It's Entertainment

AN ENTERTAINMENT: The name is more than enough to explain the title . One of the biggest comedy of the year 2014. Though the movie was not much awaited and even the trailer was not much impressive. Thought that its just another prototype comedy movie but the reality was much better than expectation. There's nothing much to find about inside story but the way the storytelling start is just mind blowing.

Entertainment: The Junior Dog: A dog can not only act but can lead the movie. He had a greater entry than a real hero.

Akshay: U r the God of Comedy.. U have no replacement and yet you proved once again to the haters. No one can beat your comic timing.

Tamannaah: Words are not enough to describe your beauty. U look more beautiful in this movie and the your skills of Saas Bahu serial act was just amazing.

Johny Lever: Anyone can die seeing your expression. What a timing and a big salute to the role of Habibullah. True king of Comedy.

Prakash Raj and Sonu Sood: You are not only born for the best villain but you can entertain anyone either its a comedy or a serious mafia don. I was literally jumping off my seats to see the expression while Akki was thrilling with the ghost story.

Krushna: You are the best supporting cast ever seen and made the sequence more interesting with the silly ideas.

Verdict: Its all about the personal judgement. The reviews may be different but if your are a comedy lover, don't have much exception.

Just forget your tension at home. I am sure this will be your best weekend treat.

The only thing you will get to see is ENTERTAINMENT, ENTERTAINMENT and ENTERTAINMENT.

My Rating: 8.5 out of 10.

Obviously this is a great comedy film starring by Akshay Kumar and some other legend stars. But the exact thing is I was not able to understand the finishing of this movie and the moral/meaning of the story. It is nothing but a comedy film without any core story. The starting is quite good and I have watched it till Interval to understand the exact story but however, I was not able to do so. Let's see how much money Entertainment can get. I think, it should not be more than 30 Cr. By the way, I love the dog called Entertainment and Mithun sir's comedy in this film. Hope we will get better films by Akhil's from the next time. BTW, Tamaannah was also better than previous films.

After a successful stint as writers of Golmaal series, Bol Bachchan, Housefull etc the brother duo Sajid-Farhad debut as directors with "Entertainment".

For the last few movies that I watched in the comedy genre there has been a flaw, in the second half the comedy becomes a mundane caricature and there are hardly any laughs, the same flaw is pertinent in "Entertainment" as well.

Story by K Subhash tells us the story of Akhil Lokhande (Akshay Kumar) who is struggling to make his ends meet, suddenly has a strike of luck when he discovers that he is the son of multi millionaire Pannalal Johri (Dalip Tahil) who is dead. When he reaches to claim his fortune he comes to know that his father has willed his entire property to his favorite pet dog Entertainment (Junior). The rest of the movie tells us how Akhil & Entertainment fight for the fortune.

Well the story premise sounds silly but the screenplay by Sajid-Farhad makes it completely chaotic. The first half still has some laughs but in the second half the screenplay falls completely flat with mundane sequences and forced situations which look completely out of place. Overall the screenplay's funny quotient depletes in the second half and looks kiddish.

Dialogues by Sajid-Farhad themselves sound funny initially but it gets repetitive and starts irritating. Sajid-Farhad dialogues have too much emphasis on rhyming of dialogues, which initially brings some laughs but later becomes too repetitive and sounds jarring.

Hamming is passed as acting in this movie. Akshay Kumar as Akhil the main protagonist tries hard to act funny but is successful initially but later he becomes repetitive and hams incessantly. Krushna hams all throughout the movie. Johnny Lever still is successful is bringing some laughs. Tamanah Bhatia is the decorative piece of the movie. The two villains played by Prakash Raj & Sonu Sood add up to the buffoonery. Cameos by Reteish Deshmukh, Shreyas Talpade & Choreography Remo D'Souza are wasted. Mithun Chakraborty in a guest appearance has nothing much to do in this madness. The real hero is the dog Junior, whenever he is on the screen it is a delight but unfortunately the screen time of Junior is in the first half and then in the climax.

Music by Sachin-Jigar is nothing to write home about, rather the tunes seems a rehashed version of their previous movie "FALTU". Even the choreography by Remo D'Souza is average. Cinematography by Manoj Soni looks too artificial, what with too much of color being used in VFX.

Sajid-Farhad's debut does not create any impact and they come up with a below average fare. If you are a dog lover you may like the movie in bits and pieces but overall it is below average...

"It's Entertainment", directed by the duo Sajid-Farhad, is a comedy as well as Romantic film.

Actor Akshay Kumar along with Tamannah Bhatia has done a good job, providing good fun at frantic pace.

Akshay's co-actor, Junior, the Golden Retriever dog, had been a lovely speechless actor in the movie.

The music of the film is entertaining as well.

Johnny Lever as Habibullah Sheikh is a happening comedian and has played a nice role.

Sonu Sood and Prakash Raj have delivered their negative roles in comedian way conforming to the nature of the film.

To sum up, "It's Entertainment" will provide good entertainment to the viewers.

Sajid-Farhad, the talented Writer duo, turn Directors with 'Entertainment'. And fortunately, 'Entertainment' is unabashedly silly & offers some funny moments, that work on its favor. Its mad, but its a bit fun too.

'Entertainment' Synopsis: A down on his luck fella, gets the shock of his life, when he realizes that all his father's wealth has been given to a dog. Chaos follows...

'Entertainment' has an interesting premise & the Writer-Director duo manage to deliver some over-the-top, but funny sequences in the goings-on. The humor here is clearly absurd & it doesn't shy away from that fact, which in turn, works on its advantage.

The first-hour passes by nicely, with the sequences between Akshay & Dog, doing the trick. But, the second-hour is where the film begins to slip. The entire track involving the greedy brothers, played by Prakash Raj & Sonu Sood, is prolonged & barely funny. The climax, however, is decent.

Sajid-Farhad certainly make a watchable comedy, but this isn't a laugh-riot. It has its share of fun, but it could've been so much more! A stronger second-hour was the need of the day! As Directors, the duo have done a fair job. Cinematoraphy is okay. Editing is passable. Music by Sachin-Jigar is lovely.

Performance-Wise: Akshay is in his element, delivers a sincere, comedic performance from start to end. Tamannaah looks great, but hardly gets any scope to perform. Mithun Chakraborty is in form, yet again. Johny Lever brings the house down. He's hilarious! Krushna, also, manages to bring in some great laughs. Prakash Raj & Sonu Sood are passable. Vrajesh Hirjee scores in a cameo. Junior as Entertainment, the dog, is adorable.

On the whole, 'Entertainment' will appeal to those who primarily enjoy slap-stick comedies.
