BR: I happened to catch Joker on tv the other day and I don’t quite agree with you here – I found the movie pretty terrible from the word go (I mean yeah, there was lot of scope for whimsy and inspired lunacy but it never came out that way for me) but I’d actually say the exact same thing you say here about another Akshay Kumar starrer, “Entertainment” directed by Sajid-Farhad.
The first 20 minutes or so of Entertainment are exactly “…it is so inspired and one-of-a-kind that I began to hope that we were in for that rarest of treats – a completely visionary mainstream comedy.”
A hilarious scene involving black-and-white-to-color wipes to transition between flashback and present-time, a truly inspired turn by Krushna Abhishek who slips in movie stars’s names in usual conversations…
But then it just slips into the usual Anees Bazmee-Sajid Khan variety of comedy.
Seen it by any chance?
