Love Hostel

The synopsis can give an idea to readers that the film is about love jihad and the problems it causes for couples. The director made Gurgaon earlier which was a raw and real convincing film. The setting is authentic here too and relatable. Movie begins on a decent note and establishes tension. But the sub plot is really weak and completely details the film. Seems like it has just been put to make the film a thriller but falls flat. Bobby deol's character(looks like mix of javier bardem in no country for old men and hathoda tyagi) could have been a great villain, but what he keeps doing repeatedlt without any police action make it one of the most illogical aspects of the film. Some characters like brother, cop are nicely acted. Vikrant has acted decently and shows good range. Sanya's character could have been developed more. But, Story becomes unbearable by the end. Ending is very unconvincing and back stories don't work too. Disappointed to see this film!

All the badassery and headshots aside, this is a pretty depressing series and the message it is trying to convey doesn't come through clean.

Has a few well acted brilliant moments.

Acting, setup & direction is really good but the story has so many plotholes that it becomes unbearable in the end. I was praying the leads get killed before anybody else gets killed.

Bobby Deol looks good but murders everywhere, like in a Baraat, hotel, lawyers home - no media, no attention, seriously?? His character ate up all the suspense & tension built before. Why is he literally killing everything that moves!!!!

The girl is a CA in Delhi but they don't plan to elope to other city, rather stay in a safehouse inaugurated by her own Grandmom, who is supposed to be an MLA!!

They're themselves running for their lives but piling up new people like the guy's mom and her sister. What sort of stupidity is this yaar??

The way the couple was fighting like kids, had immature eloping plan or ran away despite one is a CA & other is a shopkeeper involved with criminal activities- really makes you think what you're trying to glorify for upcoming generations!

My Rating : 2/10.

Why are movies like this even made? There's nothing going for this movie, while it is directed well in some parts the storyline is nothing unique and totally bland.

Lacks substance and while the actors have done their job for their pay check, the writers have absolutely missed the mark on this and just filled it with a one-dimensional villain shooting everyone and everything in sight.

Very disappointing.

After hearing some positive reviews I sat to watch the new Zee5 release Love Hostel, but after fishing the film I'll say I'm totally disappointed. The only good thing is that it's very engaging, you'll not bore for one moment and you'll love our two leads and that's it. Now, there is absolutely nothing new in terms of story, the same old story that we all have seen from childhood.

The only difference is that they've added too much blood and violence in it & that's also not new as this is now trending. In today's time, a strong villain is not just enough to make a good film, there should be some reasons for their doings. That's the reason I didn't like any of the villainous character. Also some scenes were disturbing to watch. And lastly the climax converted the film from a below average to a bad film.

So finally, I'll not recommend this movie.
