First reviews of Bhagam Bhag coming in.
Warning: Potential spoilers in both. Given that this movie is also a murder mystery, read with caution.
Langda Tyagi at Moviewalah enjoyed the movie, even if he didn’t laugh as much as he did when he saw Hera Pheri. For those wondering about Govinda, he warns that this is not a “Govinda-David Dhawan” movie but a “Akki-Priyadarshan” movie.
the movie is an all out fun ride. If you leave your brains behind, which is now a necessity with most Bollywood flicks, you’ll enjoy it. After a slow 10-15 minutes the movie goes into high gear and doesn’t stop until after all the bhagam bhag is over. [..]In terms of performances Akki and Paresh Rawal are in their old form. I liked Govinda’s role in this movie a lot. Sometimes when a big actor is making a comeback, directors tend to go over board and try to do too much with them. However Priyadarshan has crafted a great role for Chi Chi, who, being the master he is, delivers with ease. Hard core Govinda fans might find his role a bit subdued, but I think it’s good for him.
Movie critic Taran Adarsh, writing at India FM, finds that an ordinary screenplay as has been handled well and the movie is a safe bet for distributors.

Yet, there’s no denying that his handling of the comic scenes is superb. ‘Signal’ is the best track of the enterprise, while ‘Afreen’ appeals more due to its choreography[..] Akshay does his part well, but why is the actor getting typecast in similar roles? [..]Govinda doesn’t get it right in his comeback vehicle. [..]Paresh Rawal is competent, while Rajpal Yadav is superb, but is sidelined in the second hour.
