Letdown of monumental proportion.
Dude, I was so hyped for "Bade Miyan Chote Miyan." Like, seriously, a desi buddy-cop flick with Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff? Sign. Me. Up. But let me tell you, this movie left me feeling more disappointed than after finding out the pizza place was closed.
Director Zafar seems stuck on repeat. Instead of something fresh, we get reheated Bollywood clichés. The only surprising thing was the pre-interval helicopter stunt, and even that felt more like a magic trick than anything mind-blowing. The rest of the action scenes? Total snoozefest. Shaky camerawork made it impossible to see the fight choreography, and the whole thing felt rushed and forgettable.
Don't get me wrong, I love Kumar and Shroff. They're both awesome actors. But the script did them a dirty trick. Their banter felt forced, and their characters had zero depth. They never clicked as a team, which left me wondering why they were even paired up. Even the villain, played with some energy by Prithviraj Sukumaran, couldn't save this flick from being a total meh.
The jokes were stale, like week-old reheated puns that wouldn't even make my dad laugh (and trust me, that's a low bar). The plot itself was a narrative wasteland, with no real stakes or emotional connection. Zafar's previous films at least had a touch of heart or social commentary, but "Bade Miyan Chote Miyan" felt completely hollow.
Adding to the disappointment was Alaya F's performance as Pam. Her acting felt one-note and forgettable. It makes you wonder if a more experienced actress could have brought more life to the role and maybe even lifted up the whole movie.
Honestly, skip this one. Bollywood has tons of fantastic comedies and action flicks. Don't waste your time on this forgettable mess with recycled jokes, generic action, and zero originality. Do yourself a favor and find something else to watch. You deserve way better.
