When I was in school I watched it on TV. I remember that how we were excited about the action movies .Sunil shetty was in double roll. It was quit funny we enjoy this movie alot.
The film is the same old formula of twin brothers separated at birth because the villains wreak havoc in their father’s life. One brother grows up to be a cop while the other becomes a ordinary man who has just been released from prison. There are several well handled scenes like both the Sunil’s confronting each other, the clumsy Sunil getting beaten up by some bad guy, the strong Sunil beating up the same bad guy and the cops thinking that Gopi has become strong because of Bajrang Bali(God). Several other scenes like this are hilarious and this saves a typical action film from being completely typical. The climax is good and for once, it isn’t prolonged. However, the emotional scenes are boring and this slackens the pace of the film.
Sunil Shetty is awesome as Gopi, he makes you laugh at several places though he does overact slightly. As Kishan, Sunil is good and it’s good to see him fight normally. In films like Anth, he would shout will running towards and kicking the enemies this was very irritating. Karishma Kapoor is good while Shilpa Shirodkar is decent. Suresh Oberoi is good as the troubled father. Mohan Joshi is typecast and repeats his typical villain act. Side villains like Arun Bakshi are typecast as the typical politician. The rest provide decent support.
Action is good, Music is decent. However, only Hai Huku and Kisi Ko Dil are hits and the better of the lot. The raunchy songs are lame.
On the whole, Gopi Kishan is one of the superbly handled action comedies .These kinds of films made audiences and critics appreciate Sunil Shetty.
