Humshakals - one time watch no-brainer entertainment

A word of caution - you will enjoy this only if you
  1. keep your brain outside the cinema hall
  2. don't use logic to question why something is happening
  3. like slapstick comedy
  4. don't consider jokes on animals and medical patients as unethical

This movie has everything to make you laugh - potion which turn humans into barking dogs, idiots play with medical equipment like video games (and a man coming out of coma as a result), cocaine parathas (in which atta is substituted by cocaine), vodka parathas (made with vodka in place of  water), Ram Kapoor dancing in a skirt and trying to enchant her (his) lookalik.

Not to forget - a man suffering from obsessive compulsive disorder stage 3 - who would go mad whenever someone sneezes in front of him. And a warden at the mental hospital, who loves to torment his patients.

Things go overboard in the second half - and I feel it gets stretched a bit too much with the function and all and its a forgetful comedy of errors at the end(which is not at all funny)

Worth a watch if you like no-brainer slapstick comedies like Housefull 2, Kya Supercool Hai Hum and Grand Masti. Nothing adult to the nature of comedy in the movie.
