Udita Jhunjhunwala Firstpost Shukla creates an intimate world in which the obvious tropes do pop up. The pitch is often too loud for film and, with the staging of some scenes, the goings-on occasionally feel more suitable for the theatre than for the big screen. Rated: 2.5/5 Mar 14, 2019 Full Review Anupama Chopra Film Companion 102 Not Out is uneven but heartfelt. Despite the flaws, the emotions connect. And if like me, you are of a certain vintage, you will get a nostalgic head-rush when you see Rishi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan in the same frame. Rated: 3/5 Aug 28, 2018 Full Review Simon Abrams RogerEbert.com This chintzy portion of screenwriter Saumya Joshi's consistently sentimental narrative is mostly bearable thanks to Kapoor's comic timing and Bachchan's seemingly boundless energy. Rated: 2.5/4 May 5, 2018 Full Review Poulomi Das Arré Despite his guilt-inducing tactics, the only message that 102 Not Out ironically disseminates is the abject need for educating our birth-givers in the language of parental independence. Mar 11, 2019 Full Review Rahul Desai Film Companion I suspect that this is the kind of average fare that relies on who its viewers are. Many parents might choose to overlook the flimsiness and view this as a winning unbeaten century in a chase. I'm not so sure others may look at it the same way. Rated: 2/5 Aug 27, 2018 Full Review Sukanya Verma Rediff.com 102 Not Out never shrugs off the feeling of made-for-stage or garbled, lost-in-translation Gujarati texture. Rated: 2.5/5 May 4, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

r 9 Good fun and surprisingly nails the sweetness too. '102 Not Out' is a film that I had a pleasant time with. Amitabh Bachchan and Rishi Kapoor are terrific in this release, with those two making for an entertaining double act. Jimit Trivedi and Vijay Raaz are solid too, albeit in much more minor roles. I wouldn't say anything comedically made me laugh, though the humour is still one of the film's main positives. It, in fact, holds its own when it comes to the more sombre bits, which are put together almost perfectly. I thought it would stray into cringe/cheese territory at some point, but this flick never does... it actually comes across impressively well. The music is also pretty good, I particularly enjoyed "Bachche Ki Jaan" - even though it does sound out of place here and there, yet again finds a way to work. "Badumbaaa" makes for a decent outro piece, shame about the (minor, in how often its seen - editor had a conscience?) use of blackface for the music video though - not that it was ever fine, but in 2018? Come on... Overall, this did indeed surprise me. Hearty. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member It was a delight to watch Amitabh and Rishi, effortlessly bringing their individual characters to life, that we stop caring for the story which was unremarkable and remain fixated on just seeing them on screen. The screenplay was top-notch, there were hardly any lengthy scenes or boring emotional dialogues. I liked the scene when to prove an important point, Dattatraya calls up a number in the USA and puts the conversation on speaker - it was refreshing to see this straight batting within a family. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Hate this movie along with baghban and bhootnath. All show just only one perspective of a clingy father. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review abhishek s Rishi Kapoor is so versatile. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I enjoyed Rishi Kapoor expressions through out the film and Jimit Trivedi performance is another best thing. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Unique storyline. Lots of laughs. Good moral message. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
