    Some fun, mindless, Salman-style comedy

    This movie is nothing to write home about, but is a great Friday flick, just to laugh and unwind. As in Salman's films' unequivocal comic style of absurdly loud, in-your-face satire of Bollywood clichés, you'll find yourself puzzled by, and shortly thereafter resorting to laughing, at the same time embarrassed to find out that you can laugh to such silly comedy. Salman and Asin are both great. Songs are fun and entertaining from Dhinga Chika to Longawach remix. Asin gives a great performance as does Salman. The first half is more entertaining than the second, which starts to become a drag in some parts. All in all, the film's a good timepass.

    A film for the illiterate and uneducated

    This film has no proper story, no structure, nothing unique, typical salman style...What's so great about this film? Why is everyone loving it? Such mainstream rubbish in the name of entertainment...Look at the type of films that release everywhere in the world!

    Only this type of a film can do so well in India...Mindless, childish, stupid, superficial, badly made, cheap....Salman showing off his abs, no story, the dances were alright....But what was the point?

    When such innovative, provocative, and unique films get ignored in India, films like THIS, Welcome, Singh in Kinng, Houseful and all the other "MASALA" Rubbish become box office blockbusters...In a land where their is so much culture, tradition, history, folklore, etc etc, most Hindi films are either copies of foreign films or mimicry of western styles...The worst thing is that the audience prefers such mediocre films over quality...Meanwhile, mediocre films are also awarded and given publicity on T.V...Quality is completely ignored in India and this film is a disgusting example as to how such mediocrity can do well...

    I thought India was a land of intellect? Do people read in India? I would understand if such a film would do well in the rural parts, but even the middle class, so called "educated" public are going to watch this movie....

    Not Ready !!

    "Ready" is the proof that Bollywood can never go beyond starstruck audiences, loud and unnecessary irrational songs, weak- ludicrous and farcical story , slapstick humor for Whistle-blower's rejoice, pee-break and ensemble casts.

    Salman Khan was just being himself. Paresh Rawal did what he couldn't do in Hera Pheri. Asin was a waste. Rest casts were just for some ludicrous jokes. Zarine Khan was good enough for just a song.This movie was not a complete laughter riot, but very foolish in between. Avoidable.

    Salman Khan is bringing his A Game with every movie these days

    READY – CATCH IT ( A ) Salman Khan is bringing his A Game with every movie these days. It's his luck that every movie provides completely different kind of entertainment. From Wanted to Dabangg to Ready. This man has given some class entertaining movies. I hope bodyguard live up to expectations. Asin brings her charm to this big blockbuster, it was good to see her after "Gajni" into another Blockbuster. The Tapuri music also favors the movie, and they're shot in very fun entertaining way. Anees Bazmee directed a decent family movie which can everyone enjoy. I had great fun watching Ready with my friends. This movie is made for entertainment and to enjoy along with friends and families.

    Ye gods, can Indian cinema get any worse?

    It would seem that Indian cinema is in a downward spiral led by the desire of Akshay Kumar and Salman Khan to prove who is actually the worst actor in India and the most incapable of performing in comedy roles. If this effort is any indication to go by, Indian cinema is in a very, very, very bad state.

    Good points? Well, Asin as ever looks absolutely gorgeous and illuminates the screen every second she is on. Paresh Rawal is also as ever excellent. Some of the cameos are good. Err, a couple of the songs are excellent. That's about it I am afraid.

    Bad points? Way to many to list unfortunately. I am guessing this was an attempt at some slapstick humor Bollywood style but it missed the mark by such a long distance it is not funny (no really, it is not funny). Its a turgid 3 hours indeed when you don't even get anything remotely resembling a good laugh out of a comedy.

    Okay, we all know that Salman Khan cannot act to save his life but please, can we at least get one film without him removing his shirt to show off his physique? Its getting boring... and honestly it isn't that great. Some of the action sequences are laughably bad (sorry, there was a laugh in the film!), characters are clichéd beyond the ridiculous, the plot is non-existent (more like a collection of short films that may or may not be edited together in a coherent way), nothing in the way of originality to be found and they really didn't even take the opportunity to properly use some of the great locations Thailand would have given them.

    Basically a formulaic film to showcase the dubious talents of Salman Khan. The only reason it gets 4/10 is because of Asin - otherwise it would barely get 2/10. If you are looking for some mindless entertainment (or are obsessed with Salman Khan) then this might just about suit but there are definitely plenty better out there, even from Salman.
