Badmaash Company - Wogma Readers Reviews
Badmaash Company
quick review:
It's everything that's fun about a conjob - the core idea, the wool-over-the-eyes, the joke at the victim's expense. Everyone gets their just desserts and surprisingly all ends well.

Contemporary since the protagonist is shown in grey shades? Hmmm...what about the lesson in morality? The honesty is the best policy potion that the film is seeped in?
As for what you call ethnic jokes, IMO, they are no more than lame & insensitive schoolboy humour. Ask someone from the north-east how they feel about these "Chinese" jokes.
@Bollyfan: Most jokes are at someone else's expense. I have (like most of us) been at the receiving end of my share of ethnic jokes. But it's possible to discern the malice from the banter. The jokes in BADMAASH COMPANY are exchanged between friends, just the way people in real life do...not to make someone feel bad but as a normal part of the bonding process. Of note, the movie also touches (albeit lightly) on how Chinese jokes could be hurtful to people from North-East and the perperator apologizes. Thank you for commenting.
Apologises and then continues later on. That's where the insensitivity comes out. Compare it with the sensitivity of a Shimit Amin, who also made a couple of "Chinky" jokes in Chak De India, but made up with a powerful comeback rather than a light touch.
And the malice comes forth in caricature that the Reebok executive is.
Moreover, the jokes weren't even funny. The last time I laughed at such jokes was when they used to be forwarded thru emails, a dozen years ago.
The movie's a good baby stem in the realm of crime related movies. However, if you have a DVD of Oceans 11 or 13, or even The Sting, keep this movie until it comes up on Moserbaer. :D
wow! what a movie! after long time such a nice thug movie and believe me its amazing. Shahid and Anushka rocks... very amazing ideas of cheating buyers. of course not at all close to reality but belive me a sure shot movie for shahid's hit list.
OK, this comment is not related to the movie (I am still waiting to see that - thinking of catching it in the cinema as I am in India for the summer).
A friend of mine has this blog where he posts quizzes which make you guess the lyrics of bollywood songs / movies by looking at pictures. I have found it to be quite interesting ... maybe there are more bollywood fans here that might be interested in it. Here's the link:

@Bollyfan. Going by your standards, I guess if you make a movie, will it really be as good as your critical standards. I have seen many critics like you (Khalid M) who have made the worst movies I have ever seen!! Walk the talk, son!!
@Real BollyFan Why is it that if someone criticizes something in India, people like you come up with things like 'Walk the Talk'? I don't think someone needs to be a good moviemaker to be able to be able to comment positively/negatively on movie.
bakwaass movie shahid plzz stop showing off and plzzzzzz learn some acting
abe shahid ab toh acting seekh lee
bloody idiot
this movie is time waste $ paise waste
Hi Meetu
Please correct the Runtime of Badmaash Company - You have listed it as 2 Minutes!!!
@real bollyfan I agree with haulerz99 here. If you don't like a film, do you think you'll be able to make a better film?
@Ali Naveed Done! Thanks a ton for pointing it out!
It's just a very ordinary timepass movie targeted to 18-24 yrs. group.
Time pass movie..typical predictable ending but the good thing is it keeps going at a good pace and keeps entertained with the chalu schemes that the hero puts in action...hehe.
@Article directory and @Amit and that is very proudly the aim of the makers - timepass!
@Amit didn't know you visit wogma! A pleasant surprise!
I think its worth to watch movie.Rating is 3.5
it's a superb movies with most fanatical ideas ever familiar..regardless of it's reality ..it's whole plot is up to mark and to the point..acting,dialogues,script..woo mind blowing...especially that one.."bade se bada....idea se bada hota hai.." ...GR8
good movie
I like the idea of the movie but the movie starting was't that much impressive
its nice movie especially that one.."bade se bada....idea se bada hota hai
