      Rudhra This movie is not for everyone but absolutely fun and motivational .The change of character sidhu went through is just awesome .Nostalgia hits hard Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/14/22 Full Review Audience Member Not sure why either of the leads chose to do this film. It's dumb and doesn't have much of a story either. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member Nice Comedy film...one of my favouriteð~? Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Ahmed M The plot is not good, feels like many movies have had a plot like this, and the few comedy scenes are okay. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/28/16 Full Review Audience Member 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! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member WTF did I just watch? Very bad film!

      Shubhra Gupta The Indian Express Right in the beginning, a minor character asks Sidhu: “Are you stupid?” He nods. That’s prescience. Jan 27, 2018 Full Review Anil Sinanan Time Out Warner Bros second foray into Bollywood is a brainless masala potboiler. Rated: 2/5 Oct 21, 2017 Full Review Ben Kenigsberg Time Out Rated: 2/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Mike Scott Times-Picayune Insufferable. Burdened with insipid plotting and lame comedy. Rated: 1/4 Sep 4, 2009 Full Review David Cornelius DVDTalk.com Tries to juggle Bollywood musical with martial arts action and slapstick comedy and fails at all three. Rated: 1.5/5 May 18, 2009 Full Review Mike McGranaghan Aisle Seat This is a fun movie, as well as an interesting peek into what entertains audiences in a different culture.
