During the initial 30-35 minutes (until the title card appeared), I was actually enjoying the ride.
The action sequences were engaging, the grandeur of the production was impressive, and most importantly, I found myself quite entertained by the friendly banter between Akshay and Tiger.
However, following this promising start, the quality of the film took a sharp decline shortly thereafter.
The writing, action sequences, and performances all suffered a noticeable drop in quality. The screenplay became sloppy and muddled, the dialogues became quite generic and cheesy.
For me however, the biggest surprise was to witness the sheer inefficiency of the action pieces. Inspite of their scale and intent, they failed to make a lasting impact on me.
For a movie that was specifically marketed as an action entertainer, it is disappointing to say the least.
P. S. I liked Prithvi in here, he did good, his commitment was more visible compared to others.

I don't want to comment on story but after watching this I only have one question is villain's not paying for the bullets bill or they are not allowed to fire or they are new joiners . Are they joined for on the job training . If somebody knows the director can you please ask this question and say them to please give us a clarification on this question or pls refund my ticket price .
Sorry for this but is tiger getting bragging in movie rather than payment or they are trying to give some more content for insta reels and also what a costume design in they first action scene after watching that costume i think that was designed by urfi's rookies or i think I am getting outdated in fashion.
Love u Akshay sir.

Dude, I was so hyped for "Bade Miyan Chote Miyan." Like, seriously, a desi buddy-cop flick with Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff? Sign. Me. Up. But let me tell you, this movie left me feeling more disappointed than after finding out the pizza place was closed.
Director Zafar seems stuck on repeat. Instead of something fresh, we get reheated Bollywood clichés. The only surprising thing was the pre-interval helicopter stunt, and even that felt more like a magic trick than anything mind-blowing. The rest of the action scenes? Total snoozefest. Shaky camerawork made it impossible to see the fight choreography, and the whole thing felt rushed and forgettable.
Don't get me wrong, I love Kumar and Shroff. They're both awesome actors. But the script did them a dirty trick. Their banter felt forced, and their characters had zero depth. They never clicked as a team, which left me wondering why they were even paired up. Even the villain, played with some energy by Prithviraj Sukumaran, couldn't save this flick from being a total meh.
The jokes were stale, like week-old reheated puns that wouldn't even make my dad laugh (and trust me, that's a low bar). The plot itself was a narrative wasteland, with no real stakes or emotional connection. Zafar's previous films at least had a touch of heart or social commentary, but "Bade Miyan Chote Miyan" felt completely hollow.
Adding to the disappointment was Alaya F's performance as Pam. Her acting felt one-note and forgettable. It makes you wonder if a more experienced actress could have brought more life to the role and maybe even lifted up the whole movie.
Honestly, skip this one. Bollywood has tons of fantastic comedies and action flicks. Don't waste your time on this forgettable mess with recycled jokes, generic action, and zero originality. Do yourself a favor and find something else to watch. You deserve way better.

This film is literally a disgrace to the og Bade miyan chote miyan. They promoted this pathetic vfx film by real action. One general audience can also observe the pathetic vfx. And gosh the dialogue delivery is so cringe. Didn't have any expectations from tiger but what happened to Akshay kumar? This 90s popular star is failing again and again. It is high time he must take a break. His look doesn't fit the character. At this time only some mediocre action sequence can't make a film hit. There is chance of this film to get a good box office run. It can't even reach its budget of 350crs. Only Prithviraj looks promising. Overall this film is total disappointing and not worthy for a theatre watch!
I was really hoping for this movie to be good based on the trailer. A great trailer, well cut, with well done sequences and a bit of comedy with loads of action. But when you watch the movie, the trailer turns out to be fools gold. Supposedly cool one liners are unimpressive and badly delivered by Tiger. For AK, it now seems like a 9-5 job to churn out as many movies as he can. He looks uninterested and has given a clumsy performance.
The only right casting in this action movie is Prithviraj. He tried to hold it together on the behalf of everyone throughout the movie. The story is illogical and the mindless action tries to cover up the bad performances by the leading ladies of the movie. It looked like their faces were stunned before starting the shoot everyday. Action in the movie lacks conviction and a fairy tale plot is the undoing of the movie. The second star in the rating is for Prithviraj.
