It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
... View MoreIn truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
... View MoreIt's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
... View MoreIt is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
... View MoreI first saw Phoonk 2 years ago,felt it was OK;maybe not as scary as supposed to be.But me and bro were curious to watch the sequel, so watch we did on the BIG SCREEN,and by jove!It really was scary.The story is about Madhu(Ashwini) who returns from the grave to take revenge on Rajiv(Sudeep) and all his loved ones.I don't think it's a huge budget movie-only a small star cast,one can see that not much has been spent.The film moves on a very spooky note,unlike Phoonk. And one point worth noting is that NOTHING HAS BEEN COPIED FROM THE WEST,like many horrors in India do.And the climax keeps one waiting to watch a Phoonk 3. But the film is actually illogical. The makers have simply tried to make something scary. There's so much of unexplained and illogical stuff. Watch it if you want horror.Best seen on the big screen.
... View MoreI really don't know where to start. This seems to be one confusing ghost! One moment, she doesn't need to use a body to kill people, at other moments entering into more than one body(even if it's a doll) is not enough to kill! And no clear answer as to what happens to this lady spirit at the end. Lot of scenes in the movie either defy logic or sense.The only redeeming aspect is Amruta Khanvilkar as actor Sudeep's wife and Ahsaas Channa as Sudeep's daughter. Both brought life to their performances. Even Sudeep does a decent job. There's no point talking about the rest as it doesn't matter anyway.Verdict: If released, Phoonk 3 should say - Phoonk 2 retold, with answers!
... View MoreIt is awesome, to hell with all those who wrote tripe about this movie it was slow to start with but later on picked up and it is first time in Hindi cinema that the main protagonist dies and evil doesn't lose but is subdued and i feel that is the best part as it doesn't show any fake views but reality that evil cannot be destroyed so cheers RGV for making something new with your new golden boy Mr.Milan Ghadekar. Also i must say that barring 1920 in recent times no horror movie in Indian cinema has shown gore .Also must mention 13b which is also a great movie. With regards to Phoonk2 the camera-work and the shocks are the best i felt scared and i am sure very confidently that without consuming alcohol no one can watch this movie in the hall alone.
... View MoreWhen I got out of a theater with an excruciating headache thanks to the movie that finds its place in the IMDb bottom 100, 'RGV ki AAG', I realized with a sinking feeling that the man who made movies like Satya and Company had undoubtedly suffered a severe concussion.But to come to this, RGV? Funding equally clueless film makers who have no doubt tottered up to your foot steps, jarring camera angles and irrelevant close ups et al. Who scripted this thing? Not the 5 year old child actor of this movie for sure. He looked far too sensible for it. For it is nothing but Bhoot, Vastu Shastra and Phoonk 1 sliced up and edited together. The tragedy is, this one might pass off as a parody of all of themI will tell you what is scary about this movie. The fact that film makers still think they can botch together a movie out of things that have stopped scaring people 25 years ago. During the entire course of this sham (I really can't dignify it by calling it a movie) I felt more emotionless than one of those frozen hibernating frogs. You see, I've been rendered so incredibly numb that I can't even elucidate just how vile a mockery of the craft of film making this is.However, I am eternally grateful to the makers for keeping it shorter than 2 hours. Had I been one of them, I'd have taken my name off the credits.The tagline reads 'The first one was a warning'. I'll tell you something, this review is one as well.
