With a string of consistent hits, it seems Akshay is set to become the next king of Bollywood.
This week saw the the release of his much hyped 'Singh is Kinng'. Expectations were as always were high. Interestingly, the movie doesn't disappoint.
The movie uses the hitherto untouched concept of 'Gangsta. Sardar'.Though this has caused quite a stir in various Sikh groups but the movie doesn't project anything objectionable. Its a ride of just under two-and-half hours with most of the time or rather all the time Akshay making his presence felt.
The script is just OK. Akshay's acting makes up for the flaws. Its not a deliberate 'laughter show' type comedy. The jokes are genuinely funny. All the actors get to play there part comfortably. Without going too deep into each characters origins, the story doesn't shift from its prime plot.
The 'Punjabi biased' music is OK. The title track is good. Also the Snoop Dogg's version at the end credits is also pretty cool. The songs don't slow down the movie and provide the right break in the movie.
The cinematography is good. The frame captures the beautiful locales of Australia. Also the songs provide the already seen for a hundred times Egyptian monuments. Barring that the cinematography is quite cool during the action sequences.
Acting. All the actors deliver at their respective moments. Akshay is on cloud nine with his extravagant performance. The supporting actors also get their dues in the script. Katrina looks gorgeous but just seems to be a retired stereotype.
In all the movie is not at all a waste of time or money. If you're having a free weekend, just grab a seat and a tub of popcorn and enjoy.
Oh! And be sure to leave your brains back at home if you wanna have a good time!!

Singh is Kinng,directed by Anees Bazmee has no story basically.But this one could be called a Kinng sized entertainer. It offers loads of big laughs,some action sequences,a little drama and lots of romance and last but not the least it has the biggest entertainer of Bollywood-Akshay Kumar. Direction by Anees Bazmee is excellent. The music is chart buster with all songs topping. The Cinematagropher has done a excellent job.The scenic beauty of Australia has been captured very well. Special mention to the dialogs writer who does an amazing job. Performance wise-Akshay Kumar is the Daddy of Entertainment.He simply rocks!Katrina Kaif adds glamor value to the film.Om Puri and Kirron Kher are superb in their respective roles.Sonu Sood is very good.Neha Dhupia looks gorgeous.Javed Jaffery is excellent.Ranvir Shorey is okay in a brief role.Yashpal Sharma,Sudhanshu Pandey,Kamal Chopra and Manoj Pahwa are good.
Overall Singh is Kinng is an entertainer.
Overall Singh is Kinng is an entertainer.
Akshay Kumar tries his best and occasionally breathes life into 'Singh Is Kinng'. The film is a complete mess. It has such a horrendous beginning that I almost felt I had entered the wrong theater. Akshay then enters and despite the corny jokes, manages to hold our attention. There are some catchy musical numbers. However, the plot is simply too weak and everybody else looks bored. Om Puri and Ranvir Shorey are both VERY disappointing. Katrina Kaif tries to act but doesn't succeed. The ending descends into mawkish melodrama and becomes preachy. The film is best seen at home with ample use of the FF button.
Overall 3/10

This is definitely one of the better movies to have been released this year as well as one of the better comedies, which has action, drama and a bit of thriller mixed in with romance.
Happy Singh, who everyone in his village wants to get rid off, even though he wants to ensure that everyone is happy and he helps everyone that he can , leaves his village in the Indian state of Punjab, with his friend Rangeela, who is able to speak some English instead of Happy, to got to Australia to bring back his friend, Lucky. But there's slight hitch en route, as they accidentally end up in Egypt and have to re arrange everything.
Starring Akshaye Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Kirron Kher, Om Puri, Javed Jaffrey, Sonu Sood, Manoj Pahwa and Neha Dhupia, this is written and directed by Anees Bazmee.
As I have mentioned previously, that this is one of the better comedies this year and Akshaye Kumar along with Om Puri, has again proved his talent in this genre. The same applies to Sonu Sood and Manoj Pahwa. Unfortunately, there's not much comedy involved for Katrina, though she has done a good job where it was required in a couple of scenes. Javed Jaffrey has, once again, put on the same type of accent that he did in "Salaam Namastey" and in which he proved to have done so well. Unfortunately, for him, this is not applicable here at all as he failed to make that impact. However, Sonu Sood was convincing in his role as a "Don." Finally, Kirron Kher! As usual she delivers the perfect role.
There are plenty of flaws and one is that is that if "Happy" is unable to speak a word of English, then how come that he is able to speak some words such as "shut up" and also understands what is being said to him? This is where the writer and the director has made an error. Never the less it is an average good comedy that is worth watching once Oh! Just one last point and that is make sure that you leave your "thinking" grey cells at home and intact.

Just came back from preview screening of this movie. Its a Hilarious Comedy, we were literally in fits due to laughter. Akshay Kumar steals the show, nothing unexpected. But from the time he makes an entry, you know this is going to be one roller coaster ride. And he is supported very well by rest of the cast, however Katrina Kaif is there doing what she does the best, look good. She has nothing much to do in the movie. But I feel that this could have been a much better movie, the title of the movie had lot more potential, however I was not expecting much from Anees Bazmee. But yes, if you love Akshay Kumar, and do not might couple of hours of side splitting comedy, then go for it..
