Intro:
Golmaal: fun unlimited (the 1st one of the triology) was a film which gave Non-sense humor an altogether new meaning. Slapstick was back with a bang and Rohit shetty was an instant hit with his so-called Action-comedy genre. Golmaal Returns (2nd one) was expected to be a bigger & better…But it was pale & boring at times & was funny & rib-tickling in parts. So it failed to generate the kind of laughs it did for the first time in mid-2006.
Now Marketed as the Diwali Dhamaka of 2010 I am sorry to say Shetty fails miserably for the first time. It’s a comedy which evokes inevitable & forced laughs.
Story: It’s a story about Two gangs residing in Goa who always keep on clashing with their Similar business idea & other regular scuffles. Devgn & talpade are joined by the local tomboy & the supposed girlfriend of Devgn played by Kareena. This set is parented by Ratna pathak shah & the other group which has Warsi, tusshaar Kapoor & Kunal Khemu has Mithun chakraborthy as its. dad.
Problem arises when Shah & Chakraborthy (who have a past love story) come face-to-face & realize that they have a chance this time around as Kareena sets them up For marriage.
The assumed fun starts here when both the gangs are thrown under a single roof which invites a lot of troubles as they try to out-wit each other rather than making it work.
Different ways to pin the other down result in huge fights. What was supposed to be funny comes out as lame & boring. Testing your patience is what G3 does once you are in their. There are some genuinely funny moments Like the one where both set of guys are sitting across a sofa & mimicking what they could possibly shove up each others…well.. Backsides & the other party shows the resultant pain which occurs if they are subjected to cactuses, flower-pots, umbrellas & other such stuff going up their you-know-what.
Or the other where Mithun takes a digg at his own movies & delivers illogically written dialogues…Trust me! it sounds great & funny. Slow motions Bash ups by ajay Devgn bore you as it is not funny.
Performances: Wasooli bhai is back as well & Mukesh tiwari has almost perfected the art of playing a golden-hearted, funny DON who falls to the Casts different schemes.
Johnny lever assisted with Vrajesh hirjee & Sanjay Mishra Overdoes his act of a Don who has a Short term memory loss. Vrajesh hirjee fails to tickle the funny bone as he did in the previous editions of the franchisee. Sanjay Mishra has got clever punches with the spellings which do make him a bit bearable. Devgn, Kareena, talpade Are good but there is nothing much you can do about an unfortunately a bad written character. Leave Tushar though as he comes back as the mute Lucky who needs to be tanslated. The translator this time is Kunal khemu who doesn’t have much to do. Warsi is good as well but suffers the same fate as Devgn & talpade.

Mithun on the other hand Does justice to his character. Willingly making fun oh his own movies & the famous Disco-dancer Act. He still can dance.
Whats hot: Well accept the Superlative mute Chaplin style scene from the guys & few funny moments here and there, & tushhar kapoor’s Mute act….nothing really is hot. Opps did I forget Kareena?
Whats Not: Everything. Jokes stretched too much to enjoy, A continuous Gag about Devgn breaking any finger in his face. In golmaal 1 the race sequence which had loads of cars being blown it had a hint of humor with Sharman Joshi playing “Dicky”…this time around it only looks like Shetty was compelled to blast 500 cars & 100 odd motor boats.
Verdict: Watch only if you have nothing better to do. A few tips
Golmaal fans: Don’t watch it. I don’t want you to dislike anything from the Golmaal franchisee.
Non-fans: Please don’t watch. The other two are better go catch a DVD at the local store & enjoy.
A tip for the Director. Mr. Rohit shetty, Indian television is airing at least 5 different comedy shows & you were a judge on on of them. You know the standards of comedy are rising with every gag you contestant perform their. The viewer has become more intelligent & sharp. Try New jokes. Stale jokes Stink. :P
Movie rating: 2/5
