The film shows a school teacher who decides to wrestle to raise a sum of money necessary to keep the school's music program running. Though he used to be a former wrestler but its Mixed Martial Arts which he has to learn this time and the stage is an UFC match! It's a sports comedy film which certainly isn't disappointing as far as the genre is concerned. Kevin James has already proved his comic timing in movies like Zookeeper and others. This movie gives him a chance to prove himself as a funny yet serious character.

Special 26 is a near perfect heist film and probably one of the best in Bollywood. A strong lead performance by Akshay Kumar who is well supported by Jimmy Shergill, Manoj Bajpai and Anupam Kher. Though the film is inspired from a real-life heist, but the climax seemed a bit forced & predictable. Still the script is quite good to keep the viewers at the edge of their seats right till the end. Not to forget the amazing cinematography by Bobby Singh which impressed me a lot ! Even brilliant is the story and direction by Neeraj Pandey who seems to be in a mood for some serious filmmaking...This surely is a comeback performance by Akshay Kumar !
