Bade Miyan Chote Miyan

One of the best "Amitabh comeback" movies I liked. This was the phase when Govinda was going strong with Dhawan. The songs were awesome and totally as we call it "masti" type. An evergreen entertainer with the likes of the multifaceted Anupam Kher chipping in. The story line has a lot of hilarious twists and turns as is known for David Dhawan's potboilers. With a timely appearance by Mrs.Madhuri "Nene" Dixit, it was a total riot towards the end. It was great to see Amit perform with such force and humor after a long exile. Although some may consider it a typical "Bollywood Masala" movie, I would watch it any day. I am giving it an easy 8 out of 10 just for being pure Bollywood.

Bachchan's films post 1997 were flopping like no day this is his only hit those days

The film was a remake of BAD BOYS(first half)

It's a David Dhawan comedy so there are lot of funny situations but the movie is a cool timepass entertainer

The first half is full of fun with romance too

The second half is more on the robbers lookalikes of Bachchan and Govinda and the film gets more funny but sometimes sort of crude too considering it being made by DD

Climax is funny too but too overdone

Direction by DD is good Music is okay

Amongst actors Amitabh looks aged and wrinkled but does his part very well and pairs off well with Govinda and in the other role he does a great job as the Bihari robber Govinda suits such roles to the T and is a pleasure in both roles Amongst rest Ramya and Raveena are the heroines Anupam Kher is as usual Paresh Rawal is alright Sharat Saxena is okay

The first 2 hours are okay, but then it just turns to garbage, but fun garbage nonetheless. The songs in this movie are great. I understand that the first two hours of the movie was supposed to be a take on the movie Bad Boys, but after the bad boys story line is over the movie just goes into a downward spiral. I give it a 5 out of 10.

I strongly believe remakes (no dubs) are original enough to be given independent rating. Hence I would benchmark BMCM(Bade Miyaan CHote Miyaan) with itself.

Give your brains, stressed minds some rest and laugh your heart out watching this fun riot. Govinda's funny accent, coupled with Amitabh's acting, Satish Kaushik's on-liners this movie has everything that entertainment can define.

Agreed that the actresses in this movie were dampeners, but their roles were not. The movie has terrific one liners, comical setup, exciting and funny finish. Songs are colorful and funny too. Best one for me being "Makhna..." with Madhuri.

It is surely one of those movies which you can pick up when you are not sure what to watch. Go for it folks!

Full of fun - perfect comedy - great relief from the crappy 'love' movies - Amitabh & Govinda are great!!!
