It's a lazy afternoon and you have nothing to do. There's always a movie you can pick up and watch even though you have seen it over 10 times. Golmaal is one of them. Is there a plot? No. Is there a life-lesson? Hell no! What Golmaal actually offers is a story of 4 good for nothing pranksters who end up conning their way into the mansion of a blind couple. What crazy events occur next? That's Golmaal.
Gopal, Madhav, Lakshman and Lucky are four useless youngsters who do nothing but eat, drink and chill. Due to their unpaid loan to Vasulli bhai, they are on the run. They end up at the mansion of a blind couple who think their grandson has shown up from America. Then starts, Golmaal.
The story really does not offer much. However, I feel that just maybe the strength of the movie. It is a film that has its comical moments do the talking more than anything else.
There are some classic comedy scenes in the movie. The opening scene defines what the rest of the movie will be. Not to forget other scenes such as when the boys enter the house and have their first meeting with Paresh Rawal.
Not to forget when the principle enters Sharman's room. Arshad and Sharman trying to get at Ajay is hilarious.
The funniest scenes have to be the valentines day scene when the boys all gift something to Rimi and the Black parody. Just hilarious! Rohit Shetty doesn't have to depend on his directing much. It's the writing that's the strongest point. By writing, I mean the dialogue. The lines are rib tickling.
The music is a pleasant surprise. Reh ja reh ja is my favorite. The title song is amusing. Kyun aage aage is a treat to watch and a master stroke.
Rohit Shetty's direction is first rate. He handles all the scenes with ease.
Golmaal is full of talented actors. All the actors perform to an equal level of competency. Ajay Devgan is a revelation in this one. His comedy is subtle yet extremely funny. Arshad Warsi is a scene stealer, as always. Sharman joshi gives a very good act. Tusharr Kapoor is first rate and he doesn't even speak a word in the film. Rimi Sen does well Paresh Rawal is as always, perfect. Manoj Joshi is brilliant. Ditto for Sanjay Mishra and Mukesh Tiwari.
Overall - A film you can watch anytime, anywhere. Strongly recommended!

A Musst Watch Comedy
Thank You Sharman Joshi
Rohti Shetty after action films made a copy GOLMAAL
The film is typical type of comedy we have seen before
The start is quite funny and then when they reach Paresh's house it gets funnier and the film keeps you entertained at least for once
The film is loose though and gets boring and the scenes get repetitive towards the 2nd half and the pr-climax flashback though riveting is too long and the climax is bad
The film also has spoofs on NEAL N NIKKI which is good
The comedy isn't too laugh riot type throughout and makes you laugh only in parts The comedy is trite too often too and the Manoj Joshi parts are too loud If you are a Goan you will see how they have manipulated the locations Like the college shown is actually Old GMC building and then they go for a ride on a bike and show us they reach a different location in the first initial scenes and reach the same place
Rohit Shetty does an okay job Music is good Camera-work is fab, Goa looks fabulous
Ajay Devgan suits for such goon type roles and it comes easy to him but when he attempts to be funny in a slapstick manner he looks uncomfortable Even age is showing Arshad Warsi is good too Sharman is the life of the film, He is superb Watch him in the scene wherein Paresh catches him and Ajay cooks an alibi and Sharman's expressions makes you catch all attention on him without saying one dialog Sharman is natural to the core Tusshar is funny but his slapstick gets irritating at times Rimii Sen is as usual Paresh Rawal is good in his part Sushmita irritates Manoj Joshi gets to the nerves with his shouting The rest are okay
Super comedy film
This is a super comedy film. Acting is also superb and storyline of this comedy film is just amazing.
