Raaz Reboot is one of the most anticipated movies of this year and this franchise is quite successful. Maybe the previous movies were not critically acclaimed but they are all commercially successful. It is a horror movie franchise and the story lines of those movies are different from each other. The first Raaz movie is a very good horror thriller and a very commercially successful movie. Then the predecessors have not achieved the good rate but commercially successful. For the success story of this franchise, I was eagerly waiting for this movie.

The producers took Vikram Bhatt as a director and this is a very good decision because he is a very good horror movie creator. They cast Emraan Hashmi and I think this is the best decision for this movie. I know Emran Hashmi is a good actor. His previous venture Azhar is not a successful movie but he shined in that movie. And for this movie when the performance is concern he is equally good. Kriti Kharbanda is OK but nothing to shout about. Gaurav Arora is strictly OK.

The direction of the movie OK but not great. The director had to concentrate on the story and the story is not quite imposing. The script and the screenplay are not rigid and there are plenty of plot holes in that. Editing is very choppy and music is not great.

After all, this is a Raaz Franchise and very anticipated movie for this years so you can take a chance for this movie.

Raaz Reboot--- Movie opens in Transylvania (Romania) Wow! what a set for a Horror movie. Avid Horror movie viewers will get what I am talking about. The Wow part ends and what you are left is terrible 2 hours. Vikram Bhatt is always inspired by Hollywood movies. In the past his movies have some share of success but mostly failures. Guess! what this time he made this movie inspired by his own horror movies and the result is a disaster. You feel at times you are watching Raaz, shades of Raaz 2, 1920, 1920 evil returns and what not.

The movie's script is thin as a wafer. Vikram Bhatt feels the Indian audience are fools. Viewers have been watching possession movies since "The Exorcist" so they know the standards. Mr Bhatt is still using those iconic scenes in his movies. But this time he is not able to depict that convincingly which he was successful in 1920. English anymore is not a barrier for the Indian audience as they have watched "The Conjuring 2" this year dubbed in Hindi. Thereafter, you are serving them Raaz Reboot is like instead of serving fresh food you are serving long-standing food which will destroy the consumer's appetite and make them feel sick The climax is of Bhatt's earlier venture 1920 as it is. Though in 1920 Adah Sharma and Rajneesh Duggal looked convincing in the climax. But if you compare the climax with Raaz Reboot both Adah and Rajneesh deserve an Oscar. The word Fu@# is being used in glory throughout the movie

The makeup of the ghost is the worst you have seen in the recent times. Bad background score, almost the same that was used in 1920 but here it does not work and is just a cacophony. Pathetic acting by Kirti Kharbanda and Gaurav Arora..Imraan Hashmi is a lost opportunity. Bhatt's last venture though he was not the director, 1920 London looks masterpiece compared to this movie. Vikram Bhatt is walking in Ramgopal Verma's shoes now. Strictly avoidable movie

I saw this film in theatre with my family. It is not a Raaz reboot, it's basically a reboot of Sharman Joshis 1920 London, which was pathetic n laughable. Read my reviews of 1920 London. Vikram Bhatt jus wrote the story of 1920 London. It had a very low budget. It had awful set locations, fake deserts n mansions, bad direction by some Desai, awful songs n unknown producers. Even the costumes of Sharmaan n others were laughable. Very fake London set up. Whereas Vikram directed Raaz reboot himself. The Bhatts n T- series r the producers n of course it has Hashmi who is born to play such roles effortlessly. The cinematography in Raaz reboot was good. Some of the scenes of Romania were well shot n it had that creepy feel to it. The editing was better than 1920 London n the songs of Raaz reboot were much better than 1920 London. The plot of 1920 London was ridiculous. At least the plot of Raaz reboot was bearable. At first even I thot that the twist might be the same as 1920 London's. I thot even Hashmi was doing some mumbo jumbo magic like what Sharmaan did in 1920 London. Agree that the theme of possession has been done so many times, right from The exorcist to The rite. One thing which always bugs me in possession movies (as a gym/yoga instructor) is y do they hav to do hyperextension of the joints. R the demons really fond of yoga? The face of the possessed person is getting monotonous. Same ol cut marks n eye color. May b Vikram wanted to do the same what the makers of Exorcist the beginning n Exorcist the dominion did. Two versions in a short span of time. The scene in Raaz where the possessed tells to the priest about his hidden dark secrets was done in the first 1920 too, where the demon talks to the doctor about his shady past. This kinda demonic feeding on fears n revealing secrets was very well done in Gallows hill aka The damned. The holding of the mangalsutra n getting rid of the demons is getting cheesy n too fake man. Remove the religious tone man. Y can't they simply end with the demons taking away one soul or somebody sacrificing their soul. The scenes of the dark shadows standing far away n the scenes of Hashmi as a ghost talking to the husband in the end were better. The museum where they had some horror images was good. Wanna visit that place if it really exists.
