House full - why was the show house full?

This yet another Sajid Khan's movie. As if I didn't ask the question "why does he make movies?" after I saw Heyy baby..I stepped into this movie too. And yes, not very surprisingly I asked the same question after I stepped out of this movie..."Why the hell does he make movies?".

Lets start from the very beginning. The movie starts with a song about how unlucky Akshay Kumar is..and the words of the song..are pathetic. It sounds worse than a poem being recited. If you think I may have over reacted..sample this "he is a panauti..." so go the words.
The comes the script..was there any story? Its just another All the best. The same old some lies being spoken, some more to cover it up and then so much confusion added just to keep it all going and create a pseudo comedy effect.
The acting is pathetic and overdone. The dialogues don't make you want to laugh. The only reason you might laugh is just because your desperate to leave the screen and get back to a saner world. The three ladies are there just to try and keep the screens house full, since they wear bikinis and dance away to songs for no rhyme or reason. Chunky Pandey and his "Im just joking" really doesn't fit into the movie. And the worse part being the premise of the movie...Akshay Kumar's bad luck! How on earth can someone really really think of making a movie on this theme? I know India is a country where people do believe in luck etc but to go out and make a movie on the same, I find very dumb.
The end to the movie was also too senseless and not well directed. It ends up with all the people including the Queen of England (I don't know why she was needed here) laughing out their wits (since "santa-banta" leave the room filled with laughing gas) while the lead characters clear up the confusion that has built up.

A really really sad state of comedy films for bollywood. A senseless and brainless movie is NOT a comedy flick.Our industry is maturing and comedy is the piece that still lacks in content and luster.
