The Bhootnii

The Bhootnii is a prime example of a great idea gone terribly wrong. What could have been an entertaining horror-comedy is instead a tedious, unfunny slog that fails to land its punches.

Not every HorCom can be a Stree, but at least watchable? If you can survive the first 15-20 min, then there might be some hope you will finish this! It has it's moments, but no one watches a 2 hr movie for the 5 scenes that worked well?

The film's most glaring flaw lies in its execution. The dialogue is clunky, the pacing is a mess, and the comedic timing is non-existent. The cast tries their best to make the material work, but they are fighting a losing battle against a script that gives them nothing to work with.

This is especially true for Sanjay Dutt, whose comedic potential is completely wasted here. A veteran of beloved comedy roles, he is criminally underused and let down by the poor writing, leaving a talented performer with little more than a forgettable caricature.

The central concept had potential, but it was utterly squandered by a lifeless script and direction that felt more amateurish than inspired.

Ultimately, the movie is a cinematic misfire. It's a comedy that isn't funny, and a ghost story that lacks any genuine scares. The Bhootnii is a frustrating watch that leaves you feeling disappointed by what could have been.

Bhootni is a movie that attempts to blend comedy and horror, but the execution falls short, especially for viewers who prefer logical and realistic storytelling. The film features a variety of props, such as swords, knuckles, and other weapons, which are intended to enhance the supernatural and action-packed elements of the story. However, the props come across as entirely fake, detracting from the movie's overall appeal. For instance, the knuckles used in the film are adorned with LED lights, which are poorly concealed with white strips, making them appear cheap and unconvincing. This lack of attention to detail can be jarring for audiences who expect a more polished and believable presentation.

Overall, "Bhootni" struggles to deliver a cohesive and engaging narrative, relying heavily on gimmicks and subpar special effects. While the movie might offer a few laughs and moments of entertainment, it ultimately feels amateurish and fails to captivate viewers who appreciate logical plot development and high-quality production values. On a scale of 10, "Bhootni" might generously earn a 5, making it a passable but not particularly memorable cinematic experience. If you're someone who values realism and logical storytelling, this movie might not be the best choice for you.

When the movie started, I genuinely thought it might be at least a little horror-based or have some suspense. The buildup made it seem like there was something spooky coming, but after a while, nothing was making sense. Monjolika randomly appears, there are strange fight scenes, and out of nowhere, Sanjay Dutt shows up fighting ghosts with a gun. I mean-really? A gun for ghosts?

The plot was all over the place. There was no proper storyline, no real character development, and the scenes didn't connect well. It felt like the makers just threw in random elements-some horror, some action, some comedy-hoping something would stick. But it didn't.

People in the theatre were either laughing or completely confused. If you're watching just for timepass and don't care about logic or plot, maybe you'll enjoy a few moments. But for someone who expects even basic storytelling, this movie will be a big letdown. Honestly, it felt like a waste of both time and money. Bollywood really needs to focus more on good scripts instead of just star power and effects.

The movie has only one dialogue SACHI MOHABBAT SACHI MOHABBAT. Waste of time and money, entire cast did there worst acting. I don't understand why the production don't watch the movie before release so they should have an idea what they have made.

Even the backstory of the ghost was basely just like the movie.

Even the direction was like scene were not related at all.

I don't think it to be a horror comedy but it should be baseless comedy where in the entire movie there are hardly 1 or 2 scene where you will laugh or else it is a comedy movie where you won't laugh watching it or might sleep before the film end.

I watched this movie with my family. Don't trust the positive reviews. This movie is utter garbage. According to me, neither did it deliver on the story nor on the comedy. The story literally feels like a 10 year old kid wrote it. I can't blame the actors though. When you have such a pointless story, it's difficult for the actors to salvage the movie even if they are good. They tried really hard on the comedy front but the comedy just wasn't good. The horror element will scare you in one or two scenes but nothing noteworthy. The effects were decent though in some scenes. Overall it's a pointless movie that should not have seen the light of day in its current state. Ofcourse if you want to throw your money and time at it, go for it.
