Murder Mubarak

I am a great fan of "WHUDUNIT" and this movie has a great premise. Show everyone with some motive ,entangle the stories ,provide a spicy cop character, voila the movie recipe is ready. Murder mubarak however fails in engagement despite of suceeding in recipe and engagement is garnishing it makes movie appealing, so in that sense the movie is not appealing enough.

Sara faulters big time in her role of BAMBI ..so much that when the climax comes you don't care how she is feeling! Vijaya verma is underutilized as wakil shaheb, the saving grace in cameo is dimple. Pankaj tripathi sprinkles a glittery visual in the form of cop, he is good but again tell me the last time when he was not good. This is just an average movie with lot of potential.

This movie we could have been a great success. The cast was huge & great. Sad they couldn't make a better use of every actor. Sara ali doesn't have any expression on her face. A plain blank face. For me it was unnecessarily stretched. Mystery wasn't enough. And the investigation wasn't interesting Enough. I was looking forward to this movie but it turned out very disappointing. Main lead selection was bad.

Pankaj ji was great as always, very natural in his role. He is the only reason I finished watching it. Karishma Kapoor's character wasn't interesting enough. Overall it's an average movie..

The trailer was...intriguing; a fun murder mystery to watch, the likes of which have been dime-a-dozen; but, very reminiscent of the Sandler-Aniston Murder Mystery films/Knives Out franchise/Poirot-Trilogy. KO1 was OK, all the others varied from so-so to disappointing.

So, I don't know if it's because I went in with low expectations, but...I actually didn't mind the film. Good? Not really. Bad? Also not really.

There were a couple things that the film did, that was different from all of the films above, which made me take a step back and thought "Oh, okay, I didn't expect that." The film also some social commentary that you won't necessarily expect from a comedy-thriller, but take that for whatever it's worth.

I personally thought that the film is bring really criticized, it's not as bad as the internet is making it out to be. Negatives though - too many things happening at the same time, you don't necessarily care for the characters as much; the film was also on the longer side for a murder-comedy of this tone.

If you have nothing else to watch, check it. Not good but there are some positives/Not bad but there are some negatives.

Unfortunately, the movie is not giving that much scope to Pankaj Tripathi to showcase his unbeatable acting talent...Because of the heaviest multi-star movie, ruined and ate all frames and scenes of him & The movie is too much slower or longer. In every scene, they create confusion rather than giving clarity on the plot. And the other star cast is unnecessarily stuffed everywhere. Not a single actor has a better story to tell on screen. Every actor's talent is wasted...

Sara Ali Khan has to mend her ways or better chose a different profession as it's futile to say ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT A GOLD... One thing is for sure that Rich people eat rich people...

Genuinely, so disappointed after watching this so-called murder mystery. Which is more confusing than mysterious...

The movie has a unique style, an eerie set, but was extremely slow where the viewer might want to press the imaginary accelerator to urge the movie to go faster. The dialogues were just not impactful but Pankaj Tripathi tried his hardest to give life to it. Actors like Dimple Kapadia was not used well, as a matter of fact, most movies casting her now a days don't use her well unfortunately!

The screenplay needed a lot of work. The script needed a lot of editing and the movie felt like one of the first iterations of the script before starting to trim it. It didn't have the in-between tense escalations a suspense movie needs.

The writing should have been crisp and neat. Each scene just went meh, and there was no big impactful scene to help us sit through the slow pace of the movie.

I watched it till the end just to know how how it ends and if there is atleast a sensible ending. It could have been a great film!
