De Dana Dan
Critic reviews and ratings
-
...targeted at the masses and it delivers laughter in abundance. Leave your brains behind to enjoy this madcap entertainer!
-
It would be harsh to run it down by drawing unnecessary comparisons with classic comedies. De Dana Dan has tremendous entertainment value. Given the style of most Bollywood comedies - De Dana Dan is the funniest film of the season.
-
...a quickie flick which is hastily written, rapidly filmed, has swift storytelling and speeding characters giving you no time to breathe, gasp, feel, absorb react or relate.
-
...a film that begins soundly and then slips into cuckoo land, only because the primary characters and their story is side-tracked for a compendium of tertiary tales.
-
Don't ask for any logic or reasoning. The situations are purely coincidental guaranteed to give you a laugh.
-
If you're in the mood for a ton of laughs, this slapstick riot is for you. That is, of course, you can keep up.
-
And I finally understood why the credits in many Priyadarshan films say filmed by Priyadarshan instead of directed by Priyadarshan. Because there is little sense that someone is actually directing this circus.
-
...a comedy in search of a hocus focus.
-
...senseless, mad-cap, over-the-top, cacophonic comedy.
-
An hour into ‘De Dana Dan’, you are at the exact same point you were the last time Priydarshan got a bunch of people to chase their tails in an enclosed space: struggling to keep your eyes open.
-
The multitude of characters in the second half and the unusually long climax only adds to the woes of viewers.
-
One of Priyadarshan's weakest film in recent memory.
-
...a loud, overlong collection of slapstick subplots...
-
...is a new low for comedy as a whole.
-
...carry ear plugs with you, or a Saridon. Or both. A migraine is guaranteed.
-
...extra loud and grating experience, with everyone trying a bit too hard at that same mish mash of sex, money marriage comedy garnished with boringly familiar ingredients.
-
Little will make sense, or is meant to. There is simply no recess from this excess.
-
...Priyadarshan touches a new low.
-
No fun in this funny movie.
-
De Dana Dan is not a film. It's a series of skits strung together to convey a sense of baggy fun and frivolous entertainment.
-
Somewhere in the middle of the mindless antics of this loud and slap-happy ensemble cast, Priyadarshan hammers the final nail in the coffin of all stories that could be called comedy.
