TOTAL DHAMAAL
1: A very over hipped up film for the masses which contains a lot of sleazy and predictable comedy.
Now if this film would have released in say the beginning of 2018 then maybe it could have won the masses hearts but with the success of badhai ho etc the masses have also decided to love good stories and not the cast so now let us go to our section which is
Things that may work
1. CAST: The biggest thing that can bring the audience to the theater is the cast which mostly all these big budget films try to do. The mantra for success for a hit in India is the *CAST BRINGS THE MASS*
2.CHILDREN: The reason why many people will go although even not liking the content is the children. Kids need such films THEY CAN'T BE BORN AS CRITICS RIGHT? If you are dying to get the sweet kiss from your kid then don't read this review and just go to the hall and enjoy
3. DHAMAAL: the first film of the franchise has a fair amount of cult. Hence the people may go for it seeking a similar film
THING WHICH MAY NOT WORK
1. WORD OF MOUTH: Mark my word this film is not going to get a good word of mouth as till the end of the film you feel the sense of sleaze and would not try to experience this again.
2 NO CREATIVITY: I hate films which are made with the same story but with a bigger budget (e.g baaghi 2)coz the story of this film is just the same as Jamaal DHAMAAL TOTAL DHAMAAL The secret was of ten crores The secret is of 50 crores The classic helicopter scene The same helicopter scene The same ending NOW let's MOVE ON TO THE REVIEW
Acting: To be frank none of the actors put an impact on me at the end.No one could be remembered like KAMLI (Sanju). Even great actors like Sanjay Mishra and Ajay Devgn didn't put an impact on me Sanjay Mishra kept on calling Ajay Devgn bro and after a point it became irritating.
SONGS: The songs of the film is PURE S***. I Hated them the lyrics are less the background score is louder and irritating.
WRITING: THERE IS NOT MUCH WRITING DONE FOR THIS FILM EXCEPT FOR BRO BRO BRO BRO BRO AND SOME STUPID SLAPSTICK PUNCHES
SCREENPLAY: SCREENPLAY IS LAZILY PENNED. EACH CHARACTER DOES NOT KNOW WHY THEY ARE DOING AND WHAT.
VFX: The only thing to go for this film is the vfx IF YOU LIKE TO WATCH SUCH STUFF THEN GO FOR IT
ANIMALS: The adventure part of the film with animals is also a thing to go for but if i just wanted to see animals on screen then i would rather go to a zoo.
FINAL VERDICT: IF YOU HAVE A FAMILY WITH KIDS THEN DO GO FOR THIS FILM. BUT IF YOUR FAMILY IS INTERESTED IN GOOD CINEMA THEN DON'T JAM YOUR HEADS AND EMPTY YOUR POCKETS ON THIS FILM. I would rather watch GULLY BOY OR URI THIS WEEK IF I WOULD BE GOING ALONE.
RATING 2/5
SORRY FOR THE LENGTHY REVIEW I'LL MAKE IT SHORT NEXT TIME AND DO MARK IT HELPFUL IF YOU LIKED IT

It's a collection of PJs ...Jokes here jokes there . If you can laugh over a monkey showing its teeth ..then go and watch this ...How on earth a superstar of yesteryear madhuri can accept such a horrible role...Reteish mimics Shatru and yells 150 times BE...sorry Indra kumar ,Biharis dont speak BE ...Sanjay mishra is total waste ...he shouts bro thousand times and each time you want to slap him...Ajay devgan looks like a Rhino ...and Arshad and javed are as boring as Boman .... Saving grace is they dont have female comedians ....Go and watch URI again
1 for Ritesh Deshmukh, 1 for Johny Liver

