Bunty aur Babli goes in the 'good but not great' category. You can probably watch it once and even get entertained but thats about it. First, the three good things about this movie are : Abhishek Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan :D. Jokes apart, this movie is a perfect example of a great cast holding up a weak storyline. It starts of well with the one hummable song of the entire movie and pretty shots of North India. It picks up tempo as 'Bunty' and 'Babli' meet and embark on their modus operandi, but quickly loses out on account of a string of forgettable songs and sloppy editing. Rani's vivacious attitude, her colorful Kurtis, the plan to lease out the Taj Mahal, and the encounters between Amitabh and Abhishek, Rani's Punjabi accent and Amitabh Bachchan's dialog delivery are great. The songs, the 'item' number, the occasional sentimental scene between Rani and Abhishek are awful. Overall, a 6/10. The movie had the potential to be something great but I think the director lacks the insight and experience to achieve it.
