The Shaukeens Review:
- Ratings:2/5 Review By: Manjusha Radhakrishnana Site:Gulfnews
Agreed, she looks amazing in a swimsuit, but it’s difficult to warm up to her clueless, cute act. How can a grown women like her not be aware that three old men are groping her repeatedly? The laugh-out-loud moments are few in this film and the majority of them come from Akshay Kumar’s role. As an alcoholic, bored superstar he excels. Watch this if you are a fan of Akshay Kumar and can turn a blind eye to some blatant objectification of women.

The good thing is that the film showcases exactly what it promises in the promo --- an adult comedy. There are some genuinely funny moments. So if you don’t mind three aged men with high libido and low underwear blatantly hitting on a girl who is oblivious to good touch bad touch (Lagta hain madam ne Satyamev Jayate nahi dekha!), then The Shaukeens might work for you. Watch it only if you are a die-hard Akshay Kumar fan.

The narrative, packed with inane situations, numerous quirks and wacky oddballs, is lent a breezy pace by editor Rameshwar S Bhagat. It’s only towards the nearing of the “happily ever after” that things get stretched and an unnecessary, flashy club song is inserted. It’s a flaw that could’ve been avoided, but one we are willing to overlook as a trade-off for the steady supply of giggles and laughter.
