The film plods at the start, with long intros to each of the characters and big doses of slapstick action complete with the cake routine.

Rated: 2/4

It is frantic, noisy, gaudy and, largely, joyless.

How long can you keep the whole tribute thing going and still make it feel fresh? How much send up is too much?

Happy New Year is a brightly colored, obnoxiously loud, brutishly simplistic, yet artfully crafted pile of filmi, overly dramatic conventions and references.

As the second half wears on, the proceedings become monotonous.

Happy New Year is not the best Bollywood of all time. Frankly, it’s very unserious and full of simple slapstick comedy. However, that’s what makes it great. If you sit down with the right group of people, this movie will have you laughing the entire time. It also has great rewatchability. Don’t take the movie very seriously and just have fun. There are tons of one-liners that are still iconic within my friend group.

Happy new year is a film which didn't had any reason to go wrong if you look at its cast, budget and crew. But the writing is so bad that the performances feel lazy and the film which is designed to be flashy comes off as bland. The only saving grace is its music.

If you write one word for every time this movie shows the finger to logic and sanity, your hand will fall off before the opening credits.

This took me totally by surprise. I expected just goofiness. I was goofy, but it was brilliant comedy. The characters were great and the plot had great twists. I was actually delighted it was three hours long!
