Mad

Very superficial movie. Didn't meet expectations. While some jokes land, most of the movie is filled with generic college stuff. Lacking in depth. DD character felt properly portrayed. Everyone else seemed highly artificial. There are many other movies dealing with college subject in a mature and sensitive way like Kirik party or Hridayam. Agree that there is no lag, can go for it only if interested in mindless dramedy for 2 hours.

The entire movie was filled with unrealistic scenes of alcohol and smoking which seemed to go on forever. None of the love stories had effect. Nothing memorable to take away from this movie.

Mad is genuinely a good film without unnecessary nudity, item songs, or any kind of cheap elements. It is definitely a family movie, and if you want to spend quality time with your family, then this is a must-watch wholesome thing.

The movie is all about college life, mainly engineering college life, with a little bit of family life shown throughout the story. Interestingly, this film has no single protagonist; it is the story of a group of boys, and the story is told through one of the boys called Laddo.

It is a simple story with a touch of light action, romance, and comedy; there is a very strong friendship equation. The climax is very unexpected and satisfying and by the end, it exudes a strong feel-good vibe.

Of course, no movie is flawless, laughs are subjective after all. I wasn't sitting there laughing loudly, but a great many scenes did bring an honest smile to my face.

So, I was about to give it a 7, but since it's fresh and shines bright as one of the few films in the trend-ruled modern cinema, I give it an 8.

"Mad Movie is a delightful cinematic masterpiece! From the moment the opening credits roll, you're in for an uproarious journey filled with side-splitting humor and wacky escapades. The ensemble cast's performances are nothing short of brilliant, and the screenplay is a work of comedic genius. With a mix of slapstick humor and clever wit, this film keeps you laughing throughout. The visual effects and set designs add to the spectacle, making it a visual treat. Whether you're a fan of comedy or just looking for a fun time at the movies, Mad Movie delivers it all. Don't miss this uproarious, feel-good film that's destined to become a classic!" 🎬😂👏

I have never seen a movie this good. It has all important features, comedy (everywhere), drama, and action (very little, but still there). Amazing acting by Sangeeth Shobhan (Damodar/D. D), Narne Nithiin (Ashok), Ram Nithin (Manoj), Vishnu Oi (Laddu/Ganesh), Karthikeya Samala (Siva). How could I forget, the girls, Sri Gouri Priya (Sruthi), Ananthika Sanilkumar (Jenny), and Gopikaa Udyan (Radha). I have to say, that Raghu Babu (Principal Purushottam) and the "seniors" in the first half of Mad, did some superb acting. I do want to say that a lot of people have overlooked the cinematic brilliance of Vishnu Oi (Laddu) and Karthikeya Samala (Siva), Laddu's comedy lines, and overall expressions were to die for, and Siva's dark humour topped it off. Big thumbs up, to Kalyan Shankar, as he directed the movie very well. Have to say, that in Mad, that the actors worked really well together, and everybody got equal roles. Which ended with us seeing Ashok's rich background and love affair with Jenny. D. D's comedic love angle with Vennela. And, to top it all off we got to see Manoj's charisma, or as the Gen Z call it his rizz. The songs, were nice like College Papa. Overall, it is a must-watch movie, you can watch it with family and friends, and does not have unnecessary swearing, or vulgarness. I found it so good that I have watched it 4 times already, and you never know how many more. You can watch it in English, Hindi, Malyalam, Tamil, Kannada, and Telugu on Netflix. So, 10/10 from me, most likely from you too!

Watched it on Netflix without any expectations and thoroughly enjoyed it! Even though there are several movies set in college phase, this one is easily one of the best I watched in recent times. The overall tone of the movie is bright, happy and uplifting. No unnecessary drama or sad scenes. Kudos to the director.

A lot of people use the phrase "out-and-out comedy" to describe their films, but it is rarely true. However, this film justifies that phrase - the entire movie is filled with fun and hilarious sequences, from start to end. I personally enjoyed all the funny sequences involving the college principal.

There are some funny dialogues involving foul language, so it may NOT be the right movie to watch with complete family, but I have to say we all used those words with our college buddies, so it was very relatable and brought back college memories.

All the actors were fantastic, but Sangeeth Shoban stole the show with strong screen presence, his dialogue delivery, and what a voice man! Ram Nithin is a known face from short films and he did a great job too while looking like a chocolate boy. The only negative point from me is that the female leads were under utilized. They are all so beautiful, danced and acted very well - especially Ananthika. It would have been great if there were more scenes with them. No complains other than that.
