Just imagine…
Having Paneer-tikka pizza or Veg. handi pasta; basically a
tangy masaledar Indian twist to An Italian Job!
The film begins with Charlie (Abhishekh Bacchan) trying to gather
his Angels or rather ‘Devils’, with the help of Victor Dada (Vinod Khanna), to loot a locomotive laden with 10000 crores worth of gold, travelling from Russia to Romania. His
Team consists of the Best Illusionist (Bobby Deol), world class Prosthetics
expert (Omi Vaidya), Desi Bomb expert (Sikender Kher), a seductress who is an automobile expert (Bipasha Basu) & the
best hacker on the planet (Niel Nitin Mukesh); all conveniently from the same
country- something like hum paanchi ek
daal ke!
With a blotched up yet thrilling & fast paced plan the
team does succeed in their mission. But not all of the team members are loyal; someone
intends to kill the rest of the gang & gobble up everyone’s share! Who is
the mole? Will he be able to kill all the team members? Is revenge on cards for
him? Will he be able to escape the wrath of the survivors?
As far as the plot is concerned, there are several loose
ends but thankfully the fast paced action doesn’t really leave much time for
the audience to think. The train robbery shot is worth a watch and Omi Vaidya
& Johnny Liver’s acting & comic timing is commendable! Bobby &
Abhishekh have the same expression plastered on their faces throughout the
movie as on the poster of the film- so no need to waste time and money if you
want to see their acting skills! Niel wastes the scope of the character he plays, thanks to his limited acting skills! Bipasha is good enough & Sonam is, simply
put- Irritating! Spoiler alert- Sonam does an ‘item’ song- well, she should learn an
item or two from Bips!
The first half of the film is thrilling, fast paced &
better scripted while the second half falls prey to mediocrity &
innumerable loopholes. Overall not very bad- thanks to Omi &
Johnny! Watch it for them & you might just enjoy the show!
