rohanal Ignore the other ratings! I get that some other Hindi comedy movies are so mindless and stupid they are not funny, but this movie is smart, exciting, and hilarious without being overly stupid. I have watched this over 5 times and it does not get old. Akshay Kumar is one of the funniest and most talented actors, and this movie includes many other famous comedy actors. A must see!!
muhidul7 This is the story of two friends (Nitin & Ram) who are lucky in love but not in wealth. Their quest for money make them kidnapping a dog. The dog ran away to its master but she was manipulated to ransom over his missing servant who appeared to be Nitin. They had to manage to get the ransom money & also keep up with their love. With a hilarious & dying effort, they made keep both ends.First, this ratings of mine may seem ridiculous. But the movie met its quota for both comedy & entertainment fantastically & also the great acting must be mentioned. I saw the movie first time & it appeared to me as normal average movies, but when I skimmed through it for the second time, it became one of my favourite movies.
silvan-desouza Priyadarshan started off the trend of Situational comedies starting of with Hera Pheri, Hungama but slowly the trend got repetitive De Dana Dan is perhaps the last comedy film by him, hopefully. The film has such a huge cast, we can get lost, it has Akshay, Sunil, Katrina, Sameera, Vikram Gokhale, Manoj Joshi, Shakti Kapoor, Johny Lever, Rajpal Yadav.etc Priyadarshan always known as the guy who is the best in aking confusion come alive on screen goes overboard this time and the film gets irritating, we have similar stock characters, the comedy dies down and gets boring For some reason Akshay is locked in a cupboard for half the film, The climax shows a flood in the hotel(shot in Mumbai) and the confusion is not solved.Direction by Priyadarshan is so-so Music by Pritam is good, Baamulaiza is a good song though Sunil's steps look odd, rest are okayAmongst the huge cast Akshay Kumar is as usual in his role, lending a few laughs, Suneil Shetty too is decent in his part, Katrina annoys with a dubbed voice and adds nothing, Sameera Reddy is okay, Tinnu Anand is loud, ManoJ Joshi screams throughout, Vikram GOkhale is okay, Sharat Saxena is as usual, Johny Lever is funny, Rajpal is as usual, Shakti Kapoor is as usual rest are okay
sidhu-karma Expectations were High! Cult movie(Hera pheri)'s team reunited for a comedy film but with a wrong script. Priyadarshan's comedies origin from confusion. In this movie, only confusion origin from confusion. The story is of two friends who need money, whether for their girls or for something else, its confusing. They end up being in a hotel where countless events occur which leave you so much confused that you repent buying ticket. It starts well, with Akshay and Archana's sequences which lasts for about 20 minutes. After that, you just wait for a funny dialogue and it comes when Akshay and Archana reunite in late second half. One and half hour is dedicated to confusion which ideally should have generated at least couple of gags. The climax is way too stretched. The movie could have been trimmed at least for about one hour. If it was one and half hour movie, I might give it 5 or 6/10 but for two and half hour long movie which has only four or five gags, no way!!! It is waste of time, money and your brain. Better don't try to understand the story because there is no story. It is all about confusion. Performances: Akshay Kumar delivered what he did before also, although his role was restrained. Archana Singh was good. Suniel Shetty, Paresh Rawal, Johnny lever, and the brigade of other 15 or 16 actors acts but does not bring any smile.Final Verdict : Just because "leave brain at home" kind of comedies have been Super hits in past that we are facing these kind of movies. Bollywood really need to mature. Mr.Priyadarshan should take a long rest from comedies and come up with something like Hera Pheri again. If you have decided to watch, then watch the first 20 minutes and then forward rest till you see Akshay and Archana Singh together!!
