Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety
Critic reviews and ratings
-
...entertains as well as packs a solid punch.
-
Despite the odds, this bromance vs romance comedy works as an exciting guessing game to predict who’ll end up as the third wheel — best friend or girlfriend?
-
Although it feels misogynistic to paint women the way they have in the film, it is so delightful and frothy and fun, you come away smiling.
-
It could be easily be called as the third instalment of Punchnama series, but bromance brewing in it makes it a good watch this weekend.
-
It's seeti-maar stuff, totally.
-
The film has sharp, witty dialogue, and it's these which make you laugh the most...
-
...has a strange kind of earnestness in its juvenile ambitions. I was uncomfortable with its decidedly women-bashing stand, but I enjoyed the film’s silly, relentless humor.
-
It was in 2011 that Ranjan first came out with a “male perspective” on the man-woman relationship in a middle class, urban scenario in Pyaar Ka Punchnama. It reached out to many. Would SKTKS now become the Bible for an entire generation of young men? Seems so.
-
Pedestrian wit works best around actors who don't just go with the flow, but shape it to suit their comical timing. That's the difference between performers and parrots. But the underwhelming leads of Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety don't seem to know the difference at all.
-
If you want some unabashed ‘boy’ fun in a movie that gets juvenile in due course then Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety might be your date though it’s not a ‘date’ movie.
-
...provides some laughs, some of which escape involuntarily. But it also leaves you wondering. Can Ranjan grow up his callow characters? Of course, he can, because he has the smarts (remember Pyar Ka Punchnama?). Does he really want to? I’m not sure. Sharp comedy of the sexes is the hard stuff. Cheap laughs are easy.
-
The disposable soft-focus songs and foreign locations cannot gild the coarseness of Ranjan’s view of modern romance.
-
To begin with the premise of characters manipulating their friends and significant others is not very engaging.
-
Those familiar with Ranjan's oeuvre know where this is headed.
-
Another Luv Ranjan film, aka some mild laughs buried in a mountain of misogyny.
-
...juvenile bromance versus romance drama...
-
The one thing that worked for Pyaar Ka Punchnama films was the relatability, even if it was restricted to guys-only discussions. Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety doesn’t have that, nor is it funny.
-
It is possible that Ranjan may make a better film some day, once he recovers from his raging hatred towards women and realises that in giving vent to that feeling, he is also repeatedly portraying men as manipulable fools and cowards.
