*Grade
C-
The first half of the movie is waste and boring, not to mention there are a lot of unnecessary put downs and insults to American and Englanders, as if common sense does not exists.
Even though the cast is superb, but because of no originality and flaw dialogues in this real global economy, there should be some respect for all kinds of people.
The music is sore to hears, too harsh. Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan do their role as they should have, as they did terrific.
Rated PG 13
