    If you have seen the two earlier installments of this franchise, you already know that is purely a ‘leave-your-brains-behind’ affair. The premise is a comedy of errors. But unlike Gulzar’s gem Angoor (1982), this one is not about twins. It’s so convoluted, it will make Shakespeare turn in his grave.

    Housefull 3 is mad, irreverent and funny. And it has Akshay Kumar’s outstanding return to comedy in one of his finest performances. Go for it.

  • …has all the constituents of an archetypal Hindi masala movie with hilarity, absurdity, humour, gags and punches in abundance. The film is a madcap entertainer which delivers guffaws, belly laughs and over-the-top slapstick humour in gigantic proportion. The film however is bound to get diverse reactions from the audiences. If you admire and relish these entertainers, and are passionate about cinema of this variety, then HOUSEFULL 3 is definitely a stress buster for you. Else, you can stay away from this. At the Box-Office, HOUSEFULL 3 will appeal only to the masses, the aam aadmi, who relish hardcore masala movies.

  • Our verdict is that ‘Housefull 3’ is a full-on family entertainer. After all, there is no harm in giving logic a small break for a while.

    Housefull 3 is neither the best comedy film in Bollywood nor it aims to be. Yet, it is the best film of the franchise (not that there is much to aim there…), as it is far more entertaining and funnier than its predecessors. Go for it, if you like mindless entertainers, and I am sure you will not be disappointed!

    Bye bye Sajid Khan, you will NOT be missed at all!

  • The tale of three losers with some nifty get-rich-quick-scheme is one of those films that defies logic. As long as you don’t look for sense in this one, you are safe.

  • Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan and Riteish Deshmukh will tickle your funny bone!
    If only you can manage to check your brains at the entrance of the movie hall!

  • …the film ends up as a decent stress-buster due to its combination of slapstick and situational comedy. More than the script, it is the actors who go that extra mile in this matter, led of course by Akshay Kumar as the wannabe sportsman with split personality disorder.
