Kick is the pursuit of happiness for Devi Lal Singh(Salman Khan).

As Devi breaks off from Saina (aka Dr Psycho

played By Jacqueline Fernandez) in search of excitement and transforms into Robhinhood(Not pandey this time) to
save Child foundation ,Himanshu Tyagi gets engaged with Saina and focusses his naina(eye) on on catching devi
without much success. Dhoom action through salmans magical broom.

Stick to kick if u are a Salman Khan freak and enjoy his action tricks.

What this lovely word means is unbearable, though it cant come remotely close to the
tedium that the original describes. Salmans leading lady says it to him. About him. Yes,
gasp, addressing the one and the only Sallu Bhai, who appears in his latest In and As
avatar in Kick.
We duly crack a smile. Look, look, Bhai is sending himself up. Hes letting his heroine crack
a good one at his expense. Because he knows that he is anything but. And that hes just
waiting for her to finish the scene and leave, to get into his `Dabangg mode, for the hall will
burst into hoots and claps and whistles.
Thats what a viewing of Kick comes down to. I found it more or less jhelable when
Salman is not taking himself seriously, blowing a cherry at us. When the film starts getting
him close to his noble Being Human image, it becomes a yawn. Salman kickin it is fine, but
tearin up? Nahiiiiiin.
The plot, as befits a Salman Khan spectacle, is completely and delightfully cuckoo. Devi Lal
Singh (Salman Khan) is a guy who wanders about searching for kicks. His father (Mithun
Chakraborty) eggs him on in his pursuit. Devi runs into the sexy Shaina (Jacqueline
Fernandez), but before anything can happen , hes off and away. Its time for Devis alterego, Devil, to show up, and be chased by a cop ( Hooda), and a crook (Nawazuddin
Siddiqui) here and there and everywhere.
Never mind these niceties. We know that a Salman film is created solely to display his
popular quirks and his one-liners and his andaaz, all of which are designed to send his
fans into a swoon. Simple. When the story dares to fling such complex phrases as
retrograde amnesia and conservative management at us, we fling them right back as we
wait for Salman to slam it.
What makes Kick interesting, apart from some unfettered Salman moments, is Siddiqui in
full flow. His villainy is very Bollywood, with a trademark evil laugh, but self-aware and vivid
at the same time : there are scenes he steals from everyone, including, sacrilege, from the
Khan, even though the latter gets to throw away one of the most famous lines in movie
history, with a wink : you talking to me?
Everything else is as it should be. Fernandez is made to play a psychiatrist just so Bhai can
call her Psycho. Ha ha. We know she is a doctor because she wears thick framedspectacles, which she chucks to a side to execute a perfect eye-popping shimmy shake.

Hooda is watchable, as he almost always is, but he needed better scenes. The rest of the
cast just does its jobof bringing up the rear.
Because the front end is dominated by Salman the Khan. Devi or Devil, same difference.

There are two devils in Kick. Both have sinister smiles. One of them, as the trailer tells us, is a
thief named Devil (Salman Khan). The other one is in disguise. His name is Shiv (Nawazuddin
Sidddiqui), a loony, over-the-top villain whose presence adds a much-needed kick to the film's
proceedings. Siddiqui with his gaunt physique is the man least likely to take on Khan in a brawl
and emerge victorious. So it's a relief to know that here he is the baddie with a brawn and a
colourful personality who annoys the hero with his teasing talk and creepy laugh. If only Kick
like Siddiqui didn't take itself too seriously, then we would get a few kicks out of the 146minute long running time. Unfortunately, that's not the case.
Kick may as well be a sequel to Salman Khan's attempt to clean up his image which began
earlier this year with Jai Ho. Herein, he is Devi Lal Singh, a jobless forty-something genius who
can't stick to a job simply because it's too boring to hold on to one. Instead he prefers to get a
kick out of doing things such as make a smoke bomb and a hologram device, help a couple
elope, beat up eve teasers and woo Dr Shaina (Jacqueline Fernandez), who is a more gifted hip
hop dancer than a psychiatrist. When all of these tasks are accomplished, he turns into a oneman Save the Sick Children Foundation. Since Devi Lal doesn't work and therefore has no
money to pay for their treatment, he is driven to grow a French beard and turn into an eyemask wearing thief who robs from the super-rich only on festivals. How divine!
Enter cop Himanshu (Randeep Hooda, with little to do), who after cracking a code chases the
robber to Poland, where our dearest doc Shaina after her break-up with Devi also happens to
be. How convenient. As the uninspiring chor-police game continues at a slow pace, the entry of
the twisted Shiv, about whom little background is given, gives a new lease of life to the film. But
it's too late and too little.
Four people are credited with the film's screenplay including producer and debutant director
Sajid Nadiadwala and popular author Chetan Bhagat. But they come up with little ingenious or
entertaining. Instead we get references to Inspector Pandey of Dabangg, moral science lectures
and half-baked caricatures including Sanjay Mishra as an inspector. The attempts to draw
laughs are forced and in vain. In fact there are some random, uncharacteristically funny
moments in Kick: Shaina wonders why is she called to an underground club (it's a good question
with an obvious answer: to dance Ahmed Khan's Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez-inspired
choreography) and when London's double-decker bus is driven on the streets of Poland. We are
also not sure what to make of Khan dancing comically to "Saat Samundar Paar", which was the
hit track of Divya Bharti, who incidentally was Nadiadwala's first wife.

