Bol Bachchan (2012)

This is one of the worst movies of all times. This is one more Golmaal rip off. I don't understand why the director is obsessed with Golmaal. He has already made a string of sequences of it. There is nothing to laugh in the film - not the situation nor the dialogues. There were one or two good comedy dialogues by AB in the whole film - that's it! Krishna also fails at comedy, he cries in a particular way whenever something bad happens in the film. It is supposed to be funny - I don't think so! AD speaks some weird English language, but again not funny. Prachi Desai looks sweet and Asin does OK in whatever chance she gets. Overall - one of the worst films. If such directors are encouraged in the industry, then I don't see a good future for our films.

Rohit Shetty after hit comedies turned to action with SINGHAM(2011) which was a runaway hit. Rohit Shetty's ALL THE BEST was a lame adaptation of Hrishida's earlier classics. BOL BACHCHAN is inspired by Hrishida's GOLMAAL(1979) which however is modified, Just the basic concept is the same and some twists. I wont be foolish to compare it to the classic as RS is no Hrishida Bol Bachchan doesn't only resemble GOLMAAL but the story has been done to death by David Dhawan in COOLIE No.1, Saajan Chale Sasural and Chor Machaiye Shor. There are many scenes copied with dialogs from Chor Machaiye Shor(2002).Like the scene where Ajay and Neeraj Vohra lend in Abhishek's house and also the dialogue by Abhishek Izzat kam ho jaati hai. Also several more scenes are similar to CMS which was a flop. BOL BACHCHAN's biggest asset is the dialogs especially the half broken English dialogs for Ajay Devgn. To start with the film starts with an item number with Amitabh, Abhishek and Ajay Devgan in their own voices and then Bachchan gives a warning that only his name is in the film. Seconds later we are introduced to Small B in a simple avatar. Then Ajay Devgn is introduced with all the slow motion shots, loud background score.etc Every scene of Devgn is shot in the same manner which gets repetitive soon. Rohit Shetty seems to have not forgotten SINGHAM or perhaps he intendedly let the hangover of that film creep in, Ajay's character is moulded like mix of Utpal Dutt and Singham character. some scenes have the same background music of Singham too, even the action scenes are similar with the same over the top slow motion punches, the extras leaping slowly after being hit. There are some funny scenes like the first scene by Ajay-Abhishek, even the scene where Abhishek cooks an alibi about his name and his brother later. Abhas's intro is quite funny though long drawn. Abhishek's dance is funny. Also the scene where all his 3 mothers arrive on the scene. The best part is the hinglish dialogs inspired from TASHAN but work well. The film keeps reminding us the GOLMAAL reference, from the play act which is named GOLMAAL which also has comedians VIP imitating Utpal Dutt(better then Ajay Devgn imitating Utpal in 1 scene) and also a scene showing Golmaal(1979) on TV which is a copy paste of a similar scene from COOLIE No.1(strangely the same movie was shown there too) The second half has some funny scenes too but some scenes don't work too, like the forced Asin lookalike track, Rohit Shetty tries to cram in too much just for the sake of laughs which is boring at many places, like in many scenes we suddenly have Abhishek and Krishna break into some weird jigs which don't work. The climax too is long drawn and isn't impressive much. Also there is the usual masala of Rohit Shetty which is playing with cars, blasting cars, buses.etc which is repetitive.Direction is average Music by Himesh is okay, CHADAON NA NAIN is good, Chori se nazrein by Ajay-Atul is the best track Dialogues are awesome, especially those mouthed by Ajay DevgnAjay Devgn with a tattooed torso(which doesn't gel with his villager role though) with a well built body looks great. He plays his part with a mix of the SINGHAM Angry Young Man act and also mixes it with comedy and does it very well, for an actor who was initially awful in comedy, slowly his comedy is getting much better though at times his act does get boring. His high pitched baritone dialogue delivery is also at times irritating, yet he does a good job especially when it comes to delivering the English lines. Abhishek in his first attempt perhaps in full over the top comedy tries his best, he does a good job especially in the gay act, as Abhishek too he plays the serious scenes very well, in comedy too he is good at times but at times tends to look uncomfortable. Prachi Desai looks cute and does a decent job Asin however annoys with her dubbed voice Amongst rest Krishna gets lot of scope and does the most of it, in his second innings thanks to Comedy Circus, after the dismissal debut in YEH KAISI MOHABBAT HAI(2002) which is forgotten, Govinda's nephew does a good job though at times he does get too loud and jarring VIP is however releagated to the backseat. Archana Puran Singh is superb in her act thankfully not hamming it up with her shreaky voice like she does mostly. Though not as great as the late Dina Pathak in the original. Asrani was a regular in Hrishida films hence it's strange seeing him in a lame remake of GOLMAAL which was one of the best films by Hrishida. he is as usual. Neeraj Vohra after recently making small appearances finally gets a meaty role which reminds us of Om Puri in CMS, he does a great job He gets most of the best dialogs too. The villain is okay

I Was Dragged to the Theater to watch the movie. At first i thought i was in for a big boredom and common not funny jokes. But This Turned out to be a good but not as good as Gol Maal 1979 movie. But I'll Say This is actually a good remake of the movie. The jokes Were good, and the story line of Gol Maal 1979 was kept with Extra Humor of Present Day. But The Flaws of the Movie was that it goes on with a good story and humor and all of sudden it falls down and gets bored and a again becomes more funny and entertaining this results in fluctuation of the entertainment to a good level and then a bored level. But Its a good movie to watch as it also teaches moral of life. so my 6 is for its moral, humor and still able to maintain a Classic Movie Remake (Gol Maal 1979) and for the -4 is for the Fluctuating entertainment.

Rohit again directed superb combo movie(Action,comedy)..... Movie is awesome and full entertaining...... In whole movie you will not feel a moment of boring and keeps you laugh!!!!!!!!Ajay and Abhishek has Rocking performance!!!!!! In last 15 minutes you will feel the same scene as in "no entry" movie,however Rohit directed it in much better way!Enjoy the Movie and it will make you Relax and feel better! Krishna also done good performance,but some scenes you will feed he has done over acting.overall good Movie!!
