My Thoughts:
I found this one to be fun. Is entertaining enough to keep my attention with ease... but like most Rom-Coms it is very predictable. Definitely worth the time put in to watch it.

Plot:
Bunty and Tanya - two people very much in love. But there's a problem. Bunty will do anything for love - except get married.
It's not hard to understand his phobia of marriage if one were to look at his parents. Kishen (Akshay Kumar) and Mala (Aishwarya Rai Bachchan) - two bickering senior citizens who are so incompatible that they are like a match made in hell even on their 35th wedding anniversary! While the couple runs a restaurant where they serve their volatile arguments as complimentary with the food. Bunty has never really understood why his parents got married and what stops them from getting divorced. Desperate to save his parent's marriage and his own love life. Bunty embarks on the most challenging journey of his life - by stealing his prospective grandfather-in-law's time machine right before his eyes! To rewrite Kishen and Mala's destiny and alter their disastrous arranged marriage into a romantic affair of the hearts.
Action Replay is a comedy rollercoaster that takes you back on a time machine to the good old 70s where a son plays Cupid to his own parents - and redefines generation gap!

My Thoughts:
The basic story reminds of Back to the Future. A guy is travelling back in time to get their parents to fall in love with each other instead of having a loveless arranged marriage with each other.The movie is rather silly and not very convincing. But I had fun overall. Especially towards the end when his father started to grow some backbone I enjoyed it. It's not telling of the kind of humor the movie has otherwise, but it must have the first fart joke I remember seeing in a Bollywood movie. I had to laugh because it was so unexpected.

Social network Friendface on the internet has everyone going crazy. Roy reconnects unwillingly with an old girlfriend of his, whom Jen suggests he should tell in person why they broke up. Jen on the other hand meets old school friends and is invited to the reunion. Intending to show off she takes Moss to pretend ot be her husband. All this plays out with an array of good jokes and on the side mocks social networks and the problems they create.
