The film delivers a promising tale of fun and lol moments. The first half is a fun and humorous rollercoaster ride with an engaging storyline and screenplay. The wedding scenes and the friends trip to Goa serve as the highlights of the film, with well-written and relatable dialogues and comic timing. The first half is a non-stop entertainment with witty jokes and engaging comic sequences.
But the second half goes a little slow-paced compared to the first half of the film. This shows forced humor, and it also looks less impactful than the first half. This film is a fun ride, but the film lacks a strong storyline, and the film only goes on with fun and comic dialogues.
Plus Points
Energetic performances by lead actors
Humorous wedding and Goa trip sequences
Perfect editing
Catchy and relatable music
Minus Points
Weak storyline with predictable moments.
Forced humor in the second half.
Lack of emotional depth or character development.
Mad Square is a lighthearted comic film that portrays fun over logic to make the film more enjoyable. But if the audience is looking for a story-oriented film, this film is not a good choice. Mad Square offers a continuous fun and comic sequence perfect for a weekend chill movie. If this film manages to reach the benchmark of Mad, there is a chance to another installment in the MAD Universe.
