Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

Absolutely the worst movie.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

The kings of comedy are back and for the first time, I saw all of my favourite comic actors in the same film. It's an all-out entertainer. Even the film begins with a hilarious description by Akshay Kumar as Nitin Bankar about his life. Harbans Chadda(Paresh Rawal)has does a splendid job once again. Johnny Lever, Sunil Shetty, Rajpal Yadav and Shakti Kappor aren't lagging behind. In this movie, only one sort of serious moment is at the last when Ram(Shetty) says that they lost the money. This movie is a must watch. All scenes are so humorous. Director Priyadarshan, well, how does one describe his talent? Saying he did a splendid job will only cut short the praise he deserves. A big thanks to the cast and crew of this movie.

Lets start off with the actors. The Hera Pheri trio (Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty and Paresh Rawal)all performed well with great comic timing as usual. Sameera Reddy and Katrina Kaif were also good. They starred opposite Akshay and Suniel (bet you can guess who was opposite to who) and did a half-decent job of it.Others such as Rajpal Yadav,Manoj Joshi and Chunkey Pandey also did well. The music is also good. The tracks 'Baamulaiza' and 'Rishte Naate' are, in my opinion, the best two of the bunch. It is a film that, when you watch, you shouldn't bother about how good the story is (it is OK). Instead, you should be looking for some comedy. Believe me, this has more than some comedy in it. Verdict: Mindless entertainment. Watch it - 8.5/10

Film by film, the stories and the comedies of Priyadarshan are getting complicated but still looks similar. Especially, in the endings when all the actors in the movie end up being at one place and it becomes all harakiri.The level of comedy movies has gone drastically down this year. All the Best was well below par and so is this one, probably a little better than All The Best. I just can't seem to comprehend after seeing some of the comments made by the users that they laughed for 2 hours 45 minutes. If someone can laugh on Sunil Shetty's and Sameera Reddy's scenes, then they seem to be brothers with Navjot Singh Sidhu.The movie actually had a very good script and a good screen play but it lacked good comedy in most of the scenes. It was getting to predictable. After a long time, Johnny Lever has delivered to his potential. Akshay Kumar was good but not amazing and moreover he was kept out of the movie for almost an hour because of the script. Paresh Rawal had a good role but then again, monotonous.All in All, its a 5-6/10 movie...

Priyadarshan reunites the 'Herapheri' team in De Dana Dan, hoping to make an impact after his past few films failed to find significant successes. De Dana Dan's story is the regular tale of confusion that Priyan has churned out in the past as well. Unlucky Nitin (Akshay Kumar) and Ram (Suneil Shetty) are low on cash and survive on the largess's of their girlfriends Anjali (Katrina Kaif) and Manpreet (Sameera Reddy) who claim to be with them till the end of time, but chicken out when it comes to marrying the guys. To get money, the duo decides to kidnap the dog of Archana Puran Singh (Akshay's boss). Through a twist of fate, Archana thinks Akshay's been kidnapped. With the regular sub-plots, the story culminates in a deluge of water in a hotel with the entire cast trapped in it.The story is only funny in small parts, and does not leave an impact. One gets the feeling that if the multitude of sub-plots was lesser, it could probably have been funnier. As It stands, the movie is at least half an hour too long and the audience will suffer from boredom. Priyadarshan fails to lift the hackneyed script with his direction, resorting to his age old tactics to try and make the audience laugh. But those practices can only get you so far. This is a disappointing effort from the veteran. He seriously needs to bring some freshness into his comedies.Akshay Kumar as Nitin is one of the most sincere acts in this movie, but is hampered by two aspects: lack of screen time and stock expressions. Akshay keeps making the silly faces that worked earlier, but look stale now. Suneil Shetty tries hard and puts in a decent performance. Katrina Kaif and Sameera Reddy have nothing more to do than be eye candy. Paresh Rawal is not funny here. There is a lack of scope for the veteran in this movie. Due to the movie having a huge number of actors, no one gets enough time to leave an impact. Rajpal Yadav, Asrani and Mohan Joshi are all wasted. Pritam's score disappoints, with only the Usher-inspired 'Paisa' and the melodious 'U and I' leaving an impact. A minimalistic background score helps by not interrupting the flow of the movie. The locales of Singapore are pictured well and Singapore looks beautiful. The choreography and setting of 'Paisa' are pretty innovative.Final Verdict: I wish the editor had stepped in and cut out at least half an hour of this bloated film. Watching it will not tell you what a comedy is. Give it a miss.
