    Housefull 2 = Entertainment...!!!!

    Housefull 2 is a solid entertainment....

    Akshay Kumar steals the show, he's back with a bang with his first movie of the year.... He's stunning, fabulous and his signature expression was outstanding, loved to see him in his original avtaar, of being 'kaminaaa'...!!!!

    John is improving movie by movie...

    Ritesh & Shreyas have done a good job...

    Asin & Jacqueline were good, rest of the two don't have much to do...

    The four fathers were brilliant...

    Johnny Lever & Chunky Pandey were average...

    Ranjeet's cameo was wow...

    All the songs were good...

    Akshay Kumar's entry was awesome..

    This one is better than Housefull...

    The scene with Python and Crocodile was stretched...

    I would've rated it 6/10 but it's Akshay Kumar who changed my mood... He was mindblasting...

    I'll rate it 6/10...

    Full of stars and flaws..

    I've always seen Sajid Khan shout out in interviews that he does not make movies for critics. I respect that. I feel every fimmaker should make a film that pleases them and the audience and not for reviews. However, that does not mean they should take their audience for granted. Sajid does just that in this flick. I wasn't a huge fan of Housefull but still I found it enjoyable. I walked in the theaters expecting just a normal entertainer and what I get from this film is a lot of unanswered question.

    Why exactly do the Kapoors even hate eachtother? How is that Akki-John, Asin-Jaquelin become friends again that quick? How do people not know Mithun's past despite him being one of the riches people of the UK? And that too in this high technology wikipedia-google age? Why does John continue trying to con Randhir Kapoor if he wasn't the one they were suppose to con?

    The story is intended to confuse the viewer. That is okay but it's very flawed.

    Mithun all the sudden turning into a goon again is ridiculous! I mean, are we idiots?

    I feel Sajid needs to go past these done to death identity confusion movies. David Dhawan and Priyadarshan have mastered this. I do feel Sajid is better than this. He showed that in his first film Heyy Babby.

    Writing is weak. Music is alright. Papa toh band bajaye is good.

    His direction is good but needs work on script. Dialogue is first rate, however. A lot of questions come and go unanswered. That is the writing at fault. Sajid needs to do films with a plot instead of this crap. Heyy Babby still remains his best film.

    Akshay Kumar is good. Still, his comedy is just not the same anymore. John is good. Ritesh is alrite. Shreyas is okay.

    Randhir, Rishi and Mithun are great actors and do their job but needed better roles.

    Asin is wasted. Rest are okay.

    Overall - A disappointment that is a decent pass time but still is the worst of Sajid's films.

    Loud and Entertaining Comedy.....

    "Housefull 2" sets a new trend in Hindi movies as loud and entertaining comedies with highly unbelievable and exaggerated situations which continued through "Khiladhi 786." The film tickles you most of the time with its non stop sequences of funny and stupid situations created throughout on mistaken identities and confusions created by its protagonists which gets twisted and grips to the very end supported by occasional drama and action. Though the overdose of comedies and improbabilities the comedy presents, the film still remains entertaining due to the fast pace and pleasantness created through its songs and dance. The old actors like Randhir Kapoor, Rishi Kapoor and Mithun look a bit weary in this film. However, I felt Akshay Kumar, John Abhram, and Asin were quite good in the film.

    Funny & Entertaining!

    A sequel to the 2010 Hit, Housefull, 'Housefull 2', Directed by Sajid Khan, is a Funny & Entertaining Film, that lives up-to the mark. Its Paisa-Vasool Entertainment, that never pretends to be anything else.

    'Housefull 2' tells the story of four fathers, four daughters and four prospective sons-in-law. Each father wants his daughter to marry the richest son-in-law. Each daughter thinks she is marrying the richest son-in-law. Each son-in-law is pretending to be the richest son-in-law. However, none of these people can stand each other and all of them are under one roof, in one house.

    'Housefull 2' is hilarious in parts. The First-Hour entertains, while the Second-Hour, when all the characters come under one roof, is equally entertaining & funny. Even the climax, though loud, its arresting. The Screenplay progresses rapidly & each character is memorable. Sajid Khan's Direction is fine. Music by Sajid-Wajid, is fabulous.

    Performance-Wise: Mithun is a delight to watch. His portions stand out, thanks to his performance. Rishi Kapoor & Randhir Kapoor are funny. Akshay Kumar is always dependable when it comes to comedy, and he does well yet again. John Abraham is ordinary, while Ritesh Deshmukh & Shreyas Talpade are only getting better. Boman Irani scores big time in a small role. Asin Thottumkal does a decent job. Jacqueline Fernandez, Zarine Khan & Shazahn Padamsee get very limited scope. Chunky Pandey & Johnny Lever bring the house down, they are impeccable. Ranjeet's Cameo, is fun.

    On the whole, 'Housefull 2' is a complete entertainer, that's not meant to be taken too seriously. Go, Have Fun!

    Worst Movie of a Lifetime

    Rotten tomatoes would had been a better option than Housefull 2.

    If Housefull was crap then Housefull 2 is a crap train.

    Its full of isolated non sense stuff that transcends the requirement of a filmmaking.

    Nowadays producers know a secret formula....Skinshow and India's ever increasing population. They know that India is such as place where there would never be any investment for hockey fields bu rather a whole lot of money will be thrown away to set up multiplexes to welcome movies like Houseful 2 & Players.

    Even though its way short of everything except non sense India is that country who would even stampede in order to run to theaters and get an early seat to watch these movies.

    I would go for N/10 - Non Sense
