It's Entertainment

1.5/5 Perhaps I had a subconscious desire to torture my inner being. If that was so, I have succeeded spectacularly. I don't remember the last time I watched an Akshay Kumar(AK) movie. But, after enduring his brand of "Entertainment" , I know that I will not be subjecting myself to his brand of juvenile antics ever, in this life time or the next. My already low expectations were deadened within the first two minutes which show a morbidly obese AK thrusting his nipple into the mouth of a wailing child. Yeah, you read that right. The humor is low brow and crass. However, with some "so bad it's good" one liners in the first half, the film gallops along. Sitting through the second half was like trying to laugh with a mouth full of broken glass. The mindless script becomes maudlin and the sporafic fun vanishes. It is a torture, full of clichés. Sonu Sood and Prakash Raj play the loving brothers, Karan and Arjun, who throw a spanner in AK's wheels. Sood actually does a good job of playing the dimwitted younger brother and their banter in the first half brought smile to my visage. Tamanna should be prepared for the second dud of her career after the disaster of "Himmatwala". All she does is stand in a saree or a sarong and mouth dialogues mocking Balaji serials. Her act gets old in the very first shot which speaks volumes about her acting capabilities. AK should be asked to see his previous ten movies. He looks and acts the same in all the same, as far as I could glean from their trailers. He really needs to stop being a part of such shite as early as possible or else the curtains can come down really soon on his career. The real villain of the movie is the bloody script. Majority of Its dialogues rhyme like the cult classic Gunda. I just wish they were half as funny as that once in a lifetime experience.

Reviewers look for soft targets like this type of movies to show their 'critics' writing skills. nothing matters if people in theater are laughing, this is what the film intends. Leave the einstein inside you outside the theater, and you will enjoy it.

This movie wastes no time to get funny, right from 1st minute. 1st half is simply hilarious. I agree comedy quotient goes down in 2nd half, but drama at end is good. Akshay is good as always. Johny lever, krushna, tamannah all does well too. Music is awesome. specially tera naam doon in opening credits. Johny Johny is excellent.

On the whole, it could have been better, but i leave theatre satisfied. Don't miss end credits !!!

"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.

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.
