Main Tera Hero (MTH) is a glittering vehicle for star son Varun Dhawan to drive, which he does with practiced panache. However, even more than Junior, MTH has his dad David Dhawan stamped all over it. The plot is familiar Dhawan territory - one boy, two babes, a mansion and many clowns - but with new landmarks, from plunging bikinis to lip-glossed kisses, thrown in. Those seeking movies with meaning, note - Main Tera Hero is a pav bhaji picture, quick, spicy, hot. It has the depth of a comic strip but it also has its neon-shaded fun. For those who want a light laugh, here's your boy. On the whole, MAIN TERA HERO is a wild, wacky, madcap entertainer that has the unmistakable stamp of the master of entertainers -- David Dhawan. An over the top plot, humor quotient and performances are three aces the film stands on. The film should work well with admirers of typical Bollywood masalathons, also because Varun Dhawan pulls off the act with flamboyance and bowls you over with an uproarious act in this zany entertainer. Go, have fun and laugh out loud!

To be honest ..I for on really enjoyed the movie..Maybe it was because i went in with low expectations after reading all the mixed reviews.. ? Not sure.But really, other than the long dancing numbers which i found to be really time consuming,I really enjoyed the story line,the acting and the characters.You would honestly find me laughing most of the time..(if i wasn't forwarding the songs that is).I loved every character in the movie especially 'Angad' and 'Peter'...they were really hilarious.Overall,Great Rom-com for a fun evening :)

Main Tera Hero is an action-comedy, right? So, it should do a good job on both fronts. As for the comedy portion, it is not funny for the majority of the scenes. And it does not even start to get funny until Seenu (the main character) gets to Vikrant's (the gangster) house. That does not happen until about the halfway mark in the runtime. However, once the setting shifts here to Bangkok, things start to pick up a bit. The confusion amongst a lot of people in a big house is reminiscent of Full House and has its moments. Vikrant is the funniest one, with his echoing voice. However, the echoing voice gets overused and loses its charm. While the movie has redeeming qualities by this point, it is not enough to save it on the funny front.As for the action, it is classic Bollywood: no regards to physics and some unnecessary scenes just to add to the drama and making the hero look good. So it is not really a bad thing, just a little annoying when a metal box to the head does nothing more than cause a baddie to take a step or two back (the scene on the train), but throwing a guy to the ground renders him ineffective (Angad's four guys coming after Seenu at college). With regards to "adding to the drama", there was the scene as Seenu enters Vikrant's property and beats up a bunch of his guys. There is no point to this when he knows who Seenu is. What if Seenu got injured in the melee? There is a lot of romance and that is pretty sweet to watch. It's quite heartwarming to see how far Seenu goes to be with Sunaina when so many are trying to keep this coupling from happening. And that goes the other way too. Sunaina does what she can to make sure their ending is a happy one. Overall, I was pretty disappointed. I was waiting for the end by the 15- minute mark. While the cast was well selected, the dialog simply was not up to par.

In the 90's David Dhawan and Govind teamed up together to entertain us with the best of bollywood madcap comedies. These movies had the same logic as the Tom and Jerry cartoon shows, u wanna watch u better give your brain a rest-the movies were entertaining and provided a good laugh as long as you ignored the fact that what was happening on the screen was just non stop nonsense, but what the hell, you were being entertained and you were not being bored and you are stress free.Years later today, David Dhawan brings his son Varun Dhawan with a similar mad cap comedy which catapulted Govinda to stardom. You have the same jarring colors, the same brainless heroines and a villain who is never to be taken too seriously and above all MEIN TERA HERO has good music, the tapori kind which Govinda excelled at dancing to.Seenu (Varun Dhawan) is an older version of Dennis the menace and when he is rejected in marriage by an obese girl because he is not a graduate, he embarks on journey from Ooty to Banglore to get a Degree.On the way he bashes some goons who try to eve tease some girls and establishes himself as a hero material and not just a comedian.He joins a college and woos Sunaina (Ileana De Cruz-with bad makeup) who is in fact being stalked by a police officer Angad (Arunodhay Singh), who bashes any guy who even talks to his girl.Seenu outwits Angad and takes off with Sunaina, only to witness her being kidnapped. Angad informs him that the kidnapper is Vikrant (Anupam Kher) an international Don located in Bangkok. Vikrant's Daughter Ayesha (Nargis Fukhrey-with bad acting skills) is in love with Seenu and so her father had Sunaina kidnapped to blackmail Seenu to marry Ayesha.The movie then heads for a roller coaster ride with laughs galore including a rather funny shiv bajan tuned to the music of badtameez dil.Varun Dhawan is confident and carries himself well and you can see sparks of Govinda in him in most of the scenes.Arunodhay Singh is funny with a poker face and gives a good performance, especially the anger management scene is one of his best in the movie.Ileana De Cruz would take the award for the worst makeup of the year. The girl was good in Barfi, but gives a kind of kindergarten school kid stage show performance.Nargis Fukhrey with the weird accent tries hard to perform, but drops her act midway and joins Ileana as why the hell do I have to act, when I can expose attitude.Anupam Kher is the highlight of the movie, the don who says the word in his every sentence thrice because he was from a "Pahadi Ilaaka".Music by Sajid-Wajid replicates the Anu Malik style of music, the songs are fresh, foot tapping and energetic. The PALAT song says it all.Kudos to David Dhawan for bringing the colorful comedies of yore back.If you love tom and jerry, you would love this movie too-please do not forget to leave your brain behind when you set off to watch this.
