Featured review
This is definitely one of the better movies to have been released this year as well as one of the better comedies, which has action, drama and a bit of thriller mixed in with romance.
Happy Singh, who everyone in his village wants to get rid off, even though he wants to ensure that everyone is happy and he helps everyone that he can , leaves his village in the Indian state of Punjab, with his friend Rangeela, who is able to speak some English instead of Happy, to got to Australia to bring back his friend, Lucky. But there's slight hitch en route, as they accidentally end up in Egypt and have to re arrange everything.
Starring Akshaye Kumar, Katrina Kaif, Kirron Kher, Om Puri, Javed Jaffrey, Sonu Sood, Manoj Pahwa and Neha Dhupia, this is written and directed by Anees Bazmee.
As I have mentioned previously, that this is one of the better comedies this year and Akshaye Kumar along with Om Puri, has again proved his talent in this genre. The same applies to Sonu Sood and Manoj Pahwa. Unfortunately, there's not much comedy involved for Katrina, though she has done a good job where it was required in a couple of scenes. Javed Jaffrey has, once again, put on the same type of accent that he did in "Salaam Namastey" and in which he proved to have done so well. Unfortunately, for him, this is not applicable here at all as he failed to make that impact. However, Sonu Sood was convincing in his role as a "Don." Finally, Kirron Kher! As usual she delivers the perfect role.
There are plenty of flaws and one is that is that if "Happy" is unable to speak a word of English, then how come that he is able to speak some words such as "shut up" and also understands what is being said to him? This is where the writer and the director has made an error. Never the less it is an average good comedy that is worth watching once Oh! Just one last point and that is make sure that you leave your "thinking" grey cells at home and intact.
