Wake Up Sid! (Yawn)

I think the title of the movie says it all. If you don't find yourself nodding off in between the movie then you have the concentration of a tiger stalking its prey!
The movies tries to show the hero growing up and out of a comfortable and rich 'spoilt brat' role into an all round 'MAN' who is worth the heroin's respect.
Sadly only two things grow in the movie:
1) The cast of characters.
2) The sheer stupidity of the story.
Ranbir K. surely did not have to prepare all that much for this role because he played a similar Playstation playing 'bad-boy', in Bachna Aye Hasino (BAH), who is taught a lesson about life and responsibility by a girl. As he learns the lessons of life he revisits the significant people from his past whom he had wronged.
This is exactly the same thing that happens in Wake Up Sid (WUS).

There are several major holes in the movie. While BAH had loads of eye-candy and amazing locations to distract the audience from the lack of an interesting plot, WUS does not enjoy any such protection.
Somehow there is little or no change in the hero's lifestyle as he learns the lessons of life. He is able to afford vodka shots and regular nightouts in trendy places on an intern's salary. He still travels around in auto-rickshaws. He continues to wear designer clothes and sport a funky look which remains unchanged for most of the film.
Along with all this the heroin is able to 'support' him on an personal assitants salary!
Kashmira Shah adds a bit of much needed variety to the movie along with Supria Pathak without actually making the movie interesting.

Oh and one more thing... Rahul Khanna really needs to get some new type of roles. I have had enough of him playing the 'cute' and 'successful' guy who gets dumped (for e.g. Love Aaj Kal)!

Sleeping is better than watching this movie!
