Double Ismart

This movie falls short in several areas, starting with its plot and characters, which come across as silly and poorly developed. There's no proper connection to the prequel, making it feel disjointed for fans who were expecting continuity. The narration is loud and grating, which only adds to the overall unpleasant experience. Much of the film is uninteresting and boring, with the few moments that try to stand out instead coming off as cringe-worthy.

Ram, as expected, gives his best performance. He does what he can with the material he's given, but even his efforts can't lift the movie out of mediocrity. Sanjay Dutt is unfortunately underutilized and doesn't get the opportunity to showcase his abilities. Kavya Thapar brings some visual appeal to the film, but her role lacks depth. Ali's comedy, which might have been a saving grace, ends up being more irritating than entertaining.

The music fails to leave a lasting impression, and the direction feels outdated, lacking the freshness or creativity needed to engage a modern audience. Given all these factors, this movie is not one I would recommend. It's better to skip this one and look for something more worthwhile.

Horrible movie from puri, movie is really bad and ali's character is so degraded . Pure 2 hours of torture. Over all very bad experience watching this movie. Absolutely not recommended to watch with family. No proper screen play and there is no logic and meaning in the story. Extreme vulgar vocabulary used in the movie which is not at all comfortable. Waste of time. Movies are for relaxation and this movie do not serve the purpose at at metre. Sanjay dutt is an excellent actor from bollywood but I feel he is not utilized as per his caliber. There is complete absence of audio management throughout the film.

I don't know how I'm still alive after watching this movie. It's such a terrible film, completely illogical. The story is awful and the direction is even worse. The movie is never serious at any point, and the action scenes are so illogical that I couldn't help but laugh at them. What's even worse is that this is supposed to be a sequel to the 2019 movie "iSmart Shankar," where Shankar had Arun's (movie character) memory in his brain, but there's no mention of that memory in this movie. The movie includes a forced comedy character just to add some unnecessary humor. It's a complete WASTE OF TIME that I've already wasted.... The only good thing about the movie is Sanjay Dutt, and that's it.

Unsure if Puri himself reads this review. I have always admired Puri for his dialogues and story telling. However, this movie was a hard watch. Glad that I skimmed it through on Amazon prime. Second half is painful. I don't know why they introduced Pragathi as old pochamma. The character lacks depth. There is no detail in character sketching and the plot is wafer thin. Ali's comedy is funny but he uses derogatory language often. Ram is too loud and he often uses filthy language as well. Sanjay dutt is wasted. Unsure why he is casted in the first place. I would request Puri to focus on the characterisation and the plot. Unwanted action sequences and unreal events are no longer appreciated by the audience.

Bad storyline, bad direction, no meaning, over actions, cringe comedy which is not funny, too loud music. The team should watch the movies with their families before releasing it to public. Only then they'll understand how bad the movie is.

Indian directors make high impact on immature public mindset. By watching movies like this people think it's completely normal to look at women as objects. Everyone knows how much puri jaganath is obsessed with women, s*x and mafia. It's high time his movies should get banned.

When incidents against women occur people tend to blame government for weak punishments. No one talks about the impact of such movies on people. Actively or passively movies like this are responsible for such actions.

Every scene contains atleast one dialogue, hand action, gestures that objectify women. I wonder how movies like this gets license to showcase for public.
