If Indians think that Netflix is the dumping ground for bad Bollywood films then tell them that there is a platform called Zee5 that is its daddy in having all trash hindi content. I can barely name one hindi film that is available on Zee5 that is even barely worth watching and 36 Farmhouse is just an addition to that elite trash list in Zee5.
No I mean seriously what was going on in this film? What is it's genre? A thriller? A situational comedy? Romance? What? If its all 3 then this film fails in all of them. Neither is the film tense nor is it even barely funny. In fact it is so boring that at one point you seriously question, why did i even sign up for this film? Just because i saw some top level actors in it? Maybe that is the reason but other than that, a family property related story that has been given a complete done-to-death treatment.
Shubhash Ghai is the writer of this film although it is directed by some other dude. Shubhash Ghai, the legend of the 80s-90s has not learnt to adapt with changing times. He still thinks this dated plot with an equally dated boring treatment will work in 2022. The fact that there is always a thundering noise whenever Vijay Raaz shouts or there is a shocking revelation gives it that indian serial like feeling. Shubash Ghai should stop/writing films until he understands what new gen audience need.
Performances need no elaboration. Everyone is wasted.
Overall, just stay away from this film. Absolute waste of time. Zee5 should hire a better team for reviewing these films before adding them in their collection, you see platforms like Sonyliv, Prime are doing far better atleast they have quite a number of hindi/non-hindi shows/films that are memorable but Zee5? Not one, or maybe just 1 or 2. No matter that their subscription prices too are low just 500rs that too they sometimes give discount to desperately sell their subscription cuz even they know noone is gonna buy their subs as there is nothing worthy to watch.
