REVIEW: Jimmy is funny

It's Mimoh's show reel; the entire 70s packed in one film

And then, of course, a half dead Jimmy even after being beaten almost to death gets up and fights Zulfi to get his girlfriend back. Also a much beaten Rahul Dev kills Syed to avenge his sister's murder. And they start dancing again. Since that is one thing Mimoh does extremely well and he does not need to speak while dancing.

So that's Jimmy. Mimoh, Mimoh and more Mimoh. And a little bit of Vivana the actress who by the way can give the Aarti Chhabrias of the world a run for their money. She is not negligible at all. Also, we should not forget Zulfi Syed – the man who should stick to keeping his mouth shut.

Verdict: Go for this movie once at a cheap theatre or rent a CD (not a DVD since it'll cost more) and watch it once to have a good laugh with friends. It's the entire '70s packed in one film. You can relive the moments in just two hours.

Rating: 2/5 (Mimoh tried hard and well, if not fun the movie was funny at least. We laughed our guts out in every frame.)

The review is quite funny, but i do agree with vishal. It is an unwritten ethical code that you do not reveal the ending of a movie in a review. Even on sites like imdb with contributory reviewing, reviewers are required to flag reviews that contain spoilers. I am not saying that we should always conform to all rules, but however bad a film is, you should at least be fair enough to the director to not reveal his ending to the public. It's really in poor taste and spoils an otherwise good review.

The movie could be trash, but the review is excellent. Bollywood unfailingly gives crap movies (99%) and reviews are hardly better by the star reviewers. A sensible review after a long time.

Lump of lard! Okay so at times the comments are but too harsh but the review is damn funny, perhaps more entertaining than the film, and dud vishal, do we really care about the suspense of such films? And even if we do know, would this really help you make up your mind about watching the film?

however, wish the reviewer went a little easy on that boy....
