Double Ismart

I don't know how I'm still alive after watching this movie. It's such a terrible film, completely illogical. The story is awful and the direction is even worse. The movie is never serious at any point, and the action scenes are so illogical that I couldn't help but laugh at them. What's even worse is that this is supposed to be a sequel to the 2019 movie "iSmart Shankar," where Shankar had Arun's (movie character) memory in his brain, but there's no mention of that memory in this movie. The movie includes a forced comedy character just to add some unnecessary humor. It's a complete WASTE OF TIME that I've already wasted.... The only good thing about the movie is Sanjay Dutt, and that's it.

The film is a complete disappointment, feeling like a recycled version of their own previous work. It's a waste of both money and time don't bother watching it in theaters or even on OTT platforms. Save yourself the effort and avoid this film altogether.

The film is a major letdown, essentially a lazy copy of their own previous work. The plot lacks originality and fails to engage, making it a waste of both money and time. Avoid watching it in theaters or on OTT platforms; it's not worth the effort. The storyline is predictable, the acting uninspired, and the overall experience disappointing. Save yourself the frustration and skip this one entirely.

Expecting a nice little thriller judging by the summary of the movie. What I got was terrible acting which was cringeworthy at times, a ridiculous plot, loud and obnoxious music and on top of that the absolutely irritating character Boka.

Always hard to understand how some movies get greenlit anyways.

Fightscenes are so OTT (not every punch or kick makes the badguy swirl in mid-air) and the bad guys laughable.

I've seen some bad movies in my time but this is just next level. Avoid at all cost and treat yourself to a nice dinner instead. Hope this and other reviews will be enough warning for you!

I have always admired Puri's movies. This movie though changes all that. The guy was known for his originality and his unique creative story telling. This movie has very average screenplay, story and character. The excessive use of F words by almost all the characters is pretty shocking. It looks like the censor board slept through the movie and didn't catch all the cuss words. The final fight around the statue of lord Shiva was totally not required. It looks and feels like an insult to the statue of god. Ram's acting is good. He pulls of a very good accent required by the protagonist. As others have amply pointed out, the movie just doesn't click. Hope Puri comes back with a better movie next time and not this Halwa.

I can't even begin to describe how disappointing this movie is. The Telugu audience has evolved to appreciate quality cinema, regardless of budget, and often turns smaller films into hits. However, it seems like the directors and actors haven't updated their approach to match the changing tastes of the audience.

The misogynistic traits of the lead character, along with Ali's irritating performance, were unbearable. The glorification of women objectification was absolutely appalling.

Throughout the movie, I felt like walking out of the theater. If I had watched it at home, I would have sped through it just to avoid the unpleasant experience.

As a movie enthusiast, I usually make it a point to sit through a film, no matter how bad it is. But this one stands among the worst I've seen. Excessive action, vulgar dialogues, indecent gestures, and overacting never makes a movie good.
