I was so excited for the movie and got the time to watch this but it didn't turned out to be that much impressive....with such a good star cast the plot nd jokes were not at tge point ..... for a funny movie like this u expect to laugh after every 5 mins. Bt in this one it was not that usual
I'm not going to lie; I absolutely only watched this film because of the ridiculous title and the horribly botched and redundant description given at our theater. "Mr && Mrs 420 Returns are back again with the 420 famliy" (yes, typo and all) followed by a list of the actors in the film and with a PG rating for "drug use." It turned out the main character was a cokehead, and the 420 was only referenced in the form of Section 420 of the Penal Code, which is not something I was aware of before going in to this film.
I didn't see the prior film or Mr 420, so I am not sure of the running gags, though both Mr and Mrs films seem to have the same element of faking a marriage with men posing as women in order to get some sort of monetary gain through fraud if the plot description is accurate. I didn't remember character names aside from Radha and Ganga, which are the fake identities of the two men posing as a mother and daughter. It's just basically a junkie guy who wants to get married so he can get 10 acres of land from his family, and another guy who wants two of those acres so he can marry the girl he loves.
The plot feels like something that was cobbled together in a single day by an inebriated Bollywood Adam Sandler equivalent. Nothing makes sense, and basic film elements are plopped in here and there without finesse or nuance. Characters don't act realistically, and a lot of the film's problems would be immediately solved if any of the side characters behaved in a sensible manner for all of a few seconds, especially Radha's love interest, who refuses to hear out her supposed love's explanation.
The characters seem to be all over the place. Drug addict guy seems to be the main character of the film at the start, but once the basic elements of the story are in play the film seems to largely forget him, putting him aside to focus on the comic relief characters for the vast majority, which isn't too bad considering he was the most boring character in the film. The rest of the characters are at least funnier, but no one has any depth to them, and most surprising, I never managed to figure out which two were the titular Mr & Mrs 420.
The film was also riddled with extremely poor subtitles. This film needed a proper proofreading as basically every type of mistake shows up at some point. There's countless typos, grammatical mistakes, and entirely incorrect words used at times, and though it can be mostly understood, it is most certainly unprofessional, especially when many of these errors could be caught with Grammarly, which is a free-to-use program, so a limited budget hardly excuses the laziness here. One time "com" was used instead of "come," the title doesn't properly punctuate "Mr." and "Mrs.," and verbs are constantly used in an incorrect tense, and many other problems that are almost too hard to explain.
The cinematography is pretty bad. There's nothing too obnoxious, but there's certainly a number of cheesy outdated effects, such as speeding up slow movements to make them look fast. There's a stunt involving all the characters diving into a river which looks really unrealistic too. You can tell they're on a sort of bungee cord as they fall in a sort of bizarre anti-gravity fashion.
The music was also largely forgettable. There were certain jingles that are used in excessive amounts, and they appear several times with no alterations throughout the film.
The movie isn't all too funny or entertaining, and it goes on too long. It's a straightforward sitcom that essentially telegraphs its jokes. Nothing stands out. The funniest thing about this movie is the name, which is a shame since I was expecting something more interesting than what I got.
