Housefull 5 Trailer: Seems Like A High-Budget, Tiring Comedy Ride –

Housefull 5 Trailer:

The trailer of Housefull 5 was released today and it certainly does not exceed expectations. It promises another star-studded addition to the comedy franchise, but this time around, the magic seems to be wearing thin. Despite the film’s grand scale and high production values, the trailer unfolds at a surprisingly sluggish pace. The humor, once a defining strength of the series, feels mostly forced and uninspired in this outing.

While a few recycled gags from previous installments manage to elicit a smile, the overall comedic impact is lacking. The film appears to be leaning heavily on slapstick and over-the-top scenarios without offering much freshness. What further undermines the excitement is a murder mystery plot that feels heavily borrowed from Hollywood films, lacking the originality or cleverness needed to stand out. Jackie’s Choti Bacchi Hai Kya? was absolute fun!

The trailer also raises concerns about the film’s commercial viability. With such a massive ensemble cast and a big-budget production (around 350 crores), recovering costs may prove challenging unless the film resonates strongly with audiences. In the end, Housefull 5 seems to rely too much on brand loyalty and less on actual content, offering spectacle over substance. Whether that gamble pays off remains to be seen when the film hits theaters. It's an era of sequels, so the film might benefit from that, but how much? That is the question, as the budget is quite high.

Directed by Tarun Mansukhani, Housefull 5 stars Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Jacqueline Fernandez, Sonam Bajwa, Nargis Fakhri, Sanjay Dutt, Jackie Shroff, Nana Patekar, Chitrangada Singh, Fardeen Khan, Chunky Panday, Johnny Lever, Shreyas Talpade, Dino Morea, Ranjeet, Soundarya Sharma, Nikitin Dheer, and Akashdeep Sabir. The film is set to be released on June 5, 2025.
