The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

The movie miserably failed to make me laugh after the first 10 minutes. There was nothing to see but three old tharkis trying to get into a girl's pants. It seemed like a side story of another movie that gets 15 mins of screen time but this one ran for 2 hours. Even the no-brainers bollywood is coming up with these days like "singham returns" or "kick" were more entertaining than this. At least their action made me laugh! Oh and Akshay Kumar's role is nothing more than a guest appearance so don't be fooled by the trailers. Its a waste of money and time. I would prefer watching and empty wall for 2 hours over this.I wish i could unsee this piece of turd but now its left a scar on my brain.

The movie was among the few I was waiting to watch mainly because of the three brilliant oldies. After a brief spell in the first half where it I was intrigued at what's gonna happen it all fell apart in the second half. The pace of the movie somehow fell drastically. Nothing unexpected happened and you will feel it was like that could have been the worst possible ending.Akshay was brilliant to begin with but as the movie progressed he showed signs of Chandni Chowk to China once again. The actress around which the whole movie revolves did not show any signs of acting and at times it was irritating to see her say everything in the same manner. Oh boy, how much she could do with some acting lessons.It is a one time watch hardly and that's only because of the sheer respect towards the senior citizens of Bollywood.

Shaukeens was not a big hit, yet it was praised, especially the acting of Ashok Kumar,Utpal Dutt and AK Hangal all 3 on heavenly board now, The film also had Mithun and Rati play young lovers. However The Shaukeens is nothing great in comparison, actually the director keeps the main plot same but changes things to suit today's times. The 3 old men head to mauritius for some action, they first plan bangkok but their families act weird on the name of Bangkok. The 3 meet Lisa Haydon in Mauritius who is upset because of her friends giving more likes to her ex on fb(such jokes) Akshay Kumar enters at the interval and the seocnd half focuses on him trying to please a Bengali Director to get a national award, he also makes fun of himself which is getting boring now, after Srk,Salman doing the same. The film also gets lengthy and stretchedDirection is okay but expected a lot from Abhishek Kapoor who gave us TERE BIN LADEN Music is okayAmongst actors, all 3 being talented yet the chemistry and fun of the original is missing in them. Annu Kapoor is decent in his role, Piyush Mishra rarely seen in such films does well in his role, Anupam Kher being sober does a decent job Lisa Haydon is a non actress, Akshay Kumar plays himself and is okay Manoj Joshi,Cyrus Broacha are good

The Shaukeens is a story of three oldies - KD, Lali and Pinki. These lusty old men plan a trip to Mauritius after it becomes difficult, rather life-threatening for them to get some action in Delhi.In Mauritius the trio stay with a young fashion designer Ahana (Lisa Haydon). Ahana, a huge Akshay Kumar fan, is nursing a broken heart.Akshay Kumar (playing himself), is an alcoholic superstar desperately wanting to win the National Award. He is stuck between a Bengali director who gives him tips on method-acting and a secretary, hell bent on getting his superstar boss focus on Rs.200- cr club.When Akshay Kumar comes to Mauritius for a shoot, Ahana falls in love with him. The three oldies, needless to say, are already in love (read lust) with Ahana. In the end, who gets whom and what, is all that The Shaukeens is about.The Shaukeens is a remake, rather recreation of Basu Chatterjee's 1982 Shaukeen starring Ashok Kumar, Utapal Dutt, AK Hangal, Rati Agnihotri and Mithun Chakraborty. Directed by Abhishek Sharma, The Shukeens boasts of pace and crispy dialogs. Tigmanshu Dhulia's tight screenplay and flawless act by the three veterans make the film immensely watchable.
