I laughed through this one the entire movie. It contains a well written script that will appeal to young folks and even older couples in love. Siddarth and Amala pull off their rolls as a confused couple as they work to sort things through. There is plenty of good advice given here as well and makes you step back and realize just how things can easily go wrong at times. This is a nice family friendly flick. The music is a bit boring, but the lyrics are more important than the tunes themselves. A super nice change where a lot of Tamil films have great music but terrible story lines and acting. Though it is a romance-comedy, there is a bit more comedy in this one so even guys will like it. I recommend watching with your special loved one.
This is an action flick through and through, but it gets old watching nothing but anger and fighting every 5 minutes through the whole movie. Sunny Deol and Prakash Raj play their parts well a contrasting good and evil, but that is lost when it's played out over and over. The three leading ladies basically over act killing any hope of at least adding some interesting parts. They just seem to have been added for eye candy. Johnny Lever's and Sanjay Mishra's characters are out of whack and I wasn't sure why there were even in the movie unless someone thought that would be the comical part (they are not most of the time). The music is decent and the dance scenes are good, but they fail to revive the boredom. There is an underlying message, but it seems like it took 2 hrs and 20 minutes to get to it in the end. If all you want is impossible action scenes of super human feats, then maybe it's worth a watch, but if you want an action flick with substance and decent story that helps move things along, then this one will not do.
OK, this is a goofy movie (the tag line is: Go Wakda (wacky)) so if you are expecting superb entertainment, you are out of luck. But, Rani Mukerji really shines as a nut job and really makes this movie laughable fun. I vote for her to star in the next Houseful 3 as her wackiness would work well in that series. You need to appreciate the wacky humor that comes with the Golmaal, Houseful, or Masti/Grand Masti series to enjoy his one. If that is not your style of humor, look elsewhere. Meenakshi's family is truly dysfunctional and adds to the humor. Meenaski's friend and co-worker Mynah comes across as an Indian Lady Gaga and is somewhat funny, but a little annoying at times. When Meenakshi dreams about being her favorite actresses is probably the funniest parts, so it helps to have a good background on some older Bollywood hits and veteran actresses to get a laugh at those scenes. The music is catchy, though some of the dance sequences are a bit risqué which is slightly unusual for Rani. Nothing terrible, but slightly not family safe for younger members. Prithviraj's character is played well especially in the end. Not a hit, but good goofy fun if you are looking for a good laugh.
