Dybbuk: The Curse Is Real

It's again a ghost story but in a form and new country

The only thing you can see in this movie is the making which is very good and the performances by imraan and manav rest it the same story of revenge

This weekend there were so many entertaining options but it's your choice.

Imran Hashmi looked like he reluctantly agreed to do this film. He was disinterested throughout the film and that transferred to the audience. The supporting cast were incompetent in their respective roles. I gave 4* for the intermittent special effects that's all. The movie overall was disappointing.

If youve seen the Malayalam film Ezra, youll get nothing new here. Just some better stills in few frames. Story is identical. Even if not be a frame by frame copy, the differences are negligible.

If not, you could go for it as an above average horror / possession movie. Some good visuals, worth a single watch for horror genre fans.

But if i wanted to see it, there was already one to watch, Producers, if you are investing why not try something with its own identity or at least give the audience something new or different? Here only the cast is unique.

It's an official Remake of Malayalam movie Ezra I don't know why bollywood movies are going worse to worse Nothing new in this movie scene to scene copy And a lot of predictable scenes Lagging , Boring Not worth for watching.

Remake of 2017 Malayalam Film Ezra, Dybbuk tells the story of the spirit in the box that tries to destroy the village for the sake of revenge.

Emraan Hashmi playing the lead character matches the vibe of Prithviraj, who played the lead in the original. Being a remake, there was nothing additional new to offer but it did well to maintain itself from being an another weak remake of a South Indian movie.

At moments, the movie felt it was bit rushed to reach to the climax since this one was almost 40 minutes shorter in duration than the original. Dybbuk lacked the exploration of the story in depth, the way Ezra did.

In my opinion Dybbuk is a good attempt and manages at most parts to stand with the original, but short runtime and few moments that felt quick and unexplained was a downer for Dybbuk.

My Rating : 6/10.
