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.

Housefull 5 had a lot of big stars, so I expected it to be a fun and entertaining movie. But sadly, it was a huge letdown. The plot didn't make much sense and felt like it was just copied from old movies. The comedy, which is supposed to be the main part of the Housefull series, was almost missing. Most jokes were not funny at all, and the timing felt off.
With so many famous actors in one film, they could have done something really great. But it seems like the makers didn't put in enough effort. It looked more like they made the movie just for money.
In the end, Housefull 5 is a movie that fails to entertain. The weak story, lack of good comedy, and wasted star cast make it hard to enjoy. If you are hoping for laughs or something memorable, this movie is not worth your time.

Movie is purely based kn cleavage and somewhat darkcomedy but its a pure waste of time.the movie is full of cring and bad joke and if you are thinking of watching it give yourself a favor watch old cricket matches but not this movie it is purely made for teenagers for are looking for cleavage everywhere and it serves them perfect no doubt it has no so great story both the ending are really bad and when you look at cgi you really will not sleepnfor 2 days its looks so bad that you can compare 19s movie with this level of cgi useless connection to houseful 1
Totally a cash grabing movie with women dark jokes.
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 It relies on outdated humor, and tests the patience of even the most loyal fans of the series.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.

How can a producer having this much experience makes such low level movie, half of the movie is copied from memes, english movies and reels. The rest is very childish comedy. They fit the propellers inside the hull of the ship just to make last scene, everyone is flying around.
If we talk about the suspense of the movie, that is the most mediocre kind of story, been watching Netflix and Hollywood for so long, I think Bollywood is far behind and their decline has started already.
Why can't they make a Bollywood movie where people aren't flying around? I mean do they even watch the movie when they finalise it?
