Joker(2012) review - Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha

It wasn't long ago that Akshay Kumar was acting in some amazing movies like Tasveer 8 X 10, Tashan and Tees Maar Khan.
He has also done some timeless classics like Jaani Dushman and Chandani Chowk to China.

Just when Akshay was enjoying his flop saga, he was cursed with 2 blockbuster hits Housefull 2 and Rowdy Rathore.
Not only was his performance applauded, the movies were actually worth watching. This must have left Akshay heartbroken. But fortunately, with Joker's release Akshay can relax again. It is an addition to his glorious flop league.


Joker is the story of a village, which is run by patients who escaped from a mental asylum. Akshay Kumar works for NASA (he is a native of the village) and conveniently plagiarizes Rakesh Roshan's idea from Koi Mil Gaya to invent a machine that can contact aliens. He is summoned by the villagers to solve their problems and he comes up with an idea to fake an alien visit so that the village gets attention from the country.


While script writers were assigned the important task of eating peanuts, the dialogue writers outsourced their jobs to 5th graders. The 5th graders in turn outsourced Shreyas Talpade's dialogues to kindergartners. Keeping in mind the director's love for retro style, the graphics towards the end were borrowed from the 60's. 


Joker is supposed to be a movie for kids but my question is, which kid requested Chitrangada Sen's hot item number? 

The media has reported Akshay Kumar's absence from the promotions. Now unless he is busy promoting the movie in outer space there is only one logical answer to this question – aliens who were shown Joker, have abducted him and are probably making him watch Department repeatedly. Don’t feel sorry he tortured them first.

Meanwhile the public has grown sick of the movie's aliens going around and promoting Joker everywhere. They were in the movie for a total of 5 minutes and they have been promoting the movie for over 5 weeks now.

My final verdict is that if I were a little child, I would have enjoyed the movie a lot. But since dancing aliens do not make sense to me, I was definitely not the right audience for this movie.

So if you are a 5-year-old kid reading my blog, my word is that you should go and watch the movie right now and if you are an adult then just shut the fuck up and get back to Facebook.
