Reviews

Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
silvan-desouza Priyadarshan's name was synomonous with dramatic films like Gardish, Virasat and then he turned a new leaf with Hera Pheri and kept doing comedies, most remakes of his Malyalam hits. This film is a remake of an English comedy Boeing Boeing Akshay was mostly criticised as an actor in 90s and he was pathetic in comedy in Mr & Mrs Khiladi and some more films, In Hera Pheri he was quite good but with Khakee suddenly his comic bone started getting noticed, after that Mujhse Shaadi Karoge where he stole the show, Garam Masala was his first solo comedy role though he shared screen space with John too. The film however has no main plot, no logic, no sense yet it's hilarious in many places, though at times it resorts to complete nonsense just to bring laughs like Akshay-John rivalry which suddenly is forgotten in second half. The film starts off on an ordinary note but some scenes are funny like John's promotion, Akshay and John's scene in the hotel and later on some scenes in the house though one does question, How come all the girls cant even hear sounds?But that is like asking too much from such a film.There are some scenes which are really funny like how Akshay hides from all three girlfriends and till the end it keeps you laughing though it does drag at places, there is no proper continuity too some things happen too sudden too and look contrived, The preclimax is hilarious but the ending is abrupt.Direction by Priyadarshan is not at his best but good in several portionsMusic by Pritam is good but the songs many times do seem forced, Dil Samdundar is good but wrongly placed, while Kiss Me Baby is good, it was added in between later after the success of the film, Falak Dekhun is a superb romantic number by Sonu Nigam, Ada is goodAkshay Kumar's deadpan humour, his expressions, his dialogue delivery are simply spot on, he carries off most ridiculous situations with flair, However at times for some reason he laughs out loud but yet this is one of his best perf John Abraham tries hard to fit in the comic set up, this was his first comic role but he doesn't seem fit, he struggles a lot in his delivery Paresh Rawal is really superb with his deadpan act, sadly later in his career he became loud and theatrical and repetitive, but here he is simply amazing. Rajpal Yadav is not given too much importance, he is funny at times Manoj Joshi is good, Asrani is okay Amongst girls, Daisy, Neetu Chandra and Nargis are okay for their debuts, Only Neetu was seen or heard later rest vanished Neetu too could hardly make a mark Rimii Sen has a small role she is as usual
Dream_Woman Now i really liked this movie, it was so funny.Both Akshay Kumar and John Abraham are brilliant actors, i think after watching this film they should do lots more films together in the future.Akshay Kumar gets himself into a bit of trouble by dating 3 women at the same time, but the way he handles in when one comes out of the door and then the other one was just so funny to watch, he acted really well int his film and i hope that he makes more great comedy's like this one in the future, John Abraham plays his best friend, he plays his role really well and he is so underrated i am glad that some of his amazing work has got noticed but he is a really Good actor. i just love John, Neha Dhupia has a small role in this film and plays it well.The muse is really good i really recommend this movie to everyone.
gleejoseph One of the more sensible comedies to hit the Hindi film screens. A remake of Priyadarshans 80s Malayalam hit Boeing Boeing, which in turn was a remake of the 60s Hollywoon hit of the same name, Garam Masala elevates the standard of comedies in Hindi Cinema.Akshay Kumar has once again proved his is one of the best super stars of Hindi cinema who can do comedy. He has combined well with the new hunk John Abraham. However John still remains in Akshays shadows and fails to rise to the occasion.The new gals are cute and do complete justice to their roles.A must watch comedy. Leave your brains away and laugh for 2 hrs!!!! After all laughter is the best medicine ! Ask Priyadarshan and Akshay Kumar !!!!!
khiladi2099 this move was friggin hilarious!!! funniest I've seen in a while, akshay and john kick ass as always, and the chicks are hot too. the story is awesome, lots of great jokes, and whoever reviewed this before me is an idiot. to him i say that u are not of Indian background so u wouldn't understand the humor u moron. don't rate movies u don't understand. what did u watch, the subtitle version where majority of jokes are lost in translation? thats what i thought jackass. akshay kumar is the best actor ever and proves once again his versatility, he can do not only action but comedy as well, and is excellent at it. john has proved himself as well, this is his first comedy role and he was also excellent at it.
