Blackout

Only reason to watch this movie is Sunil Grover. Other cast just irritate you.

1. story: 5/10. First half = 3/10, 2nd half = 5/10.

2. Direction: 4/10 extremely bad. I mean you are making a thriller comedy movie.. have some decency and don't frame the movie in action genre.

But, Two shot were awesome.. one of them was Sunil Grover introduction. It was like... you're watching a 90's movie.

3. music and bgm = okay okay 4/10

Rest are just fine. There is nothing more to talk about this movie. It's just a normal boring movie.. That's why I rated it 4/10.

Conclusion: if you want to watch it then go... personally, I won't recomended you to go.

This movie stands in between Silver screen and B grade movie. Prefer whatever you need.

It's the same gener of "Monica, O my Darling" . I mean who watches this gener.. like how overly dramatic you can be for a two liner story.

And even you try it.. you put the story instead of acting and craft... which already is less in your account.

That's why this gener is utter nonsense.

Honestly, this movie felt lackluster. The acting seemed exaggerated, and the storyline was all over the place. It revolves around a guy's unfortunate night, attempting humor but falling short. With Vikrant Massey and Sunil Grover leading, the dynamic didn't quite hit the mark for my taste in comedy. Mouni Roy's inclusion felt unnecessary, as did most of the side characters. The plot lacked direction and excitement, despite its attempts at mystery drama. The only captivating aspect was the revealing inside the box, which unfortunately was predictable. Overall, it left me questioning its purpose.

One time watch for sure , Movie becomes boring after first halt, Sunil Grovers character feels weak , Mouni Roy was just there for eye candy , could have done much better with this story , Vikrant Messy delivered promising performance. They lost the fun theme in middle of movie and after that it was some flat boring predictable storyline. Unnecessary characters and unnecessary songs and emotional drama. Feels like certainly not touching and convincing enough. Good end though. Some good punches in the first half , good laughter at initial many points but ran flat after that. Overall a one time watch movie.

Movie is a all rounder It has a slow starting Movie has a different side till 1st half and movie switches itself in second half.

Comedy is very well written and performed.

Performances were top notch.

Mouni Roy's role seems not of use Sunil Grover steals the show.

Vikrant Massey has done fabulous job.

In the starting, We can't guess what's going to happen.

In last 30 40 minutes, there are so many twists and turns that you will be amazed.

Jaw-dropping ending.

Well written & well performed comedy thriller. Not like typical cringe movie which Bollywood is into nowadays.

Suspence is maintained till the end.

A good watch with friends and family.

Blackout (2024) plunges viewers into a single, blackout-stricken night in Pune, India. Crime reporter Lenny D'Souza (Vikrant Massey) finds himself at the center of the chaos after a car accident leads him to a van full of dead men and cash. The ensuing events involve a motley crew of characters, including a hilarious alcoholic (Sunil Grover), dimwitted thieves (Karan Sonaware & Saurabh Ghadge), and a damsel-in-distress (Mouni Roy).

Vikrant Massey shines as the harried Lenny, perfectly capturing his desperation and growing paranoia. Sunil Grover steals the show with his delightfully unhinged portrayal of Bewdya, offering genuine laugh-out-loud moments. The blackout creates a tense atmosphere, and the initial car crash sparks curiosity about the hidden secrets within the van.

The film tries to juggle too many characters and subplots, leading to a messy narrative that loses focus. The introduction of new characters in the second half feels forced, and some plot twists are predictable. Blackout attempts to be a dark comedy, but the humor lands inconsistently. The attempts at emotional drama also feel out of place. The camerawork and editing are serviceable but don't particularly stand out.

Blackout has its moments, thanks to the strong performances of Massey and Grover. However, the uneven screenplay and tonal inconsistencies prevent it from reaching its full potential. If you're looking for a fast-paced, light-hearted comedy, this might not be the best choice. But if you're curious about a film that takes a wild ride through a blackout night, it might be worth a watch with lowered expectations.
