Critic reviews and ratings

  • Director Bumpy and his team of writers may not have done enough to please the classes, but their spunky little film has enough thrills and laughs to give the massy crowds value for money.

    Critic rating (?)

  • A better plan of action and a few dry runs with the script would have ensured a product to bank on.

    49

    Critic rating (?)

  • If you like a good blend of comedy and thriller then Bank Chor is a film for you.

    Critic rating (?)

  • is highly average film with a boring comedy and an outdated thriller ...quotient...

    Critic rating (?)

  • Even a substandard or cliched basic plotline could have been sidestepped were only the gags smart enough, or, at least, that there were enough of them. This one spends too much time not going for the laughs. It starts off being about blank chors, and ends up a bank bore.

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...starts as a slapstick comedy with decent laughs, but then goes the thriller way. This is where it falters; neither does the film make you laugh, nor does it deliver thrills.

    39

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...a damp squib right from the word go.

    29

    Critic rating (?)

  • Even if one overlooks at the glaring loopholes in its tonal switch and professed slyness, it's frustrating how much Bank Chor delays its denouement because nobody cried wolf.

    29

    Critic rating (?)

  • Its not that Bank Chor doesn't aim for a cinematic statement, it does, the maker has tried to make a comment on the cultural and other divides in this film but it's so juvenile that it hardly registers and ends up a mockery - a joke on itself.

    29

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...is low on laughs, squanders its potential, and reflects the ineptitude of the heist in question.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...the film has been marketed as a comedy but is actually an aspiring comic-thriller. Aspiring, because it fails majorly in being a comedy, and gives us little thrilling experience.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...is a tiresomely bad film.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...If the one line of premise had not been stretched so long and stayed focussed on comedy, this film could have been a hoot. But unfortunately it isn't.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...what's wrong in this film is not the casting or the acting, but the decision of basing a full-fledged film on a theme so trivial.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • Despite its many misses, Bank Chor has more verve. Whatever little progress Bumpy has made as a filmmaker, however, is far outweighed by the insidious messaging of this film which cashes in on the prejudices that wrack Indian society today below a mask of good intentions, comedy and thrills.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • Calling this convoluted mess a film is demeaning to the word, because I have seen 14-year-olds put together better work than this at school plays.

    19

    Critic rating (?)

  • ...shockingly lame and juvenile...
