Review :
A Chase Worth Missing out on
This movie is crazy. Now that's acceptable for a comedy but what is Priyadarshan trying to do.
Though he is quite innovative in creating a few scenes - on the whole he fails miserably in delivering a well packaged ride. I saw this movie albeit after a delay and expected a lot. After all getting to see Govinda join the fun-fare and great promos of the movie were very promising.
But it turned out to be a damp squib. The director fails miserably to conjure up the magic of 'Hera Pheri,' and this time around he seems to have totally lost the plot.
Govinda is wasted since even the best actor requires a script, Akshay Kumar is passable and does what's necessary, Paresh Rawal is nowhere half as humorous as he was portraying Baburao Ganpatrao Apte (Hera Pheri- 2000), the females are there to be forgotten.
The plot or what little there is to it, revolves around the desi stage troupe of Champak Chaturvedi (Paresh Rawal). His lead pair is Bunty (Akshay) and Babla (Govinda). The troupe gets its best break when Asrani offers them a chance to tour London for a month. Alas the heroine (Tanushree Datta) runs away having had enough of these two who keep coming on strong.
So the troupe reaches London and the chase begins to find a leading lady. Akshay meets up and enlists Lara Dutta despite her suicidal tendencies and affinity to fling herself before speeding cars
. Crazy enough
hold on.
It gets crazier with these two getting all mixed up with criminals thinking them to be the police and vice-versa
plus there are a few local goons headed by Shakti Kapoor who is also after them to extract revenge for his fractured limbs. Rajpal Yadav is good as a taxi driver and Jackie Shroff struts along occasionally as the local police chief.
Hold on
there is still something more, this chase gets now real complicated with a murder mystery attached to it. This comes across as a real spoiler... and I need not say more.
Left the way it is
a crazy senseless chase with all the misconceptions, the movie shows promise with funny moments to tickle the audience and dialogues to boot. But this mystery angle comes along and simply spoils everything.
Sanjay Dutt is supposed to have a guest appearance so watch the first 30 minutes closely.. I for one sure missed out on him. And for some reason the climax seems inspired from - It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World (1963)
Once done with, I am confused whether to call it a comedy or a tragic comedy. Watch it in the theatre if you really have nothing better to do. Or else wait for the DVD release and watch it at home
better still
borrow it
cause though this chase is humorous on occasions
most of the time it gets to you with its unnecessary complexities and simply not worth spending much on.
