User Reviews

Cheap Rip off Hollywood Movie Toy Soldiers

Andaz looks like a seemingly fun loving Bollywood film with top stars in this film. It is directed by David Dhawan who made many Hit movies in the past. Sadly the film is a complete bore with predictable and often cheap humour. The comedy is immature and looks like the script of a 7 year old child's. The movie stars Anil Kapoor who tries his best to be funny, but with a weak plot he couldn't save the film from being a Flop. Karishma Kapoor plays another unrealistic character like her usual roles and once again is a little irritating. Juhi chawla does look quite pretty and she does act a little good but her role is quite weak. The remaining supporting actors are average like Kader Khan and Shakti Kapoor. Raj Babbar was awful as the villain. The ending of the movie was a copy of another Bollywood Film Kranti Kshetra (1994) Mithun starrer. Which is also a copy of Low grade (But Fantastic) Movie Toy Soldiers.
