Movie Review : No Problem


Directed by : Anees Bazmee.
Cast : Sanjay Dutt, Anil Kapoor, Sushmita Sen, Sunil Shetty, Akshaye Khanna, Paresh Rawal, Kangana Ranaut.

This movie is brought up by Anees Bazmi of No entry, Singh is King fame. Perhaps you could see a trend here. The no-brainer, goofy fun with some spicy songs. The same formulae is being applied to this movie as well.

Anil kapoor is an honest but a foolish inspector. Sanjay & Akshaye are two small time crooks who rob paresh rawal's bank and so he comes after them to recover the money. Suniel shetty is high end criminal with a gang consisting of Neetu chandra (in a sexy role) and Ranjeet (pity).

The story goes like this. Suniel and his gang steals a bag ful of jewelery from a store with support from a local politician. Sanjay and Akshaye steal those diamonds from that politician after much tom foolery and so the gang goes after them. In between we have Kangana thinking of herself as the most beautiful girl in the planet and her sister sushmita married to Anil Kapoor. Sushmita got a split personality because of being married to a fool. And her other part wants to kill Anil all the time.

There are fair amounts of funny moments in the movie. Like the one Kangana was comparing herself to miss universe (Something has happened to her face, dont know what, but shes not the same innocent/beautiful face from Life in a metro) or most of the scenes where Sush is trying to kill Anil. Or the friendly neighbourhood conversations between Paresh and Akshaye and Sanjay.

The songs also dont compare favourably with "No Entry" with only one "Mast Punjabi" making some mark.
The movie is set in South Africa (mostly in Durban) and its a beautiful setting.

Overall you might get the value for your money depending on your mood. But dont have high expectations form it. The comedy is not as good as No Entry but is average, clean, family humour. If not for the rushed/abruptly ended climax, the movie could have done better.

Rating **1/2
