Mumbai: Just when you think the Housefull franchise couldn’t outdo its previous chaos, Housefull 5 sails in like a storm packed with madness, mystery, entertainment and more masala than ever before. This time, Sajid Nadiadwala, who has also done story and screenplay along with producing the film, has amped up the storytelling by masterfully blending a murder mystery into a comedy, making it an inventive installment.
The signature elements, talking parrots, monkeys, and mistaken identities, are all present, giving audiences a feeling of nostalgia with a fresh twist. Housefull 5 will give you moments of jump scares while keeping you entertained with laughs.
With Tarun Mansukhani at the helm, the film rides on a visually stunning cruise and delivers not one, but multiple climactic twists that are bound to leave the audience in splits and suspense. What truly powers this laughter riot is its big ensemble cast. Akshay Kumar, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, and Johnny Lever prove once again why they’re the undisputed kings of comic timing.
But the true cherry on top? The dynamic addition of Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff with their infectious ‘Baba-Bhidu’ banter. Their chemistry is crackling. Special nods to Shreyas Talpade, whose timing is impeccable, and Nana Patekar, who leaves a mark. Every character and actor in the film did justice to their roles in the story.
Housefull 5 songs are foot-tapping and set the film’s vibe. The “Phoogdi” song is hilarious. It is the first time a Marathi rap has been so well-presented in a Hindi film. From a technical perspective, the film looks lavish.
And just when you think the story is wrapping up, the film throws in twist after twist, the killer reveal is just the beginning. The climax is an explosion of hilarity, and confusion that defines everything we love about Housefull.
Housefull 5 is a riotous ride – bigger, bolder, and crazier than ever before. With amazing songs, endless confusion, and a twist climax that’s both thrilling and hilarious, this film delivers full paisa vasool entertainment.
