Gopala Gopala

Critics Review

2.50

Commercial version of OMG

The first half of Gopala Gopala leave in splits with its humorous comedy in parts and the interval introduction of Pawan Kalyan make you believe that a good series of events are round the corner. What happens instead is complete stagnancy in the narrative. Frankly, one just doesn�t get moved in the manner Kishore Kumar would have expected from his audience. Even look of the film borders on the artificial rather than the real or the sublime as the original. All in all, Gopala Gopala could have been a mordacious grandiosity against the malefactors of religion but it all manages to do is mucky the debate on the existence of god.(more)

Thought Provoking Entertainer

Gopala Gopala is a film which is made straight from the heart. It has an underlying message and is narrated in quite an entertaining way. Icing on the cake are the stunning performances by Venkatesh and Pawan Kalyan which make this film a thought provoking entertainer during this festive season.(more)

Powering the victory

Plus points of the film are rare genre (satire on god and blind believes), Pawan Kalyan and Venkatesh. The weak points are not-so-arresting screenplay and prolonged climax. I have seen the original Oh My God. The original is more authentic. The remade version is more of a sugar-coated one. It�s an okay film for the people who have seen the original. The success (long term run) will depend on how people who haven�t watched the original embrace it. On a whole, Gopala Gopala is a well packaged film in a different genre though I expected a better remake out of Oh My God!(more)
