Priyanka is the showstealer of this movie. Her flawless and effortless acting make it an absolute pleasure to watch the character of Kiara go through a roller coaster of emotions from guilt, grief, and depression to jubilation, ecstasy, and love. Ranbir is also fantastic. He always gives a subtle but powerful performance. Both Priyanka and Ranbir's comic timing is right on the money, and the duo keep you in splits.
The script, the backbone of the film, is terrific. I can't give too many details without giving away the story here. The entire process of making the film, from cinematography and direction to the most minute details such as depicting accurate weather across the US in winter, has been done very professionally. I personally really like how the film confronts the difficult times that the US is going through and, in a fun, light-hearted, and fully entertaining way, turns a devastating situation into a positive one. The entire soundtrack is awesome with fresh, soul-stirring music. The movie is a great, fun experience and has repeat value.

I slept through this.Beginning was wonderful very funny and witty.Priyanka Chopra was in good spirits.Ranbeer Kapoor looked like Abhishek Bachchan's younger brother.he is not so good here.
Sidharth Anand directs this foolish script.its as awful as Salaam Namaste was.i don't know why our film makers go to US to shoot every second film.films like 3Idiots which showcase beauty of hill-side around Simla also show that their are breath taking locales here itself which remain untapped.
Direction is horrible,see Priyanka Chopra's ward robe in the film ,its just such a drag really awful.that red dress she wears in the bar make her look like an ethnic behanji.
this movie was so reminiscent of Neal & Nikki which starred Uday Chopra & Tanisha.Frankly that was so fresh this sucks like rotten tomatoes.Can't understand why producers spend such big money on making such awful stuff.Sajid Nadiadwal has ancient film line,could do something for film restoration.Nobody cares about our Indian classics.many films are already lost,most classic film negatives are in shambles.they can do better by investing their money in restoration of Indian classics.Government too does nothing .it does not even award people who work for restoring immortal classics.
Movie like these are a waste of time and money.

this is my first review on IMDb.
i registered to tell all of you how bad this movie is.
there is no story whatsoever, most of the events in the movie are not justified, ranbir appears bored as if he is being forced to do this film although priyanka does well.
there is some crude been-there-seen-that gay comedy which mostly falls flat. a couple of comic scenes do stand out for their originality. the rest of the movie is plain boring and a torture to sit through.
the film is technically brilliant though, with outstanding camera-work once again by Mr. Ravi Chandran, excellent music by vishal-shekhar and beautiful foreign locales.
i will go with a generous 4 out of 10 for this film only for the music and the cinematography. if u don't mind mental torture, go for this one!!

It has story of half an hour but exaggerated for 2 and half hour. Not so exciting yet predictable. But the music was awesome so 2 extra stars for that. Thank you.
The suicide attempt of two strangers gets inter-twined. "I scratch your back, you scratch mine" becomes the mission statement of their collaboration. What ensues next is flashbacks of their reasons to end their lives, discover each other and the beauty of life itself. Did I forget to mention all this in the process of futile suicide attempts?
♫ Priyanka Chopra:: Good writing in certain parts of her character though sometime she appears quite bubbly and sometimes low-down. Priyanka gives her best shot.
♫ Ranbir Kapoor:: Gets to showcase various emotion of the character and the layers to it. Delivers at ease. A black horse to watch out in the Bollywood arena.
♫ Zayed Khan:: He falters regardless of an intense scene, casual scene or melodramatic scene. Nonetheless, no great damage to the fly-in-the- ointment character.
For starters, the movie should have been "Anjaani Anjaana" for the premise of Priyanka Chopra has a greater depth which had the potential to leave lasting impact had the movie started on that thread. Ranbir's starting point is quite weak and ill-written. The plot could have connected well if it was based in India and the journey of the protagonist would have revolved around "Discovery of India". The weakest of the movie are the excessive cinematic liberties in the plot, hence the reference Kismet Konnection stated.
The outline of the plot is clueless whether it was meant to be comedy or love-story under the framework of suicide mission. Owing to which the writing is poor is both fronts.
The song "Aas Paas Hain Khuda" is a standard piece of line which is placed whenever there is Kismet Konnection moment. Having said that music is not as rich as "Hum Tum" or "Bachna Ae Haseeno".
With "Robot" released alongside I got the impression that AA suffered but frankly that wasn't the case. Even the multiplex crowd (read that generation next) could not fancy the meat in the plot. The only takers I suppose must have been Ranbir and Priyanka's fan-base.

- Alternate versionsThe UK release was cut, the distributor chose to remove references to and sight of a potentially dangerous suicide technique in order to obtain a 12A classification (in this instance, asphyxiation). An uncut 18 classification was available.
