Thank God

Thank God is a comedy which fails to deliver. The film despite being a comedy barely makes you laugh. In fact, it get can so boring at times that you just wish for the scene to end and another scene to come up. The audience expects Siddharth to get in the accident really quickly but it depends a little too much time to get to the accident scene. The audience just gets bored at this point.

Ajay Devgn is the only one who entertains you. Siddharth Malhotra tries but it doesn't work.

This film is the type of film which needs to give the audience a reason to stay and watch the whole film. Thank God does not do that though. The audience just gets bored after a while which isn't good.

If you are bored and have nothing to do, watch this film however I wouldn't recommend you to watch it expecting it to be great.

I wasn't expecting much other than entertainment and a few laughs from the movie. Initially, the premise of the movie seems interesting but the execution just average. As the movie progress, the plot becomes interesting and the story shows some depth. By the end, the movie comes off as not great but definitely good. Performances are great on the part of Ajay and rakul, while Siddhartha's not so much. A couple of tracks are good and will make you groove to them. Considering other things, the screenplay is okayish, editing good and the use of vfx is not bad either. All in all, it's definitely worth one watch.

I never expected Thank God to be a great film and it is not. In fact , it is a very shallow level film with many flaws . Yet i felt it was a nice feel good film with good lessons learning journey.

The lessons it teaches us are very basic ones and one that every one from your family can easily resonate with. Also, it gives these lessons in very interesting ways... how? ...So basically, in Siddharth (named Ayaan in film) is a greedy small minded person who meets with an accident and is up in heaven in front of CG apparantly Chitragupta and Yamdoot who give him one last chance to redeem himself in order for him to survive. CG (Ajay Devgn) connects various events in Sids life in a very surprise reveal or twisty style to give him life lessons and this is what I found really interesting.

In fact there is one final twist at the end which maybe predictable for many but still was quite interestingly blended with the film. The game show like screenplay makes sure i was always invested in the film with no boring moments.

Ajay Devgn is another big positive about this film. His call and often swaggy nature made his parts extremely interesting.

These above factors make the film very much watchable but of course i said its not a great film.

Siddharth Malhotra after a terrific Shershaah falls flat in this film. "Thank God" Ajay Devgn was there in this film otherwise it would have been a bigger washout . Sid is hammy. He can't crack jokes properly. He is still not a very polished actor.

VFX is often not good but that's all you can expect from a film with not very high budget.

Indra Kumar, the Dhamaal / Masti man, is still not very matured as a director. His direction and treatment still feels stuck in the early 2000s but atleast this time he didn't make a cringy film. His films are well known for comedy but that's exactly what went missing in the film. Whatever comedy was there in the film was already shown in the trailer (in fact i would say the entire first half was shown in the trailer) and it barely works in the film . However, if one notes Indra Kumar's interview, he himself claimed he did not make this film as an out an out comedy but atleast whatever was there should have worked but sadly it doesn't.

Songs..umm..nah forget them. Maybe that Dil De Diya is something i love till now.

Overall, i am sure critics will bash this film and such films don't deserve to be watched with critical eyes. These are "just chill and enjoy" type of films. Also, it's not an out and out comedy so don't go in expecting a lol ride, it's actually more of a emotional life lesson / moral story kind of film. Last but not the least, what i liked was that it kept the lessons short and simple and not like some 15 mins speech that many Ayushman Khurrana films have. All lessons are given in just 30 secs and some of it is quite impactful.

Loved sid malhotra's acting.... Ajay devgan was as always good.... Movie is a family movie and entertaining... Everyone should watch it with family.... A family packed movie.... People will have fun watching it... Ajay devgan and sid malhotra combination was a bang.... 😌 Sid malhotra has improved a lot for sure.... After shershah this is a good movie... Sid is in the well path of choosing movies now... Ajay devgan was a perfect choice for the role... And nora fatehi and sid manike song was go good to watch on theatre... People were clapping when that song came to screen.... If you love family entertaining movies gi watch it...

Thank God a nice film! It has a decent storyline,good acting done by Siddhharth Malhotra, Ajay Devgan and Rakul. It's a feel good film and leaves a meaningful message at the end. The ending was a little unpredictable and ultimately surprising. Great sets and special effects , so it's worth a watch in theatres as I think that people should come to watch it instead of watching it on OTT platforms as It's not necessary for a film to be flawless and have great VFX or story so that it's worth a watch in theatres. Simple films like Thank God also deserves to be watched on big screens. Thank God is 4/5 for me.
