Golmaal 3

When Golmaal 2 was released I thought that it had devalued the brand Golmaal, but Golmaal 3 is beyond any doubt the worst of the lot. I can't imagine such a trash movie from the cast and crew of Golmaal - the original movie. Tushar Kapoor ceases being funny after an extent and the director has not realised this and has given him an extended role. The action is mindless and has been stretched too far. Ajay Devgan is such a good actor and he has been completely wasted. Humour is given to the public is very small doses. Johnny Lever is the saving grace of the movie. I don't think anyone should waste his or her money on such a waste of a movie. I am a big bollywood fan and it has happened only twice in my 25 years of life (and believe me I have seen many films) that I have wanted to leave the theatre in between a film. To some extent it is a "inspired" from Hollywood movie Yours mine and our.

In all don't waste your money and time and don't go for the movie and I seriously hope that if Rohit Shetty is planning on making Golmaal 4, he comes up with something better.

After Golmaal and Golmaal Returns, i had high expectations of this. I'm pleased to say that it didn't disappoint me. First of all, the performances by Ajay Devgan, Kareena Kapoor, Tusshar Kapoor and Mithun Chakraborty are all good. Arshad Warsi, Shreyas Talpade and co. are also OK. Johnny Lever is hilarious as usual. Secondly, there is more comedy than the first two installments in a decent story. The only thing i'd say is that the music and action sequences could have been improved a little. People say that it is bad because it doesn't relate to the first two. My response to that is that you can't expect a Hindi comedy to continue with the same characters for two films as it will get boring. This way they can continue with Golmaal 4 and even 5. Overall a great comedy.

Verdict: you should definitely go and watch it. I give it 7/10.

Finally the much awaited Golmaal 3 released and not to my surprise it was really disappointing. Rohit Shetty might have given good comedies like Golmaal, and average comedies like Golmaal 2 and All The Best earlier, but this one was a complete let down. I should more simply put it this way that with every subsequent release, the quality of movies made by him are decreasing. There was nothing new to offer in this movie and all the jokes were old. As always, comedy in the movie was character based rather than situation based. What the director was offering was comedy which would make us laugh on characters that had something wrong with them like someone could not speak, someone stammered and someone forgot things(just like Aamir Khan from Ghajni) and there were no situations as such which made a person laugh. Even good actors like Ajay Devgan and Arshad Warsi could do nothing to save the really really weak script. As always in Rohit Shetty movies, there was a lot of noise, lot of commotion, an irritating Tushar Kapoor, some larger than life fight scenes, but no good humor this time round. Mithun Chakravarty for most part of the movie was just making painful funny faces that left one irritated. I am sure he would not want to do another movie which is even close to similar to this. The story of the movie was very predictable and I would not like to shed any light on that because that would be wasting your time. I should say that this movie did not even qualify for a brainless humor flick. For most part of the movie, everyone was fighting with each other as if they were 5th standard kids. In the end I would just want to say that by all means you should avoid this movie, and still if you are willing to see this movie, it would be on your own risk. And by the way this movie is not a sequel to the previous parts but more like an episode based on the same characters.

Settling in to watch Rohit Shetty's Golmaal 3 next to me yesterday, a friend and fellow critic discreetly confessed that he'd been to a screening of the same film a day ago. I must confess to being momentarily struck dumb, unable to conceive of someone having turned into enough of a franchise fan to repeat a viewing on successive days.

Yet my 'wow, Mr Shetty' line of surprised-impressed thought was almost instantly interrupted by the aforementioned pal, further revealing that he had fallen asleep and now needed to watch the film again to review it. Ow, Mr Shetty.

A little over two and a half hours later, I staggered out of the theatre looking for caffeine, in complete empathetic sync with the friend. The phone rang. Another critic who saw it yesterday had plain forgotten the plot, and so wanted a quick recap. I wish I was making some of this up, but no. The best thing that can be said about Golmaal 3 is that it both enters and exits your system rather comprehensively, leaving behind nothing either memorable or of consequence.

The acting was good, as always, one of the fun movies of rohit shetty, lucky and lakshmi characters were very good, a movie that I can recommend for those who want to have fun Get ready to watch Rohit Shetty's passion for cars again :)
