Review- anthony kaun hai

Anthony Kaun hai?

Now here is Arshad Warsi, trying again to kick start his career, to get himself into mainstream cinema. There is the same illusion that he might succeed, as it was after really good roles in Munnabhai MBBS , Sehar, Wasia Bhi Hota Hai part2, but will he? only time will tell.
Arshad's exceptional acting ability dares to carry the movie alone , inspite of the presence of Sanjay Dutt, and he partially succeeds. The story drags on slowly, but there is one good thing, there actually is something in the movie that might be called a story. Something inherently missing from most of the recent movies. Comic scenes arise out of genuine situations, rather than someone playing the joker with a slapstick. No pants are dropped and no couples land of the bed, and still the movie grabs your interest.
The delectable Minisha lamba, is smiling all over the screen, she could have done with some acting lessons, but for a beginner, she's good.
The movie in all registers as better than the crowd, but not one of the best. Better editing could have worked wonders for the movie. But still watch it for clean humor, for the genius in Arshad and for the intimidatingly funny Sanjay Dutt.
PS. Wait a minute, i heard someone call it a thriller, well it's as much thrill as lying on the bed, trying to sleep.
