    Brilliant

    One of the best films I've seen in a very long time. The movie grabs you from the first intense car chase scene and never let's you go. The movie is full of realism drama. The performance were great. The movie get's you involved, It's gets you to think. Revolves around the biggest problems of our nation- "Justice". Brilliant Storytelling, Investing Characters, Great Dialogues. It delivers everything that an audience expects. Some performances deserve a filmfare. Thanks to Subhash Kapoor's directing that he delivers one of the best films of the year or maybe all time. Quite shocking that the government didn't cut out few scenes. I guess in a way the government is accepting that these practices do involve in our society. Overall Jolly L.L.B. deserves 8/10.

    Jolly Llb (U/A) Hindi --------------- my Rating : ★★★½ THIS CASE IS VERY SERIOUS

    Jolly Llb (U/A) Hindi --------------- my Rating : ★★★½ THIS CASE IS VERY SERIOUS

    STRENGTHS :- * Screenplay : very engaging till end........ * Background score : was awesome........ * Casting and Performance : was class n drama especially arshad n boman rocks...... * Direction and Story : was great but the concept is different but the plot is like the movie "NO ONE KILLED JESSICA" * Dialogues : are stronger n effective .......

    WEAKNESSES :- * Songs : was is an below average...... * Heroine : she is of no use in the script....... * Comedy scenes : are boring we will be yawning for those in the second half ......

    FINAL VERDICT :- *OVERALL it is not a comedy flick......the entire movie is serious ... good one .....catch this.....

    Jolly LLB is a social satire on the law system of the country, where a small town lawyer Jolly (Arshad Warsi) is pitted against a hugely successful lawyer (Boman Irani). Arshad Warsi,Amrita Rao.

    Jolly LLB works because of its bigger point - decency is for all and worth fighting for

    I agree with the comments, but Arshad Warsi was the best as shown from Meerut. The problem is with director who was unable to get Arshad into the Character. Everyone knows Arshad Warsi character in "Lage Raho Munna Bhai".

    The film is a fun watch if you are willing to overlook its minor indulgences and the slow pace of the first half.

    Jolly LLB's first half meanders a bit, featuring a clumsy 'daaru' song and a Meerut that mysteriously hides - but boy, does its second half hammer things home. With crackling scenes between Jolly versus Rajpal (Irani deadly smooth, like velvet soaked in blood) and Rajpal versus judge Tripathi (Shukla in a brilliant show, hysterically yelling, Gavel kidder-rakha Ha?!", thundering at Rajpal, "Sit down! Yeh Meara court Ha aapka club nahin!"), the action becomes electric. Drama builds as Jolly (Warsi, highly endearing and impressive) finds his voice. Jolly's astonishment at Rajpal's callousness - "Footpath sone ke liye nahin Ha" - Jolly responding, "Footpath gaudy chalane ke liye Bi nahin Ha!", mirrors the aam aadmi's bewilderment and determination to fight.

    Jolly LLB works because of its bigger point - decency is for all and worth fighting for. Using bittersweet satire and plot twirls, the film shows corruption even used against the corrupt. Despite that weaker first half, this truly becomes a Jolly good show.

    Strong enough

    This is not the best courtroom movie ever made but will be one of the better ones. The movie does pack a strong satire about the systems in India.

    Many scenes are there just to add some comic relief but my opinion is that they do balance the load of the satire and set the tone for the movie.

    The change of character was a bit sudden and could have done with a little depth. The songs and dances were unnecessary (although Arshad Warsi is a great dancer). The twists are quite good.

    Unlike some other reviewers, I believe: Arshad's acting was quite good (but could have been better). Boman's acting was above average (but not great). Amrita's acting and diction were not up to scratch. Saurabh's was the best acting in the movie. The evidence was there. The decisions were made based on evidence, not on emotional speeches. Please keep this in mind and don't get carried away by the speeches. The story is set in very raw tones and inspired by reality.

    Some parts of the movie are not convincing but overall, I still liked it enough to give it an 8.

    An Honest & Well-Intensioned Film!

    'Jolly LLB' Directed by Subhash Kapoor, is An Honest & Well-Intensioned Film! It has a worthy, inspiring story to tell & bravura performances working to its advantage. This Is Good Cinema!

    'Jolly LLB' Synopsis: A small-time advocate goes head-to-head with a high-profile advocate, when the former re-opens a controversial case.

    'Jolly LLB' works because the Screenplay is strong & progressive. The narrative is funny, inspiring & honest. The final act, stands out. Its wonderfully penned & executed. Subhash Kapoor has directed the film with utmost honesty & sincerity. He handles the comedic as well the dramatic portions like a pro. Cinematography is perfect. Editing is sharp. Music by Krsna is good.

    Performance-Wise: Arshad Warsi is competent. A consistently great actor like Boman Irani is flawless, yet again. Saurabh Shukla is on a roll. After his stupendous performance in 'Barfi', Shukla emerges a scene-stealer in 'Jolly LLB'. His portions are marvelous & his performance is among the reasons why those portions work. Amrita Rao is fine. Mohan Kapoor & Harsh Chhaya are efficient. Sanjay Mishra, Brijendra Kala & Mohan Agashe shine in cameos.

    On the whole, 'Jolly LLB' is a worthy watch.

      The whole case is a reference to famous hit and run case involving grandson of ex-admiral of Indian Navy; who was reportedly drunk and driving and crushed some people on footpath. Many of instances in movie were clear reflection to the actual case.
    • Goofs
      There is a scene in the movie where Jolly was telling Judge in court that he was beaten by goons (sent by Rajpal). In reply Judge told Jolly that he need security and it must be provided to him and The Judge said,"I ordered Police to arrange your security". Right at the time this dialogue was delivered by Judge a mobile SMS received ring tone can be clearly heard in the back ground.
