Go Goa Gone (2013)

Overrated

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This satirical action adventure is too silly to be taken seriously but it does deliver on all the laughs. Three down on their luck duffers take a trip to Goa in the hopes that it would change their lives and little do they know they're in for the adventure of a lifetime. While in Goa, Luv (one of the duffers) meets Luna, a pretty girl who also introduces herself as his "Facebook friend" and in his quest to impress her, he accepts a weird invitation to a rave party being hosted by the Russian mafia on a remote Island. Luv grabs his two friends and they convince their host friend to sell his car in order to pay for the boat ride to the Island. Upon arriving at the party they meet up with Luna and party the night away. At some point, the mafia introduces a designer drug being sold for $5,000 a pill and only those who can afford it buy it and get high off of it (which is pretty much the entire party except the 3 friends as well as Luna and her 3 friends). In the morning, the awake to the horrible realization that everybody who took the drug has turned into a zombie. Yes, it's a zombie movie.

The make-up & graphics never looked fake which adds on to the credibility. With heads getting popped-up, bloods flowing like red wine, flesh getting ripped-off the effects are realistic enough to get audience approval.Sachin-Jigar's music gels with the mood. "Khoon Chus le" has already become anthem for majority of us who hates to wake up on Monday morning & slog our body to the workplace."Babaji ki Booty" is another gem of a song that reflects the mind of a person when one is "high".The second half might give you a feeling of Dejavu but then majority of zombie survival films moves in this set pattern. Being the first zom-com in Indian cinema the director duo aptly chose the basic concept without making a convoluted plot which might have backfired. There is homage given to iconic zombie film "Night of the Living Dead" to "zombieland" in the second half. The heart of the film reminds you of Edgar Wright's masterpiece "Shaun of the dead". Coming to the end there is also a social message against usage of drugs.On the whole Ggg is the perfect torchbearer for the zom-com genre in Hindi cinema. GGG seamlessly merged the two concepts (Zombie & Slacker comedy) & made one hell of a mad ride. Go for it – you will laugh throughout & get distresses. There is a hint of a sequel & I am looking forward to some more madness in it.

This appeared a nice movie from reviews, so went for it. But it turned out disappointing. First ever bollywood zombies movie, but instead of entertainment, appears very dull. Story is not well built. There are some comic moments, which hardly make you laugh. Pooja Gupta appears beautiful and certainly adds to the glamour quotient of the movie. She has been given screen time without much dialogues. Saif was unconvincing, just managing with the role. Go for this only if you are desperate for a movie at theatres and don't have any other choice. Just to mention, it is given 'A' certificate, as slang appear in some of the dialogues.

watched GO GOA GONE ...just like its title does't make any sense...this film doesn't make any either...they say its comedy_ I say its sh!t...they boast about its Action n VFX_ I say they are bull sh!t....its makers copied a Hollywood concept started in early 70s...okay they tell by definition what is zombie? how it works? N lots of how n what stuff(like Indian audience doesn't know sh!t)...okay ...BUT what is not okay is its poop plot, amateur screenplay n annoying overacting of Kunal Khemu....& that's not all its has whole lot of stuff i can curse about...but i'll just end with _DO NOT WATCH THIS CRAP_ message
