Golmaal Returns (2008)

Surprisingly incoherent and boring

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Golmaal Returns is back again with full of entertainment and enjoyment. I had to clear at first that Golmaal was not in my comedy hit list since I didn't really like it although it was positively received. To me it was a damn senseless and boring story, also performances were not deeply committed by the actors.But this second version of Golmaal is quiet hilarious and hope it can be one of the best comedies of 2008. The most noticeable case with director Rohit is that he mostly repeats his favourite cast in his every movie. That includes – Ajay Devgan, Arshad Warsi, Mukesh Tiwari, Sanjay Mishra etc. This time he made a bit masala of suspense and action than Golmaal but comedy is still his favourite subject. The screenplay and dialogues are really impressive, which ignite to concentrate on the story. The new additions to this series are Shreyas Talpade, Anju Shuklani and Amrita Arora who were not in Golmaal. But Shreyas strongly proved that he is not less than Sharman who was originally casted as Laxman Prasad in the first version. This difference of casting was also handled differently by the director in t he story where Gopal (Ajay) meets Laxman (Shreyas) and asks his name, when after learning he replied there was also another Laxman Prasad who passed away. He takes out the picture of Sharman and shows to Shreyas.Arshad Warsi as inspector Madhav also performed superbly better than Golmaal, where as Tusshar is the best in his role as a deaf but true romantic barber. And as Gopal done by Ajay Devgan, I had to say this is one of his best comedian parts he has offered in his career. He improved a lot after his previous comedies like Pyar To Hona Hi Tha, Ishq, Sunday, Hum Kisise Kum Nahin or Golmaal.There is no doubt that Golmaal Returns is a clean and fresh movie without any dark side. This made the movie to be successful with majority of audiences.

This Movie is By Far the Funniest Movie of 2008!The Best Thing in the Film is Comedy! Well the First one was actually more funnier! but this time they ROCKED! Ajay Devgan, Tusshar Kapoor, Arshad Warsi and Shreyas Talpade! made Awesome Performances! Tusshar Was the Funniest! another Babe Bandwagon came in with Kareena Kapoor, Amrita Arora, Celina Jaitley and Anjana Sukhani!The Main Characters were Ajay (Gopal), Tusshar (Lucky), Shreyas (Laxman), Kareena (Ekta), According to Story is Celina (Meera)The Movie Starts with a Banging Dance Number! with all the Star cast! ends with a Solidly Funny Swing!Its a Total Brainless (EXTREMELY HIGH BUDGET) Comedy Spoof Film! The Movie Rests on Cracky Spot! but still the Funny Segments were extremely Good! The Acting done by Actors are really Good! They have done a Supreme Job! specially Kareena as a Doubtful Wife Celina, Amrita, Anjana Didn't have any Special Roles! but Celina has done a wonderful job playing Marathi or is it Tamil wife! anyways! The Magic of Golmaal Returned Really It DID!The Music ill say were a little unnecessary but its an Indian film the HEART and SOUL of it is Music whether they are good or bad!

I had expected a lot from this movie seeing the casting and previous record of Golmaal. But have to admit this is not up to the mark. Kareena, Tushar does a lot of over acting. A lot of Daily Soap stuff which I did not like. Predictable story line. A bit of Adult Humour.Dressing style of Tushar is not to the mark. Moreover this is the First Spoof Movie of Bollywood with some spoofing of Tashan, Black, Sawariya a bit action copied from Hollywood Movie "Wanted". A slow story but not too much slow. Keeps u occupied till end. A complete time pass movie. Would suggest u all to go and watch it in morning show just to save few bucks..No twists like we saw in first part..Ending is quite predictable with complete Bollywood stuff of happy ending.

First things first don't go inside the hall expecting the first part in any aspect you would be disappointed. OK now i have made my statement now to the review.The movie starts of with a typical meaningless song in the titles which every bollywood director puts if he is short of songs in the movie this type the song is not at all good and the entire crowd of extras does everything to torture you...then finally the movie starts then you would have to face a rather dull 30 minutes before starting off with the comedy train which is simply cool.As usual there is a little bit of suspense in this movie but it is not at all good and as easily predictable as the next ball of Brett Lee in Indian pitches.Then there are few scenes which makes u laugh out loud like Kareena's histrionics thinking ajay(her husband)is dead,Entire Tushaar Kapoor's mute show which makes u think he is career best when he is playing the character 'lucky'.Arshad Warsi is wasted in his role except for his little dance jig in the intermission cut which is hilarious.Background score is simply superb spoofing ekta kapoor's soaps.Now to the downturns Music is rather very bad and the only songs which are good are from the first part.There could have been more script related comedy like the first part.Oaky if you want to enjoy your day choose this movie,If you are in mood for something more thought provoking choose Mr.Bhandarkars 'Fashion' instead.
