Reviews
InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Roy Hart If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
indianature Dolly ki Doli got bad critic reviews which proves even more that the critics are not always in tune with what the audience enjoys.This is a delightful movie, slapstick, happy, cheerful and a lot of fun to watch.Sonam Kapoor has done a good job essaying the role of a con bride to the hilt. The story holds the interest and leaves the viewer with a happy cheery feeling.The parting shot reference to Salman Khan at the end is absolutely hilarious.
bobbysing Clearing the confusion over its inspired status first, yes the early half of the film (or the initial 20 minutes) are exactly similar to the Punjabi film RONDE SAARE VYAH PICHHON aka RSVP released in 2013. But since both the writers deny seeing each other's films and claim to have taken the idea from few real life instances featured in the daily newspapers, hence we are forced to consider this as possibly a rarest of rare exception of two unrelated minds writing and visualising exactly similar sequences in their individual films released at a gap of more than one year.Next keeping in mind its fairly novel plot of a 'Looteri Dulhan' and a whole con-family involved it the cunning business, DOLLY KI DOLI does have an interesting premise to offer. But after making a fine, enjoyable beginning, what the writer and director do with the film post intermission (different from RSVP) is really sad and awful, completely ruining its winning potential altogether. For instance it straight away begins with an abrupt scene introducing the lead pair chatting casually followed by an item song by the producer (Malaika) herself and then displays several big loopholes in the con games being played by the 'Looteri family' with two young boys. Still few enjoyable performances, funny local lingo and double meaning dialogues thankfully steal the limelight and one doesn't really care about the flaws in its initial 45- 50 minutes to be honest.However post intermission, the 100 minute film goes entirely off-track and starts moving in various weird directions involving betrayals, silly love angles, revenge and more. The writers come with such weird and forced ideas like the family fleeing fearing a police raid, but forgetting to take along their old age (fake) Dadi…….and then remembering about her while sitting in the train. Moreover here we have a young energetic inspector who is unable to find the con-girl but the other victim boy can find her so easily, reaching her new home too without any problem as such. Plus, I really couldn't understand what help did the film get from a lackluster cameo of Saif Ali Khan doing nothing.In other words, in its second hour DOLLY KI DOLI simply fails to encash on its fresh con-plot leading towards an illogical climax and only three people give you something to enjoy in its short duration namely, Rajkummar Rao (with his excellent Haryanvi accent), Varun Sharma (reminding you of his 'Choocha' act in FUKREY) and Archna Puran Singh (as a loud Punjabi mother looking for a better girl for her boy). Strangely Sonam Kapoor is simply there in the lead role just to smile or look good and both Pulkit Samrat and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub are not able to deliver the expected due to their badly written roles. Brijendar Kala, Rajesh Sharma and Ishtiaq are entertaining in their small cameos, whereas debutant director Abhishek Dogra really could have delivered a much better enjoyable con-comedy with such a cast ensemble. The cinematography and background score remain average and so does its soundtrack having all mediocre unimpressive tracks (except "Mera Naina") with sick lyrics such as "Aaj Phatte Tak Nachhna" (now I really don't know what it means!) and "Launda Jawaan Banega Yahan Mere Passion Mein"…….great indeed!'To conclude, as the film ends another song starts playing along the end- credits with the words,'Baba Ji Ka Thullu'. And one truly feels like having shown the signature sign while walking out of the theatre. In short, one might enjoy it partially while watching it (free of cost) during a channel telecast but sparing your precious time and money on a multiplex ticket is certainly not recommended.
Parveen Kumar The promotion of the movie was better than the actual movie.... the plot of the movie had no sense at all.... the script had no potential at all.... watching this movie is a waste of time and also money. Basically the storyline was the same throughout the movie and felt nothing but a drag....Promotion was carried out like if the movie had an awesome story with much potential to do great business in the cinema but as i can see after watching this, it will only be a one off movie. Moral of the story was stick to the things you can do better and that is all you can do .... for example if your a thief, you stick to that job that's the only thing your good at... therefore you cannot turn around your life and become a better person.. what on earth is she trying to portray... this movie is a total waste of time..
Jasrick Johal Dolly (sonam) is a pretty girl who has a brother Raju (zeeshan) whose job is to pick out prospective grooms. In reality, Raju is a fake brother and the plan is Dolly will make these grooms fall in love with her and on the first night, she would drug the groom and her entire gang will loot the house. In this process, Sonu (rajkummar rao) and Manjot (varun sharma) become victims. The task to apprehend Dolly is given to the tough cop Robin Singh (pulkit). Whether he is successful in catching her or not forms the rest.The director has come up with an entertaining storyline and while the presentation was average, the narrative was okay in parts. The dialogues were good. The script was predictable and the screenplay was neat. The background score was melodious and three songs were worth watching. Cinematography was the main strength to this film. Editing was required at few places. Costumes were well designed while the art department was colorful. Sonam Kapoor was her energetic and bubbly self and she did well. Rajkummar Rao was great, Varun Sharma was versatile, Pulkit Samrat made his presence felt. Zeeshan was entertaining, Rajesh Sharma was impressive, Malaika sizzles with her song, Manoj Joshi was moderate. Brijender Kala was good:Others didn't get much scope.From the looks of it, you get reminded of the Hollywood movie 'The Runaway Bride' but the script has been tweaked . The first half revolves around many light moments and there is some drama as well. The interval bang was interesting. The second half has few hiccups and lacks pace but there is the required melodrama. The twist in the end is good. Overall Dolly Ki Doli is a average story about a runway bride coning men for a living. Story was novel presentation not upto mark,was funny in spurts though. It is a one time watch, its time pass entertainment was hoping for more, its not long though so its doesn't bore. Watch with limited expectations2.5/5* or 5.5/10
