    worse than bad

    unless you have 12 kids or believe in having your own gold elephant then you will not like this film. you know dancing weak looking little guy probably plays for the other team and this freak is the hero. lots of dancing extras. just pure rubbish acting stereotyping at its very worst, talk about how to show a people in a bad light. i have seen many Bollywood films and this goes up there with superman really have to see that one just cause its so bad this film is so bad i want to go to war. well apparently i have to write 10 lines of how much i hate this film yes its really really bad, so bad it gave my neighbour cancer,cause he heard 1 minute of the music,this film caused a zombie attack to be cancelled because they did not want to come back as long as this existed

    Worth watching for the ones who like Bollywood

    Although Indians are not good at action movies, they're really good at romance. This film is a mixture of both of them. Some scenes were not logical, for example when Lovely got private number calls again and again he chould have prevented it. Instead, he kept talking on the phone with that unknown person. Another illogical thing was that how he could fall in love with a person whose face he has never seen. Apart from these, the film is amusing and the music is so touching. It made me cry. Salman Khan is such a good actor. And so is Kareena Kapoor. To sum up, the film is worth watching though there are some illogical parts because it's a romance and Bollywood is really good at romance.

    Its all star power to blame.

    Bodyguard seems to be a follow up of Dabbang and Ready, Salman Khan's previous blockbuster but it seems a more messy mash up of these earlier versions. The film didn't show any promise neither from its trailer neither when the reel starts rolling. As the painfully hilarious proceedings go on there is no way you can concentrate except to wonder how far Salman's star power is going to drag this film. It is evident that the director has put all his test on Salman and played a rather bold step. Not surprisingly the movie will be a crowd pleasure for many a viewer but there a re many who will be fatigued by its lack of plot and tactless story telling.

    Meant to be a love story the movie is as predictable as a five year old can imagine. But the most painful scenes are the incessant annoying jokes from the side characters and the naive portrayal of the lead character.May be fat jokes were never this bad. In this male star power driven film there is definitely no space for Kareena Kapoor to show her talent. Whatever but as time passes by and peril hovers on the female lead the action scenes we are fed is not that brilliant too. As many previous films have proved that hero worship is not bad for box office but at least they should be made credible enough for all to believe or at best convincing. But no Bodyguard is a far cry from this and instead we get is a lot of crappy and cheap special effects. And the last and the most important scene of unbuttoning Salman's shirt was by far the worst creativity anyone can come up with. Its really sad that after so much of crazy mishaps there was some substance at the climax of the film. Though the writing at the climax should be praised it is too less an too little after two hours of stupidity.

    At least Salman's charisma works enough for you to wait till the end. Its surprising that a single performance can put such leverage to a film as such. And a special applaud to the song 'Teri Meri' which was much better than all other mediocre tracks. At the end it doesn't seem fair that a single star and a single song put so many audiences through the film. May be such case shouldn't be criticized rather appraised for such a daring feat.

    A love story which happens to be a masala movie.

    After Dabbang and Ready, this film is going to be third consecutive feather in Salman's cap.

    I felt a little disappointed with the treatment of the movie. The screenplay rushed at an odd pace. The first half was intriguing and speedy, but the second half stammers a bit. Again, in the last 20 minutes, we see a hurricane of emotions.

    The movie has all the proportionate elements of a Masala Movie, but I seriously felt a letdown in the humor quotient of the movie. The so- called "Tsunami Singh" was a high disappointment, rather than him, his T Shirts looked funny. The dialogues were above average.

    A die-hard Salman fan might get disappointed, but it was a pleasure seeing Salman in a romantic movie; that too; was totally unexpected. Music boosted the movie, due to which, the faulty screenplay gets sidelined.

    Salman Khan is in top notch here. Kareena is back in the form. Mahesh Manjrekar, Aditya Pancholi, Raj Babbar are remarkable. Rajat Rawail as Tsunami is a letdown. He acts well sans comic timing.

    Editing by Sanjay Sankla is good, he manages to keep the movie on track in spite of futile screenplay. Cinematography by Sejal Shah is marvelous.

    Himesh Reshammiya has lived up to the expectations from the fans. Background score from Sandeep Shirodkar is top class.

    After watching this one, my recent favorites from Salman goes in the following order. 1. Dabbang 2. Bodyguard 3. Wanted 4. Ready

    Finally, watch it! Even if you are not a Salman Khan fan, you wont regret watching this one.

    Waste of time and money

    The 'Try to be' remake of Dabangg but its all waste and crappy. One body guard trying to protect our heroine from the villain but there is one thing missing, the Story. There is no story in this film and to make some money out of it main attractions has been all the cast list. I would advice Salman Khan to stop experimenting because Dabangg was one family venture which went all excellently right but this piece of crap is down the drain. No doubt the action is good but acting is very poor and also the story line Two Hollywood movie stories cannot make one Hindi movie. Telegu action sequences OK acceptable. Salman's acting have also deteriorated in this movie other than Dabang. I give only 3 out of 5 to Salmans action and total movie acting rest of the cast sorry to say, made a mess.

    • Trivia
      Salman Khan had offered the role of Lovely's father to his good friend Sanjay Dutt, but Sanjay declined, feeling there was not enough of an age difference between them. Later Salman decided to drop that character.
    • Goofs
      In the final fighting scene where Lovely Singh (Salman Khan) kills Ranjan Mhatre (Mahesh Manjrekar), he is shown topless, but after this scene he is shown carrying Divya S. Rana (Kareena Kapoor) while wearing a black shirt. How could he have wore a dry shirt when earlier he dropped it in the water while fighting?
