3.0 out of 5 stars So Much More Potential, March 20, 2011

This review is from: Khatta Meetha (New Comedy Hindi Film / Bollywood Movie / Indian Cinema DVD) (DVD)

No matter what the fate of his earlier works, Priyadarshan has reached a stage where audience still remembers his glorious days and patronise his latest outing in a hoping for a gratifying experience. You & me fall into the "Khatta Meetha" trap for this very reason. The product is not too bad, but then not up to the mark either. The audience has a disconnect as there are many places where the plot loses steam. A little bit of sincere effort could have turned the tables. The product is glossy and music is peppy but that doesn't help much. Comedy is good only at certain places.

SANJEEV HASTIMAL SANDH (Mumbai, INDIA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Khatta Meetha (New Comedy Hindi Film / Bollywood Movie / Indian Cinema DVD) (DVD)

This movie's story is about a joint family's sons and son in laws who are construction contractors. Their father is an upright retired judge. But, the next generation is wiser about the "ways" of the world.

All hell breaks loose when one bridge construction by them collapses, killing about 60 people. Crimes are committed to frame a scapegoat. The youngest son (Akshay Kumar) of the judge (Kulbushan Kharbanda) is an oddity because he runs his own fledgling contracting business and is constantly facing a cash crunch. Murky events keep occurring. The dialogues hark on corruption in government contracts, which leaves little money to do quality jobs with standard and safe materials.

The ladies in the movie are the youngest and unmarried daughter of the judge (Urvashi Sharma) and the new Municipal Commissioner (Trishna Krishnan), a spinster who was once Akshay Kumar's college sweetheart.

The story is enlivened by Akshay Kumar's superb, pivotal performance and the extraordinary energy and acting from Rajpal Yadav, his worker and sidekick. Johny Lever delights in a small but effective role.

For once, Priyadarshan, the noted Director, has failed to make an engaging movie.
