Highly Overrated But Still Good

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Raveena Bajaj is an heiress from London who has come to India looking for a man. Amar and Prem are two of the many men trying to make a match. Both slackers are from working class families. The two lying rivals join forces to get rid of the other suitors. Raveena's father's secret twin also has a scheme to get the family fortune.This is an old fashion screwball comedy from Bollywood. It has the broad vaudevillian comedy with the prerequisite song and dance. Comedy often struggles to cross national boundaries. Reading subtitles is an extra hurdle that one must fight through. Aamir Khan and Salman Khan are both charismatic performing fools. Their madcap antics are light fun. It's the broadest of comedy in the old fashion sense and one can feel the fun.

I had endured for a long time,but today I must say something here. IMDb is very important for movie-fans, and one of the important function is the TOP-Rated-Film.For Years thanks to IMDb,I found and saw many good Movies,which i never heard before. But you ruined it.Today i want to watch a Action-Film and open the TOP-Rated-Action-Film, in first 2 Pages,80% are Indian Films. From your Heart, do you really think every your Movies are so good? I understand, you love your Country,you want India-Movie famous in World. But please in a right way,please don't ruin other people's life. If you push too hard,it just make people hate Indian more.

This is an old classic. Situational comedy--achieved mainly through hilarious dialogues--is the forte of the film. The story is simplistic, and not much could be said about the filming, or the 4 minute song sequences. Even though the acting is average, the film scores in its genre of silly comedy and infantile dialogues. With characters named like 'Crime Master Gogo', bimbos and eccentric caricatures of old Hindi film villains (including Mogambo), there is not a dull moment in the entire film. Aamir Khan and Salman Khan on the screen gel well together. One of the reasons why every scene of this film has tremendous recall value in India, is because it has been screened an insane number of times on TV, and since its forte lies mainly in scene-to-scene situational humour, one would never really need to see the entire movie to enjoy it. So almost everyone would have seen some part of this movie in India. In that way, the absence of any serious plot has actually been helpful in making it a cult comedy.Overall, a classic of deserving fame.

The movie's comedy is completely unrealistic. It will be really difficult to laugh unless you're ready to go crazy and create laugh for your favourite heroes. Even though I enjoy a lot of humour and I've tried to be patient throughout the movie, I couldn't watch the movie beyond 1 hour 15 minutes.I also understand that the film is really nostalgic for many of the youth in 1990's, so I don't mean to hurt them by this. Who knows? Maybe this would have been my favourite movie if I watched it 10-15 years ago!In my case, the rating from IMDb has misled me in watching this movie.
