If U have the patience to get through the first 1 hour of the movie, then it can be interesting and a laugh. The first hour f the movie is a bit boring and dragging and the time machine looks like something from a B-grade movie.
BUT
once the movie is past interval it start picking up, with some serious comedy, and both Akshay and Aish looks very good.
Your right, the later half has better comedy and more entertainment, ONLY compared to the first half, the movie is still pretty bad.
For ppl trying to decide if they wanna watch it or not, the only way u'll enjoy this is if u leave reality, and don't care about plot holes, then u can just sit back and enjoy the comedy. Did Akshay fans like this one?
Actually the Time Machine looks like the step-child of the one used in The Time Machine http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0268695/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_36 remake starring Guy Pearce
