Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3

Why would you want to just make same things again in which hero is just playing around and we hear same old song repeatedly. Jokes are mostly not fun. You will find tough to recollect any scene in which you really laughed or got scared.

Clearly this is the result of what happens when you have nothing new to add but want to keep minting money from audience. The second half was also not anything good as I was expecting. The ending was not enough to save this movie by any means and looked like a fatal attempt to do something which could not be stitched properly seamlessly with the story.

Overall please save yourself and rather donate or watch some Netflix rather than this. And we don't need any more sequels of this.

The only thing that carried the entire film were some good jokes, other than good jokes there was no actual creativity in writing like the first part the story kept changing and there were way too many plots to be put in a single film which makes it confusing yet non flowable for viewers, this movie was good for entertainment but there was no actual thrill or anything memorable that a movie should have to be remembered, cinematics were also too over exaggerated, too many scenes were made out of the blue and had no context what so ever, even the acting of a few actors was unwanted and overreacting at some point. I'd recommend this movie to watch only with the purpose of entertainment not a movie sense.

I went into Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 with cautious hopes, especially after the trailer didn't give much to be excited about. But wow, even those low expectations couldn't save me from the disappointment this movie turned out to be.

Story & Direction: Lacking the Charm

Remember the spooky charm and clever storytelling that made Bhool Bhulaiyaa 1 so memorable? Well, that's nowhere to be found here. The plot feels lazy and predictable, with a twist that's so forced it actually made me laugh. It's like the filmmakers just threw in a twist for the sake of it, hoping to cash in on nostalgia without putting in any effort to create something engaging. This is the kind of movie that reminds you how much Bollywood can fall short when it gets too comfortable relying on past successes.

Visuals & VFX: Subpar at Best

Visually, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is a letdown. At times, it genuinely looked like half the film was AI-generated, with backgrounds that felt more like placeholders than actual settings. The VFX is not only underwhelming but oddly cheap for a franchise film. It's almost as if they cut corners at every possible turn, leaving us with something that doesn't even look convincing.

Performances: Just Going Through the Motions

Even the cast seems half-hearted. No standout performances, no real depth-just actors running through their lines without much conviction. It's surprising (and disappointing) to see such a talented cast fall flat, and it's clear that the lack of a solid script didn't help them either.

Music: A Little Saving Grace

If there's one decent moment, it's probably the Ami Je Tomar reprise. I won't say it lives up to the original, but it's one of the rare moments in the film that doesn't feel entirely phoned in. Let's just say it recovers about 6% of my ticket price-a small but needed mercy in a film that otherwise misses the mark completely.

The Final Word

In the end, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is a disappointing attempt to cash in on a beloved franchise without bringing anything new, creative, or even mildly satisfying. It's a shame to see a series that started off so strong get diluted down to this level. Bollywood's overreliance on sequels and spin-offs is really starting to show, and this movie is a prime example of how that approach can backfire.

If you're a fan of the original Bhool Bhulaiyaa, prepare to be let down. It's the kind of movie that makes you wish they had left the franchise alone instead of stretching it beyond its limit.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is the unfortunate result of a franchise that's been stretched too thin. What began as a captivating blend of horror and comedy in the original has now become a lifeless imitation with little to offer. The film tries to revive the magic of the first installment, but instead delivers an uninspired mix of forced humor, predictable scares, and a storyline that feels like it's on autopilot.

The plot is all over the place, meandering from one disjointed scene to another without any real sense of direction. It lacks the clever psychological elements that made the original film so engaging, replacing them with bland, recycled plot points and overused horror cliches. The "twist" is painfully predictable, and when the big reveal finally happens, it's hard to care because the characters have been so poorly developed.

Kartik Aaryan, though charismatic, doesn't bring the same energy as Akshay Kumar did in the original. His character feels more like a caricature than a protagonist, delivering one-liners that fall flat and facing paranormal threats that seem more comical than frightening. Kiara Advani's character is similarly underwhelming, with little to do but serve as a sidekick.

And let's not even get started on the horror elements. The jump scares are more laughable than terrifying, with cheap CGI effects that make you wonder if the film's budget went anywhere near the effects department. Instead of suspense, we get loud sound effects and cringe-worthy "spooky" moments that don't land at all.

In short, "Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3" is a disappointing cash grab, banking on the success of the original but missing everything that made it a classic. Fans of the franchise might want to skip this one to preserve their memories of the first film this one's just not worth it save your time and money take family for lunch & dinner Bhool Bhulaiyaa part one is the best part of this franchise.

November 1, 2024, has brought us two second sequels: Singham 3 and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3. After my disappointment with Singham 3, I was hoping Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 might offer the comic relief and freshness the action flick sorely lacked. Unfortunately, it ended up being just another 2 hours, 38 minutes, 750 rupees, and several brain cells wasted.

The original Bhool Bhulaiyaa stood out for its clever storytelling, thanks to Priyadarshan's deft direction and a cast that brought depth to a grounded psychological thriller. It remains iconic not only for its suspense but for its genuine humor and tension.

While I wasn't a fan of the second installment-and Bollywood's trend of pseudo-sequels rarely impresses-Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 actually makes the second movie look decent in comparison. This third entry is entirely unnecessary, lacking any semblance of genuine acting, humor, or originality.

The film suffers from a predictable, recycled plot, cringe-worthy performances, and cheap jump scares that are more ear-piercing than frightening. And to top it all off, the ending reveal is, to say the least, absurd-a last-ditch attempt at a twist that falls flat and only adds to the ridiculousness. Not a single moment compels or even amuses; it's just a tedious rehash of tropes and tired slapstick that never lands.

To put it simply, this movie shouldn't have been made. Now that it exists, my only request: please, let's stop here.
