The greatest movie ever made..!
In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.
Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.
Released in 2002 and one of the highest grossing Indian film of that year. APD is a good action- comedy but only for Akshay's fans.Some people said this movie was a straight copy of Bruce Willis's "The Whole Nine Yards". But that was partially true because the original movie had many vulgar scenes and this flick was a clean comedy.I have seen this film in 2005 on TV since then I've watched it many time.Akshay,Suniel and Paresh was awesome. Songs were the weakest part of this film.Johnny Lever and Aftab both were likable.Action scenes were copied but slick and cool.All in all APD is an entertainment package that comes with lots of thrills.My rating ***1/2 out of 5.
APD starts off as a 'Been there, Seen that' yawn of a movie. In true Bollywood style, it rehashes Action from 'The Matrix' and a plot more than loosely based on 'The Whole Nine Yards'. Akshay Kumar, who is slowly establishing himself as an actor par excellence with every movie he signs makes one wonder why he is doing the same thing again, especially when you see how lame the action looks in the context. But then, about half an hour into the movie, something happens that has one rivetted to their seat for the next two hours. Paresh Rawal enters. The more said about him, the better it gets. the bellyaching laughs start and don't stop, even if you try your best. And what's more amazing is that his singular joke in the movie never gets old. Such is the explosive talent of this fine actor. There is a myriad of characters to keep you laughing, one kookier than the rest.Akshay is good as the Serious, no nonsense don who can't help but work with the army of misfits surrounding him. Suneil Shetty, in the smallest role of the film manages to come across as very funny as the man who forgets simple words. Johnny Lever as the stammering sidekick with a short fuse is hilarious, especially in his one 2 one's with Rawal. Aftab Shivdasani carries the part of a henpecked Husband with conviction.Supriya is great as Paresh Rawal's menacing wife. Out of the three leading women, Aarti Chabria has the best role, but pity she is not as good an actress as is needed to carry it off.And finally, Paresh Rawal... funny to the hilt, his innocent, miserable husband who cannot remember names is simply fantastic.All in all, a film definitely worth watching. Highlight of the film - EVERY SCENE WITH PARESH RAWAL IN IT.
this rotten film has one of the funniest scenes i have ever seen in a hindi film. the silly hero (aftab) is telling some even sillier heroine about his love for her, and a gangster (johnny lever) thinks that aftab is coming out of the closet and declaring his love for him. makes the entire film, including the ludicrous special effects (NO, it is not cheesy enough to be good!) worth watching.
A movie that is truly a blemish on Bollywood. I saw it on the next day I saw "Gulaam" on TV. I kept wondering as to what prompted Vikram Bhatt to make a movie that made no sense at all. The opening sequence are straight rip-off from "Matrix" and "Crouching Tiger....". Once that is over, the picture takes turn for worse. The story line makes no sense, none of the actors seems to committed to the movie, comedy is crude and vulgar, music is torture to ears, and one can't help shutting of the VCR. I wonder what trash is imposed these days in name of entertainment.
