Very weak and unrealistic storyline
johnfcouvaras20 June 2021
Compared you the first two movies, this is a poor excuse of make-it-up as you go, and anything for the sake of it.

Storyline is patheticly weak, bordering on embarrassing in places.

Some stereotypes but a good comedy
ChrisMaltese12 June 2021
Its a comedy. So Indian personalities are exaggerated but thats fine in broad comedy. Not a lesson in actual Indian culture so do not be harsh. Jealousy, rivalry, newly weds, parents, etc, typical family ... i liked it.

The acting is bad, the story is silly.

Bad acting Badly written Not worth a watch.

Cliched storyline Not a single cast member was worthy of screentime.

The Kandasamys...
TharsheyN13 June 2021
The movie overall is pretty good and is enjoyable to watch. However it falls short of the first two films in the series.

The acting was pretty good, though maybe slightly overdone here and there. The storyline itself was a bit weak and felt as if the directors and scriptwriters wanted to make a third movie, couldn't decide on what it should be about and ended up with this script. While not terrible the storyline could have been a bit stronger and done a bit more to include the whole cast. Jodie and her husband, While in the movie and having a scene or two to themselves just weren't utilized much and ended up just hanging around in every frame not adding or contributing much.

While a slightly stronger storyline would have been appreciated as well as better utilization of all characters available the movie overall was still quite enjoyable to watch and had a few good jokes here and there that had me laughing. The ending dance scene was a bit of surprise as well and a welcome addition to the film.

The whole addition of Preggies baby sister, Baby... was a weird change/addition to the film and the stereotypes that were showered on the Indians were a bit overdone as well but it can be forgiven considering the movie series and it's aims and goals from the first movie.

A solid 7/10 from me! If you enjoyed the first two films then do give this one a watch as you will still probably like it.

I have seen better.
ourkiwikiwi9 June 2021
I watched the trailer and it looked good. The movie was dragged out, The story was flat, the acting was bad.

Seems it looked more like a advertisement as the movie was filled with brand names and less acting.

Disappointing storyline and acting. Could not sit through more than 15 minutes.

FAVOURITE MOVIE OF ALL TIME
delagivender5 June 2021
I loved this movie so much and the graphics were stunning for a local production! I watched this movie with my family and we could not stop laughing! I love that it also empowers woman to stand up for themselves and have a voice of their own! Very good movie would honestly recommend.

MONOTONOUS AND DREARY
melvin_naidoo7 June 2021
The movie lacked a steadfast storyline with extracts of the cast and their tribulations being broadcast to create one. Very mediocre acting on most of the cast. A very fictitious and ancient personification of indian people in reflection to the current persona of an Indian person or family today.

Cliched, laboured, poor acting
devanp-978578 June 2021
Started watching, intrigued that it's No 1 on first day. Disappointing. None of the characters are interesting except potentially the grandmother, but she does not quite pull it off. Storyline predictable, cliched. Acting not up to standard expected on Netflix. Laboured. Couldn't finish first episode. Maybe it gets better but not going to find out.

So regressive
divyajay-833875 June 2021
Didn't know Indians in South Africa are this regressive... women making tea is one thing but seriously thinking not getting pregnant is the end of the world? ADOPT!!! Make movies that resonate with the present times.

Switch off your brain for this one!!
mikeadriano3 July 2021
Overly cliched and acted, weak predictable storyline, terrible casting, it's cringe at it's finest! But not the overly "so bad that it's good" kind. Typical of producers who want to milk the cash cow while the Kandasamy's name is still "hot". Watch it drunk or whilst doing some chore like ironing or doing the dishes. It won't really matter if you miss parts of the movie as it is very unoriginal and predictable, your brain will figure out what's coming next. One star for the movie and another for Jailoshnie's legs, she has really nice stems.

Enjoyable!
smc-202734 June 2021
I watched this movie with no expectations and I was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed it tremendously. Loved the grandma!!!!!!!!!! All characters are very believable.. And the story was simple and sweet.

Nothing new but still very refreshing....

Funny
maghipsdontlie17 June 2021
Not for everyone, good if you want to mindlessly watch something to laugh at and cringe at but feel good inside. If you like movies that you can watch without paying too much care about it and giggle every once and awhile, feeling good inside, this is a good pick!
