We went into this movie with the thought that this might actually turn out to be nice. The promos released were kind of attractive and showed that this might be a refreshing comedy. Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgn, not the biggest stars around but good actors nonetheless added to the hype and yet what we got was nothing but pure lame, pointless, idiotic and humor that doesn't do justice to its definition.
This is one movie that you go in with the thought, 'These rascals might be entertaining' and come out with the thought, 'Was that entertainment? Bloody rascals!'
David Dhawan has given us a number of comedy flicks in the past and most of them, more often than not have worked. This one doesn't come even close to being the best and doesn't come close to be called as good humor either!
The story line doesn't make sense or in fact there isn't a story line at all!
Heights of over acting are on display by all the three leads, namely, Ajay Devgn, Sanjay Dutt and Kangna Ranaut (who I personally hate as an actor).
The movie opens with a set of 2D animations for the credit which was innovative yet pointless. Throughout the movie there is this constant rhyming going on dialogue after dialogue which we presume is to make them funny but are plain lame and don't came close to make them funny. The character names for Sanjay Dutt (Chetan) and Ajay Devgn (Bhagat) are supposed to in some way make some kind of mocking at Chetan Bhagat but I doubt it was anywhere near being successful in doing so.
The plot too is stale and there is no twist whatsoever to catch your eye but well you can't expect that from an Indian comedy unless making light of poverty, charity, handicap or a sexed-up version of Andaz Apna Apna meets Jodi No 1 meets Deewana Mastana meets Bluffmaste is your idea of a joke, those laugh lines won't budge.
Sadly, Bollywood comedies thrive on double meanings but that too has gotten so stale that it rarely brings a laugh. The fact is the over acting rises to heights that it doesn't appears that it is supposed to make you laugh! Throughout the movie, there were punches being delivered by the rascals on screen but they were so stale, so boring, and not even worth calling a PJ. The writer should be delivered all the punches back and in a different sense altogether!
It made us laugh just once throughout the movie and that scene too wasn't as funny to leave a mark for I have been racking my brain to remember what it was and yet I fail!
It made us laugh at another point though but it was not because of the on screen rascals, it was because of a couple of off screen rascals who were talking of breaking the LCD of the theater, yes 'THE LCD' when the sound went off for some reason. Those guys were funnier than the on screen rascals.
Some of my friends can be funnier than these rascals!
Coming to the acting bit, well I, on a personal level am a fan of Sanjay Dutt's work and Ajay Devgn has impressed in the last couple of movies but yet, as stated there has been too much of over acting and well, with a script like that, no one can make the movie funny in any way whatsoever. I won't talk about Kangna Ranaut for I hate her hence I might get a bit biased and a bit too negative. About Lisa Haydon or Hayden whatever her name is, she has been portrayed as a prostitute and that's her character!
All in all, this is one movie that can easily give competition to Double Dhamaal which I had already presumed to be the worst comedy Bollywood movie of the year, but this one has surely given Double Dhamaal a strong competition. Even a no brainer should have some sort of sense and this one has nothing to offer!
We give it a, I don't know, it might be a bit too much for the movie but still a 0.3/5 just for that scene which made me laugh and yet I fail to remember!
In short, pure bullshit and a waste of time and money!
