Vivek Oberoi doesn’t pass off as an action hero and never knocks you off your seat with his stunts, though some of them are admittedly edgy. The girls are just eye-candies. Cinematography is good, music bad, dialogues worst. There’s a deliberate twist and turn thrown in every reel to keep you from dozing off. But by the time the film climaxes, you sincerely hope for a Prince-like memory erasure.

There’s more fun to be had when you learn that Prince’s memory has actually been stolen and stored on a chip in a coin which he must find to remember something so important as to threaten the humankind.
