Coolie No. 1

I have never rated a movie ever before. However I made it a point to login this time and Rate this particular movie. This is because, I have lost some IQ points while watching this movie.

Even from a totally mindless comedy standpoint, this movie needs to be called out for it truly underestimates its audience's entertainment appetite and this could be the only way (although highly insignificant ) i could give it back.

PS: My biggest disappointment is to see Javed Jafri in it. Why did you sign this one, dude? I can totally understand for others in this movie, but why you? I can't buy that it's for money. The only plausible reason I could think of is you wanted to show off how fit you are for this age still and this movie wanted to have at least one timeless tag to it.

PPS: David Dhawan : It's okay to just say THE END

The title is enough to describe the movie in one word. Back in 90's there was a different Bollywood. There were typical recipe masala movies, which sole purpose was to provide, typical song filled, funny (in a way) with a little drama and action based movies, in other words a good time pass movies with no sense at all. But Bollywood has changed now, with movies coming with a subject, message and some serious acting. David Dhawan back in 90's was the typical paisa wasool type director / producer, but that formula is long gone. Varun Dhawan, a good actor, but still finding his name in the industry, going for such movie will not help with its cause. Judwa re-make perhaps an idea which should have remained till that only, making re-makes, word by word, scene by scene but with more horrible overacting could be a disaster and this is what this movie is all about. Sara Ali Khan, an item figure and nothing more, she has to learn a lot and do a serious film, otherwise, wont be here for too long. Shikha Talsania, wasted, completely wasted in the movie. The movie has nothing new to offer, over acting by Varun in each and every scene, might be entertainment in cinema for few but over all a horrible thing to watch online.

Was not having expectations whatsoever from the movie as I was knowing the magic of Govinda-David Dhawan cannot be created again. However, I liked Varun in Judwa remake somewhat. Decided to watch this movie but now regretting.

This is the remake of 1995 hit Coolie No 1 but fails to entertain as much as the original movie does, even now.

David dhawan sticks to the original story but many changes can be seen in the movie. Obviously this movie has been shot in 2020 so the set looks more modern and vivid but it misses the touch of old hit.

Speaking of the performances, none of the actors seem to be entertaining the audience. Govinda's charisma and performance was misseed sorely throughout the movie. Varun comic timing in this movie is the worst. I have seen Varun's performance and he is a good actor but here he falls flat.

Kadar Khan's character was the soul of the movie apart from govinda's character. Here Paresh Rawal tries but he fails in delivering a memorable role. He is a great actor no doubt but he fails here big time.

Sara Ali Khan doesn't impressed me a bit.

This film should not have been made in the first place. No need for a remake if you can't offer something new to the audience. Moreover you are insulting the old classic and here, the old classic is made by you, David Dhawan.

Sad and totally disappointing end to the year.

I wished this film had released so the producers could feel the disappointment with the film's earnings as I was disappointed with its content.

The bad remixes, over-acting of Varun Dhawan, the constant attempt by director and actor of Dhawans to copy everything Govinda did.

Varun should stick to dancing in ABCD films. Clearly he cannot do something of his own!

One cannot copy Govind. Sure it worked (financially) with Salman's Judwaa remake but it doesnt mean it ail keep working with all the remakes. Judwaa 2 was still too lavishly made but no content.

Johnny Levers comedy is misused. Javed Jaffrey is wasted talent. Poor Sara Ali Khan that kept waiting in the balcony for someone to save the film because the writers didnt give her a chance to do anything else but be eye candy.

Stay away and keep the original Coolie no.1 film's memory intact.

I am fan of David Dhawan-Govinda movies...but this movie is an insult to his talent and name... First of all Sara Ali Khan should find some other career option, she can't act. Secondly, Varun shouldn't be considered a second Govinda...Govinda is a legend. We don't want a second Govinda. Third but not the least, talents like Paresh Rawal, Jawed Jaffery and Rajpal Yadav were misused...

Pls don't spoil the fun of 90s classics, by making such nuisance movies. I didn't have less than 1 star to give...so 1.
