Too many fans seem to be blown away
not horrible nor great
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
View MoreDirected by Rohit Shetty, the man behind the two recent Golmaal films – the first hilarious, the second not so – All The Best stars Fardeen Khan and Ajay Devgan as buddies Veer and Prem, who owe an awful lot of money to a local don, but have no means to raise it. Renting out Veer's sprawling Goa bungalow seems to be their only choice, but when Dharam, his burly step-brother played by Sanjay Dutt, shows up unannounced, Veer and Prem find themselves trapped in a mess of their own making.To increase his monthly pocket money, Veer has been lying to Dharam that he's married to his girlfriend Vidya, but Dharam has never met his sister-in-law. When Dharam mistakes Prem's wife Jhanvi (played by Bipasha Basu) for Vidya, no one bothers to correct him. So the real Vidya (played by Mughda Ghodse) must pretend to be Prem's girlfriend Jhanvi. Confused? Wait there's more. There's also the issue of the don's loan, and the new tenant wanting to move into the bungalow, but Veer and Prem are trying hard to hide those dirty little secrets from Dharam. An ensemble piece, apparently based on a popular play, All The Best wanders aimlessly for its first 15-odd minutes, only to come into its own with the arrival of Dutt's character Dharam, whose scenes with Devgan's Prem are easily the film's funniest. The set-up also includes a bunch of madcap characters including a mute gangster who communicates by rattling a spoon inside a glass, a Malyalee housemaid with a deep voice, a crackpot tenant who can't wait to move into his new house, and a tempo-driver who wants to unload the furniture in his vehicle so he can attend to his pregnant wife. The humour in this film isn't exactly smart, but it helps that the makers give you little time to dwell on that fact. The jokes come flying at you from all directions, and it's hard not to break into laughs when a big guy like Sanjay Dutt participates in the silliness. Shorter in length – its songs sacrificed, its action scenes trimmed – All The Best might have been a great Diwali treat. As it currently stands, it's a delicious one-time watch
View MoreI loved some of the songs and the colours were beautifully welcoming but Rohit Shetty needs to quit while he's ahead. All his movies are frivolous (albeit funny) and painfully similar. Definitely leave your brain at home with this one. It's follows the same formula as Golmaal, Golmaal Returns and Sunday. Men trying to swindle women all for the sake of laughter and proving that their are the dominant sex. The actions seemed like the poor man's version of RACE meets SPEED RACER + Johnny Lever replaces Tushar Kapoor as the mute. Yes and leave it to Rohit Shetty to make Sanju Baba look all washed up and ready to retire(I saw him in 'Blue' and 'Luck' and he didn't look desperate like he did in this film) Oh! yeah and he(Shetty) does not avoid controversy by poking fun at Black people as he always does. I don't know what his beef is with Black people.
View MoreIt is the biggest piece of s#%& movie i've ever seen in my life.I went to watch this movie with my cousins, thinking we would have a good laugh.. well as it turns out.. the joke was on us..We left the movie hall during interval (first time ever that i've done that in my life), totally disgusted and 1000 Rs. down.The only reason we stayed till interval was so that we could finish the large popcorn and cola we had bought (else it would have been within first 20 min).I actually went out and asked the nice people at the popcorn counter for some ear buds (so that I can sleep) and finally got some cotton, but even that wasn't enough to ease the suffering.Okay.. now about the performances ||Ajay Devgan: Abysmal.. yes we know u workout dude.. but u r here 2 act ||Fardeen Khan: Why donâ't u get this u dumb a$$.. YOU CAN'T ACT.. GIVE UP ||Sanjay Dutt: Didn't expect this from you.. not after munna bhai n dunno how many fab movies. ||Bipasha: Looks hot but can't act ||The other girl: This is the first time i hv seen any of her movies (heard she was in some movie with PC also). Same review as bipasha..||||Songs ||It was like watching a slide show of super cars n bikini wallpapers... I could have easily done that sitting at home (could hv even put some nice music in background rather than the Cra$%& music from this movie)||Thats all.. anyone going for a movie please listen to this advice... ||PLEASE DON'T WASTE 2 PRECIOUS HOURS OF YOUR LIFE WATCHING THIS MOVIE.
View MoreHindi comedies tend to be rather broad, and when I read the description of this movie, I thought, "this sounds like a possibly entertaining romantic farce", and it might have had some potential in that department. Unfortunately, it's the B'wood version of a genre that is perhaps best left to the French. It has its moments, but is more or less ruined by silly sound effects and repetitious, over-the-top character tics. With 20 or 30 minutes of judicious cuts, the movie would have been at least as, if not maybe more, enjoyable than it is in its present form. The idea of partner swapping and mistaken partner identity is nothing new in the world of farce, but this example lacks a great script and is probably doomed from the start because of it. The music is forgettable. I am a fan of Ajay Devgan, but he is considerably better suited to more serious roles, in my opinion. He was superb in Omkara, for example, but his gift is really not for broad comedy; I don't understand why he keeps making movies like this...he is better than the material he has been choosing.
