Guys movie is funny watch it yourself. I must say I enjoyed it a lot, Movie holds the interest right till the end and loved the characters played. There are very few jokes that you wont feel laughing too but that doesn't spoil the taste of this movie.I have watched the movie first and then read the critics review don't know whats wrong with them but movie does deserve far better positive review.Its a family movie with a message, the village name is pagalpur you cant just ignore that, Shirish Kunder has certainly thought the movie through to the end, Darshan Jariwala and Asrani is hilarious I am not sure if you would like Shreyas Talpade much but he did have to say lot in the movie.If you ignore the critics this time you will have your time spend well watching this movie. Enjoy

Joker, the name itself is a joke. When I had first seen the trailers and heard about the movie, I knew that it would not be worth it. Still after 'Rowdy Rathore', expectations were semi-high from its Jodi of Akshay Kumar and Sonakshi Sinha. Moreover, I had faith in its director Shirish Kunder after he delivered good movie like 'Jaan-E-Mann'. But alas his Joker is not even an inch closer to this expectation. This famous editor has proved that he can over-do himself as a director. Nightmare! The story-line is very lame.Here Akshay Kumar plays Agastya (please don't think of Jaan-E-Mann) a dedicated NASA scientist and Sonakshi Sinha plays Manali, his good-looking, understanding life-partner. Agastya returns to India and visits his homeland 'Paglapur' with Manali after hearing his dad breathing his last breath. He is utterly shocked by the downtrodden condition of Paglapur and then finds out that his dad's illness was just a fluke to get him back home and do something worthwhile to give a new lease of life to the ever neglected mad place. Apparently, the village has lost its identity ever since a Britisher forgot to place Paglapur on the Indian map. So, the administrators are also clueless as to under whose jurisdiction Paglapur exists. This situation has made the place remain devoid of the basic amenities like electricity, water which is why the inhabitants are going eccentric. In the meantime, Agastya emerges as the savior to improve Paglapur by re-gaining its electricity and water supply. He chalks out an absurd plan to grab attention of media followed by the administrators, and eventually the scientists from USA. However, here I find it interesting that how Akki decorates this scheme by dressing up few villagers with finely-cut vegetables to make them pose as 'aliens' in front of the whole bunch of reporters, all just to garner curiosity and make Paglapur the prime place in news. Eventually chaos occurs but of course the unexpected happens and Paglapur gets the due it long deserved. It's to be mentioned that alien's dancing in Bollywood style in the end of the movie left everybody in awe with a smile on their face (at least). Otherwise throughout the movie I kept looking for a single moment where I could go on smiling, if not laughing. Akshay Kumar's acting failed to impress because of Kunder's blunder direction. Sonakshi Sinha hardly has any role (ornamental purpose). Shreyas Talpade only kept on gibbering 'Kalaa Kalaa Guss Guss' which becomes irritating as the movie proceeds and so are the other villagers. The only 'feel-good' and energetic factor in the movie is when the dusky beauty Chitrangada Singh oozes out the hotness in the item number titled Kafirana. After a thorough analysis all I wonder if Kunder deserves another slap. A box office oriented slap (remember SRK slapping him at Sanjay Dutt's party early this year)? Well, let the viewers decide.

Don't be fooled by the poor rating and poor reviews this movie has got. This movie deserves far better. It is one of those rare Bollywood movies where a lot of thought has gone behind the 'title'. 'Joker' is not about any central character in the movie. Rather, it is about an important underlying issue in the context of the country.The theme is – It has been more than 70 years since independence and yet nothing seems to have changed for the villages and villagers in the countries. No political party is willing to do anything for them. They are the forgotten lot in today's India by both the media and the politicians. That it could take something as outrageous as aliens landing in one of the villages for anyone to take a serious note of them or their plight is the central message of the movie. It is a very well-crafted story with all the actors playing their part efficiently. In short, this movie tries to convey an important message in a light hearted manner. So, don't go expecting a slapstick comedy because this is not a slapstick comedy but this movie provides for some funny moments. And all the songs in this movie are definitely worth lending your eyes to with 'Jugnu' being the pick of the lot.In short – if you go expecting a slap stick comedy and fail to appreciate the underlying theme of the movie, you will give this movie a very low rating. Otherwise, you will definitely appreciate this movie as one of the better ones in recent times. You can do much worse than watching this movie!!
