Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

aaronbir I enjoyed this watchable film it was so hilarious there was lots of good action good comedy and good actingAkshay Kumar is excellent as the funny hero Shahid did wellActress did good in her movie Other were much decent My rating 10/10 or 5/5 *****\***** or **********\**********

silvan-desouza After the success of APD, The team Akshay, Suneil, Aftab(cameo), Paresh Rawal, Music Director Anu Malik, Producer Firoz Nadiadwala and Director return with Deewane Huye Paagal. The film is a remake of There's Something About Mary(1998) which is a cult comedy and very famous in Hollywood, In fact earlier it was remade in Pyaar Ishq Aur Mohabbat(2001) by Rajiv Rai but he changed it into a romantic film and it flopped, Vikram Bhatt however keeps it a comedy. Vikram Bhatt is known to make remakes, his most films were remakes. The film released in 2005 just few weeks after the success of GARAM MASALA when Akshay Kumar's comedies were successful but surprisingly it failed to work. Perhaps the promotions gave people an indication that it was an out n out comedy but because it was a romantic comedy it didn't work? The film starts off on a slow note, the initial scenes are hardly that good and the irritating narration of Vivek Oberoi is painful, The fun starts once Akshay is introduced. Compared to that film, Here Vikram Bhatt adds lot of action, more slapstick comedy and song and dance. There are some scenes copied same to same like the dog scenes which are not too funny in recreation, There also add a new character of Paresh Rawal,Johny Lever which weren't there in the original. Some scenes are funny like Akshay's escapades, The scene when the truth is revealed of characters and the chaos But the added subplot of Suresh Menon, Om Puri doesn't really evoke mirth In fact the comedy at several portions is too slapsticky and the ending focuses more on action like APD and the end just like the original but more overdone is okay.Direction by Vikram Bhatt is good Music by Anu Malik is good, Chakle Chakle which is a copy of an English song is okay, It's sung by Anu Malik and he is good Anu Malik also lends his voice for Mere Jaane Jigar and sings superbly The best song is Aisi Umar MeinAkshay Kumar dominates the show, Unlike in APD where Paresh dominated He does a superb job in a comic role, Those days Akshay Kumar's comic bone was getting utilised a lot after the success of MSK and Garam Masala. Shahid Kapur is decent but is mostly overshadowed by others. Rimii Sen is annoyingly dubbed and doesn't look good, blame it on her make up and all she doesn't look fit for the role, but her acting is okay Suneil Shetty overdoes his walking to add to the fun of the character but he does provide some funny moments. Paresh Rawal gets some funny scenes but it's nothing great unlike in APD. Johny Lever is funny, but irritates at times Suresh Menon annoys, Om Puri is as usual, Supriya is funny Asrani and other sre okay

Biswajit Tripathy One of the horrible movie I have ever watched. I saw this movie in Mumbai, my last ever picture in Mumbai. I paid Rs. 200/- to watch the movie and the movie wasn't worth 25/- even.Akshay hams too much in the movie so are Sunil, Paresh & all others. The only saving grace of the movie was Rimi Sen who was fresh out from Dhoom then. She certainly is improving film after film. She was good in Hungama. She plays the same kind of role. In Hungama there were two guys after her. In this movie, there are seven characters who are after her. I don't want to waste my time writing review of the movie coz there is no story altogether.A must skip.

notyoaveragechic I walked out of the film, i paid 9 dollars to watch one of the years worst comedies. The acting was horrid in the film. Akshay Kumars excessive crotch banging and Sunil Shetty's horrible portrayal of Tucker from something about Mary would make anyone wan to walk out. This is definitely the worst American remake ever. The songs weren't even original one was the beat of Kevin Littles hug me hug me and the other of jazzy b's dil lutiya. The best song would be the remix of Chakle Chakle, thats it and it might be stolen too. I walked into the theater thinking this should be good because its the Hera Pheri cast, but two hours into it i stopped hoping for something funny and original to come out. I say watch the film on DVD, you might even think you've wasted your money there.
