Phone Bhoot

Film Review: Phone Bhooth #sanjuzzreviews #phonebhoot #IshaanKhatter #SidhantChaturvedi #katrinakaif #JackieShroff 2 losers Ishaan Khattar ( Gullu) & Sidhant Chaturvedi( Major) team up with a friendly Bhatakti Aatma ( Ragini) Katrina as the Desi Ghostbusters. However the Ragini has an agenda of her own. There is also an evil tantric ( Aatmaram) Jackie Shroff who is jealous of their success & trying to get rid of them with his army of ghosts. Will our bungling duo outwit the villains and be victorious in the end is what this film is all about.

Kudos to the makers for attempting something different. The camaraderie between the protagonists is decent, though they are a bit loud at times.

However there aren't many lol moments in the film which is a travesty when u r attempting a film in the horror-comedy genre. Jackie as tantric Aatmaram is funny with his "bhidu" type one-liners. Ending is quite predictable which again lets you down.

What I liked are the references to old horror films like the Ramsey's and some well executed slapstick comedy scenes which invoke spontaneous laughter. Unfortunately there aren't many of these!!

A good attempt by makers to try something new. Not as bad as Roohi, yet ...not as good as Stree!!

Will give it a 2.5/5 ... Adios🙂

What a horrible movie. Cheap dialogues. Cheap comedy. Katrina Kaif is just a waste of space. Dont know why ppl keep glorifying her.

Such movies dont deserve a single star. The 2 child actors also have wasted their talent. All in a total waste of time and a bad movie.

The comedy is not worth it. Jackie Shroff as usual is bad as it can be.

Sometimes I wonder if these movies are made just to launder illegitimate funds. Bad would be an understatement for this kovie. Report this movie if it comes out on OTT. When will bollywood filmmakers stop making fools out of audienxes.

There is not a single scary element. I had to walk out of the theatre post interval.

Ragini, a ghost comes to 2 horror fans who can see ghosts with a job idea. To be Ghostbusters. Everything is going fine until they realise the Ragini's intention behind this.

Phone Bhoot is a decent comedy film. Good acting by the 2 heroes and Katrina Kaif was also decent. Jackie shroff was just alright, nothing special Phone Bhoot succeeds in making you laugh especially in the first half. The second half starts good however it dips both with the story and the comedy. But you do laugh a lot.

It succeeds with being a comedy film. I wouldn't call this a horror film. Even though it is about ghosts, it isn't a horror comedy and it didn't have the intention to be. If you are expecting a movie like Golmaal Again and Stree, you'll be a little disappointed.

The climax isn't memorable, it's just decent

Overall, it is a decent movie which makes you laugh a lot. However due to the dip in the second half and the just decent ending, the movie is a one time watch.

People who are reviewing this movie wanna connect to Ghostbusters because they think have actual knowledge of Hollywood that's funny,This movie was a fun for when I don't usually like Bollywood,They paid homage to Unime(Anime), Hollywood and also some of funny Bollywood movies,This wasn't a like a James bond movie,it's was just a fun entertainment like home alone kind I'm ashamed that entertainment like this doesn't work but crap like Simba works in north india.

I watch Spanish,Norway,German,Russian, Japnese and other languages movies but these guys watch mainstream movies and think they know everything. Hahaha My Insta: hatimquilon_

A cheap ripoff of Ghostbusters that is only able to provide entertainment in scenes that are very few and far between. Because I had a much higher ceiling of expectations for the film, I would like to exclusively attribute the fault to those who orchestrated the marketing strategies in advance of its release. A trap was set for me, and I walked straight into it.

It's not at all the laughter ride I was expecting. Yes, it made me chuckle quite a bit, but that's it. It was not the uproarious, outrageous parody I was hoping it would come to be. Albeit thanks to its star-studded ensemble which kept me fairly occupied. It is certainly an ambitious effort, and I am inclined to agree that it is quite a stout attempt, but I must concede that it was not the sharpest tool in the shed.
