Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Fantastic!
Excellent, smart action film.
Best movie ever!
CCTC is the first Indian martial arts movie that is very entertaining. Director Nikhil Advani and Akshay Kumar are the real stars that have made it a pleasant and interesting movie. It's really a great entertainer.Akshay Kumar who not only performs Martial arts, also emotes well throughout the entire movie. The film is full of thunderous performances. The film has excellent emotional chain between all characters. The stunts are the best ones I have ever seen. Other aspects like music,comedy,locations,cinematography and story with screenplay are also perfect. The Chinese actors are also good.On the whole,CCTC is a great entertainer all the way. Go,watch it and visit China with our desi stars!
I think Chandi Chowk to China is a great film and it is fun to watch. I don't understand why most people don't like it but for me, the film was great! Akshay Kumar is just funny as hell in this film, playing his character Sidhu is just lol. I think he acted very well.Deepika Padukone is lovely as ever! Playing a double role again (First being (Om Shanti Om) she was great. I liked her character Meow Meow, i think that it is a cool name and a very cool character. Her action scenes at the airport was fantastic. She looked great in all her costumes and her hair/ make-up was very beautiful! Her other character was also funny Ms. TSM.Dada was great same as the other star cast in the film.The songs in CC2C was funny. I love the title track Chandi Chowkt to China and Tere Naine (The sky song)...Overall this film is a great watch! My rating for Chandi Chowk to China: 7/10
AkshayBhai is currently playing roles where he's the hero but also a complete clown. He pulled this role off well in Namastay London but seems to be sinking lower and lower in each successive film. Can it get worse? Well his character is urinated upon in this film.Deepika is imaginatively assigned a double role in this and succeeds well. Both her characters appear distinguishably different although this is probably due to the costume and make-up rather than strength of her characters.The premise has potential, however the script appears to have been cobbled together. This film would probably disappoint it's audience because they'd be expecting popcorn and actually be fed peanut soup. Overall it's a farcical film made watchable by the dumb antics of AkshayBhai, eye candy of Deepika, and some fine kung foolery by Mithun.Pros - Different to the usual Bollywood fare! Soundtrack has 1 great song...Cons - Odd continuity glitch, plot-holes, swear words!?Overall - runs out of steam just before credits role
Akshay Kumar after the bad but hit SINGH IS KINNG returns with a worser CCTCThe movie is such a yawn feast that it puts you to sleep The story is a mix of SEETA AUR GEETA and SHOLAY and there is hardly any entertainment in the filmFlaws There are big holes in the script. Sample these- How and why do the two oppressed Chinese men suddenly land up in Chandni Chowk in Delhi? Also, how do they zero on Ranvir Shorey? No explanations offered. Deepika's track of visiting China is trite. Wasn't the twin-sister, an infant, thrown off the Great Wall of China? How did Gordon Liu suddenly decide to bring her up? Similarly, Deepika's father was also pushed from the Great Wall, but he survives. Akshay too is beaten black and blue and thrown off coincidentally, from the same place -- Great Wall, but is rescued mid-air by Deepika's father. Miracles never cease to occur, must add.Also the comedy isn't appealing this time around and the film moves at a slow pace The stunts too are poor Direction by NIKHIL ADVANI is terrible, makign SEI look a classic Music is okayAkshay Kumar is as usual, nothing great this time Deepika is decent this time, better then her previous works Ranveer Shorey continues wasting himself in such crap films
