Proud of kunal khemu that he finally did something big with his comic talent. Movie is good.
Some jokes were very very good, they landed beautifully and made me laugh loudly. Many other ones made me smile.
Acting wise for me best was obviosly munna bhaya first then pratik gandhi and then tiwari ji. Nora was also nice. Both villains were good and comedic.
Production was good, and story takes ample time to settle, no rush on that front.
Goa was also good though nothing much happened outside. Not funny song was good.
Overall it is a good bollywood comedy movie after a long time. Please watch and apprecisate it. We want more from khemu now.

Kunal Khemu directorial debut is outstanding. This film made my day specially the cast involve in it is so damn good. Directing the 1st film is not an easy job and then to if it's a comedy genre but Kunal Khemu deserves all applause for a fun and super direction done by him.
Now talking about the storyline simple friend group goa trip story with best situational comedy perform by the actors specially Pratik, Divyendu & Avinash just nailed their performance throughout the film.
Chemistry between these 3 is fun to watch and kinda hooked you up in the film. Yes there is flaws in the script because screenplay could've been little tighter and little bit of pacing issues but comedy will entertain you a lot specially in the 1st half is too good.
Cinematography is good specially Goa location is fun to watch. Supporting cast are average because isn't much to do in the film except for the 3 leads.
Dialogues in the comedy scenes is good and supports the scenes well yet songs are unnecessary in the film.
Overall A good time pass film with enjoyable comedy and good performance by the lead cast....

People born in the late 1990s, particularly those who grew up watching comedies from the 2000s, may experience nostalgia for their younger years.
Credit goes to none other than Mr. Kemmu, the writer-director, for reinvigorating "comedy of errors" genre, which had been lacking its trademark in recent years.
"Madgaon Express" might not have reached its peak but it offered enough quirk and entertainment for its viewers.
The characters were eccentric, the punchlines hit the mark, and most importantly, the actors appeared to be enjoying themselves, especially, Pratik Gandhi in his 'Rowdy' persona, so ridiculous yet so much fun.

Bulletpoint review:
- This comedy of errors by writer-director Kunal Khemu is good fun while it lasts. His 2-minute cameo is fun too.
- Pratik Gandhi is the clear standout here. The man holds immense potential as a performer. Divyendu is good when he sticks to comedy (which is about 80% of his screentime). Avinash Tiwary is serviceable.
- Seeing Nora Fatehi in a non-item-dancer capacity is a pleasant surprise.
- The songs are all of the "loo break" variety.
- The antagonists (played by Upendra Limaye & Chhaya Kadam) are hilariously solid. The actors contribute more than what the screenplay has for them.
- Did NOT enjoy the whole "dress up as women" angle for the leads to infiltrate the Kombdi hideout.
- Most of the situational humour (keeping the previous point aside) and the dudes' bromistry work.
I mean it when I say this. Its"A Rib-Tickling Ride!"Madgaon Express" is a rib-tickling ride filled with laughter and entertainment. Kunal Khemu's directorial debut is a breath of fresh air in the comedy genre, offering a delightful mix of humor and heartwarming moments. This film is a perfect blend of quirky characters, witty dialogues, and hilarious situations that will leave you in splits. Kunal Khemu's direction is commendable, making this journey an unforgettable one for the audience. The ensemble cast delivers stellar performances, making this film a must-watch for comedy lovers. In the present sea of thrillers , murder mysteries and voyeuristic drama - the film feels like a breadth of fresh air. After watching this you will realize that this is the kind of movie we were waiting for since very long.
