t’s a cocktail all right. But one that looks better than it tastes.

As the two girls in the rigmarole, Deepika Padukone (first-rate) and debutante Diana Penty (pretty good), make a fair fist of the job of getting an array of emotions across during breaks from cavorting through the streets of London and having a good time

Cocktail can make for a decent time-pass watch if you have the capacity to digest the cliched melodrama.

There are several reasons why Cocktail was one of the keenly-awaited releases this month; the music was hugely popular, Imtiaz Ali – directed of Jab We Met, Love Aaj Kal – is credited as the story-writer and the film is directed by Homi Adajania, who last

Gautam likes Veronica. Veronica likes him too. Gautam falls for Meera. Now what does Meera do? Three close friends find themselves caught in a vortex of emotions.
Times of India
Bearing in mind Homi Adajania's previous and debut movie 'Being Cyrus', and the promos of the movie, it was indeed having a 'Cocktail', which means 'mixed' kind of feelings. The promos and the hype suggested that it would provide a good modern-day love st

When you see two pretty chicks and a hunk prancing around in foreign locales looking deliriously happy singing about deep friendship, you know, of course, what to expect. Not only will both girls fall in love with the hunk in question, but the film will a

You'll love Saif, Deepika and Diana basically because they were being themselves.

As far as entertaining storytelling goes, Cocktail is far from being that. As the clock crawls by, the story goes from nothing to nowhere. Even as the first half with its free-spirit, cheerful vibes, and breezy treatment has you savoring the mix and going

Mid-Day
Homi Adajania’s Cocktail has much in common with those films. It’s astoundingly good-looking, filled with seductively-shot songs and fun montages of friends doing goofy things together.
First Post
What strikes most about 'Cocktail' is the sheer freshness that it brings in. Whether it is the shot execution, dialogues, situations, scene placement or the way characters handle situations (well, at least for most part of the film), you can pretty much make out that here is a team which is trying to make a difference. Ok, so it won't be fair to say that there is an envelope being pushed to a major degree.

Editor Arunkumar's debut flick as director 'Cocktail' is faithful remake of the Canadian flick, the Pierce Brosnan starer 'Butterfly on a wheel'. Though the scripts has even converted some of the dialogues from the original for the Mollywood flick, the director and his crew has certainly succeeded in planting the movie in Kerala landscapes with needed believability.

Those who love judging a film by its trailer will be quick to assume that this is another version of ‘Love Aaj Kal’.

This one is baked fresh right from the desi factory with the ingredients of fresh music, great lyrics, excellent screenplay and great cinematography.

On the whole, Cocktail is a one time watch which does not do too many things wrong. An exciting first half and good music are major assets. A poorly scripted second half and some melodramatic moments in the climax work against it. The film will appeal to
