The Housefull franchise returns with its fifth installment – bigger cast, louder jokes, and a surprising twist. But does the madness still work in 2025? Here's the no-nonsense lowdown 👇

#Housefull5 #MovieReview

Plot & Genre Shift 🎭🔪

What starts as a typical slapstick comedy turns into a murder mystery (!). The twist adds freshness, but the execution? Mixed bag. Some found it clever, others felt it came out of nowhere.

Performances 🎭

Akshay Kumar owns the chaos – effortless comic timing 🤹‍♂️

Abhishek & Riteish double down on the madness 😂

Chunky Pandey is still “Aakhri Pasta” and still unhinged 🤪

Female leads? Largely underutilized 🙄

Comedy Style 🤔

Expect:

✅ Slapstick galore

✅ Double-meaning jokes

✅ Over-the-top gags

But the humour isn’t for everyone – if you're not into crude or recycled jokes, this might not land 🎯

Visuals & Vibes 🌴🎨

Shot in exotic locations with grand sets – the film looks vibrant. Costumes, dance numbers, and chaos all scream “Bollywood spectacle” 🌟

The Problem Areas ⚠️

Over-objectification of women 😑

Some gags feel outdated 💤

Weak writing in parts

Story loses steam after the twist

Audience Verdict 📊

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Mass audience: Fun time-pass

🎬 Critics: Low on substance, high on noise

🎭 Franchise fans: Will enjoy the familiar formula

🧠 Discerning viewers: Might cringe more than laugh

Final Verdict 🧾

⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3/5)

A loud, chaotic ride with some laughs and one clever twist – works if you go in expecting full-on masala madness, not logic 🎢
