I have split it in two ways, positives and negatives:

Positives:

Interesting Movies.
Good Actors & Actresses (Most).
Beautiful Surroundings used in movies.
Many new movies to choose from.
Improving standards all the time.

Negatives:

Too many similar movies.
Overrated, overacting actors like Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan praised by the media and fans.
Too many unnecessary songs added in movies.
Good actors like Ajay Devgan are underrated and not appreciated by the Critics and Fans.
Award Ceremonies always 'honouring' actors who do not deserve to win (excluding the National Awards).

Hi,

I've created a couple of Bollywood review and gossip sites. Hopefully they may be of some interest.
