Frankly speaking, I went to watch this film only for Govinda as I wanted to watch him in a new avatar after many years. The trailers looked good so I had expectations from it, but what turned out was a complete mess of a movie. Govinda, undoubtedly the most powerful actor of the film was made to sit on a rooftop for most parts of the film by the director and growl orders to his henchmen played by Ranveer and Ali Zafar and crack lame jokes with them. While he may have given his full effort to make himself look menacing as Bhaiyaji, the director Shaad Ali wasted it by his poor direction. The director has tried to give the movie a 'Tarantino movie' feel but has given no attention to the story which is a very poorly written one. I am not a fan of Ranveer Singh, but his performance in this movie is good and has given it much needed energy. Parineeti Chopra is wasted in a role of a social worker with only one thing to do, that is party hard and drink harder. Ali Zafar mostly keeps quiet throughout which is a good thing. Except for the title track no other song is great which starts playing on after every 10-15 minutes. I gave Kill Dil 4 stars because of 1.Govinda, 2.Ranveer's effort, 3.the title track, 4.Gulzar's lyrics. Otherwise it's boring and lazy.
