Tees Maar Khan movie review

Tees Maar Khan: is worth a few senseless laughs.

Undoubtedly, the one of the most anticipated film of 2010, ‘Tees Maar Khan’ is director Farah Khan’s third venture. Her last two films were colossal hits, all thanks to the King Khan. This time, she has made a film with Akshay Kumar, an actor who has struggled for success (both critical and commercial) for the past 2 years. So what does Tees Maar Khan offer you? The answer is absurd humor but it manages to tickle your funny bone too.

Tabrez Mirza Khan aka Tees Maar Khan is a ‘con artist’ as he likes to call himself, a thief who gives the police a run for their money every time he is caught. He gets the job of robbing a train full of antics for a twin gangsters…This is the biggest challenge, Tabrez has ever faced so he makes it a point to make a full proof plan and then go for the kill. TMK does not have a story as such, it just has insane humor.

I felt that Akshay Kumar is regaining form, but still I sincerely request him to leave comedy for some time. Raghu Ram and Rajiv Lakshman the twin gangsters are a waste to an otherwise badly written script, they do nothing but get on your nerves and you surely want to slap them one at a time. Katrina has acted like retard, I wish she was only in the song sequences, showing off her newly made curves. Akshaye Khanna comes as a surprise, delivering a splendid show. Nothing significant from the rest of the cast.

As far as TMK is concerned as a whole, it is irrational, brainless, yet somehow it makes you laugh at least for some time. The film can be best described as shameless fun. Indian audiences love such comedies and It is sure to set the cash registers ringing since it has the holiday season to its advantage. Keep your brains at home, plus go in with low expectations, you might be in for a decent treat.

Rating: 2.5/5
