Review of 99 (2009) by Ajayesh S — 16 May 2009
Laugh-riot is an apt word. A hilarious flick in the vein of Hera Pheri (though one class below). Superb comedy about scamsters running a golden goose scam. Kunal is perfect in his role. Cyrus feels like a misfit in a Hindi movie.
Soha Ali...heck I don't know what she's doing. But the best characters are Boman Irani's and Amit Mistry. They are spot-on in their roles. Though this flick is unevenly paced (starting of extremely slow with deliberate pacing and then ending in a flourish), I loved the flick and it is truly damn funny.
Amit Mistry as Dubey takes the cake (check the Dimple scenes). HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. I only wish it was briskly paced from the start instead of mid-way. Then it would have been in the same league as Hera Pheri.
