If you were looking for a thrilling rollercoaster ride of a film, I hate to break it to you: but buckle up for a ride thatâs more like a rusty merry-go-round. Welcome to the world of âHocus Focus.â Iâm Review Rani, your guide through this cinematic wilderness, and today weâre going to dissect this so-called âthrillerâ.
âHocus Focusâ attempts to blend the allure of a bank heist with the raw, voyeuristic thrill of found footage. Our story revolves around Bubli Khan (Sona Bhandari), a woman who enjoys the finer things in life (and a LOT of men). Her love interests include a married man sheâs hell-bent on making her own, a law-breaking Ajit Pandit (Suchhi Kumar), and our very own law-enforcer, Inspector Khan (Satinder Singh Gahlot).
The plot thickens when a mysterious voyeur convinces Bubli to join a band of misfits for a bank heist. Each participant has their own reasons for joining this not-so-merry band: for Bubli, itâs money (shocker!); for Ajit, itâs love; for two other cronies, itâs a shot at a life of luxury; and for the bank manager, itâs to pay off his gambling debts. The puppet-master behind this whole fiasco convinces them that nothing could go wrong (famous last words). But of course, this wouldnât be much of a movie if everything went according to plan, would it?
Unfortunately, director Paierry Dodejaâs experiment falls flatter than a pancake. The film tries to capture BubliâsâŚerr⌠âcolourfulâ love life through multiple lenses, leading to an overload of explicit content that feels more like a cheap stunt than a narrative necessity. The sheer number of characters further muddles the plot, preventing any meaningful character development.
Despite its intriguing premise, âHocus Focusâ fails to live up to its promise. Itâs like ordering a gourmet burger and getting a soggy sandwich instead. The film prioritises shock value over substance, leaving us with a jumbled, unsatisfying mess thatâs more yawn-inducing than tension-filled.
__Raniâs Wrap-Up__: âHocus Focusâ turns out to be less of a thrilling heist drama and more of a cautionary tale for filmmakers: ambition doesnât always translate into a good movie. If youâre seeking a thrilling, edge-of-your-seat cinematic experience, Iâd suggest looking elsewhere. This oneâs just hocus pocus without the magic. đđđŹ
