The shenanigans of Emraan Hashmi, Gaurav Arora and Kriti Kharbanda are supposed to be scary. What you get instead is unintended humour.

I was engaged more than I expected to be. I had inadvertently tight muscles till the culprit was obvious. But then again, I scare easily. If you want to be spooked but not too seriously, you could just skim through this one when there’s nothing else on TV.

Raaz Reboot is a tough watch for close to 140 minutes. Great songs, but not enough to pull it out of the spirit’s grip.

Though the film has a few scary scenes, it ends up being a clichéd love story instead of a horror flick. The music by Jeet Ganguly, Sangeet and Sidharthy Haldipur is melodious, especially the title track. However, the movie doesn’t really offer you a solid reason for watching it. ‘Raaz Reboot’ isn’t a must watch this week, catch it only if you are an ardent fan of the Raaz franchise.

Raaz Reboot has the same old stuff that we have seen a zillions times. So unless you love watching horror films that make you laugh, stay away from this one!

Overall, Raaz Reboot is mediocre fare and may appeal only to fans of the Raaz franchise.

This overstretched drama is way too cliched and soppy to hold your interest but it does amuse you in its own unique ways.

Raaz Reboot is a classic fail at coming even little close to scaring you. I need to reboot my memory to have watched this!

Raaz Reboot might still go on to make money, like its predecessors in the franchise. But do we as the Indian audience need to assaulted with such banal, comical horror every single time the Bhatts have some money to make a film? Nope. So if you still go ahead and spend money on a movie like this, you DESERVE more movies like these. And thou shalt not complain about the poor state of horror movies in India. Thou absolutely shalt not.

Raaz Reboot is amateurish and very forgettable. In fact, most of its horror sequences are so random that they evoke laughter instead of fear. That can never be a good proposition for a horror film.

As far as RAAZ REBOOT is concerned, it’s just an extension of the money making franchise which at the most strictly manages to please the diehards.

Emraan Hashmi is Aditya again. Alas there’s no Bipasha Basu rebooted as Shanaya, but another pretty girl (Kriti Khabanda) rebooted as Shaina redoing the Arth mangalsutra beads are broken act, the ghosts that possess bodies are still levitating and contorting bodies, and creaking doors and yanking screaming women under the bed… Reboot means Rehash.

The biggest raaz about the film is why this is even called a Reboot, when there is nothing new Vikram Bhatt has to offer. Apart from an interesting twist, the rest of the film is just bland!  Watch it at your own risk.
