NOTHING can beat the original.. alan as simon was simply the best comedic performance till date...

and I am indian, saw the indian version too, it was the exact same movie... it was a authorized remake, not a copy...
but not even 10% as funny

"You are not in Kansas anymore" Avatar, The Star Wars of our generation...

The US version for me was actually better, and I've watched the original, it was dry.

With a signature like that you can't expect anything better (Avatard).

"and what can i say about indian... they cannot make anything original... remake after remake..."

Can not stop laughing at this comment. I'm sorry. But Bollywood is creating more original stuff then standard Hollywood today (from where this "remake" was spawned). And in a faster rate! And amongst thousand of unoriginal movies like you say. And I'm not even from India or even close! And I am not even a fan of India's movies!

I'm just stating the obvious.

I haven't seen the Indian remake. I'm black and I hated this version - the English version was superb - a must watch!!!

You can't go: "There are three remakes: First, there's the original film..." What is the original film a remake of? Itself?

"Oh, my God. Bear is driving! How can that be?!"

I'm really confused. I was already aware of the original British version (never saw it), but I thought there was a previous U.S. remake released a couple of years ago. I could have sworn I saw some TV ads for it. Anyway, I just watched this latest version last night, and while I laughed a few times (could have really lived without the whole "poo" thing), overall it was a disappointment. The actors seemed really stiff and uncomfortable, or just bored perhaps, which made viewing this film a real chore. I wouldn't mind seeing this ensemble again...in a better film.

I am going to rent the U.K. version though, and the Bollywood remake actually looks pretty funny. It will be interesting to compare all 3 films.
