Everybody was damn excited about this film. More than 22 crores of budget, perfect star cast, Priyadarshan and amazing promotions. But Bhagam Bhag doesn't go well compared to all the above mentioned jazz. Govinda is back after a very long time but there is nothing much to do for him! He is the biggest star when you call for an effortless dancing and perfectly framed comedy but look at him in this movie. There's no solo dance no. for him, no perfectly timed comedy and he is looking old and fat. We all know, for Priyadarshan movie, don't use your brain to find out some logic in that movie. You just enjoy the trail-rail of all the comic scenes lined-up just to make you laugh! But here, nothing so great and nothing to title 'perfect comedy'. Akshay Kumar has repeated his same old comic style that has been done and re-done in Hera Pheri, Awara Pagal Deewana, Garam Masala, etc.
Still, the movie has lot to offer. The first half is fast and you'll hardly have time to understand what's going on! Govinda still has that charm and Akshay, Raghuvir Yadav, Shakti Kapoor have done justice to there roles. Not to forget, king of all comedies, Paresh Rawal! Doing all villainous roles in his earlier days and now, full-fledged comedian and character artist Paresh has also got his own space to lead some hilarious scenes. To be honest, he could've performed better. Lara Dutta is looking pretty and has some moments.
The confusion scenes between our heroes and the funny underworld guys are too hilarious and one of the highlights of the movie. The combo of Govinda and Akshay goes well all together and in spite of lesser footage value to Govinda, they both look funny and equal all together.
The music is totally in. The title song, 'Signal' and 'Tere Bin' are major hits already and ruling all the music/ video charts. Though there was some controversy with the music and story of the film. Bhagam Bhag is a re-make of a famous Tamil movie and the producer Sunil Shetty, famous Indian actor, faced a law-suit on not taking the permission before re-making. Sunil ended-up paying 75 lacs to the producers of that original movie. The music director, Pritam, has been charged of copying an English song and using that melody and tune in 'Bhagam Bhag'-the title song. In fact, all of Pritam's so-called original compositions in movies like Dhoom, Gangster, Garam Masala, Apna sapna money-money, Chocolate, Who lamhe, Pyar ke side effects, Fight-club, etc., have been lifted from other international music groups! All said and done, the movie is a good time-pass and watch-able for once. So please, do not hesitate and watch 'Bhagam Bhag' without finding any logic in it!
