First of all, this movie is a romantic comedy. As such, it really only needs two ingredients to work, obviously comedy and romance. The first half is entertaining and full of laughs. The humor is crude, sexual, and sometimes vulgar, but it's not delivered in a cheap way. This movie is NOT intended for the traditional Bollywood audience. There is no shying away from kissing and showing of skin. The movie takes place mostly in Los Angeles, so there's a very western feel to it. Kareena looks great. Akshaye looks good as usual. I think the two work well together in this movie.

As for the plot, it's predictable. It begins as a "battle of the sexes", so to speak, which eventually gives way to a love story between Kareena and Akshaye in the second half. However unoriginal and disappointing this may seem, this really isn't very different from any other Bollywood movie.

In closing, the film is visually appealing (ie. everyone looks good and is dressed well) and the music is relatively catchy. The movie is not ground breaking, but I think it's definitely a nice change of pace, if not risky by bollywood standards. If you are not uncomfortable with a liberal sense of humor and you are looking for a good laugh, I would recommend this movie.
