User Reviews

An Average movie

I was waiting for this movie for long and movie didn't fully disappoint me. This is an average movie but dialogs are good. One more thing you can see the movie with full family. There is no vulgarer scene in the movie. Charactores are many four heros, four heroines and there four fathers. But still Sajid directed it so well that it didn't seems overloaded. point to Sajid for that. Songs are great and sexy must watch. If we talk about acting then every actor got a small part of the movie. so there was not much of acting shown scene for most of them. But Akshay has done the same with his old movies typical Akshay comedy. Asin is good but same no bid work for her in the movie. Shazahn Padamsee is looking hot in the song. Story is not there as this is only to put all characters in one film. so they make adjustment. then some new character came and again some adjustment and so on........ But this is the movie you can watch you will not be bored with the movie. full movie is full of comedy not the best but in some place it is good. So enjoy the movie.
