As quoted by her \u201c<em>Filmein sirf teen cheezon se chalti hain- Entertainment, Entertainment, Entertainment!<\/em>\u201d- Today we finally have a film called Entertainment! A Tip\u2019s production, <em>Entertainment<\/em> is a slapstick-comedy featuring a dog that is way more intelligent than the humans!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Plot:<\/strong> A struggler in life, Akhil Lokhande soon discovers that he is actually the son of a billionaire. But as he steps in to claim his right, he finds out that his father has left all his empire in the name of a dog called Entertainment! And thus starts the tiff between him and the dog, who gives everyone a run for the money!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Performance:<\/strong> Akshay Kumar is in full form till today! Comedy is his forte and he does it with full zest. He is truly impressive on his part.<\/p>\n<p>Tamannaah Bhatia does a fairly decent job this time. A lot of improvement can be seen keeping in mind her performance in <em>Himmatwala<\/em> and <em>Humshakals<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Mithoon Chakraborty has now become the official father of all these days! In spite of a short role with no content, he is good watch in the film.<\/p>\n<p>Krushna Abhishek is amazing in his role and gives a good support to Akshay!<\/p>\n<p>Sonu Sood and Prakash Raj fail to elicit their charm in a comic role. Perhaps, they are best suited as villains!<\/p>\n<p>Johnny Lever has been sheerly wasted though the little bit he gets, has been done fabulously by him.<\/p>\n<p>And the real hero of the film, a beautiful Golden Retriever, is adorably cute and loveable.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Music:<\/strong> The music of the film is a big asset for the film. Composed by the sensational duo Sachin-Jigar, the album is mind-blowingly worthy! The songs like Johnny Johnny and Veere di Wedding have become huge hits in the crowd.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s Good:<\/strong> A light-mindless comedy with a sole intention of making you laugh! The songs are super-amazing and each track makes you step out of the seat. The lesson about how the animals have become more human than the humans themselves hits the right chord.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s Bad:<\/strong> Some of the gags come across as highly kiddish and stale. There is no substantial plot in the movie.<\/p>\n<p>More than anybody else, PETA will be the happiest to see the film. Despite its shortcomings, the film actually lives up to its name- its Entertainment, surely! Even though the film does not bring out any intellectual humor, but it does manage to make the audience laugh out loud! <em>Entertainment<\/em>, is pure entertainment!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Verdict:<\/strong> Leave your brains at home and have a thorough laugh watching <em>Entertainment<\/em> this weekend!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rating:<\/strong> ** and a half<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Related Information :<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.mapsofindia.com\/my-india\/movies\/new-upcoming-movies-releasing-this-week-on-friday\">Movies Releasing this Week on Friday<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Release Date: 8th August 2014 Starring: Akshay Kumar, Tamannaah Bhatia, Sonu Sood, Prakash Raj, Johnny Lever Directed by: Sajid-Farhad Music: Sachin-Jigar Duration: 2 hours 21 minutes The long discovered formula of Vidya Balan about making a successful film has today become officially true!
