Housefull 5

Creatively Bankrupt Bollywood has again put forward a brainless,humourless, cringeworthy movie which will further erode the reputation of Hindi movie industry. First thing, is this a movie or chance to for forgotten actors and actresses (why being forgotten is best known to them) to revive their careers. And I am damn sure Akshay Kumar will do any movie however bad the script is if he is paid a handsome fee.

Now back to plot of this 2 hours 45 minutes movie, a billionaire dies on luxurious cruise ship with murderer on board, police comes to catch the murderer and solve the case, and there are people who are ready to be the heir to the billionaire and the chaos and drama that unfolds. Why this plot sounds like familiar? Probably because movie has been made on this plot previously not only in Bollywood but in Hollywood also with plot quite similar. It's high time movie producers in Bollywood invest more on writers to produce decent enough script to make audiences laugh and not to repeat used plots, cringe jokes which even fails to make you smirk.

Though with all the rights being sold for OTT, TV and other digital platforms producer will recover its investment, Good Luck in getting decent collection and reviews for general public.

Vulgar jokes which never lands and too many actors and actresses being introduced in the whole movie. Don't watch it with family and I would suggest don't even watch it. Kind of predictable movie with same childish jokes.

There is no need to watch both the movies, both are literally same movies with only 1 villan being interchanged without changing any story or even a scene. You can watch one movie and search who is villan in another one.

The movie uses old clips and references of older housefull movies and Akshay Kumar's funny scenes. Movie is sexy if you are into that than you can watch it otherwise there is no comedy, very less suspense and literally tasteless movie.

"Housefull 5" is the fifth installment in the Housefull franchise.

It features a massive star cast, including Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Nargis Fakhri, Sonam Bajwa, Chitrangada Singh, Soundarya Sharma, Johnny Lever, and more.

Despite the big names, the acting and performances often feel over-the-top and cringeworthy.

The movie comes in two versions - A and B - with the killer and the final few minutes differing in both, which is a creative idea but not executed very well.

With a runtime of 2 hours and 45 minutes, it includes 4 songs that total around 15 minutes-some of which feel unnecessary and cringe-inducing.

There are also nostalgic elements like monkeys and parrots, reminiscent of the original Housefull, but the writing and dialogues are poorly done, and the storyline had the potential to be much better.

The comedy feels forced and rarely lands; most of the so-called funny moments end up being dull or predictable.

The bromance between Jackie Shroff and Sanjay Dutt was one of the few highlights, but the dialogues and sound didn't sync well, likely due to bad dubbing.

An extended version with Nana Patekar started off promising, but a random song abruptly killed the suspense and flow.

Overall, I didn't enjoy the movie much, but it still had a few entertaining moments. The movie can be inappropriate for the kids.

Not the worst film ever, but far from what it could've been.

The Housefull franchise has always thrived on loud humor and slapstick comedy. What once was an occasionally amusing madhouse now feels like a painfully forced circus. Let's start with the elephant in the room - the script. Or rather, the lack of it. The plot of Housefull 5 feels like it was written in haste over a single coffee break, without any effort to tie the sequences into a cohesive story. It relies on outdated humor, and tests the patience of even the most loyal fans of the series.

Director Tarun Mansukhani, best known for Dostana, delivers what is undeniably the weakest execution in the Housefull series so far. While previous entries, despite their flaws, had occasional entertaining sparks and comic timing, this one feels like a chaotic improvisation exercise gone terribly wrong. The screenplay is riddled with pointless sequences that add no value and only stretch the runtime. The second half, in particular, becomes a patience test, scenes come and go without context. There's an uncomfortable reliance on double-meaning jokes.

Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, and Abhishek Bachchan try their best to keep the energy alive. Their comic timing occasionally brings some charm to the otherwise tasteless scenes. Fardeen Khan and Dino Morea offer decent support. However, the female cast Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Soundarya Sharma, and Chitrangda Singh are reduced to mere glamour props. The hyper sexualization of Soundarya Sharma's character in particular feels uncomfortable, drawing unnecessary attention rather than laughs. Shreyas Talpade, Chunky Pandey, Johnny Lever, and Ranjeet are utterly wasted. The entry scenes for Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, and Nana Patekar were great but performance suffered from the lackluster writing.
