I had to sit through this movie because I paid over a 100 bucks for it. It's hard to believe that a movie can be made that has nothing going for it. Idiotic dialogues wrapped up in gaudy phoren locations. I believe this the first movie in which the audience actually audibly groaned at the jokes that it tried to 'imply'.
In addition to that, add two UGLY women who only got roles because they can "show off". I would never want to see anything that they had to show. BAD BAD acting, coupled with a story that is absolutely stupid, I feel stupid for having watched this movie. HELP! (sob) I can't even begin to count the flaws, there is just not anything interesting here. In a scene, two characters jump of a bridge into water, and later they are shown completely dry and the lady has her make-up intact. Plus, a character is not supposed to have a thumb, and in the final scenes, we plainly see the thumb front on. The FBI succumb to the trivial eccentricities of a village cop from India, ya right. And, what more...we have bird bombs blasting away an important building in New York, FBI plotting to kill the president of the USA, two bimbos, "religious sentiment", ah...the basic Bollywood mish-mash.
If you are going on a date and want to set the evening up nicely, go to this movie. She will be so bored out of her brains, she'll do anything to make life more interesting ;)! It's a no-brainer!

Nupur Mehta is worst actress, the actress should have been taken some acting training or may have done something suited for her skills. She should have been given Razzie Award for Worst Actress for 2005.
Totally awful movie. The movie started with so much promise. The opening half hour which shows nihal-deol in Panjab was funny, well shot and well acted but after that it was just too much to bear. Where do the bollywood directors recruit their "americans". Totally blah movie. Nihal singh or Sikhs are shown in a totally insensitive light and the portrayal is stereotyping. If such a movie was made in US it would be give rise to protest about such a portrayal. The movie was technically and story wise so shabby that it was embarrassing. As usual Sunny deol is the superman incarnate, which is okay but make the story have a little more sense. To be fair it had some moments of laughter but these were so far and away and were filled with banal plot in between.
I love Sunny deol and prefer him to Arnold as the strong man in movies but this time the story writer, director and the editing team have totally let him down.
Please stay away from this one :P!!

I came upon this film, when an Indian friend of mine recommended it as an introduction into the world of Bollywood. I must say, I am not impressed. The sound effects and special effects are so amateurish that I thought I had undergone a time-warp into yesteryear. I know this is supposed to be a comedy, but the way the film was cut and directed was what made it so funny in my opinion. Even with all its flaws, there were some good moments, however. The American FBI team might have been shown as a caricature in the film, but the actors did a fine job with such poorly written material. The scene with the kid eating the ice cream was funny. The best scenes were the Brooklyn Bridge chase scene and the scene after-wards when the FBI commiserate over the female agent turning traitor. That scene had the only real moment in the film and the acting of Thomas Tevana and Gary Castro Churchwell was powerful. All in all it was a poorly constructed film with a few good scenes. I hope to see better Bollywood films in the future.
Jo bole so nihaal is a movie full of Punjabi (Indian) culture! Though I must admit, Punjabi's aren't as dumbed down as shown in this movie (I myself am one :-)
A cop looking out for a bad-guy who's framed him, Sunny Deol (Nihaal Singh) goes all guns to get 'Romeo' the villain. In fact, he goes across the globe to the US, and does things 'his way' there!
The plot contains too many loopholes to worry about it, and the humour - though funny at times - is not well executed.
To be fair, if you like irrational action, then this movie is for you. There's loads of beating people up, god-like heroism, and a little excess of patriotism & religious fervor.
I'd suggest going out for a nice dinner date, rather than spending on this flick -- unless you know you have the appetite for it!
