Right now, Sunny Leone is gorgeous to look at, but we know that already, and struggling to emote, which has been her bugbear in her last few outings as well.

Contrary to what the film’s publicity and songs would have one believe, One Night Stand isn’t yet another tawdry skin-flick with exploitative cleavage shots in place of a script.

One Night Stand is still an average film with a run-of-the-mill theme. It, however, is one of the better finished products with a similar recipe.

Well, for one, there is hardly any heaving and moaning sex.

Disappointed? Don’t be. There is plenty more that makes this film a one-time watch.

No matter how hard the director tries to liven up the proceedings, the absence of genuine substance prevents One Night Stand from rising above the irretrievably banal.

Sometimes good actors do have the power to exalt a mediocre script, but both Sunny and Tanuj fail to sink their teeth deep into their characters. Their acting lacks flair. She never looks genuinely harrowed and his demeanor is far from dangerous.

…suffers due to a weak script. It does have its moments, however at the box-office, the film will struggle fighting the competition from other big releases.

One Night Stand is a very competent film. It’s commercial packaging does create a bit of contrast to its relevantly real themes. But that’s not really a bad thing. Even with it’s middle of the road approach, this edgy film on sexual flings and intimate relationships has the right ideas. Watch this and you’ll be bound to giving it a nod of recognition.

One Night Stand is easy on the eye and not heavy on the heart despite the dramatic potential of the plot.This an erotic emotional excursion that makes me curious  to see what the debutant direct would attempt next.Hopefully a companion film about a female stalker who won’t take   no for an answer.

It’s just not the male prerogative to be predator.

Lad obsessed with a beautiful girl he met in a faraway land discovers she lives in the same city, is a propah sati-savitri and begins to stalk her. And his attempts at being stalker are so pathetic you cannot but laugh. Everyone tries so hard to ‘act’, you wish it were an honest to God skin flick instead of this dreadful feminist ‘equal right to make out with strangers’ thing…

The only reason to watch One Night Stand is if you are a Sunny Leone fan and if you are interested in keeping up with her Bollywood work. Also, the plot of the film is different from many Bollywood movies. It is worth a one-time watch.

When you sign up for a Sunny Leone film, there are expectations of a certain kind. For such a single-minded audience, Sunny delivers with foamy swipes across her body in slow-mo and openmouthed moans. But those hopeful for more, shouldn’t be. As the title suggests, this isn’t a story of free love, rather freelance lovemaking. And while extra-marital affairs have become jaded in films, milked largely by the Bhatts, this one targets a proposition close to the Indian male fantasy — having one with Sunny Leone.

Written by a woman, directed by a woman, but that doesn’t change much about what Sunny Leone or her films have come to represent in Bollywood. One Night Stand is also about sex and titillation, yet is eventually square and conventional when it comes to the overarching issues of morality and family values, the good woman and the bad one, the temptress and the caring wife.

This is Leone’s most classy film to date. And she deserves to do more of such movies.
