The story revolves around the stuntman, Akshay, a womaniser, a non- believer in marriage, meeting the match of his life, Kareena, a model, who hates him to the core but who shares similar beliefs.
Kareena looks fabulous and does seem like wanting to return to top-level actress going by her bold figurelines.
Sylvester Stallone acclaims himself well with his short but effective role(he even gets to say the movie name in Hindi.) but Denise Richards almost had no role in this.
Akshay seems to be have lost his mojo, as he is signing up some of the most ridiculous movie scripts in recent times. To be fair to Akshay, this movie is better than the intolerable "Singhh is king". This move is a remake of a Tamil movie.
The most jarring part was the numerous instances of extremely coarse words used by Akshay and the idiotic ways of trying to elicit laughs out of the audience.
The irony was not lost on us when the film credits rollout that Akshay's stunt sequences in LA and Italy were the work of stuntmen.
Anu Malik's sounds were middling and couple of sings stick to your mind(Alisha Chenoy singing a very seductive 90's disco number and another melodious number "Kyun")
*The crackpot sequences:
Kareena, a hot shot model, does not have 5, 000 dollars to register for pre-med school, but wears some very expensive dresses which does not seem to gell with her situation.
Kareena, while operating on an injured Akshay, leaves a watch which spews out "Om Mangalam" but realizes her mistake, tries to sleep with him(atleast she thinks) to re-operate again on Akshay.
When Akshay is operated, the x-ray shows the watch is on his left side of the stomach, but in a later scene, the X-ray shows the watch has moved to the middle.
