I honestly wasn't looking forward to Diwali release Housefull 4, it's a film which doesn't require to analytically think, the intention is simply to sit back, relax and enjoy this ridiculous hilarious journey.
SPOILER ALERT
Story line
The movie focuses on the concept of reincarnation, one era set in 1419,Sitamgarh mostly a parody of Padmaavat and Bahubali and the other era in London.
When 6 Lovers are parted because of an evil conspiracy and revenge in the era of 1419,they cross paths again in 2019.However in the present life 3 Boys fall in love with the wrong women and are about to marry their Sister-in-law. As destiny would have it history repeats itself when the 3 couples land up in Sitamgarh once again, where it all began.
Three couples slowly come to the realization that they are actually getting married to the wrong couple, how they trace their paths back, how their romance actually blossoms and what exactly happened that they ended up almost getting married to the wrong person.
So the entire movie lies on Akshay kumar who is one of the best Comedic Actor in the country today, no matter how stupid or illogical the premise, narrative or character Khilladi manages to make you laugh with his body language and comic timing. There are some genuinely hilarious moments which is will make you ROFL and all of those include Akshay kumar but they are few and far between this film. The Ladies have basically not much to do in this movie, but they look gorgeous, manages to keep the glamour high. The Cinematography, Set designs and VFX are top notch, they almost created a Padmaavat like colour plate on screen and long shots of palace which are mostly digitally created should be appreciated. The music is by far the worst in the franchise, there's no creativity in lyrics even for a morsel i honestly while watching the film in theater there was lack of effort and too laziness.
Maine tujhe gundon se bachaya hai toh mujhe kiss karo. Dracula ka main peeta hun khoon taaza

Badla badla badla Donald Trump ko mila Donald Duck so usne name badla badla badla badla.. .
I have no idea to comprehend what was being discussed by the creative team when this was getting green lit. There are many more , i felt tried to write all that
Kriti says mann balwan lagge chatan, rahe maidaan mein aake hud hud dabangg in 1419
They are asking pigeons to shit on their face for several times.
Distributing Sauss in 1419 and making fun of that by saying 1419 mein paasta mil sakta toh sauss kyun nahin.
Kisi ko thappad lag ke memory chali jaati hai Aur kisi ko ghanti ke awaz se
& that bahubali song when Bala ko rajghosh declare kiya jata hai
Kirti kharbanda gaati hai bobby deol ke liye
Bahut saari reference hai
Dabangg, bahubali, mujhse shaadi karogi, kick
Jaati hun mein song in 1419.
I can go on and on
It's a cringe comic capper
This premise should have been written cleverly, the lack of newness in situations and dialogues is so apparent that you realize it's not going to genuinely tell a wacky over the top story. Most of the dialogues test your patience and make you cringe and entire integration of the reincarnation in this movie test your intelligence and things fall into place so easily but it has been stretched to 150 minutes. A man loses his memory if he hears any kind of erratic sound. He recessive dates a tarantula by blowing air into it's enos.
The movie promotes perversion and sexism, it's regressive to say the least. , yes I know it's a Nobrainer masala entertainer they are not giving any kind of social message but it's still very uncomfortable to watch with your girl (GF in my case). It can only happen in Bollywood that the heroes ask bees ke baad kya aata hai Ekkiss toh kiss toh banta hai and the girls falls for it and who can forget Ranjeeth.
Main abla hun tabla nahin, is this a family movie even and they are plenty of it.
Rana Daggubati is embarrassing, how could he agreed for such role, Nawaz's cameo appearance is unnecessary and Johny and Chunky's love story is unintentionally too irritating.
Ritesh is totally wasted not because he hasn't performed well but this is the weakest written role of him in the total series, can't believe he was a Intregal part of franchise after Akshay.
Bobby does his work well.
FINAL RATING: If you enjoy Humshakals and HNYs kind of comedy this is for you, there are some genuinely funny scene but they are far in between. This is the worst movie in the franchise though it's the grandest. 1/5* ONLY FOR HARDCORE AKSHAY FANS IF THEY CAN'T WAIT FOR 2 MORE MONTHS
