GOOD BOY
BAD BOY bears an uncanny resemblance to RAM AUR SHYAM, since
GOOD BOY BAD BOY is also about the sharif [Tusshar] and the
not-so-sharif [Emraan] and how the confusion of names brings
the best out of the two in the end.
Unfortunately,
this good idea is highly under-nourished, which results in a
fare that's pointless, emotionless, dramaless, humorless and
impactless. Honestly, the concept had tremendous scope to
entertain since the film is set in a college campus. But the
screenplay is so dull and dreary that barring a few laughs
in a scene or two, you actually leave with a frown on your
face.
It's
indeed surprising that someone as talented as Ashwini
Choudhary, who helmed the sensitive DHOOP, is at the helm of
affairs here. To cut a long story short, GOOD BOY BAD BOY
has nothing worth recalling!
Emraan
has a flair for comedy and that shows on the screen. He is
quite likable. Tusshar is pleasant, but how one wishes the
writer would've offered him better scenes. Isha Sharvani
wears a set of two expressions all through. Tanushree Dutta
doesn't work. Also, why is her makeup so dark? Paresh Rawal
is a letdown. Kabir Sadanand is expressive. Sushmita
Mukherjee is wasted.
On the
whole, GOOD BOY BAD BOY disappoints big time. |
