O Teri is the rare film where the script, direction, acting and all other departments fail spectacularly. When an actor as good as Vijay Raaz grates on your nerves, you know it’s a disaster.

Pulkit Samrat ends the film with an impassioned speech about corruption and abuse of power right to the faces of the perpetrators. There is truth in these words, albeit one that barely registers because of the 106 long minutes taken to reach this moment.

The film isn’t a complete dud. It has a few good moments scattered sporadically. But had they been in order, ‘O Teri’ with a great concept, could have been a much better product.

Unlike the pessimistic but realistic ending of Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro, O Teri ends with the scamsters getting their just desserts and people becoming aware of their notoriety. It leaves us with a false hope — an empty feeling — much like the film itself…

The film’s a scam, and delivers a fake lecture on corruption and patriotism. In other words, don’t sweat for this film, it’s completely avoidable.

‘O Teri’ has delivered what it promised in its promo, a hillarious ride with twists and turns and has not misguided. But as the film, at certain important junctures doesn’t hold the attention, it is sinking and doesn’t stabilize itself.

And yes, Salman’s very neat apperance in a song at the end, takes your mind away from what you just saw.

It’s Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro reduced to noise and nonsense.

Too shrill, too convoluted and too dumb, O Teri is an excruciating test of your patience. The first thing I did on leaving the cinema was pop a pill for my throbbing headache. Even Salman Khan’s item song in the end can’t soften the blow.

O TERI is one of those movies that require no strain on the brain to review. These types of movies are made ‘for the heck of it’. There is no thought given to any detailing on film-making. It’s as though the producers decided on the cast, then decided on the director and finally, they came on the sets and took it as the mood demanded.

The filmmakers had enough matter to turn it into a riveting screenplay. Alas, they focused on vulgar jokes, unnecessary songs and some juvenile slapstick moments. What you get at the end of it all is a shoddy product which is not worth watching even if someone paid for your ticket.

Superfluous songs, poor characterization, sloppy editing and shoddy writing are just a few of the problems with O Teri. We think reading the investigation files on the many wrongdoings of the officials of CWG’s organising committee including the controversial sports administrator Suresh Kalmadi will be more entertaining than watching O Teri.

Despite its flaws, O Teri manages to come off as a breezy entertainer that works in the space of its genre largely because of its two lead actors.

O Teri from its title is self explanatory of the expression you’d have whilst watching it. We suggest you lay off the film.

This film, directed by Umesh Bist and produced by Atul Agnihotri, is not what you should be heading to watch this weekend. Even though I am not very happy to say this, you might as well watch Jai Ho on DVD, if your sole purpose is to ogle at Salman Khan on screen.

I ran for my life in about an hour from this atrocity which calls itself a film, but which is nothing but a series of dismal, embarrassing scenes interspersed with songs that are even more so.

The overburdened story unravels under a palpable nervousness to please all. Therefore, too frequent songs, too many gaalis from Kilol, too many subplots (from gamlas to gay sex) and too many poor jokes spoil the show.

Overall, the direction of O Teri simply loses the satirical plot, leaving you sighing, jaane bhi do yaaron.

…a tedious comedy which bores instead of entertaining. With not much support from music or face value, the film will go as it has come – unnoticed and unsung. Disaster!

O TERI had the potential to be a smart take on political scams and corrupt bureaucrats, but, unfortunately, the film crumbles thanks to a shoddy screenplay.

O Teri, despite being loud enough to jolt any laash alive, targets the right scumbags and has more than a couple of fun ideas, not least a soothsaying dog who — like Paul the Octopus, or a particularly cute magic 8-ball — predicts the future. Now if only they’d kept the pooch around during the edit.

O Teri is only for those that are of tough disposition or are blessed with the ability to take any load of bunkum in a darkened movie hall.

O Teri doesn’t deserve your hard earned money. News debates on TV are more entertaining than this spoof on corruption.

If you judge the film critically, it may have some flaws. But none the less ‘O Teri’ is a ‘paisa wasool’ entertainer.

Though high on the satirical note, the story-telling in O Teri could have been crisper. While the first half drags, the second half seems like the director is in a hurry to complete the movie. But O Teri can make for a decent weekend watch.
