Seriously, who could resist a hero named Loafer!? The DVD almost begs to be played... Anyway, the film starts off really good which some extremely silly, but fun, slapstick of the kind you should really be ashamed you like. It's about a young, hairy good-for-nothing and his cousin (a catch-phrase mumbling idiot in rockabilly-due who gives comedians like Jimmy Il Fenomena a run for their money for the most annoying-but you can't hate them- slapstick act) and their quest for babes, steady jobs and their parents respect. Problem starts when the ruthless mayor and his henchmen starts to terrorize the town for protection money and Loafer is the only one with the shoes to stand up to him... Unfortunely the less humorous second part of the film, where Loafer gets wrongly accused for murder and runs for mayor really drags compared to the energetic first half and you can't help to get a little bored near the end. Also with a really kitschy love story and lots of song and dance numbers, of course.

Loafer review :

An unemployed youth (Anil Kapoor) bashes up lackey of a dreaded goon (Mukesh Rishi) and lands up in jail. The bastiwallas persuade him to stand in election against the corrupt politician (Gulshan Grover) patronizing the said goon. The loafer youth wins the election and teaches the villainous brigade a lesson..

Boney Kapoor made this low budget quickie as compensation to distributors who lost heavily on Roop Ki Rani Choron Ka Raja (1993). The film was sold to them at cheap price and they made a decent profit on their investment. Loafer was remake of some South movie and was originally titled Mawaali MLA. It had some cringy comedy scenes like a lusty Kunika falling all over semi clad Anil Kapoor. The Juhi Chawla bathing scene was lifted from Kimi Katkar's bare act in Kala Bazaar (1989). Even that film had Anil Kapoor as the hero.

This was a movie I really enjoyed, great story and good acting have breathed life into these characters in the film. Anil Kapoor shows off both his comedic timing and great dramatic chops when the time is right. The music was pretty good for most of the film,but it wasn't my favourite soundtrack. Usually David Dhawan is known for his comedy films, but here he shows he can make an excellent serious movie with bits of comedy here and there. There was another review who mentioned the main character as being named loafer, but actually the character's name Ravi. Anyways I thought the film was great and it was very enjoyable.

ANIL KAPOOR EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE IN THIS MOVIE, REALITY BASED IN THIS MOVIE JOBLESS YOUNG BOY FINDING JOB BUT INDIAN POLITICS DIVERT HIM ON ANOTHER WAY
