Partner (Blu-Ray) (2007)

Hey folks, I'm pretty familiar with Bollywood films & let me tell you, once you see one you're instantly HOOKED!! I love them! This film reminds alot of Hitch with Will Smith being portrayed by Salman Khan & Kevin James being portrayed by Govinda. Eva Mendes' character is protaganized by Lara Dutta and Amber Valleta's character is protaganized by Katrina Kaif. I must say pairing off Katrina with Govinda was strange,but he pulls off the silliness and clumsy humor well. Salman and Lara do a really good job and Lara's very convincing. The film follows Hitch almost the same except with a twist. Lara Dutta has a young boy and doesn't want to get involved with anyone, Salman comes along and just like in Hitch she hesitates to go out with him,but then she gives him a chance. I won't say anything more b/c I'll give it away. Go ahead and buy this film it's very cute. By the way if you love Bollywood as much as I do this film has some great dance sequences and music.

I wasn't expecting that much from this movie but it was better than anticipated.

It's close to the plot of Hitch but don't expect a complete match.

It is comedy that ran close to the edge of silly at times but didn't cross the line. The script needed a bit of attention and the movie tried to underline a comic moment over and over when we got it the first time. They could have finished the movie 5 minutes earlier but overplayed a scene to the point of Salman going into unnecessary hamminess.

Salman also had too many gratuitous shirt removals (and I'm not that impressed by that sight anyway!)

Apart from this Govinda and Salman were mostly quite good and Salman was dancing better and with more range of moves than I've seen him in many movies. Katrina and Govinda made an appropriately cute couple (if a little unlikely!) Lara Dutta was fine but didn't have a lot of chemistry with Salman.

The music and dance was contemporary, upbeat, and generally catchy and lifted the movie beyond the mediocre.

Most ratings on the Net hover about the 5 out of 10. If I could give this 3 1/2 I would mostly for the music and dance.

Look, who cares if this is a rip-off from Hitch. Partner is addictive and I find it more enjoyable with those great song numbers which are fantastic and memorable. Salman Khan and Govinda have great chemistry in this movie and their dialogue were peppered with lots of funny one-liners (especially from Salman). Salman Khan played his character so well you'd think that's the real him a bit naughty but so charming! Govinda did a great job as a clueless bumbling oaf needing help from the love guru to win his dream girl, played by Katrina Kaif. While Katrina Kaif provided great eye-candy to the movie with her pretty smiles,her acting has always been somewhat like a one-track pony kind and in Partner it was no different! Lara Dutta did a believable job as a single mom and the love interest of Salman's character. Also thumbs-up to the little guy that played Lara's child as he was great in certain scenes with Salman Khan. Overall it's an entertaining and funny movie great for lovers of Bollywood music and Salman Khan!

It's an attempt to replicate HITCH by Will Smith but winds up a confused mixed bag and comedy of errors

I just love this film and the music ! It's the kind of Hindi film that you can watch over and over and still laugh ! This also was a great film for fashion loved the outfits very contemporary and I admit, anything that Salman Khan wears looks Fab but he was on point in this movie. The music ( I now own the soundtrack) is great and the dancing equally so this movie is pure entertainment and if you are a SK fan...then you will see him at his best: funny, well dressed, dancing his arse off, and entertaining the audience. The salute to Hip Hop is hysterical...the rendition of " You're My Love " makes me laugh everytime I see the music video or watch the film. Govinda is great and as always his comedic timing is impeccable. Sajid-Wajid really went all out on the music !

If you're looking for a light fun Hindi movie this is it !
