Garam Masala

One of the more sensible comedies to hit the Hindi film screens. A remake of Priyadarshans 80s Malayalam hit Boeing Boeing, which in turn was a remake of the 60s Hollywoon hit of the same name, Garam Masala elevates the standard of comedies in Hindi Cinema.

Akshay Kumar has once again proved his is one of the best super stars of Hindi cinema who can do comedy. He has combined well with the new hunk John Abraham. However John still remains in Akshays shadows and fails to rise to the occasion.

The new gals are cute and do complete justice to their roles.

A must watch comedy. Leave your brains away and laugh for 2 hrs!!!! After all laughter is the best medicine ! Ask Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar !!!!!

This film is an example of how good Akshay Kumar is in comedies. He is great in his role; he deservedly won the filmfare award for best performance in a comic role for his performance. John Abraham does his part well alongside Akshay in the lead roles. Paresh Rawal did well in his supporting role. Manoj Joshi and Rimi Sen did their parts well as did Neha Dhupia. The story of this is one that promises the audience a lot of comedy scenes, and it doesn't fail to deliver them. The music isn't that good to be honest. Still, it is worth watching for the comedy.

Verdict: good comedy - definitely watch it. I give it 7.5/10

This movie was a fantastic comedy. It had a lot of comedians star in it like Akshay Kumar,Rajpal Yadav,Paresh Raval and John Abraham.

Rimi Sen was good at playing Akshay Kumars wife and so were all the air hostesses. Mr Hot as Mac (Akshay Kumar) and Mr cool as Sam (John Abraham) are two fashion photographers who like the same girl Maggie (Neha Dupia). When John Abraham cheats on his work he becomes Akshay Kumars senior and Akshay Kumar gets really jealous because his flat has to be given to John Abraham and Neha Dupia starts liking John more. Akshay Kumar wants to be better than John Abraham so he finds a flat and he is going out with three different girls (Nitu Chandra,Nargis Bagheri,Daisy Boppana).

These are one of the movies that don't require any brain or thinking, it's a very funny time pass which you forgot in the next hour or so. I was really surprised with John Abraham's acting he usually playing the gangster like character with the emotionless face,so from that to playing the complete opposite and does it successfully,by managing to shine amongst the comic geniuses such as Paresh Rawal and Akshaye Kumar. I was also quite surprised with the Akshaye's 3 girls because there roles don't require much talent but mostly moaning about Akshaye's dissapearence(to the other girls) i was surprised as they managed to establish and actual persona and you could differentiate between them which is a good thing ,also majority of songs are good,it is colourful and fun so on a boring Sunday evening this will sure lighten your mood.

Garam Masala is one of those movies that I can watch endlessly without ever getting bored. It's a laugh riot from start to finish, packed with hilarious situations, witty dialogues, and characters that are simply unforgettable. It has been a favorite of mine since childhood, and even after all these years, its charm hasn't faded.

Akshay Kumar steals the show with his impeccable comic timing, effortlessly nailing every funny moment with his antics and expressions. John Abraham, back when he showed surprising acting chops, holds his own alongside Akshay. Their chemistry and constant chaos make the movie a joy to watch. Paresh Rawal, as always, brings his A-game, adding a layer of brilliance to the already chaotic madness.

The plot is a wild, over-the-top ride, but that's exactly what makes it so enjoyable. It's pure comedy without taking itself too seriously, filled with misunderstandings, awkward situations, and Akshay juggling multiple lies to hilarious effect.

The music adds to the fun, with tracks like Ada and Kiss Me Baby capturing the playful tone of the film. Even after so many years, the gags still land perfectly, proving that the humor was way ahead of its time.

Priyadarshan's direction ensures the comedy flows seamlessly, and while the story might lack depth, it never pretends to be anything more than a laugh-out-loud entertainer. Garam Masala is a movie that belongs to every childhood memory of mine, and it remains a comedy classic that I revisit every chance I get.
