Verdict: Good Timepass Comedy
"K" Rating: 3/5
Watch: Theater/DVD
Action Replayy brings back the comedy of yesteryears - litreally. Its a simple, funny, clean comedy flick. Action Replayy tells the tale of a young man Bunty who goes back in time to make his parents fall in love before they tie the knot, in an era where love-marriages are taboo aka the 70s. Based on a Gujrati play by the same name, this film's storyline is not its strong point.However Vipul Shah turns this Sci-fi-rom-com into a success with the its treatment,comic timing, and starcast.
Akshay kumar aces in comedy as Kitchen Kumar and sends the audience in splits of laughter with his mere appearance on screen. Aishwarya looks her stunning self in the retro avatar. Debutant Aditya Roy Kapoor as Bunty works well. Roles of Kirron Kher and Om Puri seemed to be half baked. Neha Dhupia definately adds the oomph factor.Last but not the least, Rajpal Yadav is great as Bikhu!
Pritam's music is good, espicially "Zor Ka Jhatka", which has already become synonymous with the movie! O Bekhabar is another good number.
Action Replayy is a mindless entertainer, so don't try and find logic in it -"Awaaz Neeche"!. Just sit back and laugh with Action Replayy this festive season.