There are resonances of Dhoom 3 with action sequences unfolding in a foreign setting and one
even culminating with a face-off between the cop and thief on a bridge. Kick drags on pulling
the famous emotional manipulation-card by showing a child suffering and our hero shedding
copious tears. You know it's all going wrong when one ends up rooting for the villain, in this
case Shiv, who at one point tired of the endless saga orders his bodyguards to kick the hell out
of Devi Lal. But it's obviously wishful thinking on Shiv's part for villains are always losers. That
the film concludes with signs of a sequel is not reassuring.

If you are a die-hard Salman Khan fan, this film is a visual treat for you. Others will love to kick
themselves for having wasted three hours at the cinema trying to figure out what the makers of the
film themselves haven't. Seemingly a messy, hotch-potch of Krrish 2, Dhoom 3, Dabangg 2, et al,
Kick, to say the least, is one of the most silliest films of the decade!
Directed and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, under the 'Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment'
banner, the film features Salman Khan in the lead role and the rest of the cast, including Jacqueline
Fernandez who plays a psychiatrist (God knows why) and Randeep Hooda (her fiance) are
discarded like dirt with roles that mean nothing at all. The only bright spot was Nawazuddin Siddiqui
who plays a deplorable villain, and whose uncouth demeanour added some pep to the film.
KICK
Produced and directed by: Sajid Nadiadwala
Music: Himesh Reshammiya, Meet Bros, Yo Yo Honey Singh
Starring: Salman Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Randeep Hooda, Nawazuddin Siddiqui
Rating: 1/5 Stars

Remake of a Telugu film of the same name, Kick is said to have grossed the highest collections on
its opening day and secured the highest first week collections of all time, beating the likes of Dhoom
3 and Chennai Express. But then, that's only because of its Eid release and Salman's huge screen
presence which is the only factor that draws audiences.
The story (there wasn't really one) unfurls as Shaina (Jacqueline), a psychiatrist in Poland, meets
her fiance Himanshu (Randeep Hooda) in a train and they get talking about her ex-boyfriend, Devi

Lal Singh (Salman) who is supposedly a dare devil because he is obsessed with seeking a kick out
of everything in life.
Having bumped into him while helping a friend elope with her lover, Shaina eventually falls in love
with his appetite for thrill and decides to get married to him. However, the 'kick' came in between and
they had to break up.
In the meanwhile, Himanshu, a police inspector, is out to catch a notorious thief in Poland called
'Devil', who has been targeting the rich and famous with the help of Shiv Gazra (Nawazuddin
Siddiqui), a corrupt businessman. And, the robber is none other than Devi (like we didn't know that)
who sports a third-rate Krrish mask, does daredevil stunts in the city, destroying property and
unleashing panic, with his two-penny Sallu-style dialogues thrown in between only for effect. Shaina
spots Devi in Poland where he has supposedly come for psychiatric treatment (the director himself
seems to need more of that). And, hey, that was only a bluff (aren't you shocked with this twist!) The
rest is... (no, I'm not going to reveal the blot-of-a-plot). And, by the way, there is a Mithun
Chakrabarty and an Archana Puran Singh thrown in for humour, which worked as good as curry
leaves in a plumcake.
The music is peppy but pathetic (you won't remember any song once you leave) and the dance
sequences with the 'thief' at centre stage are uncalled for, only to exhibit Salman's signature
movements. However, it was good to see some of the Polish background dancers enjoying doing a
Bollywood number for a change.
The movie seems to end on a note that makes room for a sequel (Salman turns into a police officer,
seconds before the lights come on), and going by current-day Bollywood trends, the audience will
lap that up, as well, and make the cash registers ring again.
So, if you could not see Kick during the Eid holidays, you did not really miss anything. And, if you still
have the urge, better drop your four bucks in the charity box at any supermarket.
