Phone Bhoot

Movies like Phone Bhoot are rare from Bollywood. With a multicultural region of India, focussing on a script like this is tough. I feel, Gurmmeet Singh handled it really good. The cast is amazing. Ishaan and Siddhant should be applauded for their comedy roles.

The plot is quite simple and the ending a little anti-climactic. But that doesn't take away from the fun ride that is this movie. It's a horror comedy cum buddy comedy. And these are rare. I have seen this movie being compared to multiple other movies especially, Ghostbusters. And of course that can be drawn. It's because this movie spoofs the others. The music was fun too. Love the songs. Especially, Nidhi, Ishan, and Siddhant dancing to Kali Teri. With pop culture references being made really good, I enjoyed this movie throughout.

Of course this could have been better. The movie does lose the plot a bit towards the end. The end was quite anti-climactic. And the sequel pull could have been set a lil better. Some jokes didn't land the right way.

Having said that, I watched this movie thrice. Once at the theatres and twice after renting it on Prime Video. And I enjoyed it every time. Please ignore the low ratings and baseless negative review and enjoy the movie, currently available on Prime Video for rent. Or wait till it's available in the catalogue. Relax and enjoy this fun ride of Phone Bhoot.

The movie is nothing but total madness

Real gutsy guys are the story writer, director ,and producer who made such a movie...at this age of ott where content is the king and daily we see new content coming up how can one dare to make this madness..the excel Gang has made such good and unique contents like Fukrey inside edge etc

The only good thing to see in this madness are the two guys Siddhant and ishaan both played very well even their character and make up was very good along with the evil aesthetics which enhanced their character

Some scenes and dialogues were really funny but why the makers didn't made the entire movie funny rather than showing ugly characters of Jackie sheeba and others

I think today's kids will also not like this.

Film Review: Phone Bhooth #sanjuzzreviews #phonebhoot #IshaanKhatter #SidhantChaturvedi #katrinakaif #JackieShroff 2 losers Ishaan Khattar ( Gullu) & Sidhant Chaturvedi( Major) team up with a friendly Bhatakti Aatma ( Ragini) Katrina as the Desi Ghostbusters. However the Ragini has an agenda of her own. There is also an evil tantric ( Aatmaram) Jackie Shroff who is jealous of their success & trying to get rid of them with his army of ghosts. Will our bungling duo outwit the villains and be victorious in the end is what this film is all about.

Kudos to the makers for attempting something different. The camaraderie between the protagonists is decent, though they are a bit loud at times.

However there aren't many lol moments in the film which is a travesty when u r attempting a film in the horror-comedy genre. Jackie as tantric Aatmaram is funny with his "bhidu" type one-liners. Ending is quite predictable which again lets you down.

What I liked are the references to old horror films like the Ramsey's and some well executed slapstick comedy scenes which invoke spontaneous laughter. Unfortunately there aren't many of these!!

A good attempt by makers to try something new. Not as bad as Roohi, yet ...not as good as Stree!!

Will give it a 2.5/5 ... Adios🙂

What a horrible movie. Cheap dialogues. Cheap comedy. Katrina Kaif is just a waste of space. Dont know why ppl keep glorifying her.

Such movies dont deserve a single star. The 2 child actors also have wasted their talent. All in a total waste of time and a bad movie.

The comedy is not worth it. Jackie Shroff as usual is bad as it can be.

Sometimes I wonder if these movies are made just to launder illegitimate funds. Bad would be an understatement for this kovie. Report this movie if it comes out on OTT. When will bollywood filmmakers stop making fools out of audienxes.

There is not a single scary element. I had to walk out of the theatre post interval.

The subject of ghost busters is good and different and even better when dealt as a horror comedy instead of serious or drama but subject is not delivered well and the characters instead of comic looked idiots. Even story is weak. The comic timings of Jackie Shroff and Katrina Kaif is not worth it. Actually I am thinking what's Jackie Shroff is doing in the film. When we have horror comedies like Bhoot Police and Stree dealing with subject so nicely in comparison this film looks totally useless. Have some moments but those are not enough to uplift the movie to make it more like-able. Waiting for some good movie from Katrina.
