GaneshKSalian Rascals directed by David Dhawan is just abysmal,boring,cheap,vulgar and offensive.Talented actors like Ajay Devgn(Singham:2011),Arjun Rampal(Ra.One:2011,Kangana Ranaut(Tanu Weds Manu:2011)and Sanjay Dutt(Munnabhai series) have been wasted in this movie.There is not even a single joke that will make you laugh.Some jokes in the first and second hour to the extent will make you smile! What makes me give this hopeless movie 2 stars is for Arjun Rampal and Kangana Ranaut.Arjun Rampal shines in the movie as Anthony Gonzalves and Kangana looks fresh! Story:-Chetan Chauhan (Sanjay Dutt) and Bhagat Bhosle (Ajay Devgn) are petty thieves who have run from India to Bangkok.In Bangkok,they plan to loot a rich girl Khushi (Kangana Ranaut).Both try to upstage each other in wooing her.While in India,Anthony Gonzalves (Arjun Rampal),is searching for Chetan and Bhagat since they have looted him of his car and money.The comedy scenes are offensive and cheap.David Dhawan known as King of Comedy movies,should now be known King of Cheap Comedies.(earlier being Do Knot Disturb) The dialogs are unfunny.The music is average.The story is nothing to talk about.Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgn are disappointing.Kangana Ranaut is cute and fresh-looking.Arjun Rampal is the best of all.Chunky Pandey and Satish Kaushik are saddening.All in all,Rascals is a disaster!

cool-smith Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgn play two cool con men trying to outdo each other. The competition reaches an all-new level when both fall for the same girl, the pretty and petite Kangna Ranaut, and both men constantly attempt to outmanoeuvre each other to win her. Sanju and Ajay work together with an exuberant and high spirited ease and that, surely, is a joy to watch. Even though Sanju has been doing comedies ever since the beginning of his career, it has only been in the last few years that Ajay has discovered his funny bone, courtesy films like GOLMAAL series, ALL THE BEST and DIL TOH BACCHA HAI JI. The comic timing of the two actors is simply fantastic! Sanju and Ajay work together with an exuberant and high spirited ease and that, surely, is a joy to watch.

bobbysing David Dhawan directing a film called RASCALS with Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgan in comic roles was indeed a promising news. The promos looked good and few songs were also being noticed. But this was the scenario only before the release of the film and now after watching it I have a completely different story to tell quite sadly.In the past, David Dhawan has been accused many times of copying from both the Foreign as well as our own Indian movies. Plus he was also into using the double meaning dialogues and songs to win over his viewers in those successful years of films featuring Govinda and Karishma Kapoor. Unfortunately in his latest venture too, David doesn't move away from his same old overused path and continues to use both these formulas in RASCALS in a rather disappointing way.Firstly, writing his extremely weak storyline, the director and his writers take all their inspiration from an English Classic "Bedtime Story" (1964) which also revolves around two con-men trying to fool a rich lady and which was again remade as "Dirty Rotten Scoudrels" in 1988. Adding his own contribution in the script, David changes a wheel chair ridden imposter (in the Original films) into a fake blind man (Ajay Devgan) in RASCALS. But then later on strangely returns to the wheel chaired man again in the end as a loyal follower of the original. Interestingly this same plot and many similar sequences were earlier copied by Bollywood in three films namely, "Johar Mehmood in Hongkong" (1971), "Khel" (1992) and then partially in the famous "Andaz Apna Apna" (1994).Secondly this time, David goes even further in using the double meaning dialogues along with a lot of skin show by both Kangna and Lisa in the film. In fact, the sequences and dialogues used in these particular sequences even surpass all his previous films and can be easily termed as 'Vulgar', which usually work in the smaller centers. The film starts off well with a better first half but in the later reels it gives you many unwanted boring scenes like the one in the deserted church with Satish Kaushik. So, with very few enjoyable comedy sequences, RASCALS is not able to deliver as per the expectations raised by all the talented names in its team. David stumbles several times in his script and direction. Soundtrack only gives you few catchy double meaning raunchy numbers as usual. The ladies are only there to shed off their clothes just at the word "Go". The supporting cast continuously hams in their badly written roles. And the leading heroes tend to shout more than act in the whole film. Though both Ajay and Sanjay have successfully played many comical characters in their recent films, but the same cannot be said for RASCALS.In short David Dhawan's new madcap entertainer is surely mad but strictly not entertaining as per its promises made. But if you are really interested in con-men films then do watch both "Bedtime Story" and "Dirty Rotten Scoudrels" to know the difference in treatment given to the plot by their respective directors.

