Heist thriller in Hindi cinema? What it would be and how it would be? These questions will be prompted in our minds, when we're about to watch happy new year. Generally, Hindi cinema is not popular for its heist thriller films, however, the trend had started to take off from don 2, another srk film which was released in 2011 (nearly Christmas). Even i was stunned by the choreography of that heist in don 2. After the release of don 2, people have waiting for another heist treat and luckily they got it from the film, happy new year. Even though don 2 excelled in its brilliant heist execution, it's now exceeded by happy new year for its splendid and jaw dropping presentation of heist. Usually in heist movies expecting funny moments, romantic scenes, friendship celebrations, marvelous songs are very rare, or to be more precise those elements are labeled as impossible at all. In happy new year, as an audience we can expect every element and thus can enjoy a good masala film altogether. Honestly, happy new year excels at everything, even in some small scenes. OK lets' have a brief look under this film. Happy new year explains the story of how Charlie and his team try to loot priceless diamond pieces from a highly secured vault, which is only to take revenge from the bad guy. Story sounds too different and too impressive, right? That's the initial notable point in this film. Then songs; wow what a songs and music; hats off to he musical team as well as dance choreography team. I don't want to spoil the film by revealing everything of the characters and their sublime performances, so go and have a real original cinematic experience by watching it in cinemas. People, now a days, tend to watch two or two and half hour films. Perhaps they might be thinking that would be perfect and wouldn't let them boring. But happy new year may not stand up for the expectations of these kind of people. though it takes approximately three hour time length, it has all the ingredients to spice up the seat edginess of audience for that time period, and i assure that no one will get bored throughout the entire film. Guys Happy new year is like a tasteful recipe, which has mixed up with all necessary element needed to fulfill the satisfaction of audience at any cost. Go for it and have a ball. In conclusion i would like to say that, don't miss this jaw dropping and stunning film for any reason. Have fun........ My rating - 9/10

Farah Khan made a flawless movie. Every single bit of this entertainer is perfect. It's an entertainer. Not a deep movie. And it entertains extremely well. 1st SRK - Farah directs him wonderfully. There are no cringe worthy moments in this film. She gives us the gratuitous shots of SRK early on and 1 ups herself from the Darr de Disco sequence in Om Shanti Om. And once again it was hysterically funny, provided for character development and was superb eye candy all at the same time. This was a wonderful role for SRK. Abhishek - Farah uses his talents perfectly. And I mean perfectly! Wow! Double role! The guy is a chameleon and completely inhabits every role he plays. Put him in a new costume and he is that new person. He is a superb actor and was wonderful and watching him play off SRK was delightful. Deepika - This is one of the best performances I've seen from her. She is a fabulous actress, but this role required a surprising emotional depth from her and Farah was able to get that and capture that wonderfully. Boman Irani - I love the role she wrote for him. He played it perfectly and, again Farah nailed it both in terms of direction, actor choice and - well everything. Sonu Sood - His job is action star eye candy. He gets type cast a lot. Still - he was wonderful in it. At some point I would like to see him given a meatier role as he is capable of so much more than just being eye candy. But again, hats off to Farah for exploiting the eye candy thing within the movie itself. Jackie Shroff - he's perfect in his role. I love watching him act. He's great. Vivaan Shah - youngest of our crew - I was not familiar with him before. He was good and delivered the performance he was supposed to (he's more of a supporting role and given the high octane actors who was playing with in ensemble, he got a bit lost - but I don't think that's Farah's fault. He had plenty of scenes where he was the scene and he played them extremely well. Choreography. I love Farah's choreography. I love that she got Prabhudeva to do a cameo & the entire gotta dance montage was beautiful! The final dance sequence was amazing and left me wishing I had been rich enough to fly to one of the cities to see these people perform it live on stage during the slam tour. Realized I am going to go to my grave regretting that I didn't. Action sequences - Sonu Sood's early battle is fabulous. I'm curious to know why steam was coming out of only one ear. But this scene took every Hindi battle sequence ever made where our hero is surrounded, and put it up a notch. It was funny, it was cool, it was sexy - I love Farah! How she got the shirt off Sonu was really really funny. I like that she is able to deliver everything we want in a movie with grace, humor and in a way that forwards character development - for the entire ensemble! I can't believe she did used Kung Fu Fighting at one point (the song) but I loved the way she borrowed from the ending of Don (with SRK) for this sequence - especially since she had Boman in an onlooker role for the sequence. It was funny and scary and beautifully shot and the Jackie Chan sequence with the table that the borrowed was again, beautifully done. They say the best artists know who to steal from. Farah does. And with movies, it's not what you steal, it's how you steal it and make it your own. Farah is a MASTER! She is even at the point where she can steal from herself (with the ballroom sequence from Om Shanti Om - which is nothing like that except that she steals the music and the rotation - and has Deepika and SRK in the center of everything). This was a flawless movie. Everything about it was perfect. It was hysterically funny, well made, a fabulous ensemble and I left the movie positively giddy. I haven't felt this way coming out of a movie since I saw Streets of Fire when I was a teen. Well done Farah! Thank you for making this movie.

I have experienced pain in several forms. I have seen amateur attempts at movie making . I have watched fine art films like Gunda. I appreciate tongue in cheek humor. But this movie is just a bad movie. Period. It is not a movie that one would describe as 'so bad that it is good'. No this is terrible. This is a terrible movie. I did not find it to be humorous - At ALL. I honestly do not know why this movie was made. Notable issues include- The attempt to poke humor at Saroj Khan during one of the dance sequences is terrible. God Save Bollywood! Once again Farah khan have failed to entertain, Even Tees Maar Khan was better than this. Basically, the philosophy of the film is vague and in line of the escapist Bollywood cinema. And, we are not even talking about logic yet. A brainless comedy which fails to entertain. Don't go if you value your money and time, but once again i am giving advice to people who loves movies like kick, chennai express, jab tak hai jaan etc and many other craps released throughout the year.Happy New Year is a muddled mess which has its own warm moments but as a package fails to work. Three hours of Shah Rukh flaunting his abs and swagger gets too much to take minus a strong storyline. Farah Khan has redeemed Tees Maar Khan but Happy New Year is her most mediocre work. I am going with 0.5/10. It's a magnum opus which is pretty much hollow from within and remains an all frills, no thrills show.
