Partner - Movie Review


Chi Chi is BACK!!! After a long long, really long time Govinda is back with his amazing Comic Timing and awesome dance moves. After I saw the movie I was thinking what took Govinda so long to return to his familiar territory. Total time pass, masala flick where you dont have to trouble your brain cells. Just go and enjoy. I feel he was not getting the right films when he changed his profession from films to politics. And even when he made a comeback with Bhagambhag, he wasn't given the right script and the right role. He was decent in Salaam e Ishq but Partner is a kind of movie which is his turf. These movies made him Comedy King. And Chi Chi why do you have to try serious and emotional acting when we love you the way you are. He is termed as the hero of the Classes. I dont Agree. He has one of the best comic timings in the business and even at this age and weight, he rocks you with his dance moves. He even dances on Sarkai lo khatiya which is my favourite scene in the movie.


Partner, our own version of Hitch, gives Govinda what he needed the most at this time. A movie which gives him lot of scope to do comedy, dance and work with David again. When you are going to a David Dhavan movie, you dont pay much attention to the story line. Because there is none. There is no logic. Some people hate that kind of stuff. But in these times of stress and tensions if something makes me laugh for two and half hours and makes me forget my worries then there is nothing better than that.


Ohh Partner also has Salman. But half of the time he hams. He is fine in the song and dance stuff. But he cant do comedy as naturally as our chi chi.


Parter is a Govinda movie all the way. He is great in almost every frame he is in. And his dance moves!!! Ohh Boy....My dream dance sequence now has Hrithik and Govinda dancing in a song.


The music is Good. The numbers are foot tapping. My favourite song is Soni de nakhre as we see Govinda in full form in that song. The title song and Dupatta are next. Rest of the songs are also not bad.


Ohh yeah there is a Chhota don in the movie. Rajpal Yadav. I felt he was kinda wasted. There was much more scope in his role. And the kid in the movie was irritating.


Lara and Katrina are for eyecandy. That's it.


If you have like Govinda's movies such as Shola aur Shabnam, Aankhen, Coolie no. 1, Haseena maan jaegi, etc. then Dont Miss This One.

David Dhawan needs to pack up man. There is a difference between comedy & cheap/vulgar comedy. Certain scenes are simply boring & predictive.

How can somebody become a love guru just by staying with 5 or 6 sisters. Too much of high volume dialogs by Govinda. It would be better if child actors are not chosen for these kind of films. Salman looks damn handsome. 2 songs are good & choreographed well. Rajpal Yadav could've been used better. His track never mingled with the movie. I HEARD IT WAS COPIED FROM HITCH

Verdict: WASTE OF TIME & MONEY FOR A MEANINGLESS CHEAP COMEDY.
