JODI BREAKERS has an engrossing and smartly executed second half that tilts scales in its favor. The right dose of drama and romance, besides a trendy, harmonious musical score, only act as toppings.

A "twist" in the "plot" is timed just before the interval, when you are seriously wondering if leaving midway in an empty theatre is an option. No worries of stepping on any toes, there’s hardly a handful for the show. But professional commitments are sacrosanct so I am still in the theatre, dreading the second half.

3 Ups and 3 Downs: Mind-boggling performances, strong storyline and dialogues leave Jodi Breakers in the category of one-time watch films. Editing, cinematography and poor portrayal of second half in terms of direction and screenplay proves fatal for the film.
On the whole, Jodi Breakers falls flat in its intention to showcase a well-knitted plot. Watch out this one only for Maddy and Bips.

Director Ashwini Chaudhary's latest film Jodi Breakers is an unusual romantic comedy of unusual pair R Madhavan and Bipasha Basu. The movie has all essential masala elements for the film goers. The movie is different from other Hindi films. Majority of Bollywood movies are about people falling in love, but this one is about a pair that separates people.
Overall, Jodi Breakers is good entertainer and you can watch it at least for superb acting of M Madhavan and Bipasha Basu.

Komal Nahta -Koimoi/ETC - Ratings 1/5
What’s Good: A few comedy scenes; the music.
What’s Bad: The defective screenplay; the uninspiring and meaningless second half.
Verdict: Jodi Breakers is a dull show. It will not be able to break even.
Loo break: Several.
Watch or Not?: Watch it for the performances and the music, but do not expect much else.

Which is a pity. Bipasha has never looked so radiant and her acting has never been as spontaneous. The break-up seems to suit her. Madhavan is one of our most talented actors. Omi Vaidya really has to find a new gag for himself. Avoid. Watch the Oscar nominees instead. I recommend The Artist. Uggie, the dog, will break your heart. In the best possible way.

Director Ashwini Chaudhary’s (Dhoop, Good Boy Bad Boy) storytelling is assured and unselfconscious. The story is told with the zest it deserves and is enhanced by the sparkling dialogue. Sadly, the director has a messed-up second half on his hands. Still, worth your while for the unusual story, interesting coupling, and the irreverent humour.

The story may not be entirely original yet the dialogues are refreshingly clever and crisp, keeping the pace of the film intact. The golden line being, “The best part of kissing is the unsure and unsettling feeling experienced just a moment before a kiss when you don’t know exactly how it’s going to turn out.” Greece is a country that doesn’t need a professional photographer to extract the plentiful shades of blue that the sea offers. But having one here only made it better. The music by Salim-Sulaiman is strictly average and even the high-pumping party numbers don’t induce any tapping of foot.
As Madhavan and Bips team up to snoop around, they remind you of Yogi Bear and Boo-Boo. But when they get intimate, your fond association with the adorable bhalus is scarred forever.

‘Tis the season for romance — at least in Bollywood. After “Ek Main aur Ekk Tu“ and “Ekk Deewana Tha“ this month, comes Ashwini Chaudhary’s “Jodi Breakers“, another film that attempts to bring together romance and comedy and hopes to leave you with a warm, fuzzy feeling in your tummy. And fails spectacularly, I might add.

Barring a couple of laughs, this film isn’t worth it. Go for it only if you must.

Savera R Someshwar feels Jodi Breakers could have been a good romance or a good comedy but it's neither. The film is seriously flawed.

Jodi Breakers fails to make up for a good rom-com. Watch the film only if you are a fan of Maddy and Bips.

The characters carry an otherwise monotonous plot to make the movie not only tolerable, but seldom enjoyable. The second half is sorely predictable, yet the actors keep it going. Leave all expectations behind before entering the hall and you ‘might’ (urgency redefined) walk out with a smiling face.

Madhavan and Bipasha, though an unusual jodi, pull off their roles amazingly, thereby raising ‘Jodi Breakers’ to the level of a splendid movie despite a weak denouement. Go delve in dysfunctional relationships this weekend!
Jodi Breakers Review By: 
Avijit Ghosh - Times Of India - Ratings:2.5/5
Jodi Breakers isn't entirely without merit though. Madhavan is earnest. And Bipasha looks stunning, especially in the scenes shot in Greece. The romantic scenes between the two have a coy intensity. Together they try to make the film better than it actually is. And the track named Bipasha has spunk and rhythm though Kunwara is likely to be the chartbuster. But it simply isn't enough.

Madhavan looks yuck! a real eye sore.. swollen face and a waist that's heading only one way.. and what an odd pairing with Bips... Poor girl, she's fallen on hard times I guess to pair with a non-hero!

Two fine actors, R. Madhavan and Bipasha Basu come together as Jodi-Breakers. Watch this flick to know what happens to city's No. 1 jodi-breakers.
