This is one of those brainless comedies that can't be seen without a brain. As in there are three people with the same name who reach the same place at the same time. So keeping track of the chaos cannot be done without some gray-cell exercise. And, honestly, I did see this as a situation with tremendous potential for craziness. But, it's all too commonplace and just doesn't work out.

The first Laxmi Narain is Tusshar Kapoor, a bhai-to-be with justifiable reasons for matricide, out to get his first kill. The second LN is a moronically indecisive Suneil Shetty, out to buy a vintage car for his boss. The third LN is undergarment seller Paresh Rawal, out to get designs and move into 'lingeries,' we're told.

It is hard to believe that 'One Two Three' is a film directed by the same man who gave us the immensely enjoyable serial 'Office Office' on television. The movie doesn't have even half the amount of wit that we saw in the sarcastically humorous teleserial.

1 of 1 people found this review helpful To be honest, there are some seriously funny moments that make you laugh the loudest, which dull the impact of a weak storyline. Suniel Shetty is lovable in his bhola act; Tushhar Kapoor is OK while Paresh Rawal shines in bits...

1 of 1 people found this review helpful Of the cast, forget the best, even the master Paresh Rawal. For here, Pinto (Sanjay Mishra) steals the show. His take-off on yesteryear villain Jeevan is hilarious. The way he boasts diploma holder in bomb making, Jharkhand University, is simply hilarious! He doesn't bore, in spite of being there throughout the movie.

With a film like One Two Three, although a great cinematic experience was never expected to begin with, the film is unable to even fulfil the basic requirement of being entertaining; forget entertaining, the film is not even tolerable!

The film is lost somewhere in the dark walls of the theatres, leaving no memories for the viewer to take back after the movie gets over. Ashwani Dhir – bad direction, good dialogues, lost script, bad screenplay. Nirmal Jani's cinematography is good in parts. Editing is okay.

A movie like One Two Three demands a couple of things. You're required to leave your brains back at home and dare not look out for a story as more often than not, there aint any... Some movies of the same genre and style works wonders but most of them fall flat...

The presence of stars like Suniel Shetty, Tusshar Kapoor, Esha Deol, Sameera Reddy will help the film getting noticed at the initial stage. But not -so -coherent script and wafer- thin plot will go against it. The film is likely to do better at multiplexes and big centers than smaller centers. A below average fare at the box office.

1 of 1 people found this review helpful There is no other way than to say this but by the time I got to the half way mark of 123, I was close to slitting my wrists! The movie despite having stars like Paresh Rawal and Suniel Shetty left me counting down the minutes till the end credits rolled...
