Featured reviews
The trailer was...intriguing; a fun murder mystery to watch, the likes of which have been dime-a-dozen; but, very reminiscent of the Sandler-Aniston Murder Mystery films/Knives Out franchise/Poirot-Trilogy. KO1 was OK, all the others varied from so-so to disappointing.
So, I don't know if it's because I went in with low expectations, but...I actually didn't mind the film. Good? Not really. Bad? Also not really.
There were a couple things that the film did, that was different from all of the films above, which made me take a step back and thought "Oh, okay, I didn't expect that." The film also some social commentary that you won't necessarily expect from a comedy-thriller, but take that for whatever it's worth.
I personally thought that the film is bring really criticized, it's not as bad as the internet is making it out to be. Negatives though - too many things happening at the same time, you don't necessarily care for the characters as much; the film was also on the longer side for a murder-comedy of this tone.
If you have nothing else to watch, check it. Not good but there are some positives/Not bad but there are some negatives.

This movie we could have been a great success. The cast was huge & great. Sad they couldn't make a better use of every actor. Sara ali doesn't have any expression on her face. A plain blank face. For me it was unnecessarily stretched. Mystery wasn't enough. And the investigation wasn't interesting Enough. I was looking forward to this movie but it turned out very disappointing. Main lead selection was bad.
Pankaj ji was great as always, very natural in his role. He is the only reason I finished watching it. Karishma Kapoor's character wasn't interesting enough. Overall it's an average movie..

The movie really isn't what we hoped it would be. It's hard to stay interested for more than two hours because it just doesn't grab your attention from the start. The story doesn't flow well, making the whole thing feel broken and not very enjoyable.
The movie tried to be funny and exciting at the same time, but it didn't work out. Even though it had a creative idea, it ended up being neither funny enough nor exciting enough. This mix-up makes the movie less impactful than it could have been.
Even though the movie had famous and talented actors, it didn't help make the movie better. Their performances couldn't save the weak story and direction, leaving viewers feeling let down.
The beginning of the movie doesn't match up with the rest, which can confuse and make it hard for viewers to get into the story. This gap suggests the movie was poorly planned and executed from the start.
All these problems - a confusing story, a failed mix of comedy and thrill, wasted acting talent, and a story that doesn't flow - make watching the movie a tough task. It's disappointing, especially since people expected a lot more from a film with big names and an interesting idea.
In the end, the movie's struggle to keep people interested and tell a good story shows the risks of trying to mix different movie genres without a clear plan. The famous actors don't make up for these issues, and the movie falls short of what it could have been. This makes the film hard to watch and enjoy, highlighting the need for a well-thought-out story and execution in making a successful movie.

I had lots of expectations but after one hr I lost the interest
Suspicion jump from one to another without showing a solid reason
Pankaj Tripathi disappointed directed tried to portrayed him as famous character of Agatha Christie Mr poirot but he didn't had that charisma or style as I have seen BBC made long series on his character I couldn't able to stop myself comparing. He did tried to act like Karam chand another famous character and failed miserably
Sana Ali khan acted well but her character were poorly written In the end her face lacked the expression character demanded
Karishma and Dimple were good in their role and acting
Ny way it was not v bad May be my expectation was too high
I love this genre so hope director will make another movie on this genre with better plot.
I watched "Murder Mubarak" recently, and despite the presence of talented actors like Pankaj Tripathi, Dimple Kapadia, Karishma Kapoor, Tisca Chopra, and Sanjay Kapoor, the film was a letdown. It's disheartening to see such capable artists not being utilized to their full potential. The director missed the mark in harnessing their abilities, which could have elevated the movie significantly. The narrative lacked the intrigue and suspense expected from a thriller, and the pacing was inconsistent. While the cinematography and soundtrack were above a average, they were not enough to compensate for the film's shortcomings. Overall, I'd rate it a 4 out of 10 for the wasted opportunity to create something memorable with such a stellar cast.
