The era of comedy films is back, and Welcome To The Jungle is leading the charge. The multi-starrer, which released in cinemas on Friday, has left audiences pleasantly surprised. Social media is abuzz with positive reactions, with users on Reddit sharing their reviews.
One user, who went into the film with 'zero expectations,' was surprised by the movie's humor and meta jokes. They praised the performances of Farida Jalal and Kiran Kumar, calling them 'fantastic.'
Another user, who also went in with low expectations, was pleasantly surprised by the film's absurdity and parody of the industry. They noted that the movie is 'mindless comedy' that is a 'tad long.'
Directed by Ahmed Khan, Welcome To The Jungle stars Akshay Kumar, Suniel Shetty, Rajpal Yadav, Paresh Rawal, Jackie Shroff, Raveena Tandon, Disha Patani, Jacqueline Fernandez, and many others. The film's makers have been praised for their unapologetic approach to humor, with the cast and crew operating on the same wavelength.
HT's review of the film notes that the first half benefits from the comic timing of veterans Paresh Rawal and Rajpal Yadav, with Farhad Samji's dialogues providing ample support. The gags come thick and fast, and more often than not, they land beautifully.
