CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
prateekhemdev The trailer of the movie did not create high expectations as it looked like a typical Bollywood action drama with John and Varun as these good looking cops. The movie actually was a pleasant surprise with catchy songs and sharp direction. Debutante Rohit Dhawan has done a great job by not wasting time and to the point story telling. John as an actor has not evolved a bit with his nice physique and poker face his performance is average. Jacqueline also is in her comfort zone doing the same poor performance. But, Varun has taken a lot of efforts to improve which can be seen in his chemistry with John. The exotic locations and Rahul Dev add some spice to the screenplay. Wagah played by Akshay Khanna is a total disappointment and in negative role evokes pity than fear. The overall experience was average and I would go with 7/10 for the efforts of Varun and Rahul Dev.
steffycyril When the movie was announced i was sure it would be fun.I was more excited to watch the film. The promotions promised full toss entertainment with catchy dialogues in their promotions.Each promos promised that it was a movie worthy to watch . Varun Dhawan is the most natural character in the movie.He has that charm that make us us laugh.John Abraham is also better compared to earlier movie with this director. About the lady characters,Jaqueline is the cutest.There is a good story spiced with item dances which is the masala in bollywood movies. But they are important in the film. It does not drag much as in usual one with dance sequences.The background scores are refreshing. Even the cameos were excellent.I love the way the songs gets balanced.The dialogues and facial expressions of Jaqueline is super compared to other films where they are just supportive.
oazam Varun Dhawan will keep you to the edge of your seat with his comedic performance as a cop. The action sequences were executed perfectly just like the helicopter scene. If you're a fan of pure 1990 masala entertainment, then this is definitely a film for you which has a mixture of action and comedy. Pritam has successfully delivered good energetic music and would want to make you stay for more during the film just like Sau Tarah Ke. It makes sense that since this is Rohit Dhawan's second film and they put a song from Desi Boyz called Subha Hona Na De in a remix version. Akshay Kumar in his cameo appearance role made it bearable as well as Nargis Fakhri and Parineeti Chopra. Akshaye Khanna's comeback was outstanding. You would want to stick for more because of him the way he plays the role as the kidnapper of Viraj Sharma, played by Saqib Saleem who also played his role really well. Despite its pros, lets get to the cons. After Welcome Back, I lost hope in John Abraham although Rocky Handsome was bearable. This time his role was below average. He was too dark and very quiet at times during the film. Jacqueline Fernandez was average during 1st half but during 2nd half, it lacked some sugar that I was expecting. The direction of the film is something that was a letdown. Ayananka Bose did a good job with the camera-work but the angles felt like I missed something in the movie. The editing was too sloppy and I felt that the editor added to too much that wasn't needed. Overall, the movie is decent in parts but does have its flaws.
Ankit Bhatnagar Nothing much to offer but it still never bores you. Redemption of no-plot is done by decent direction and an average performance by all the actors.Storyline Rating: 2 Content: 1 Commercialization: 4 Entertainment: 3Acting Rating: 3 Varun Dhawan: 3 John Abraham: 3 Saqib Saleem: 3 Jacqueline Fernandes: 3Direction Rating: 3Music Rating: 2Cinematography: 3Editing: 2
