Bumboo Reviews and Ratings
-
The good thing about ‘Bumboo’ is its climax. You can certainly laugh towards the end. And yes, Mika Singh’s song during the credits is worth dancing.Message of the film fails to reach the spectator because Sanjay Mishra gives a really long ‘speech’ before coming to the crux of the matter.’Bumboo’ is a film made with good intentions but somehow the makers couldn’t transform the original idea onto the celluloid.You can always watch ‘Bumboo’ to support the storytellers who dare to go against the established market norms.

BUMBOO boasts of an interesting concept. Unfortunately, the writing is painfully taxing, while the execution is plain amateurish, especially the closing stages of the movie. What also makes the movie-going experience cumbersome is the fact that the scenes are stretched for no reason and the laughs are scarce and forced. A man saves the life of a stranger and lives to regret it… Ideally, the black comedy had the potential to have you rolling in the aisles. But the Hindi adaptation is sketchy and theatrical at most times.On the whole, BUMBOO tries too hard to be funny and that’s why it misfires. Besides, a weak script, abrupt conclusion and bizarre characters only go against it!

For most part after that it is the sharp-shooter (Sharat Saxena) and the photographer (Kavin Dave) who Bumboo you. If that is not enough there’s a psychiatrist thrown in along with the photographer’s wife (Mandy Takhar). To be fair, it is only Mandy who though made to act without a script impresses with her bit.
If you are willing to get Bumbooed, do walk right in!
