Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Such a frustrating disappointment

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

I really wish I could think of something constructive to say about this film, but absolutely nothing comes to mind, and that's not because it's a remake of a Hollywood film, there is nothing wrong with a well-produced remake i.e Kasoor. Likewise, I have nothing against (or for) any of the actors/actresses in this film or the producer. Watched this with an open-mind with my mum and brother. Mum got up and left the room after half an hour, brother fell asleep halfway through and I was left waiting for this film to pick up. But it didn't. The humour was terrible - think the kind of jokes used three decades ago in Hindi films (example; one of the characters whistles every time he tries to talk and that is repeated throughout the film and that's supposed to be funny! The other says 'hello' pronouncing it 'hay-lo' and this is used for half the film and supposed to draw laughter every time. P-lease!) Some jokes were just downright offensive. The plot was simple enough to follow but felt like it was made up as the film went along. Probably the only saving grace is the ending - 3 minutes that actually gripped the viewer, but to be honest it was too little too late. This could have been a really good film had the rest of the film been made with the same level of creativity. As a bonus, Britney Spears' 'Stronger' video and Christina Aguliera's 'Dirrty' video are ripped-off for two of the songs in the film. You might just notice them if you manage to stay awake that long! If you are a fan of 'Jurm', 'Kasoor', 'Raaz', 'Yakeen' or any other decent Hollywood remake, stay clear of this. It does not entertain, let alone hold your attention. Be warned!

Fardeen Khan's overacting + Koena Mitra's lack of emotion plus the factor that 80% of this movie is based on American movies makes this a very uncomfortable movie to watch. Even in the end when all the twists and turns are untied, the viewer really does not get a good grasp of what they were watching for the past two hours. It is so obvious that Koena Mitra was hired just for her looks. I would not even be surprised to hear that the producers hired her even before they heared her talk. Her monotonous voice made me physically ill whenever she was talking. From start to finish, she has the same tone of voice, no change or variation. What the hell did the producers think, throw in a couple of middle aged man, dress them up so that they look hip. Give them KOOOL hair cuts and throw in a beautiful girl just to get the sex appeal, not considering if she can act or not, mix this all together with some techno music and, you'll have a hit?????? This movie should have been never created.

Hi Everyone, Some commentators have written that the movie is a copy of two Hollywood movies, most Bollywood movies are inspired by Hollywood and the songs are also often inspired without giving due credit.The plot is is quiet original for Bollywood, a Con man (Arjun) played by Fardeen has to steal money for a gangster (sikander) from another big shot banker/money launderer/business man (Jehangir Khan). I found the songs to be great as well.I enjoyed the movie because I had not seen the Hollywood movies the plot was inspired from. There is a lot of action and suspense. A very entertaining movie. Fardeen Khan plays his role really well and is well supported by the other cast. I found the main actress to be less glamorous, used to seeing the likes of Preity Zinta, BiPasha Basu and Ashwariya Rai. I guess I did not find her to be outstandingly "haseena" beautiful for the role.If you have not seen the Hollywood movies its allegedly inspired from and you like thrillers à la Bollywood with some good songs then I recommend you watch it or rent it. A good movie to watch on a rainy weekend.Bye, Jawad

In this film, Suparn Verma shows that he is good for copying copying copying. In the first half, he chooses to use the script of "Matchstick Men". When he grows weary of this, he decides to use that of Confidence, the 2003 film written by Doug Jung.This is not to say that all the acting in the film was bad. Feroz Khan once again proves his ability to act while his son, Fardeen, shows that he is truly a chip off the old block.Beyond this, the other main characters were par at best. The plot of the movie, though copied, is good and will have you guessing until the end. Next time, hopefully Verma will write something more original.