The film guarantees for two hours is clean entertainment.
Tejas_Vinda_AITS22 February 2019
It has some genuinely funny moments
The template is the same. A dying man reveals a secret about Rs50 crore that he has left hidden in a zoo in Janakpur, India.
Surrounding him is the greedy cast of the film - the husband-wife duo (Madhuri Dixit Nene and Anil Kapoor), the dim-witted Javed Jaffrey and his brother, Arshad Warsi, the cunning Ajay Devgn and his accomplice Sanjay Mishra, Police Commissioner Boman Irani, North-Indian accented Ritesh Deshmukh and many others.
Total Dhamaal is a comedy of errors. The gags r good. Special mention is the appearance by the original comedy king, Johnny Lever, who lifts the entertainment with his Bengali scientist-pilot act.
Him trying to fly a makeshift chopper fitted with a 'rickshaw kick' and a ceiling fan is gold. Johnny Lever is impressive in his short cameo.
It is refreshing to see the duo of Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit come together on screen after 18 years. Their constant bickering as a couple is entertaining.
Javed Jaffrey will make you laugh with his child-like honesty and Sanjay Mishra with his English...,, but over done it 'bro bro bro bro'..!!
Movie doesn't rely on vulgar one-liners or double entendres and yet is packed with some funny moments, overall a clean film.
Just like most Indian comedy films, all the characters gather in a central place (zoo) in the climax. What follows is 15 minutes of bad VFX.
What the film guarantees for two hours is clean entertainment - a film with dialogues that can be seen with your full family sitting next to you. It is paisa-vasool and won't fail to entertain you.
One time watch..!!

Stupid film without logic

Don't listen to critics
ayeshakhalife16 August 2019
The movie is filled with alot alot of fun and excitement head to tail.
However story is very predictable because of its previous movies. Story is they all struggle and fight with all hurdles come in between their way to where money is kept. And end up donating to a zoo for a reason.
They are in pairs and my favourite pair us obviously Madhuri Dixit and Anil kapoor. Highwaaayyyyyyyy 🤣😛😛
All other actors have also done a greattttt job.
It's a complete family entertainment. No double meaning comedy. Finally a movie everyone from kids to old people can watch.
My fav scene is ofcourse the train tunnel scene. Damn it was too funny.
Movie is better than trailer 😜 Don't listen to critics.

I never had an answer when people asked me 2 questions
1--- what is the best movie you've seen?
2--- what is the worst movie you've seen?
I think I've got an answer for one of these questions
Btw Didn't Ajay, Madhuri and Anil read the script?

Worst in everything.
Blueyedboy22 February 2019
Worst in story, worst in cinematography, Worst acting ( even Ajay Anil and Madhuri was doing over acting). Arshad and ritesh was good. Pathetic cinematography and same old story to find hidden fortune. Few moments are good for laugh. Overall total disaster.
Dont they know how bad a movie is being made ???

Not Even a Partial Dhammal
taylorcoreyrkb2 March 2019
If you've really enjoyed the first Dhammal and hoping for the same with this one, then I tell you what you will be painfully disappointed. The plot, dialogues and action scenes all are just too much to digest. Total overacting should have been the title of this one. No on not the even the original Dhammal members have done justice to their character. 1 star for Arshad and 1 for Reitesh. Total waste of money and time.
Kinda full fledged fun with flaws like action scenes and logic
gaslulothe23 February 2019
We Have seen many cartoons and anime since childhood this one resembles them like action scenes in real life would kill you but they won't effect them and it misses logic and also the plot is nearly empty and resembles the first movie but the dialogues and situations can make you laugh through the film if you wanna have a good laugh You can enjoy the movie with kids and family don't compare it with the first just because this one has the same plot 1st is classic which you can watch countless times
Total Dhamaal - Bollywood's future is on Doomsday
arjuncshekartheofficial23 February 2019
Really it feels me that Total Dhamaal had Proven that Bollywood's future is on Doomsday. Worst, Worthless, Hopeless, Stupid movie ever. Just only a poor copy of Dhamaal with VFX only. Director Indra Kumar must have to be rethink, why did he directed such Cringeworthy movie despite having heavy competition from South Indian Films
Nice movie
gopalmanas24 February 2019
Good Entertainment !
zeekzetak23 February 2019
Some scenes were hilarious like railway tunnel, Hotel Highway South Indian, Full Moon Moon Helicopter adventure, Chindi Language, Desert Rope of Snake, Guduma, & Laddoo offerings. Accent of Lallan was full comedy ! The least comedy was from the Anil and Madhuri pair !
Childish Story & Time wasted
awaiskamran22 February 2019
Warning: Spoilers
This is story of fun in which only children can enjoy. This movie spoiled my time and money. Only overreacting and childish acting is seen with new nothing. If we compare the old dhamal movie it was ten star movie as compared to this zero star. I want to give zero rating what happened to our cinemas. Seriously very disappointed.
Bad
