Os Quatro Loucos

Storyline is poor, but I enjoyed the movie as it has some funny scenes and dialogues and the acting was good. Most of the Indian reviewers will surprise you as they think: movies like Karan Arjun is flamboyant, movies like Main hoon na are super hits. To me, these 2 movies are boring (boring means: typical formula of bollywood) with boring acting of Shahrukh Khan. But these are blockbusters, so don't really believe these comments. Go and watch it. You will enjoy and forget, it's not a memorable movie but it will not bore you unlike other silly action, romantic, exaggerated sensitive movies ( like Karan Johar :) ) and some other Directors.

To me, this movie is average, but it's much better than other super hit movies , I will give it 5. Hritik Roshan special appearance is good, he did the dance sequence very well. Rest is good, it should not be that bad for an Indian audience as they are habituated to watch much worse movies, so I hope this movie is okay. Story is written over here, read and decide. :)

Krazzy 4 is one of those comedies that's not very funny in the first place. Irrfan Khan, Arshad Warsi, Rajpal Yadav and Suresh Menon play four mentally challenged patients who're taken to watch an India vs England cricket match because their psychiatrist Juhi Chawla thinks it might teach them a few things about team spirit. When Dr Juhi is mysteriously kidnapped however, our four protagonists are left to their own devices, roaming the streets unsupervised, with both cops and gangsters in hot pursuit. Blatantly ripped off from the Michael Keaton-Christopher Lloyd starrer The Dream Team, I'm willing to agree the plot of Krazzy 4 does inspire maybe three or four genuine laughs, but that's it, really that's just it. For the most part, the script is flat and unfunny, relying almost entirely on the four leads to save the day. That, unfortunately, is an impossible task even for talented actors such as these who pull faces, deliver clever one-liners, and try every trick in the book, but can't sadly rise above this severely flawed script. Usually even the worst films have at least some redeeming qualities, but where Krazzy 4 is concerned, it's difficult to understand exactly why this film was made. Didn't anyone concerned with the film notice that the script is incoherent? Didn't anyone realize that the humour is juvenile and slapstick and it's the kind of humour you've seen so many times before? Didn't anyone think of re-shooting all the dull bits so at least some part of the film might actually be watchable? The answer to all those questions is obviously no. Krazzy 4, if you ask me, is a fitting title for this film except that I'd like to change the number four to the number 12 or 13, or whatever number of crazy people are responsible for bringing this film to the screen. It's a shame that talented actors like Juhi Chawla, Irrfan Khan and Rajpal Yadav have been wasted in a thankless film like this which they will look back at years later and think of as a bad dream. If there's anything at all besides the end credits that brings a smile to your face while watching Krazzy 4, I'd have to say it's the two item songs in the film -- one each by Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan. And to be honest, even the one with Rakhi Sawant isn't too bad. But these are alas, small pleasures in an otherwise miserable movie-going experience. A word here for Ashwani Dhir, the film's dialogue writer who holds the unique distinction of delivering a triple whammy of disasters like 1 2 3, U, Me Aur Hum and Krazzy 4 . Dhir's lines are amateurish and laboured and they're largely responsible for why none of these films worked for me. But blame has to be shared by the film's director Jaideep Sen whose treatment here is indifferent, showing neither artistic flair nor solid grip over screenplay. Because it's a khichdi of cheap humour, unimpressive acting, and a directionless plot. It's a tragedy disguised as a comedy that I wouldn't even wish upon an enemy.

"Everyone thinks they are crazy but they're not." It is the main theme the movie is trying to show. 4 mental patients and watching their effort to rescue their kidnapped doctor is somewhat interesting but I don't see any way to say that this movie is a good one. This movie was made by crazy people for the crazy people. I don't blame actors for this, because they have done the good job. Story was fine. But, I didn't really like the dialogs at the ending scene of the movie. That was totally no fun, useless. I enjoyed while watching the movie, but not much when I left. The whole movie wasn't as good as the opening scene. But, the movie is not that bad for one time viewing.

A movie from Raakesh Roshan definitely means a lot of expectations but unfortunately this doesn't live quite up to it and more so after hearing about the movie almost being stopped from release due to copyrights on a certain song and then being told that "King Khan" was upset with the Roshans and Hrithik coming out to deny it - basically all the hype.

Four men who are considered to be mentally unstable are on their way to watch a cricket match with their doctor, when suddenly she is kidnapped and the men try to locate her.

The movie, starring Juhi Chawla, Arshad Wasi, Diya Mirza, Irfan Khan, Rajpal Yadav, Suresh Menon and Rajat Kapoor, is a good concept and is also entertaining. But one can tell exactly what is going to happen in the next scene and it was obvious who the kidnapper was. But never the less, it is still entertaining. The item songs by Shah Rukh Khan and Hrithik Roshan are worth watching and waiting for (if you are ardent fans of theirs). But unfortunately, I can't say that for Rakhi Sawant's item song - not so catchy.

Incidentally, the movie was on the point of being stopped from release because of a particular issue as mentioned before and Raakesh Roshan had to pay the original artist / composer of the song, Ram Sampat 20 million Rupees.

Conclusion: Its an entertaining movie but not something that one can feel that one must watch.

A movie from the house of Rakesh Roshan certainly raises expectations. And the publicity just before the release did add to the excitement. But all pump and show is nothing and the film disappoints in all departments.

First of all the movie is completely predictable from the very first scene and it simply goes on with sequences which are just repetition of stuff seen many times before. In a nutshell the story is about some friends witnessing a crime and then the villains keep following them in the rest of the movie. Only this time the novelty is that the four friends are all mental patients who find an opportunity to roam out of their hospital.

All the talented artists including Irfan Khan, Rajpal Yadav, Arshad Warsi and Juhi Chawla are just wasted and no one gets any scenes to talk about. Rajpal Yadav is the one who is better among the four patients as the freedom fighter. Arshad Warsi, strangely is not doing any comedy but shows that he can be an angry young man too. Irfan Khan can be seen trying to do the hard work as a mental doctor. Suresh Menon has no dialogues and speaks through his facial expressions. But as the script has nothing for them in store so they all seem to be helpless. The movie is inspired from a 1989 movie "THE DREAM TEAM" but it's not at all an impressive copy.

The greatest drawback is that it's not a comedy, though it was publicised as a hilarious comedy flick. You keep waiting for comedy scenes to come but they are never there. All the songs come as an interruption and are also not enjoyable at all. The biggest let down is the "Ek Rupaiya" song after the interval, which makes you think, why the director chose this song to be there in final print. Only the last scene with some good dialogues is a kind of silver lining in the dark clouds.

The biggest asset of the movie "Shahrukh Khan's Item Number" is well shot but it alone cannot save the film from sinking. Neither can the dance numbers by Hrithik Roshan and Rakhi Sawant. Rajesh Roshan / Ram Sampat music has nothing to talk about except the item numbers. The pace picks up just before the movie ends and the director tries to imitate a Priyadarshan kind of hilarious climax sequence which falls flat.

After you finish the screening you just wonder why Rakesh Roshan backed up this project. In my opinion the talented father and son (Rakesh & Hrithik) knew that they have a weak final product so that is the reason they added 2 item numbers and also had a last moment publicity gimmick of plagiarism.

A Big Let Down with a huge difference between the expectations and the final outcome. It is neither a good comedy nor a good thriller.
