November 9, 2010 (Sampurn Wire):The 'Golmaal' tag really seems to be working wonders this time too. The newly released Golmaal 3 is one big laugh riot, albeit with a pinch of salt!
The movie is entirely based in the lush surroundings of Goa, with the beaches serving as an eye candy with its colorful surroundings.
The movie consists of a bunch of characters, all with a different character trait and yet with a strong sense of individuality thereby distinguishing one character from the other with aplomb.
The most hilarious scenes have been shot with quite a lot of enthusiasm, but there are certain expletives which could have been avoided for a cleaner comedy or so it seems to the common man.
However, that is not to say that this is not a laugh riot, but then you cant have everything served on a platter in one single film!
In the film, Kareena Kapoor as Daboo, Shreyas Talpade as Laxman and Ajay Devgn as Gopal gives a very convincing and distinctive performance.
Even Tusshar Kapoor as a almost dumb character Lucky is something quite different than what he portrayed in the other franchisees. Kunal Khemu, Arshad Warsi as Madhav and Mithun Chakraborty as Pritam have also given ample entertainment in the form of their dialogues and funny expressions. Ratna Pathak Shah as Geeta, with her almost pleasant stance and lovable character is quite convincing as Mithundas love interest in the retro style.
Kareena Kapoor as the tom boy Daboo has pulled off her role quite well and is ample eye candy in the midst of the wild all-male gang, that is seen hanging around the fringes of the flick almost throughout the running time.
The film is something of a laugh riot with a bunch of grown up kids and if one is looking for one real light popcorn flick with no strings attached, this movie is a good time pass!
