First let's talk about the Rohit Shetty cop universe's latest and multi-starrer film Singham Again. The length of the film is 2 hours 24 minutes. Frontpage Insights has rated this crime drama film 3.5 out of 5 stars.
What is the story of the film? The story of the film is inspired from Ramayana. The story starts from Kashmir. DCP Bajirao Singham catches Umar Hafeez (Jackie Shroff). Singham's (Ajay Devgan) wife Avni (Kareena Kapoor) is kidnapped by a fearsome criminal named Zubair (Arjun Kapoor).
Zubair and Umar have a connection, which makes it a revenge game. As Lord Sri Rama goes to Lanka to save Mother Sita from the clutches of Ravana. Similarly, DCP Bajirao Singham also reaches Zuber's whereabouts to save his wife Avni.
Suryavanshi (Akshay Kumar), Simba (Ranveer Singh), Satya Bali (Tiger Shroff) and Shakti Shetty (Deepika Padukone) come to support Singham in this fight. You have to watch the movie to know how Singham manages to save his wife from that clutch.
How is the acting of the star cast? Ajay Devgn once again dominates the role of Bajirao Singham. His dialogue delivery is amazing. Ranveer Singh's funny avatar will be loved by the audience. Tiger Shroff's high action sequences are also seen here. Arjun Kapoor is also looking strong in the role of the villain. Akshay Kumar's cameo is also impressive. Finally Chulbul Pandey (Salman Khan) also arrives. His cameo makes the film longer.
How is the direction of the film? Rohit Shetty has made this film visually very good. The scene where Ranveer Singh's villain Simba burns Zuber's territory can be heard clapping. The way Hanumanji burned Lanka to save Mother Sita will be remembered after watching this scene.
Certain scenes definitely look a little childish. Otherwise Rohit Shetty has tried to keep the film crisp for the most part, so that the audience doesn't get bored.
Music of the film how is it The background music of the film suits the sequences. The songs are also good. All the songs fit the context as the subject of the film.
Final verdict, to watch or not to watch? The film is a high voltage action drama. Action movie lovers will definitely love it. It being the time of Diwali, the entire story of the film is inspired by Ramayana. At this time, such films become a must watch.
Apart from this, many big actors including Ajay Devgn, Akshay Kumar, Ranveer Singh, Tiger Shroff have been seen in this film and on top of that, Salman Khan is also seen. This can prove to be a big treat for the audience.
Movie Review Bhoolbhoolaiyya 3
Kartik Aryan, Madhuri Dixit, Vidya Balan and Tripti Dimri starrer 'Bhool Bhulaiyya-3' has released. The length of the film is 2 hours 38 minutes. Frontpage Insights has rated this horror comedy genre film 3 out of 5 stars.
What is the story of the film? The story begins with a kingdom called Raktoghat in ancient Bengal. There is a royal court. The song 'Aami Je Tomar' plays in the background. A woman keeps dancing on this song. Then the king arrives with his bodyguards, and burns the woman alive.
The story begins exactly 200 years after that event. Ruh Baba (Karthik Aryan) along with one of his friends works to cheat people in the name of getting rid of ghosts. Then he meets Meera (Tripti Dimri). Meera lures Rooh Baba with money and leads him to bloodshed. When Rooh reaches Baba's palace, he discovers new secrets.
He came to know that the soul of a witch named Manjulika resides in this palace. He wants to avenge her death. Just then Mallika (Vidya Balan) and Mandira (Madhuri Dixit) enter. The activity of both is like Manjulika. Both of them fall behind Ruhan i.e. Rooh Baba.
He feels that it was Ruhan who killed Manjulika in her previous birth. However, a big secret is revealed at the end, which completely changes the story. Now you have to watch the movie to know this secret.
How is the acting of the star cast? Like 'Bhool Bhulaiya 2', this time also Karthik Aryan has managed to make an impact in the character of Ruh Baba. He reminds Akshay Kumar in many scenes. From his comic timing to his fear acting, everything seemed natural. This time his character is a bit different and challenging than before.
Better work could have been taken from Madhuri Dixit and Vidya Balan. Here it is especially important to talk about Vidya. Not even half of the work he did in the first half of 'Bhool Bhulaiya' is shown here. She also looks tired on screen. Tripti Dimri's body has received more attention than her performance. Vijay Raaz, Sanjay Mishra and Rajpal Yadav's work in the supporting cast is average.
How is the direction? The story is good, but the screen play is scattered. The way the story is written, director Anees Bazmee has failed to bring it to the screen. The first half of the role has ended. The story definitely takes an interesting turn after the interval.
Vidya Balan, the first lady of the 'Bhool Bhulaiya' franchise, is shown to be completely ineffective. A better job could have been done from a veteran actress like Madhuri Dixit. While watching the film, one wonders why his character was included? Tripti Dimri i.e. Meera's dressing does not suit the story and character of the film at all. Much attention has been paid to making her look unnecessarily glamorous. Vijay Raj, Sanjay Mishra and Rajpal Yadav are not given good dialogues.
The most positive point of the film is its climax. The director has managed to keep the audience engaged in the last few scenes.
Music of the film how is it Songs of T-series movies are good. The music of the previous films in the 'Bhool Bhulaiya' franchise was also good. However, this time the performance of the music department has not been good. Except for one or two songs, not a single song counts.
The final verdict, to watch or not to watch? This part is weaker than the previous two films. However, the film definitely picks up pace at some places. At some places it will make you laugh out loud. In some scenarios you may also be forced to hold your stomach.
If you have plenty of time this Diwali and are a fan of horror comedy films, then 'Bhool Bhulaiyya 3' is a must watch. Especially the teenage group may like this movie more. Apart from this Karthik Aryan also has a lot of popularity, this can be a good treat for his fans.
