Tarun
Mansukhani
stepped
in
as
director
for
the
fifth
Housefull
movie,
starring
Akshay
Kumar,
Riteish
Deshmukh,
Abhishek
Bachchan,
Sanjay
Dutt,
Fardeen
Khan,
Jacqueline
Fernandez,
Nana
Patekar,
Chitrangda
Singh,
Nargis
Fakhri,
Sonam
Bajwa,
Soundarya
Sharma,
Nikitin
Dheer
and
Johnny
Lever.
From
our
review:
Housefull
5
is
so
rubbish,
you’d
think
none
of
the
actors,
17
or
so
of
them,
have
any
inkling
as
to
where
the
script
is
heading
and
take
the
extempore
challenge
too
far.

Directed
by
Farhad
Samji,
Housefull
4
stars
Bobby
Deol,
Kriti
Sanon,
Pooja
Hegde,
Chunky
Panday
and
Jacqueline
Fernandez,
besides
the
regular
Akshay
and
Riteish.
Rana
Daggubati
makes
a
special
appearance.
The
film
was
initially
directed
by
Sajid
Khan
but
due
to
#MeToo
allegations,
he
was
dropped
from
the
film.
From
our
review:
Housefull
4
clearly
does
not
offer
anything
new,
story-wise.
Even
the
reincarnation
concept
is
done-to-death.

Director
Brothers
Sajid-Farhad
bring
on
the
laughs
in
this
installment,
which
stars
Lisa
Haydon
and
Jackie
Shroff
besides
the
other
actors.
From
our
review:
Housefull‘s
tradition
of
lowbrow
humour
is
faithfully
carried
on
through
Housefull
3‘s
relentless
stock
of
sexist
and
racist
jokes.

Housefull
2
was
directed
by
Sajid
Khan,
who
co-wrote
the
film
with
Sajid-Farhad.
This
was
the
first
time
the
film
had
a
big
cast,
with
actors
like
Rishi
Kapoor,
Randhir
Kapoor,
Mithun
Chakraborty,
Asin,
John
Abraham,
Shreyas
Talpade,
Zareen
Khan,
Shazahn
Padamsee
and
Boman
Irani
joining
in.
Housefull
2
was
based
on
the
Malayalam
film
Mattupetti
Machan.
From
our
review:
Housefull
2
is
shamefully
bad.
So
bad
that
Ranjeet
—
the
villain
of
yore
—
who
appears
in
one
scene,
is
the
most
dignified
thing
about
the
film.
Housefull,
2010

The
first
of
the
Housefull
series
was
directed
by
Sajid
Khan,
and
starred
Akshay
Kumar,
Riteish
Deshmukh,
Arjun
Rampal,
Lara
Dutta,
Deepika
Padukone
and
Jiah
Khan,
with
a
supporting
cast
of Boman
Irani,
Chunky
Pandey,
Randhir
Kapoor,
Lillete
Dubey
and
Malaika
Arora.
Jacqueline
Fernandez
put
in
an
item
number.
From
our
review:
The
film
itself
is
just
as
distasteful.
Just
as
you’ve
stopped
cringing
at
a
typical
farcical
stereotype,
another
one
comes
along:
the
black
baby
makes
way
for
the
gay
jokes,
after
which
come
pun-laden
Sikhs
Santa
and
Banta,
all
while
people
reassuringly
tell
their
elder
brothers
things
like
‘oh,
of
course
he’s
rich.’
You
get
the
drift.

is
your
favourite
