Do you enjoy crappy comedy? If you do than this movie is for you. The team of Heyy Babyy is back this year to give some summer entertainment. The movie has some of top actors who are superb at comic timing and therefore there were a lot of expectations from Housefull, but honestly no matter what the box office collection says, the movie has nothing but senseless and crappy comedy.
The movie revolves around Aarush(Akshay Kumar) who is so unlucky that casino owners keep him to spread some bad luck in the casino so that people betting around start losing on their counters. Soon Aarush leaves the job and moves to London to meet his best friend Bob(Ritesh Deshmukh) and his wife Heetal(Lara Dutta), but the couple is soon tired of Aarush’s bad luck. Bob and Heetal than try to fix up Aarush with their boss’s daughter Devika(Jiah Khan) and it seemed like a perfect match. They get married and on the honeymoon Aarush is surprise to know that Devika already has a boyfriend and that she married him for financial reasons. Tired of his ill-fate catching him up all the time, Aarush decides to suicide but Sandy(Deepika Padukone) saves him and the story moves on further with lots of funny situations happening.
Technically the movie is decent, the cinematography is good. The music of the film by Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy is certainly not up to the mark and none of the songs are chartbusters. Talking about the performances in the movie, I think Akshay should now quit doing more comedy roles because he gives the same old comic expression. Ritesh and Lara are brilliant in their roles and so is Boman Irani. Deepika Padukone is good in her part but Jiah is side lined throughout the movie. Arjun Rampal is average but Chunkey Pandey steals the show with his comic timing. Right before the movie begins, Sajid Khan pays tribute to some of the legendary directors who have made great entertaining movies but he is miles away from making an entertainment movie. The situations in the movie are absolutely crap, senseless and you might want to cry on wasting you money. Though, there are some genuinely comic scenes but the rest of the movie is pathetic.
