Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3

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 in with a lot of expectations after watching the trailer of this movie. I was happy to see some old characters back. But this movie's plot was totally different. Not linked with the first movie at all. Scenes kept on changing and there was no continuity in this film. Poor dialogues and over acting with annoying background music was too much to digest. The first half of the movie is a disaster and I felt like leaving the theater. The only relief was the little bit comedy in the script. In short please don't go and waste your money on watching this poorly written film. Bhool bhulaiya 1 had a great story with great acting and the horror part was really on point. But this 3rd installment is not at all a horror genre.

Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 tries to channel the spirit of its predecessors but ends up wandering down a winding path filled with missed opportunities and cringe-worthy moments. Imagine a horror-comedy that forgot its script in the fridge-chilly, stale, and way past its expiration date.

First off, let's talk about the screenplay. It seems like the writers took a few notes from the "How to Stretch a Plot" handbook, adding unnecessary subplots that make you question if you accidentally walked into a different movie. Just when you think the main story might kick in, we're sidetracked by distractions that even the characters seem to forget about. The humor, intended to be the film's saving grace, often feels forced, like a dad joke at a family gathering. "Is this supposed to be funny?" becomes the unifying sentiment of the audience, as we collectively shake our heads in disbelief.

Character development? More like character neglect. With one-dimensional roles that would barely pass for cardboard cutouts, it's hard to find any reason to root for these characters. They stumble through the plot like they're lost in a haunted house, searching for the exit but only finding poorly written dialogues. When the most compelling character is the ghost that could have at least livened things up, you know you're in trouble.

Now let's address the pacing. It feels like the film is auditioning for a marathon, dragging certain scenes out to the point where you wonder if you've accidentally entered a time warp. And just when you think a comedic moment might land, it crashes harder than a poorly timed joke at a funeral. The tonal shifts are about as smooth as a brick wall, leaving the audience in a constant state of confusion. Are we laughing? Crying? Are we even watching the same film?

The so-called comedic trio of Rajpal Yadav, Sanjay Mishra, and Ashwini Kalsekar adds to the chaos with their brand of slapstick nonsense that feels less like comic relief and more like a desperate attempt to fill airtime. Their antics are about as funny as stepping on a LEGO-painful and utterly bewildering. Yadav's trademark silliness seems out of place, often turning potentially clever setups into cringe-fests that would make even a seasoned comedian wince. Meanwhile, Mishra's over-the-top expressions and Kalsekar's attempts at physical comedy frequently miss the mark, leaving us with the feeling that we've signed up for a clown convention instead of a horror-comedy film.

Visually, the film has its moments, but many scenes feel like a retread of every horror trope in the book. The predictable scares are like seeing your old high school crush at a reunion-familiar, but ultimately disappointing. When the special effects look like they belong in a low-budget web series, you can't help but wonder if they ran out of budget before they could afford some originality.

In conclusion, Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 is a sequel that stumbles along with a misplaced sense of direction. It's like a party where the snacks are stale, the music is off-key, and the host forgot to invite anyone. If you're looking for a film that captures the charm and wit of the earlier entries, you might want to reconsider your options. Otherwise, grab some popcorn, settle in, and prepare for a cinematic experience that'll leave you scratching your head and wondering what just happened.

Using the same dialogues and unnecessary drama which do not make you laugh at all. Only a few jokes are actually good. The story is good but the writers have dragged the screen time with unnecessary scenes. I wasn't actually expecting the plot twist at the end. Describing it as a horror comedy is something that will confuse the audience as there is no horror but horrible comedy. Could be a good example of nice story but terrible execution. I hate spoiling stories so there will be no spoilers but I'd say that if you get too scared to watch a horror movie then you can easily watch this as this is not even scary as the original bhool bhulaiya. Madhuri and Vidya Balan are as always Fabulous with their scripts but Kartik Aaryan seems too forced doing comedy.

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.