vidit chopra We went into this movie with the thought that this might actually turn out to be nice. The promos released were kind of attractive and showed that this might be a refreshing comedy. Sanjay Dutt and Ajay Devgn, not the biggest stars around but good actors nonetheless added to the hype and yet what we got was nothing but pure lame, pointless, idiotic and humor that doesn't do justice to its definition.This is one movie that you go in with the thought, 'These rascals might be entertaining' and come out with the thought, 'Was that entertainment? Bloody rascals!'David Dhawan has given us a number of comedy flicks in the past and most of them, more often than not have worked. This one doesn't come even close to being the best and doesn't come close to be called as good humor either!The story line doesn't make sense or in fact there isn't a story line at all!Heights of over acting are on display by all the three leads, namely, Ajay Devgn, Sanjay Dutt and Kangna Ranaut (who I personally hate as an actor).The movie opens with a set of 2D animations for the credit which was innovative yet pointless. Throughout the movie there is this constant rhyming going on dialogue after dialogue which we presume is to make them funny but are plain lame and don't came close to make them funny. The character names for Sanjay Dutt (Chetan) and Ajay Devgn (Bhagat) are supposed to in some way make some kind of mocking at Chetan Bhagat but I doubt it was anywhere near being successful in doing so.The plot too is stale and there is no twist whatsoever to catch your eye but well you can't expect that from an Indian comedy unless making light of poverty, charity, handicap or a sexed-up version of Andaz Apna Apna meets Jodi No 1 meets Deewana Mastana meets Bluffmaste is your idea of a joke, those laugh lines won't budge.Sadly, Bollywood comedies thrive on double meanings but that too has gotten so stale that it rarely brings a laugh. The fact is the over acting rises to heights that it doesn't appears that it is supposed to make you laugh! Throughout the movie, there were punches being delivered by the rascals on screen but they were so stale, so boring, and not even worth calling a PJ. The writer should be delivered all the punches back and in a different sense altogether!It made us laugh just once throughout the movie and that scene too wasn't as funny to leave a mark for I have been racking my brain to remember what it was and yet I fail!It made us laugh at another point though but it was not because of the on screen rascals, it was because of a couple of off screen rascals who were talking of breaking the LCD of the theater, yes 'THE LCD' when the sound went off for some reason. Those guys were funnier than the on screen rascals.Some of my friends can be funnier than these rascals!Coming to the acting bit, well I, on a personal level am a fan of Sanjay Dutt's work and Ajay Devgn has impressed in the last couple of movies but yet, as stated there has been too much of over acting and well, with a script like that, no one can make the movie funny in any way whatsoever. I won't talk about Kangna Ranaut for I hate her hence I might get a bit biased and a bit too negative. About Lisa Haydon or Hayden whatever her name is, she has been portrayed as a prostitute and that's her character! All in all, this is one movie that can easily give competition to Double Dhamaal which I had already presumed to be the worst comedy Bollywood movie of the year, but this one has surely given Double Dhamaal a strong competition. Even a no brainer should have some sort of sense and this one has nothing to offer!We give it a, I don't know, it might be a bit too much for the movie but still a 0.3/5 just for that scene which made me laugh and yet I fail to remember!In short, pure bullshit and a waste of time and money!
