The latest installment in the Masti franchise, Mastiii 4, promises to revive the legacy of the early 2000s comedy series. However, the film fails to deliver, relying heavily on crude humor and outdated jokes. The storyline revolves around three married friends in the UK who discover a 'love visa' concept and demand the same from their wives, triggering a series of misunderstandings and wild confrontations. The cast, including Riteish Deshmukh, Vivek Oberoi, and Aftab Shivdasani, try to bring their signature charm to the film, but it's not enough to salvage the mess. Riteish Deshmukh stands out as the most committed to the project, but his sincerity is wasted on a screenplay that lacks self-awareness. Aftab Shivdasani's over-the-top performances feel intentional, but Vivek Oberoi's attempts at humor fall flat. The supporting cast, including Tusshar Kapoor and Genelia Deshmukh, have potential, but the writing fails to let them shine. The film's reliance on toilet humor and recycled one-liners becomes exhausting, and the pacing collapses after the interval. By the time the predictable twist arrives, viewers are already mentally checked out. The verdict is clear: Mastiii 4's attempt to reboot the franchise ends in overkill, with cringe-worthy comedy and hollow writing drowning out any potential humor. The film's chaotic and self-destructive approach to comedy makes it a disappointing addition to the series.
