Mastiii 4 Review
I walked into Mastiii 4 expecting a brainless comedy. I’m fine with silly, as long as it’s fun. But this film doesn’t just ask you to leave your brain at the door — it throws your logic, taste and basic sense of humanity out of the theatre completely.
By the end, the only real “mastiii” was the film’s makers having a laugh at the audience’s patience.
A Plot That Should’ve Been Rejected at Idea Stage
Within the first ten minutes, the movie makes it crystal clear: there will be no logic here.
The central concept is something called a “love visa” — basically a license to cheat. Husbands try to convince their wives to let them have an affair for one week every year. Then, magically, the wives also want their own “love visa”. That’s the entire emotional and moral core of the film.
Forget realism, even basic human behaviour is missing. The idea is so ridiculous and poorly handled that it becomes hard to even be offended — you’re just tired and confused.
Most of the time you’re asking:
- What is happening?
- Why is it happening?
- Who thought this was a good idea?
And the film never answers.
Performances: Overacting Olympics
From the very first scene, Ritesh starts off with such loud, exaggerated overacting that there’s no room left to escalate. Every lead actor follows the same path — yelling, mugging, and hamming their way through every frame.
It doesn’t feel like comedy; it feels like a desperate attempt to force laughter out of the audience.
- Ritesh: Overacts from frame one and never calms down.
- Every other lead: Competes for “who can overact more”.
- Tusshar Kapoor: Enters randomly as a Bhojpuri-style character and it just doesn’t work. The cameo feels so pointless that it’s like he’s there just to show how badly even a small role can be done.
- Arshad Warsi: Appears out of nowhere in the timeline, with no organic build-up, like someone dragged and dropped his character from another film.
You don’t feel like you’re watching characters — just actors in costume trying very hard and achieving very little.
Writing & Dialogues: When Jokes Are Just Noise
The dialogues are unbearably bad. Not “so bad they’re good”; just bad.
They’re crude without being funny, loud without being clever, and repetitive without landing a single memorable punchline. At some point, the lines become so cheap and lazy that even the attempt at humour dies.
There were moments where the film clearly wanted the audience to laugh…
But the theatre stayed completely neutral.
No laughter, no gasps, no emotion — just silence.
It’s actually impressive how a “comedy” can make a full hall feel nothing.
Logic? Forget It. Humanity? That Too.
The filmmakers don’t just abandon logic; they casually walk away from basic humanity too.
Random foreign locations are thrown in — the film is partly shot abroad, but why? There’s no real narrative or emotional reason. It feels like someone just approved a travel plan and wrote a script around it.
The “love visa” concept is treated like some fun, modern twist on marriage instead of the deeply messed-up idea it is. The film never properly questions it, never explores it, and never earns the right to joke about it.
It’s not edgy. It’s just empty.
Music: Even Worse Than the Dialogues
If you think the dialogues are the lowest point, wait till the songs arrive.
The music is somehow even worse — forgettable tunes, annoying placement, and zero recall value. Instead of lifting the film, the songs drag it down further and stretch an already painful experience.
Why Did They Even Do This Film?
That’s the real mystery of Mastiii 4.
The film is bad, sure — but the bigger question is:
Why did these actors even sign this?
With this level of writing and concept, it feels like everyone involved just closed their eyes, trusted the brand name, and hoped audiences wouldn’t care. But there’s a difference between harmless stupidity and outright lazy filmmaking, and Mastiii 4 firmly sits in the latter.
Honestly, YouTubers like Harsh Beniwal have made tighter, funnier, and more coherent content in their sketches than what this big-budget comedy manages in its entire runtime.
Final Verdict
If I were on the censor board, I wouldn’t even bother rating this film — not because it’s bold or shocking, but because it doesn’t deserve the privilege of being taken seriously enough to classify.
Mastiii 4 isn’t just a bad comedy; it’s a completely avoidable one.
No logic, no humour, no soul, and a theatre full of people who neither laughed nor cried — just waited for it to end.
Rating: 1/5 – A masterclass in how not to make a comedy.
