6/10
Not upto the mark - good fun though.

After the unprecedented success of Hera Pheri, here is more of that good stuff.

Pros : Once again its great to see this unexpected together. The chemistry remains top notch. The 3 characters have heavy roles with their own wizardry to match them. Akshay is suave, rich yet left wanting for more. Sunil remains the good man with the standard pessimistic approach to Akshay. In the middle is Paresh Rawal and bundles of humour.

This plot is set off promisingly with a concept of having gained, lost all and now trying to get it back! :)

Cons : - What made Hera Pheri amazing was the original dialogue and interaction between the characters and how the final story tied itself well with the sub-plots. This is not so here because the director decided to lift the latter half of the story from "Lock Stock and 2 Smoking barrels" which is a big shame because the story only gets confused and dragged into the region of "when is this going to get over"

  • Tabu, who was effectively the 4th character is gone, we are left with some eye candy fillers who not only look out of place but with very poor roles.


Still fun to watch if one does not have very high expectations.
