Limeracal

How is that a show with a good plot, decent acting, good direction makes it such a slow burn. The series has a good but predictable storyline, and is gripping at times. But what is the most annoying is that it is sooo slow. This show has 10 episodes but it could've easily done well in 6. The back stories of the characters are good but integrated poorly. One scene would be absolutely gripping and then randomly cut to a back story which had absolutely no connection. Those random cuts in the scenes are so jarring and takes away from the viewing experience.

The actors have played their parts well. The cinematography is beautiful as well, capturing the hilly montages perfectly. If only they had edited out the silly backstories and made the plot line more tight, it would've been brilliant . The story inherently is quite engaging but takes too long to get to the point. I was forwarding all the backstory portions because they contributed nothing to the plot line.

Overall a decent series which could have done with lesser runtime and edits.

Before going for this movie, I was 100% sure, the reviews out there are paid. Probably cause as audiences we've been subjected to a lot of cringe comedies over the years! I was humbled real quick, cause this movie is actually worth the praise.

Kunal khemu's directorial debut is witty and outrageous. It starts off slow but quickly picks up pace. It is a run-of-the-mill story about a trio making their ultimate trip to goa, and getting entangled with the local drug overlords. Nothing new about the story , but it is how organically the movie integrates comedy which stands out. The jokes written are situational and not over the top comedy tropes which most cringe comedy movies use. The camaraderie and dialogue delivery between the trio is top notch! The supporting cast was amazingly integrated as well. I had times where I was laughing out loud at the cleverly written dialogues. There were some gags which were slapstick but majority of the movie was witty comedy. This movie is on the lines of comedies like go goa gone, Delhi belly; a very easy family entertainer.

For a first time director I think Kunal has executed his vision to perfection. Definitely worth a watch, if you can catch it in the theatres. Will probably rewatch it on ott as well, some of the one liners are comic gold!

Karan johar has really brought it this time! This is such an underrated movie.

This is the kind of family entertainer we didn't know we needed. I honestly went into it with zero expectation, but was pleasantly surprised how easily I got hooked. The casting, the songs, the glamour , the drama peppered with a little bit of humor. Ranveer really sells it as Rocky Randhawa, the kind of endearing goof who quickly grows on the viewers. His over-the -top antics feel oddly genuine and its a treat to watch. Alia as Rani is gorgeous and fierce, balancing out Rocky's craziness. Their chemistry is on point as well!

The sets and the songs will remind you of grandeur , true KJo style sans the archaic thought process. The movie questions social norms in a very organic manner, never appearing overtly preachy (except in a couple of scenes). The supporting cast is perfect as well! Albeit the long run time, there wasn't honestly anything to complain about. And since the movie is fun to watch, there was always something funny/engrossing/outrageous happening. A true family entertainer, with a very good message. Definitely worth a rewatch!
