As Indians, we were all geared up for our Bollywood beauty Priyanka Chopra's grand Hollywood debut; and the day finally arrived as her Hollywood debut movie 'Baywatch' just got released. We did come across a few Indian websites claiming that Priyanka was being praised by western critics while the movie was being bashed left, right and center. We were interested in reading for our girl by western critics and so we decided to Google the reviews by US Critics and to our surprise we found that Priyanka's role was almost ignored by most of the critics as many of them didn't even mention Priyanka Chopra. She seems to have a very little role and the movie primarily revolves around the Rock and other Hollywood actors.

The New York Times Review calls Baywatch a "Romp Full of Surf, Sand and Lots of Skin".

The Business Insider says, "The Rock can't save the unfunny movie".

According to The Atlantic, the story goes like this: "Mitch Buchanan (Dwayne Johnson, radiating his typical, effortless charisma) is the head of Baywatch, an elite crew of lifeguards who—inexplicably but also repeatedly, just as in the TV show—spend much of their time fighting beach-related crimes. As Baywatch opens, Buchanan and his team are looking for new members. Throngs of would-be watchers of the bay come out for the chance to join Mitch, C.J. (Kelly Rohrbach), and Stephanie (Ilfenesh Hadera) in the Spandex-clad squad—among them Summer (Alexandra Daddario), an athlete with a no-nonsense attitude, Ronnie (Jon Bass), a nerd with So Much Heart, and, finally, Matt Brody (Zac Efron), a retired Olympic swimmer in the Ryan Lochte mold, who was a star in individual events but—hold on to your metaphors—let the U.S. team down during the team-relay races. There’s also a drug-running villain (Priyanka Chopra), and a plot twist."
