Cirkus

Worst thing about the film is double role of Ranveer Singh & the best part was when the film ended. Pooja Hegde and Jacqueline Fernandez are wasted in the film and so are several veteran actors, all of whom try to take the film to a new height but fall due to the weak script. This movie was one of the worst I have ever seen. The plot was ridiculous and the acting was incredibly wooden and wooden. The special effects were laughably bad and the dialogue was cheesy and cliche. Overall, the movie is worse than Sajid Khan films & was a complete waste of time and money, and I cannot recommend it to anyone.

A bad film with no entertainment at all. Just bunch of jokers trying make people laugh with their archaic humour. Bad writing, poor dated jokes.

Not even one person from the huge ensemble cast makes you laugh or even smile.

The movie which feels like it's taking the audience for granted and assuming the audience will take whatever is serve to them Feel disheartened and upset of watching this movie buying a ticket of 600. So much so that the gourmet popcorn worth 500 felt more worth it than the 3 hr long movie.

No head tail to the movie Flat story Flat jokes Ott hammy performances Also Started to get annoyed lookin at ranveer on screen. Please skip it.

All the characters, colours and chaos cannot make up for *lack of comedy.*

Remake of classic Cult Comedy Angoor 1982 Movie - Sanjeev Kumar

But a bad one..!!

An army of characters put together with a purpose to make us laugh, but is far from that. ..not funny.

Very Dull and nonsense movie with overActing of Ranveer Singh..! 👎

varun sharma is overRated bahot hi ghatia actor hai vo..!! Jcqline is a plastic doll she cannot act - Bimbbette..! Pooja is hving limited role..!

Army of comedians are there but none can make us smile - such poor script & direction..! Rohit shetty ne khud ne ye film nahi dekhi thi or kya..?? I mean how dumb he can be coming up with this movie...! 🤔

Cirkus (2022) : Movie Review -

Rohit Shetty's Cirkus has a big cast that includes Ranveer Singh, Pooja Hegde, Jacqueline Fernandez, Varun Sharma, and many other comedy actors that are loved by audiences, but the show doesn't do justice to the names. William Shakespeare made "The Comedy of Errors" in the 16th century and gave the world an immortal formula for crazy entertainment. Bollywood has made "Ram Aur Shyam," "Seeta Aur Geeta," "Judwaa," and countless other films on the same formula of twins. The legendary writer Gulzar made "Angoor" on a very small budget and with a not-so-famous cast compared to others and showed them that good content cannot be bought with money. That vision and storytelling cannot be bought, copied, or remade. You have to have it in yourself. Rohit Shetty, who has the most 100-crore grossers for any Bollywood director, was so busy with money spinners that he didn't pay attention to this thing. Cirkus has lavish sets, a big scale, a huge cast, and a big director, but all that goes to waste because it has a tiny content. From writing, screenwriting, performances, music, and direction, Cirkus is the biggest disappointment of the year that nobody expected.

Cirkus is adapted from Angoor but set against a different backdrop. It revolves around a funny doctor's experiment in which two pairs of twin brothers can live separately, with one of them staying with the other. Roy (Ranveer Singh) and Joy (Varun Sharma) are adopted by a rich family in Bengaluru, while the other pair is adopted by a middle-class family and have a circus of their own in Ooty. What happens when one pair of Joy and Roy travel to the town of the other pair is all you get to see in Cirkus. It involves a lot of misunderstandings, relationships, robberies, electric current, and chaos. One of our Roys is married, while the other is about to be married. Naturally, the misunderstanding implicates their love interests too.

Just like the ancient circus, the film Cirkus is damn outdated. Forget Angoor's entire runtime; it does not even match 1/10th of it. Even the last 10 minutes of Charlie Chaplin's cult classic "Circus" (1929) are 10 times funnier than this 138-minute loud show. What Farhad Samji, Sanchit Bedre, and Vidhi Ghodgaonkar have written should be sent to the film library to educate people about how not to write a script. The screenplay is even more dumb. A KG student could easily point out mistakes here. Which doctor can have the patience to wait for years to see what his one experiment has done? Didn't he do anything else for years? Having a film based in an outdated era is fine; many writers and filmmakers do it, but what's the need for using outdated execution? Why can't the character be organic and funny? Making cringe faces, busted organs, and shock-giving moments is not enough to make one laugh. Why do you need to use old songs to make our ears bleed? Cirkus is a flop show there.

Talking about performances, it seems that there was a competition among the cast members to see who would do worse. I respect the comedy legends, and I know how difficult it is to act in this genre. I myself had become a topic of hush-hush in school days when I tried a 2-minute stand-up comedy act. Ranveer Singh had a blast last Christmas with 83, delivering his career-best performance, but 2022 has left two black spots on his emerging, illustrious career. Jayeshbhai Jordaar and now Cirkus: Why Ranveer? Why? How on earth can Gully Boy and 83 be followed by these two duds? Pooja Hegde doesn't even try. Radhe Shyam, Beast, Acharya, and now Cirkus-dear Pooja Hegde, you could do a lot better, or should I say you deserved better. In her first verbal dialogue, Jacqueline Fernandez yells, "Daddy!" Just one word, and you know the game is over. Even the re-recorded accents of Pran, Jeevan, and Prem Chopra would have sounded better than the original sound that Sanjay Mishra generated. Varun Sharma is there, but you have to remind yourself of that so often. Siddarth Jadhav, Murali Sharma, Mukesh Tiwari, and Brajesh Hirjee have done decently despite badly written characters. Johny Lever is completely wasted. I mean, can you believe it? How can someone waste THE JOHNY LEVER, and that too in a comedy film?! The rest of the cast has nothing impressive either, so why waste a couple of lines?

Cirkus is a high-scale production with good support from the technical team. Current Laga is the only saving grace in the music album, and wouldn't you love Deepika's wild dance steps? The cinematography is neat, the background score keeps you busy, and the locations and sets are eye-pleasing, though some of them look fake and banal. The VFX work didn't provide details on the final output. Cirkus' dialogues might just go down in history books as one of the worst written dialogues for a Rohit Shetty film. "Main wafadaar hu, Maine aapka Kela khaya hai," "Itte-cock se hua," and "Municipality" will annoy you. How can Rohit expect us to hear these double-meaning jokes with our families in cinemas? Where are those clean family films by him? Every single laugh is forceful and inessential. What's wrong with Rohit that he got to this level? I never expected this. Yes, I know he's not making those high-repeat value films like "Golmaal: Fun Unlimited" and "Singham" nowadays, but he was doing fine with those decent entertainments that can be least watched at once. I agree, Bollywood has gone wrong in 2022 and has not made good comedies for over a decade, but nobody expected this kind of fall. Cirkus is a king-sized disheartenment. Who'd expected the last Bollywood release of the year to be so bad and tortuous? At least, not me. The pandemic has affected our lives, and so have filmmakers too. It is clearly visible from the products they have made post pandemic. I hope he roars back with Singham and Golmaal Again.

RATING - 3/10*

If you want to watch a film with absolute no plot or story, watch this.

This harks back to a bad 1980s Bollywood film that were cheap and nasty.

Twins separated at birth is a story done to death in Bollywood but there is no difference in the two characters.

Ranveer overacts to the point that it made me cringe. The supporting cast have very little to support.

Money has been wasted making this and I doubt they will recover their budget let alone make a profit. I think Bollywood need to go back to the drawing board and think of some original ideas that appeal to the much wiser and aware audiences.

Its just bad, save your money or give to the needy. This is a total mess 💯
