Welcome Back

The sequel fails to entertain in the slightest bit. It is boring to watch even with a bunch of friends.

Lines were weak, dance numbers didn't do anything to entertain the audience and the overall theme is the exact same as the previous movie.

The acting itself was substandard, leaving much to be desired. Some parts of the movie were amusing but not enough to make it worth watching.

The script seemed randomly thrown in with poor screenplay, mediocre directing and annoying cut-scenes.

Welcome Back fails to live up to expectations set by the original.

I wasn't expecting much from the film from the beginning however unexpectedly it did provided some fun time though the film had weak direction and weak story. The first thing I must say is that there is not much difference to see in this film from the predecessor,similar situations and very similar plot (though the first part was way much better). Let's start with the pros first Anil Kapoor and Nana Patekar did a fine job in portraying the characters of Majnu and Udai just like before. The film is pretty funny in second half and few dialogs are pretty cleverly written and have many amazing and beautiful locations. However still they were not able to fill in for the cons which include bad songs and some very unfunny jokes along with bad visual effects which by the way felt unnecessary. I was pretty disappointed with performance of Shruti Hasan as she did not stood out much and also with Paresh Rawal not getting more screen time and John Abraham's performance which yet again did not left a mark. The film doesn't make much sense and has pretty brainless plot I won't recommend this film if if you want something which makes sense however you can watch if you leave brain at home.

Sequel of Welcome, which was quite an enjoyable film. This films stars all the A-listers, which was the reason it got droves of people to watch it in the first place. Honestly, the film is a disappointed. With the likes of Nana Patekar and Paresh Rawal. Their presence makes it livelier but the weak story line seriously undermines the whole experience.

The film show casts Dubai shorelines, which look amazing on the big screen. However, the direction was choppy. One particular sequence was just down right stupid when skydivers are above Palm one moments and appear next to their target the next in the sandy dunes of remote UAE.

The A-listers are gold and their on-screen performance was what kept things going but the new cast, Shruti Hassan and Dimple's Daughter (in the film) did a pretty shoddy job.

Film to let go by in the cinema and probably catch up on a Saturday afternoon in front of Tele.

music--awful script--one of the worst, even stalwarts like naseruddin shah or paresh rawal looked idiotic due to scripts

action sequence--these kind of action sequences were shown in 90s

acting--out of the 1000 one liners in the movie, maybe 2-3 can really make you giggle

Anees Bazmee creates below average films -thats true, but this one is definitely one of his worst!

It's hard to believe these kind of movies are coming out in 2015!!

Don't waste your time

watch welcome instead!

Welcome Back (2015)

A sequel to the 2007 comic caper Welcome starring Anil kapoor, Nana Patekar, John Abraham, Paresh Rawal and Shruti Hasaan in the lead. Directed by Anees Bazmi.

The movie fails miserably in the sequel. The first part was a laughter riot but it does not create the same magic again. I didn't had any expectation from the movie still I convinced myself to watch this.

The only thing I enjoyed in the movie was watching Majnu and Uday Shetty, rest all failed to entertain me. John Abraham is not at all suitable for comedy roles. His expressions are worst. He can only do films like Madras Cafe (He is best in that type of roles). Shruti Hasaan has to learn a lot in terms of acting and comic timing. You will surely miss Akki (Akshay Kumar) in the sequel.

The first half of the movie is too boring, you can have some laughs in the post interval part. I had never experienced such bad songs and their lyrics in recent movies. Anees Bazmi is known for directing good comedy movies but this time He had made a very illogical and a totally senseless movie.

Watch this movie at your own risk and please leave your brain at home if you convinced yourself for watching Welcome Back.

1.5/5 or 4/10
