Jo bole so nihaal is a movie full of Punjabi (Indian) culture! Though I must admit, Punjabi's aren't as dumbed down as shown in this movie (I myself am one :-)
A cop looking out for a bad-guy who's framed him, Sunny Deol (Nihaal Singh) goes all guns to get 'Romeo' the villain. In fact, he goes across the globe to the US, and does things 'his way' there!
The plot contains too many loopholes to worry about it, and the humour - though funny at times - is not well executed.
To be fair, if you like irrational action, then this movie is for you. There's loads of beating people up, god-like heroism, and a little excess of patriotism & religious fervor.
I'd suggest going out for a nice dinner date, rather than spending on this flick -- unless you know you have the appetite for it!

Sunny Deol tries comedy for the first time ever in Jo Bole So Nihaal, and he is successful at this, as he gives witty remarks and street talks the FBI (which he calls 'Fully Bewakoof Insan')! As you watch the movie, you will come to realize that Sunny's character, Havaldar Nihaal Singh, is the only smart character in the movie, so if you ever want to watch this film, do it for Sunny. I also like the 'No If! No But! Sirf Jat!' Sunny continues to be amazing in action, and now he adds comedy to his list. Although it is understandable why the movie became controversial, there was no intention of hurting anyone. Sunny was just being funny. The film also has its thrills and fun scenes, although the climax could have been better, but the boat chase in the Everglades was brilliant. If you want laughs, then just sit back and relax and enjoy!
I came upon this film, when an Indian friend of mine recommended it as an introduction into the world of Bollywood. I must say, I am not impressed. The sound effects and special effects are so amateurish that I thought I had undergone a time-warp into yesteryear. I know this is supposed to be a comedy, but the way the film was cut and directed was what made it so funny in my opinion. Even with all its flaws, there were some good moments, however. The American FBI team might have been shown as a caricature in the film, but the actors did a fine job with such poorly written material. The scene with the kid eating the ice cream was funny. The best scenes were the Brooklyn Bridge chase scene and the scene after-wards when the FBI commiserate over the female agent turning traitor. That scene had the only real moment in the film and the acting of Thomas Tevana and Gary Castro Churchwell was powerful. All in all it was a poorly constructed film with a few good scenes. I hope to see better Bollywood films in the future.
I had to sit through this movie because I paid over a 100 bucks for it. It's hard to believe that a movie can be made that has nothing going for it. Idiotic dialogues wrapped up in gaudy phoren locations. I believe this the first movie in which the audience actually audibly groaned at the jokes that it tried to 'imply'.
In addition to that, add two UGLY women who only got roles because they can "show off". I would never want to see anything that they had to show. BAD BAD acting, coupled with a story that is absolutely stupid, I feel stupid for having watched this movie. HELP! (sob) I can't even begin to count the flaws, there is just not anything interesting here. In a scene, two characters jump of a bridge into water, and later they are shown completely dry and the lady has her make-up intact. Plus, a character is not supposed to have a thumb, and in the final scenes, we plainly see the thumb front on. The FBI succumb to the trivial eccentricities of a village cop from India, ya right. And, what more...we have bird bombs blasting away an important building in New York, FBI plotting to kill the president of the USA, two bimbos, "religious sentiment", ah...the basic Bollywood mish-mash.
If you are going on a date and want to set the evening up nicely, go to this movie. She will be so bored out of her brains, she'll do anything to make life more interesting ;)! It's a no-brainer!

it had been a long time since i had a headache watching a movie but i presume we should torture ourselves once in a while with such pathetic movies to appreciate the well-made ones.... the movie is about a simple constable of Punjab,nihaal singh(sunny deol) who is too sweet and innocent to be believed. the villain is played by kamaal khan by the name of romeo who is an international hit-man who kills a priest after doing an act of terrorism(i thought the character was supposed to be smart).romeo comes to apna Punjab on a mission and when nihaal singh tries to arrest him(for not having a revolver license) he fools him and escapes crossing the border effortlessly(wow!!!romeo should be given full points for fooling the security of both sides of the border).nihaal is suspended on account of helping the terrorist.as nihaal singh is the only one who has seen romeo , his services are asked for by none other than the FBI but apna nihaal wants to take romeo back to India and with the help of a female(Indian) FBI agent who is more interested in shedding her clothes than doing her duty, manages to do that. the movie is a drag and the scenes where nihaal's mom keeps on falling down every time nihaal bumps into the female FBI agent is plainly stupid and unexplainable. at the end of the day the movie does'not make sense and the humor is anything but funny.sunny deol should take a break and reconsider how he wants to take his career ahead. kamaal khan is promising in certain scenes. the woman in the movie provide the required glamor and flesh. simply a very avoidable movie.
