Housefull 3 - Akshay Is The Heart Of This Passably Funny Movie. 😌

Genre - Comedy/Romance.

Run time - 2 h 25 min minutes.

📜 Plot - A father doesn't want his daughters to get married. Buh they fall in love. Now, the three men enter the mansion of their ladylove's pretending to b disabled to gain the father's sympathy and try to convince him that they're a good fit for his daughters.
Also, things take a turn when a DON enters their lives.

The Third Installment in the Housefull Series, is helmed by Writer-Director Duo Sajid-Farhad, instead of Housefull Veteran Sajid Khan. And to be honest, this one is actually funny in parts, despite some ridiculous jokes. All i can ask you all is to lock away the logic and enjoy this mad ride !

The beginning is very lukewarm. Honestly, I wasn't laughing initially. But, right after the lads enter their ladyloves home as the disabled souls, the narrative picks up.
Director duo Mr. Sajid-Farhad's enhance the comedy by their shot taking and narration style.

💨 Story and Dialogues - Clumsy is the word. Although they have labelled this movie as a slapstick comedy, some jokes, especially the ones involving the actress's translating English puns into Hindi, are unfunny to the core. The writing could've been better. Of course, I didn't expect 'Housefull 3' to be a comedic gem, but we have heard & read some of the many such jokes on whatsapp long ago. Even the Dialogues, ranges from hilarious to plain silly.
But, the humor works in favor of Akshay Kumar's character, who suffers from dual-personalities. There is even a nice twist towards the interval point, which definitely, works. The movie raises its comic bar after the interval and it will definately kick your funny bone every now and then. The second-hour, though over populated, is still packed with enough jokes & gags, which do the trick. The Climax, particularly, is hilarious ! 👍😂

💨 Cinematography is nearly perfect with all the vibrant colors and locations.

💨 Editing could've been a lil sharper. Buh, its still passable.

💨 Music - 'Pyar ki ma ki' is okayish. The rest, are plain annoying.

💨 Art & Costume Design are actually goood !

💨 Performance -
➡ Akshay Akshay Akshay ! Akshay's split personality act is the best where he's Sundi and Sandy. His body language is too good. His genius comic timing and expression aren't new anymore, but he portrays the dual-personality driven character, with unbelievable ease. He is undoubtedly, the film's best joke!

Riteish Deshmukh is also superb with his expressions.

Abhishek has his moments and he reminds us of his superb performances in Bol Bachchan and Happy New Year.

Also the chemistry with the boys is awesome and it shows on screen. It's Akshay, Riteish and Abhishek who literally saved this movie from being a crap like Humshakals.

Jacqueline is fine. While Lisa and Nargis feel slapped on. Poor. Basically, all the actresses are only to meet up the movie's glamour quotient.

Boman Irani is first-rate, his Gujarati dialect is perfect.

Jackie Shroff is impressive. He carries his look and personality in interesting way.

Chunkey Pandey as Akhri Pasta, is enjoyable.

🔯 On the whole, 'Housefull 3' isn't a laugh-riot like 'Housefull 2', but its funny in parts nonetheless. Go! Grab a Popcorn, and enjoy this fine family entertainer. 🔯😌☝

Ratings - ❤❤ 1/2
