Ali Abbas Zafar’s Bade Miyan Chote Miyan follows the patriotism formula to the hilt. The first half has suspense regarding Prithviraj Sukumaran’s Kabir but it’s mostly formulaic.

Both Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff haven’t had the best time since the pandemic and the movie isn’t likely to change that although Tiger comes off much better here.

The first half of Bade Miyan Chote Miyan keeps you guessing about Kabir’s motivations and why he has so much anger towards Rakesh (Akshay Kumar) and Firoz (Tiger Shroff).

Marcin Laskawiec’s cinematography goes well with the scale of the movie and the cinematographer deserves distinction marks for capturing the scale of a war-like situation.

The back story of Prithviraj Sukumaran’s Kabir and the reason behind his angst has been well-written and enacted.

A major problem with Bade Miyan Chote Miyan is the portions after the flashback of Kabir, a certain monotonousness creeps in.

Beyond Manushi Chhillar’s action, there isn’t much to her performance. Sonakshi Sinha repeats her “damsel in distress” act with a one-tone expression.

Bade Miyan Chote Miyan is strictly for those who like seeing larger-than-life stunts with a predictable storyline.
