Entertainment Movie Review

Here is the review for the movie Entertainment. Watch out this space for more updates!
Rating:1/5 Review By:Mohar Basu Site:Koimoi
Entertainment is a painful exercise to sit through and when a cute retriever with all the fuzziness cannot retrieve you from boredom, blame it on the film. Akshay Kumar was almost as bad as his Once Upon Aye Time In Mumbaai Dobaara performance. As for the rest of the Entertainment team, filmmaking isn’t as trivial as they think it is. Slog for it in their next film and probably then there will be some stars for them.

Entertainment does have some well-meaning attempts to give a better status to dogs than Bollywood has bequeathed them. Entertainment may assure viewers early on that no animals were harmed during the making of the film. But after 2 hours and 20 minutes one can say with certainty that an animal looked thoroughly bored during it.

Akshay returns to the comfort zone [comedies] and expectedly, is charismatic, charming and vibrant. His faultless comic timing coupled with the enthusiasm with which he goes through his part is worthy of immense praise. Tamannaah is endearing and though she’s paired with Akshay for the first time, they compliment each other wonderfully well. On the whole, ENTERTAINMENT is a joy ride that lives up to its title. Go, laugh out loud and get entertained!

Akshay Kumar is back to enthral the audiences with a simple yet “entertaining” film – ‘Entertainment’. And make no mistake; the film is very much unlike the slew of comedy films we have had in the recent past. ‘Entertainment’, for a change, comes across as a clean film with a message that each of us will most definitely appreciate. Nonetheless, they do succeed in sending out a message strong and loud enough- to treat animals with respect and love. If you like watching clean films and wish to take your family along for a movie, then ‘Entertainment’ best suits your requirement.

Fat jokes, dogs attacking crotches, mistaken identity, puns — all you get in Entertainment are overused tropes and terrible clichés. It says a lot about how starved for real entertainment this country is when Entertainment, with its stale jokes and stupidity, gets a laugh.
Rating:1/5 Review By:Rohit Khilnani Site:India Today
Akshay Kumar is impressive as always. He is in good shape and he plays his part with sincerity. Tamannaah does her fair bit in the scenes that she has. The funniest is the comedy king Johnny Lever who never ever fails to make you laugh. Rest of the cast is wasted in inconsequential roles. Don't go by the title, it's sure called Entertainment but only if that was enough!
Rating:3/5 Review By:Subhash K. Jha Site:IANS
In the hilarious opening, where in a product-endorsement spoof with Riteish Deshmukh, Akshay establishes his character as a rogue and a charlatan, the film hops skips and jumps through hilarious hoopla, sometime generating a reluctant laughter in the audience, at other times leaving you a little numbed by the fatuous flavour of the farce.
Holding the film from falling apart is Akshay Kumar. Sporting and sometimes sparkling with his comic timing, he helps the audience to over over the serious silliness of some of the material in the second-half where, in a style of cat-and-mouse game of "Home Alone" and "Dunston Checks In", Akshay gets even with two bumbling comic villains played with anarchic gusto by Prakash Raj and Sonu Sood.
Rating:0.5/5 Review By:Rajeev Masand Site:CNN IBN
Anyone who's ever got a bad review tends to believe that movie critics don't want to enjoy a film. That they go into a movie thinking of new and different ways to shred it to bits. That's not true I can assure you, and I've been doing this job for over 15 years. Watching bad films is exhausting, and writing about them even more so. Movie critics - just like everyone else - want to have a good time at the movies.
Rating:1/5 Review By:Shubhra Gupta Site:Indian Express
The debutant directors have written such films as ‘Golmaal Returns’, ‘Ready’ and ‘Housefull 2’, so the dialogue, laced with Bollywood jokes and a running Ekta Kapoor gag, comes as no surprise. Neither does the discovery that the film lurches from one scene to another without bothering too much about plot. When all you want is for your actors to mouth a line, a story is pointless extravagance.
