Housefull 5

Vulgar jokes which never lands and too many actors and actresses being introduced in the whole movie. Don't watch it with family and I would suggest don't even watch it. Kind of predictable movie with same childish jokes.

There is no need to watch both the movies, both are literally same movies with only 1 villan being interchanged without changing any story or even a scene. You can watch one movie and search who is villan in another one.

The movie uses old clips and references of older housefull movies and Akshay Kumar's funny scenes. Movie is sexy if you are into that than you can watch it otherwise there is no comedy, very less suspense and literally tasteless movie.

I miss old akshay movies. This movie has no base. Mekers should attention other important elements and character. Sons has no connection to movies. There are some vulgure words and gesture in the movie. So watching this movie with the family members is not recommended. Who has basic understanding about a good movie will be disappointed after watching this movie. Day by day the quality of Bollywood movies are falling. Directors of Bollywood only makes movies by selected actors. New talented actors are heavely neglected. This bad practice in Bollywood is even makes the situation worse. This is total time waste movie.

I mean, the title itself says it all, "Housefull of flies!" These people have zero knowledge of storytelling, filmmaking, or anything remotely close to what you'd call a film. And somehow, they're shelling out 240 crores budget for this? Seriously? This film shouldn't even get 10 lakhs.

It honestly makes me cringe, disgusted, to see people rating such nonsense films so highly. And these actors? I don't even have the words. How shameful is it to be part of something that has nothing and on top of that, deliver horrendous acting?

It's literally dog-eats-dog, as some say. They're all just hyping each other up and patting backs for mediocrity after mediocrity. If you have no clue about acting, storytelling, or filmmaking, please, pick another profession and let people who care actually make films.

This isn't comedy anymore, it's worse than even the most basic slapstick made with minimal setups in some rural African country out there online. And those folks probably still have more cinematic understanding than this bunch.

Seriously, who even made these people actors, actresses, or filmmakers? They're just taking audiences for a ride, milking the system with zero accountability. This isn't just bad filmmaking, it's filmmaking apathy.

The Housefull franchise has always thrived on loud humor and slapstick comedy. What once was an occasionally amusing madhouse now feels like a painfully forced circus. Let's start with the elephant in the room - the script. Or rather, the lack of it. The plot of Housefull 5 feels like it was written in haste over a single coffee break, without any effort to tie the sequences into a cohesive story. It relies on outdated humor, and tests the patience of even the most loyal fans of the series.

Director Tarun Mansukhani, best known for Dostana, delivers what is undeniably the weakest execution in the Housefull series so far. While previous entries, despite their flaws, had occasional entertaining sparks and comic timing, this one feels like a chaotic improvisation exercise gone terribly wrong. The screenplay is riddled with pointless sequences that add no value and only stretch the runtime. The second half, in particular, becomes a patience test, scenes come and go without context. There's an uncomfortable reliance on double-meaning jokes.

Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, and Abhishek Bachchan try their best to keep the energy alive. Their comic timing occasionally brings some charm to the otherwise tasteless scenes. Fardeen Khan and Dino Morea offer decent support. However, the female cast Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Soundarya Sharma, and Chitrangda Singh are reduced to mere glamour props. The hyper sexualization of Soundarya Sharma's character in particular feels uncomfortable, drawing unnecessary attention rather than laughs. Shreyas Talpade, Chunky Pandey, Johnny Lever, and Ranjeet are utterly wasted. The entry scenes for Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, and Nana Patekar were great but performance suffered from the lackluster writing.

Direction 1.5/5 Acting 2/5 Dialogues 2/5 Story 1/5 Screenplay 1/5.

Is some part of the movie taken from random YouTube content? For example, Johnny Lever's steam bath scene seems to have been done before in a Gordon Ramsay ad, and Abhishek Bachchan's interrogation scene looks copied from Anwar Jibawi's "The Most Wanted." What's going on with this movie?

The overall story was good but could've been the best. To make movies stand out, creators should focus on original storytelling, build fresh characters, draw from real-life emotions, and avoid overused internet content. Uniqueness is what truly connects with the audience.

I love Akshay kumar he is best, He is the only reason i have seen that movie 🍿
