Blackout is a comedy thriller film directed by devang bhavsar. The film started on a good note. Seeing vikrant massey in an animated character was not on my cards in big 2024, but he acted really well. That is the good thing about great actors, they can pull off diverse roles. The film gets a boost once sunil grover enters, and good lord he gobbles up with his screen presence. He outshadowed massey in various sequences. The black comedy, dispersed throughout guides the film. The lines given to karan sonawane and saurabh gadge are hilarious. They always come up with some crackers in between conversations. Mouni roy really needs to work on her acting. Ruhani sharma, anant joshi, jisshu sengupta and other fringe characters were decent. The second half literally wanders around to hundred directions. Anything and everything was happening in the second half. Twists after twists were coming but only one or two worked. How will the rest work without some good breathing space between scenes. After a point, the scenes looked reverse engineered. It didn't happen because of logic, but because of convenience. The screenplay, was losing steam because of this and suffers. The background score is great, I would say. The suspense and adrenaline is pumped up by the score. Some old songs are used with some wacky humour. I like that the film knows what it's doing and breaks the clatter sometimes. Because, in some scenes the chaos was overpowering the storytelling. The humour felt off to me in various scenes. The dialogues were not up to the mark. The scenes where massey imagines diamonds and jewels falling from the sky is brilliant. The editing style of the film is also pretty good. I wish the second half didn't throw so many curveballs in my direction. I would have loved it more.

Overdose Of Poor & Over the top acting. The Benchmark was set by Kareena Kapoor in Main prem Ki Deewani Hoon, but Vikrant Massey & Mouni Roy really came close for BLACKOUT. The concept was brilliant but the execution felt flat & it was predictable to the core. One night adventures are becoming the flavor of OTT's post the success of Lootcase but Lootcase was genuinely funny & Kunal Khemu has an exceptional comic timing which unfortunately Vikrant Massey lacks completely, so no love lost & being a non nepo kid, I wish Vikrant massey continues to shine in intense & emotional roles. Not at all typecasting him but he genuinely doesn't have a comical presence. Rest of the cast was average at its best barring Mr Joshi Sengupta who shines in a short cameo & one word to Mr Sunil Grover, how much lower you will stoop down in choosing your roles, we all have witnessed your absolute vulgar & cheap acts on the Netflix Kapil sharma show, you were considered the best part of the show for your portrayal of gutthi, Rinku Devi or Dr Gulati & we were so thrilled at your comeback but what we witnessed was absolute carnage. So not deviating from the topic, here are some honorable mentions if you want to enjoy Bollywood's one night adventure movies - Ek chalis Ki Last Local, Barah Aana, Sankat City, Mithya, Stoneman Murders, Trapped, Johnny Gaddar, Ugly.

A good time paas movie. Nice one.but Audience reviews Blackout (2022) Ram Wagh Posting publicly across Google Filter by All Sanju Sachdev a year ago Not at all recommended. Worst staff experienced at blackout. They are just perfect to spoil your festive evening well. Thats the reason it was not that full as 4 years back. I was also supprised. You Go out for service and feel however After spending 10 k you are not going to get at blackout. From desk to waiters to bouncers have super attitude that customer is nothing for them. They think if you are going to blackout its customer privilege but they are absolutely wrong as if you cant value customer people like me are not gonna visit. From entrance to order to service it was totally challenging there but main thing for which m giving them 1 star because 2 male bouncers misbehaved with me just I was calling my friends after getting out from washroom as they didn't pick so I was just wanna chk them on deck from outside area of disc. They started behaving rudely after explaining them. And not only 1 2nd came started humra time ho gya yhn jana allowed nh h. When I didn't go to disc when it was open why would I go when it's closed just to watch my friends who were up n I was on down floor they created the whole scene and managers everyone was supporting them. Worst ever experience I had anywhere. I must say if you want your value never ever visit places like this where so rude cheap attitudic staff. Vibrations won't allow you to sit on rooftop. Not soundproof at all. If you can bear that you can visit. ****If you are willing to tolerate rude staff behavior you can visit blackout.****

Blackout (2024) plunges viewers into a single, blackout-stricken night in Pune, India. Crime reporter Lenny D'Souza (Vikrant Massey) finds himself at the center of the chaos after a car accident leads him to a van full of dead men and cash. The ensuing events involve a motley crew of characters, including a hilarious alcoholic (Sunil Grover), dimwitted thieves (Karan Sonaware & Saurabh Ghadge), and a damsel-in-distress (Mouni Roy). Vikrant Massey shines as the harried Lenny, perfectly capturing his desperation and growing paranoia. Sunil Grover steals the show with his delightfully unhinged portrayal of Bewdya, offering genuine laugh-out-loud moments. The blackout creates a tense atmosphere, and the initial car crash sparks curiosity about the hidden secrets within the van. The film tries to juggle too many characters and subplots, leading to a messy narrative that loses focus. The introduction of new characters in the second half feels forced, and some plot twists are predictable. Blackout attempts to be a dark comedy, but the humor lands inconsistently. The attempts at emotional drama also feel out of place. The camerawork and editing are serviceable but don't particularly stand out. Blackout has its moments, thanks to the strong performances of Massey and Grover. However, the uneven screenplay and tonal inconsistencies prevent it from reaching its full potential. If you're looking for a fast-paced, light-hearted comedy, this might not be the best choice. But if you're curious about a film that takes a wild ride through a blackout night, it might be worth a watch with lowered expectations.

Overall, Blackout is engaging, uproarious, and a chaotic misadventure. It's silly and full of madness, even though the first half is mostly spent introducing characters. But the movie is aware of this, as there's also dialogue. The emotional drama and a fight sequence followed by that slows down the narrative for some time. The performances and jokes only make the adventure more enjoyable. Vikrant Massey's movie ends on a cliffhanger, so let's hope there's more to this frenzy. Blackout does push the limits in how shamelessly foolish it strives to be. That's seldom enough, though, at a time where screwball comedies count on the viewer's perception of reality. Blackout could have been sharp and entertaining had it constantly called itself out. But it remains surprisingly hollow and, at times, dull despite the visual restlessness. The chuckles-to-runtime ratio is poor.
