Housefull 3
Critic reviews and ratings
-
...is mad, irreverent and funny.
-
...purely a 'leave-your-brains-behind' affair.
-
...has all the constituents of an archetypal Hindi masala movie with hilarity, absurdity, humour, gags and punches in abundance.
-
You enter a theatre expecting the film to be silly and absurd. And even then, you end up laughing in amazement at the level of nonsense that it reaches.
-
...makes you wonder to whom is this juvenile revival targeted..
-
Sajid-Farhad had ample opportunities to make a genuinely campy situational comedy but bungled it.
-
The charm of Housefull 3, whatever little that is, lies in its mindless comedy.
-
...offensive, frequently racist, and flat out harebrained...
-
...mindless tale, often hitting dead-ends from where there can be no return to sanity.
-
...taking the audience lightly with lazy scripting, skating along instead on the charisma and goofiness of its central male star, goodwill for many of the remaining cast members and occasional patches of witty absurdity.
-
...the directors have produced a tight comedy that skips along, but it’s Akshay Kumar who saves the day.
-
...the jokes are consistently limp.
-
...they only go on to prove that if laughter is the best medicine, this film will make you beg for euthanasia.
-
The filmmakers have aimed to deliver a puerile movie, and, in fact, will be offended by any discussion about Housefull 3 that does not involve its box office prospects.
-
All the elements of the Housefull formula are in place—jokes about the differently abled, demeaning people of colour, female characters who are bimbos...
-
Ritesh Deshmukh can see. Abhishek Bachchan can talk. Akshay Kumar can walk. And I, somehow, survived Housefull 3. That, ladies and gentleman, is the real miracle.
-
For what it's worth, I'd consider it a positive that I didn't find it too much of a torture.
-
Housefull 3’s brighter moments are owed to Akshay Kumar and fleetingly by Jackie Shroff – for the rest it’s all puerile silliness.
-
...you are so deadened by the unfunny situational comedy unfolding in front that you just wait it out, let the movie die its slow painful death.
-
...the film discovers new depths to sink itself into.
-
...bawdy jokes, unfunny gags, dull, humourless one-liners — all getting passed off for comedy, that too as they struggle to include jokes on racism and the differently-abled.
-
Nothing works.
-
Me to brain : leaving you behind for a bit, don’t mind.
