Review
It is the first time a murder mystery has been blended into
the Housefull franchise, and this Murder Mystery element should also work. It
has been a while since a murder mystery has come from Bollywood, but Housefull 5 presents a combination
of a murder mystery that is thrilling and maintains a constant smile on face as
the viewer. At the same time, the movie has
such a big cast, so the balance between the actors is probably the biggest USP
of the movie. At the same time, every character has their own style and is funny
in a different way. The second good thing that the director has done is to
present the story and screenplay in such a way that suspicion falls on every
character.
Combination of Thriller and Comedy
Thriller and Comedy are opposite genres to each other, and Tarun
Mansukhani presented this combination beautifully. The movie has a bunch of the
finest comedians, like Akshay Kumar,
Ritesh Deshmukh, and Shreyas Talpade. The comedy timing of all of them
is amazing, with these young stars, the movie also had experienced artists like
Jackie Shroff, Nana Patekar, and Sanjay Dutt, their comedy punches are also good,
where they create a nostalgia with the background score of Khalnayak and dialogues
like ”Choti Bachhi Ho Kya”? adds an element of spoof in the movie and Nana Patekar’s
phugani dance gives an comedy and Abhishek Bachchan’s, Dino Morea, also decent
in their limited screen space.
Acting Performance
Akshaya Kumar was at his best when it came to comedy. He is
terrific after a long we get to see the Alshaya Kumar we want to see. His
comedy timing, punches all were of top quality, his jugalbandi with Ritesh
Deshmukh was top notch. After that, other artists like Nana Patekar, Jackie Shroff, and Sanjay Dutt also justified their
presence with their comedy timing. After a long time, we get to see Fardeen
Khan. He has a good role in the movie, and he has done well. So, as Abhishek
Bachchan and Dino More, and the female leads, including Jacqueline Fernandez,
Sonam Bajwa. Nargis Fakri, Soundarya Sharma, and Chitrangada Singh all are used
just add glamour to the movie.
Direction and Other Aspects
Tarun Mansukhani’s Direction is exceptional. It is always
difficult to manage such a huge cast, but still, he did a commendable job. He
directed a movie after 17 Years, considering that he did a fine job. Production
Value is exceptional, the movie is shot on a huge canvas, and the movie looks beautiful
on the big screen, and the colour grading is also good. BGM is also fine and supports
the theme of the movie
Conclusion
To Summarize. Housefull 5 is a good family entertainer with
a blend of comedy and Murder Mystery, adding a different charm to the movie, except
that a sincere direction, combined with a good enough contribution from actors, makes Housefull 5 a reasoned family movie this weekend.
