ETimes review
Our exclusive ETimes review for the film reads, “The songs by Shaan Rahman and the background score by Dawn Vincent work well, and there are a few comic dialogues and moments—like the High Range Che Guevara reference—that make you laugh heartily. However, apart from these, there is little that stands out as worthy of a third installment in the franchise. The supposed comedy, unfortunately, feels forced in places, and there is little spontaneity or organic humor in situations that are meant to be funny.“The review further read, “The length of the film also feels unwarranted, given that this part serves more as a build-up than a film in itself. Even when evaluated through the lens of a spoof, it is not inventive enough.”
