Leave your thoughts about Happy New Year.
| Georgia StraightItrath SyedSadly, it could lose an hour and still be inexplicably dull. |
| The Hollywood ReporterLisa TseringMore than just a sip of fizzy fun, this 3-hour comedy is Jeroboam-sized. Farah Khan’s Happy New Year is an ambitious musical, a love story, an Oceans 11-style crime caper and an ensemble comedy. |
| The New York TimesAndy WebsterShah Rukh Khan’s seasoned authority is a steady anchor amid the frantic contrivances. |
| Time OutAnil SinananBollywood's big Diwali release is an unashamedly overblown, three-hour masala movie which largely succeeds in its unambitious aim of providing mindless entertainment. |
| RogerEbert.comDanny BowesIt has some wildly fun dance sequences, some funny bits, and an impressive roster of mainstream Bollywood talent. It's a shame that those positives can't entirely outweigh the messy, lazy and dumb stuff that pads out the remainder of the running time. |
| The Times of IndiaMadhureeta MukherjeeThe cast pulls off their acts well; and leave you with some feel-good moments, but not enough to last three long hours. |
| ReutersShilpa JamkhandikarAs the second half wears on, the proceedings become monotonous. |
| Hindustan TimesRohit VatsIt's entertaining for sure but it would have been easier for the viewer to form a positive opinion about the film if it would have been edited by at least 20 more minutes. |
| ScreenAnarchyJ HurtadoHappy New Year is a brightly colored, obnoxiously loud, brutishly simplistic, yet artfully crafted pile of filmi, overly dramatic conventions and references. |
| Gulf News (UAE)Manjusha RadhakrishnanFarah Khan seems to have taken a misstep with Happy New Year. |
