I am excited! I haven’t watched a good old classic early 2000s movie in ages, and even longer since I watched one I hadn’t seen before. I am ready to be entertained and surprised!
Ajnabee! It’s available for rent on Prime, and on einthusan. At 3pm Chicago time I will put up an “and PLAY” comment and we can all watch along from there. Enjoy the neon! The cargo pants! Bobby curls!

I am loving KAreena’s performance as “boring dowdy wife”. She is totally selling me as the “not sexy, just silly” option.

YES! WIFE SWAP!!!! Which will end in MURDER. Or something. Maybe Bobby and Bips think Akshay and Kareena died int he next hotel room and return home pretending to be husband and wife but actually Akshay and Kareena are alive and return for vengeance?

Kareena and Bips are in love and their plan is to drive a wedge between our husbands so it will appear that they killed each other.
