The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

Its Priyan movie dude and nothing short of a full time-pass entertainer.Akshay Kumar:: Wherever humanly possible Akki delivers more than 100%. In layman terms, he overacts. If you ignore, with the assumption of signature style, then he is full-two.Govinda:: Makes his presence felt and surprisingly get adequate screen time too, considering the fact he is pitted against Priyan favourites namely "editing notorious" Akki and "cat-o-nine lives" Paresh Rawal. And Sunil Shetty would have been a bad choice definitely.Bunty and Babla? Any references to Bunti & Babli? Sorry just thinking aloud! Lara Dutta:: Doesn't leave any impact, hence its safe to say that she was miscast. And her suicidal tendencies part was not fleshed out adequately. In fact Tanushree Dutta in the cameo was far more convincing.Paresh Rawal:: If you don't expect a reprise of Hera Pheri, he is spot on in its own right. Any deficiencies... blame the writing department.Jackie Shroff:: Its good to see a Priyan's old timer this time around and being London MetPolice Chief is nothing short of creative liberties.Other regulars just chip in with special mention to Rajpal Yadav (spot on!), Sharat Saxena, Manoj Joshi (howls again!) and Asrani.Sorry I forgot about you Arbaaz. Bhagam Bhaag is a remake of Malayalam movie which was sequel to Hera Pheri. As usual Priyan and his team customised the recipe to suit the palette. Needless to say, moving the story-base to London, capturing the English summer and yet not losing sight of the plot has translated into a decent show. And for those who are crying foul, never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was legal... then.

This film was a hit, it's supposed to be a no brain popcorn entertainer but there are far to many times that this film fails to do what it set out to achieve. The problem lies within it's writing, direction, and to a lesser extent - it's acting. But there are a few positives, there are certain scenes that may induce a chuckle but not a laugh and there are also moments where the actors shine. Unfortunately, the script never allows for the film to reach it's full potential.Akshay Kumar heads the ensemble, he works competently with what the script and the direction have given him. But he by no means shines, he is the Akshay that we have seen before. He is suited for physical comedy but has not been able to harness the magic that could possibly help elevate him in the eyes of others. There are certain scenes he manages to reach beyond the script and entertain but ultimately the is dragged down by poor direction and a poor script. Govinda, however, manages to work well with what he has and dare I say it, manages to outshine the rest of the cast which includes Jackie Shroff, Lara Dutta, Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadev and Shakti Kapoor. The problem with the acting is there is almost no direction given to the actors, it's almost as if Priyadarshan has given free reign to them but they are not capable of handling that freedom.The script is ludicrous and has no rhyme or reason to it. Even if the film functions as a no brainer popcorn flick, there still has to be an underlying aspect to the story for it to function properly. The film contains shades of noir but is to hollow to be regarded as noir and instead we get a mystery that is never fully explored and a comedy that doesn't live up to it's potential. Granted, I had low expectations to begin with - and this film did not even live up to that, barring a few amusing scenes (which included the film's climax), but not once did I laugh. Instead I groaned, moaned, and continued to watch because I'm the type of person who sits through a film all the way through.The music is horrendous and like the film - has potential but does not live up to expectations or go beyond anything sub par.The direction is horrible and unrestrained, even for a comedy there needs to be restrained in the direction - one singular vision that can help bring everything together, but Priyadarshan does not live up to the hype that once surrounded his name and because of his direction, he manages to bring the entire film down with his fledging career.5.5/10: The film has it's moments but in capable hands it could have used several re-writes as well as another director for it to succeed.

Like the name all the characters in the movie keep running till the movie ends. I wonder how come the audience sticked to their seat till the end. I can not say this is the best Govinda movie I have seen till date as long as there are movies like Hatya & .... I don't remember anymore.This is a much hyped comeback movie of Govinda. But will it be a real comeback for him or he will have to come back again and again till one more decade only time will tell.Critically speaking, the movie is horrible. But the movie has been a hit among masses. On an average a nice attempt by Priyadarshan to revive a sinking career of Govinda.

Think of it. Comedy King GOVINDA, Comedy Champ Paresh Rawal & Comedy Star Akshay Kumar. Then Priyadarshan is the Director. What else can you look for, what better combination can you make! Of course expectations have to be high, higher, highest.Bhagam Bhag is a nice movie with lots of its own moments of laughter, some very funny dialogues, nice scenes and beautiful song & music. But is that just enough when we have the Champions around. Don't we expect more, a BLAST may be? Its story of Champak Chaturved (Paresh Rawal) who has a theatre group in India and he performs shows all over the country. Bunty (Akshay Kumar) and Babla (Govinda) are actors in the group who are very naughty natured guys who never miss any chance to flirt with girls, even the girls in the group. They Go to London for a series of show but there heroine runs away. They discover a girl Munni (Lara Dutta), who suffers from amnesia to act in their drama and just as Bunty and Munni fall in love, her memory returns and it brings chaos into their lives, including a murdered husband! A series of funny event start which lead to an unexpected climax. Initially it seems Arbaaz & then the Commissioner (Jackie Shroff) who is behind all the mystery which further leads to strange ending.So its an OK movie with OK storyline & concept. Of course all of these are not major elements of a Priyadarshan movie. The major element is laughter, which doesn't seem as strong and powerful here. Akshay, Paresh & of course Govinda rock & roll. It's a nice come back for Govinda but again it could have been better. Same with the whole movie.Priyam Sir, we expected more, a lot may be...
