कपकपी

No development at all, very boring storyline, I think this movie was made for just money laundering.

While making movie in the first half they forgot to insert any kind of ghost entity, then they just going here and there are several unanswered questions. They were probably high when making this movie.

It is very cringey movie, doesn't worth you time. Unnecessary cuts and scenes.

Story begins with Shreyas in hospital fractured doctor says to him he will take time to recover but he is desperate to see his friends but then story shifts to flashback to intro his other five friends. But there hassle takes atleast an hour. The very boring part where you start to imagine whether there are ghosts in this movie or they forgot as I mentioned before. Then there's scam then it turns out to be ghost. I don't know how this came to real life.

"Kapkapi" is an average comedy film that fails to impress. The movie starts off slowly, with no horror elements to speak of. However, things take a turn for the worse when Tushar Kapoor enters the scene. His presence seems to drag the movie down, making it below-average and even non-tolerable at times.

The pacing issues and poor direction further exacerbate the problem, making the movie feel like a waste of time. The comedy, which is supposed to be the film's strong suit, falls flat, and the overall experience is underwhelming.

Given the movie's lackluster performance in almost every department, it's safe to say that "Kapkapi" can be avoided without much loss. With its poor direction and unengaging storyline, the film fails to leave a lasting impression, making it a forgettable watch.

Overall, "Kapkapi" is a movie that can be skipped without much regret. Its failure to deliver on its promises makes it a disappointing watch, and its poor direction and unengaging storyline only add to its shortcomings.

An utterly pathetic waste of time headache of a disturbingly long movie that I would suggest no one to watch with a constant irritating headache inducing so called jump scares and bgm. I went to watch because it was rated well but I must say WHAT A HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE MOVIE WITH A VERY WEAK SCRIPT AND EVEN BAD ACTING. If you love your brain please don't watch it. The main leads or the so called main leads have out done themselves in their sheer capability to be so cringe and disgustingly annoying on the screen that no one with a brain want to see it if you want your ear drums to be blown up and be destroyed. The movie is horrible, the storyline is overrated, the dialogues and punches are old and outdated and the bgm OMG the bgm bad. For the sake of your sanity don't watch it.

One of the best horror comedy I ever witnessed. Tushar Kapoor and Shreyas Talpade at its best. Watched with my friends and loved the whole storytelling. Recommend to not watch alone, make sure to not watch at night, its bit scary at the end. One of the best Bollywood has ever come in recent timesz. Too good 😊

The horror-comedy genre, though increasingly popular, demands a delicate balance that many filmmakers struggle to maintain. Kapkapiii, the Hindi remake of the 2023 Malayalam sleeper hit Romancham, is a textbook example of how not to approach this hybrid genre. Lacking in both genuine scares and effective humour, the film quickly loses its footing, becoming a tedious watch.

Set in 2007, the film follows a group of unemployed young men living in a rented house in Faridabad. Their mundane routine takes a turn when two women move in next door. In a bid to impress one of them, Manu (played by Shreyas Talpade) introduces an Ouija board into the mix. To their surprise, the board actually works-soon, a steady stream of locals lines up at their door, seeking answers from the beyond. What begins as a harmless game spirals out of control when the spirit becomes increasingly aggressive. Manu seeks help from his enigmatic friend Kabir (Tusshar Kapoor), unaware that Kabir may bring more chaos than calm. And thus, the film's main narrative begins.

Shreyas Talpade delivers a controlled performance, but the lackluster script and inconsistent direction leave him with little room to shine. Tusshar Kapoor, entering the film post-intermission, shows flashes of comic timing and presence that have been absent from his recent work. Among the supporting cast, Varun Pande is the standout, bringing much-needed energy to an otherwise inert ensemble.

The film's first half meanders aimlessly, relying on clichéd gags and clumsy exposition that neither build suspense nor amuse. Despite a promising setup, the screenplay flounders under the weight of gimmicks. The second half, buoyed briefly by the Talpade-Kapoor dynamic, manages to inject some life into the proceedings but ultimately collapses under its own inconsistency. The climax, poorly conceived and executed, feels like an afterthought.

Visually, Kapkapiii fails to leverage its genre. Horror thrives on atmosphere and tension-both of which are sorely lacking due to uninspired cinematography and a lack of visual cohesion. The music, too, fails to leave an impression, with a jarring item number at the start of the film setting a disjointed tone that never quite recovers.

Director Sangeeth Sivan, in what is his final directorial outing, seems to have aimed for a commercially viable horror-comedy but ends up delivering a confused, lifeless product. Where Romancham found success in its simplicity and relatability, Kapkapiii attempts to compensate with loud humour, cheap thrills, and tired tropes-none of which land effectively.

In the end, Kapkapiii is a missed opportunity-a remake that forgets the core of what made its source material work. With a weak script, uninspired direction, and a failure to evoke either fear or laughter, the film is unlikely to resonate with audiences or critics. Neither spooky nor funny, it vanishes from memory almost as soon as the credits roll.
