer of every film I saw since the age of 13. I encourage you to visit IMDb and join the community of passionate movie fans across the world. I have 234 Indian movies on my watchlist currently, and my most memorable Indian film is 3 Idiots (2009). What is yours? Tell us using the hashtag #IMDbIndia
Cheers,

Puli (2015)

I don't think it is the same story: Puli (2015 film) - Wikipedi. It was a flop anyway.But copying from international movies happen regularly in india. It's surprising that they don't get into trouble more often.
Watched
Children of Men - 9/10 - It's one movie that never ceases to capture my attention. Everything is perfect.
A Separation - 7.5/10 - First Iranian movie to win oscar. It's a drama and very well acted out. Interesting while unassuming at the same time.
After the Dark - 5.5/10 - Had so much potential but overall a timepass movie.
Triangle - 7/10 - Watched again. Rating down to 7 this time. Concept is definitely good. But acting was ok.

Watched all Asghar Farhadi's movies ...Except awaiting for The Salesman (2016) for good print.
Try to watch his movies all are made good.

The Wailing 8/10
Very seldom there comes a movie with an original idea. This is even more rare in horror genre.
Since The Cure I found this one fulfilling the void in proper sense.
Starts slow but I can't really term any scene unnecessary even after its slow pace.
An original idea, accompanied with brilliant acting just wins over everything.

The Magnificient Seven (2016) ... Directed by Antoine Fuqua I have seen so many of Antoine Fuqua movies and I have loved them all, The strange which also is the best part for his movies is almost all are typical hollywood movies, with all typical ingredients of a masala movie, (except maybe Training Day and Brooklyn's Finest, which also incidentally are my Best from Antoine Fuqua), BUT somehow he still manages to make them interesting and stand apart, with enough and correct emotions and action to satisfy even when critically watched.
Magnificent seven is no exception, story is blatantly straight with no twists or complexity, which is also true with the original version. In the 18th century mexco, a village is terrorized by an outlaw, and the villagers hire the protagonist (again mast performance by Denzel Washington) to save them, who in turns hire 6 others, and together they fight a gunshot battle to save the day ...simple ...
But again the way its made makes it very interesting, it has all the clichés of a western Movie, but still you love them, The final battle shootout is long and satisfying.
My only gripe was it could have been a little more gruesome, and hard hitting, like few of the old westerns are, none the less its a 7/10 for this one.
