Dybbuk: The Curse Is Real

Just finished watching this movie. There is nothing new about any scary movie. This was an interesting story, about a possessed ghost wanting to destroy the whole town for wrongdoing.

Acting is good, emraan sir is amazing as always with his expression and just being himself. Others characters were good in their own ways. It weird to not have any songs cause Emraan movies always have no songs but sadly not this time :( Overall, this is a decent scary movie with some jumpy scene and story.

One time watch is what I say just for Emraan sir :)

It's again a ghost story but in a form and new country

The only thing you can see in this movie is the making which is very good and the performances by imraan and manav rest it the same story of revenge

This weekend there were so many entertaining options but it's your choice.

If youve seen the Malayalam film Ezra, youll get nothing new here. Just some better stills in few frames. Story is identical. Even if not be a frame by frame copy, the differences are negligible.

If not, you could go for it as an above average horror / possession movie. Some good visuals, worth a single watch for horror genre fans.

But if i wanted to see it, there was already one to watch, Producers, if you are investing why not try something with its own identity or at least give the audience something new or different? Here only the cast is unique.

Remake of 2017 Malayalam Film Ezra, Dybbuk tells the story of the spirit in the box that tries to destroy the village for the sake of revenge.

Emraan Hashmi playing the lead character matches the vibe of Prithviraj, who played the lead in the original. Being a remake, there was nothing additional new to offer but it did well to maintain itself from being an another weak remake of a South Indian movie.

At moments, the movie felt it was bit rushed to reach to the climax since this one was almost 40 minutes shorter in duration than the original. Dybbuk lacked the exploration of the story in depth, the way Ezra did.

In my opinion Dybbuk is a good attempt and manages at most parts to stand with the original, but short runtime and few moments that felt quick and unexplained was a downer for Dybbuk.

My Rating : 6/10.

There is lack of horror in the movie, you can easily sleep after watching this movie. Story line is nice but not capable to provide horror. Emraan's horror movies are known for it's good sound tracks but there are no soundtracks in the movie.

If you love horror movies then may be you don't find anything much in this movie.
