The makers have gone big on Bade Miyan Chote Miyan and spent a lot of money on the stunts, scale and locations and in blowing up BMWs. Unfortunately, the script gets lost somewhere amid all this flashiness. Akshay and Tiger have an easy camaraderie and that may manage to hold your attention together for a while. At the end, it just becomes another addition to the long list of actioners laced with patriotic fervour.

Director Ali Abbas Zafar, who is known for giving explosive entertainers like the ‘Tiger’ series, once again displays his expertise in the genre. ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’ goes out all guns blazing to make for an entertaining potboiler with heart-pounding action, cheeky humour and barely a dull moment.

Forget comic chops, you'll not find an ounce of camaraderie between Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff as they go about firing ammo and flexing abs at a breakneck pace to ward off Prithvi's army of clones for nearly three excruciating hours of this noisy, nonsensical drivel.

Rating Score -> 2.5/5
Ali Abbas Zafar, who has impressed us with great action and massy sequences in Tiger Zinda Hai, failed to recreate that magic with Bade Miyan Chote Miyan. Despite having a big scale and all the noise, the action pieces were not up to the mark. The narrative along with twists and turns looked pretty much predictable. The biggest issue was that the core point of conflict between the antagonist and protagonists didn’t seem convincing enough.

#BadeMiyanChoteMiyan: DISAPPOINTING. Rating: ⭐⭐ Scale, stars, stunts, style, #BMCM has it all… Except SOUL and SUBSTANCE… #AliAbbasZafar had a golden opportunity, but delivers a royal mess… A few twists work, but fails in totality. #BMCM #BMCMReview

Rating Score -> 1/5
Akshay Kumar, Tiger Shroff film is a complete snoozefest. Could it be that some AI app secretly overtook the writing, and made the film into squeezable paste, with zero flavour? Otherwise how can you turn these two heroes -- Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff -- into such dull clones of themselves?

Bade Miyan Chote Miyan is too ordinary a fare to make any mark at the box-office. Given its huge budget, it will cut a sorry picture at the ticket counters and entail huge losses despite the festive release (Eid today (April 11), Ram Navmi on April 17).

For those with a penchant for action films, good, bad or ugly, BMCM will definitely make for a one-time watch. If nothing else, Akshay and Tiger's onscreen camaraderie and bromance is quite impressive, and it translates well from real to reel.

Akshay and Tiger jest and joust in this loud and clear mass entertainer. Writer-director Ali Abbas Zafar’s attempt to give the soul of Bollywood tropes an AI finish appeals in parts
11. India Today -
Rating Score -> 1.5/5
In the film, Akshay Kumar is Akshaying and Tiger Shroff is flying. They are put in a genre that they suit best, and it seems like a cakewalk for them. They are mostly required to pull off stunts rather than act and express, so not much acting is there for them.
12. Khaleej Times -
Rating Score -> 1.5/5
BMCM has been described as a comedy action thriller. We could believe this description had the banter between Tiger and Akshay shown wit, sparkle and verve. Or had the action scenes shown some imagination other than just blowing up vehicles, causing a lot of explosions and having its leads walk in slo-mo.

Rating Score -> 3/5
If you are attracted to Hollywood action films like Mission Impossible and Fast and Furious, then this film is also made for you and you will be able to enjoy it ignoring the minor flaws. The work of the main three actors, including the antagonist, is fantastic.
