Despatch

The film suffers from unnecessary adult scenes and a lack of connection between the stories. Manoj's dialogues are often hard to understand, not due to volume but poor voice clarity, making key moments frustrating. While natural delivery is appreciated, essential lines must remain audible. Additionally, the attempt to highlight the 2G Scam feels underwhelming; the narrative deserved a stronger, more coherent approach. Overall, the execution fails to engage effectively, leaving a lot to be desired in both storytelling and technical aspects. I dont know about other reviews who are saying it is great movie and all.

If you are a Manoj Bajpayee fan and expecting something similar to Family Man, Aiyaari, Silence, 100 etc. Then you will be disappointed. Very slow. Unnecessary vulgar scenes. When the story and presentation does not have spice, making vulgar scenes will never. In Short, Bakwaas. 3/10 is a higher star rating for this. Too many characters possibly trying make reality in movie. Sometimes, as an audience one may start thinking which character is the story referring to and feel just lost. I am a great fan of Manoj Bajpayee and have seen many of his top quality movies or series. This one is even worse than Bhaiyaji. I think Manoj Bajpayee is almost in the end of his era of lead roles. Manoj sir. You have an image in public mind. Please don't destroy it.

There was a lot of buzz bout the film due to one of the most fabulous bollywood actor manoj bajpayee. I too was really excited for the movie. Initially when movie started I thought plot is great storyline must be even amazing even in the last 20 minutes of movie I thought maybe something will happen but it never. Absolutely waste of time, for someone like me who watches movie for story it wasn't upto the mark for which people need to see the movie. Effort was put in acting and directing but what can anybody do when the characters are not making any point. I wasn't able to connect with the movie even once.

The movie fails to engage with the storyline, and I don't understand why Manoj Bajpayee was made to deliver his dialogues so slowly as if he had some kind of speech problem. I was very excited about this film, but honestly, I had to look up the scam it was based on to better understand it. In a nutshell, if you're not familiar with this scam, you won't be able to grasp the movie fully.

There's no doubt that Manoj Bajpaee is an absolutely brilliant actor. However apparently when he acts in C grade movies like DESPATCH (and other films from Zee 5) he reduces his quality of acting to match the overall quality of the film. Everything about this movie at best was average with nothing at all including the overall acting direction screenplay editing being praiseworthy in the slightest. Films like these don't stand a chance in the cinemas and are ideal only for OTT. Very difficult to enjoy these type of movies where everything is of such a very poor quality. These are forgettable movies.

5/10.
