Bhaiyya Ji

I never anticipated that Mr. Manoj Bajpayee would choose to be part of a movie like "Bhaiyya Ji." While the storyline had potential, the script disrupted the flow, making it difficult to stay engaged. At times, the narrative felt misdirected and inconsistent, with the script misleading the story in parts. Additionally, the action scenes were excessively over the top, detracting from the overall experience.

I watched the movie primarily because of Mr. Manoj Bajpayee, whose performances typically elevate the story and do justice to the storyline. However, this time, I found myself disappointed. Despite his commendable acting, the flaws in the script and direction were too glaring to ignore.

Unfortunately, I can't rate this movie more than 4 stars.

The movie could have been so much better. It appeared to be a mix of some Sunny Deol movie, Animal, Bhojpuri movie and Rajneekanth movie, but it lacked authenticity. Manoj Bajpai's character as Bhaiyya Ji was unable to create that level of fear as was expected. He rather appears as a normal person who is making mistakes after mistakes, and getting hurt every now and then. He rather appears as a weak personality who is taking instructions from his mother and is dependent on his fiancée's shooting skills to save him several times. Some scenes were meaningless and could not understand the logic behind them. The whole fear about that Lion symbol, people passing that antique piece of lion symbol everywhere had no strong impact and was totally meaningless, and nothing changed in the story after that. The whole village gathered together to take revenge, and then all the fights were done by Manoj Bajpai and his two followers. The action was mediocre, nothing that we had not seen earlier. Zoya as Bhabhi Ji was ok, at least she looked lovely and tried to break the stereotype of size 0 heroine, and there was no overacting by her. How can an action masala film have no memorable dialogue? Dialogue writing was so poor that I am writing this review immediately after watching this movie....and can't remember even a single dialogue. I was expecting some solid dialogues, and even better dialogues which we have heard many times like "Ek Bihari sab pe bhaari" or "Zindagi Jhandwa, fir bhi ghamandwa" that has some recall value...but none in this movie. Even the language seems confusing..neither seems like proper bihari/bhojpuri/hindi and I could not understand whether the villains were Delhi boys, or Haryanvi or Rajasthani... accents of father, sons and friends all were mixed up. Bhaiyaa Ji's weapon as Fawda/Spade looked very funny to me as in the whole movie, most shootings were done by Bhabhi Ji's gun than by Bhaiya Ji's Fhawda. The title should have been "Bhaiya Ji Ser toh Bhaujai Savaser" Anyway, I am a very busy person and wasted my Friday night watching this movie just because there were no IMDB reviews hopefully my review will help some like-minded people who prefer to spend a few minutes reading some reviews and ratings before spending 2-3 hrs on watching a movie.

The utter stupidity being incarnated from what could have been the origin of one fantastic characters own trilogy is just disappointing. The movie lacks story, plot, logic, physics and meaning.

Don't get me wrong, now the movie started off brilliantly, in a brief scene building up a revenge story. Not wasting too much time on the cause, the narrative is quickly shifted towards the protagonist who is given great reason to go against some restrictions he had kept for himself.

The movie definitely seems to have taken inspiration from John Wick, but had enough going to make it seem original.

The dialogues were just brilliant and delivered with such grace and emotion. The actors did a great job as well, perfectly portraying the intended emotion per scene and kewpie invested. Even the cinematography was fantastic for some scenes. Where the movie went for a toss however was when the director of the movie decided to direct the movie. Good lord, there were soo many slow motion scenes in the movie, you could watch the movie in 4x speed and still not miss a thing. Unrealistic scenarios were the biggest problem. The director just did not know how to stitch scenes and make sense of a situation. This led to characters resorting to random actions and sequences just so that the story could make sense. You start wondering how a character is teleporting to various areas just for the convenience of the plot.

The antagonist had countless opportunities to kill the hero, but of course he wouldn't given the impenetrable plot armour of the hero. I could narrate each scene which anchored my interest, but that would be me telling the whole story... Would only recommend the movie to witness some great acting by Manoj, otherwise...

There have been multiple movies where I have wondered why Manoj B agreed to pick them up. He's an absolutely stellar performer and one of the best industry has ever seen.

When he makes the choice to be part of movies like this or Silence it really discredits his talent. For a man who worked in Pinjar, Veer Zara or The Family Man - this movie is an absolute joke. It's outdated and over the top. It's like a 90s Bollywood movie crossed with a crass movie from the South. And not in a good way.

Manoj B - if you ever read this. Please don't do yourself a disservice by signing up for this mediocre stuff. You are an asset to the otherwise sunk Indian movie industry.

Bhaiyya Ji staring Manoj Bajpayee is the weakest movie of him I have seen in recent years. No questions on his acting skills but poor editing,direction and execution has made the film weak. Without the background story of the character i.e Bhaiyya ji his fear seems exaggerated and over-hyped. During fight sequences also I felt some scenes are illogical which I won't expect from MB. Why Bhaiyya ji's younger brother showed as step brother is also not understandable? Real brother and mother would have made his pain more authentic. Also missed good background score and music in the film which can make it more powerful.
