Murder Mubarak

Unfortunately, the movie is not giving that much scope to Pankaj Tripathi to showcase his unbeatable acting talent...Because of the heaviest multi-star movie, ruined and ate all frames and scenes of him & The movie is too much slower or longer. In every scene, they create confusion rather than giving clarity on the plot. And the other star cast is unnecessarily stuffed everywhere. Not a single actor has a better story to tell on screen. Every actor's talent is wasted...

Sara Ali Khan has to mend her ways or better chose a different profession as it's futile to say ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT A GOLD... One thing is for sure that Rich people eat rich people...

Genuinely, so disappointed after watching this so-called murder mystery. Which is more confusing than mysterious...

The trailer was...intriguing; a fun murder mystery to watch, the likes of which have been dime-a-dozen; but, very reminiscent of the Sandler-Aniston Murder Mystery films/Knives Out franchise/Poirot-Trilogy. KO1 was OK, all the others varied from so-so to disappointing.

So, I don't know if it's because I went in with low expectations, but...I actually didn't mind the film. Good? Not really. Bad? Also not really.

There were a couple things that the film did, that was different from all of the films above, which made me take a step back and thought "Oh, okay, I didn't expect that." The film also some social commentary that you won't necessarily expect from a comedy-thriller, but take that for whatever it's worth.

I personally thought that the film is bring really criticized, it's not as bad as the internet is making it out to be. Negatives though - too many things happening at the same time, you don't necessarily care for the characters as much; the film was also on the longer side for a murder-comedy of this tone.

If you have nothing else to watch, check it. Not good but there are some positives/Not bad but there are some negatives.

The movie has a unique style, an eerie set, but was extremely slow where the viewer might want to press the imaginary accelerator to urge the movie to go faster. The dialogues were just not impactful but Pankaj Tripathi tried his hardest to give life to it. Actors like Dimple Kapadia was not used well, as a matter of fact, most movies casting her now a days don't use her well unfortunately!

The screenplay needed a lot of work. The script needed a lot of editing and the movie felt like one of the first iterations of the script before starting to trim it. It didn't have the in-between tense escalations a suspense movie needs.

The writing should have been crisp and neat. Each scene just went meh, and there was no big impactful scene to help us sit through the slow pace of the movie.

I watched it till the end just to know how how it ends and if there is atleast a sensible ending. It could have been a great film!

The screen age of Vijay Varma and his screen mother is the same. Both look like they're in their 40s, in fact Grusha Kapoor looks a year or two younger

The entire film functions on the same level of absurdity in every aspect. Everyone is strangely blasé about the murder and police but they all have their secrets

Apparently Sara and Vijay are the same age, and she was taller than him when younger. I have absolutely no idea how old Sara is supposed to be in this scenario. Are they both 25? Are they both 45?

Either way, the film is kind of fun, even if it is super shallow. No idea why its listed as horror though.

Overall its a pleasant watch, has interesting characters, and the mystery is decently cloaked till the end.

I watched "Murder Mubarak" recently, and despite the presence of talented actors like Pankaj Tripathi, Dimple Kapadia, Karishma Kapoor, Tisca Chopra, and Sanjay Kapoor, the film was a letdown. It's disheartening to see such capable artists not being utilized to their full potential. The director missed the mark in harnessing their abilities, which could have elevated the movie significantly. The narrative lacked the intrigue and suspense expected from a thriller, and the pacing was inconsistent. While the cinematography and soundtrack were above a average, they were not enough to compensate for the film's shortcomings. Overall, I'd rate it a 4 out of 10 for the wasted opportunity to create something memorable with such a stellar cast.
