Welcome to the Jungle X review

Some found it loud, while others enjoyed the humour and performances, especially by Akshay Kumar. Many called it "absurd", "unfunny", "underwhelming" and "brainrot entertainer".

One user wrote, "Welcome To The Jungle is filled with moments that make your heart full with laughter and will make sure you leave the theatres with a smile. The film leans into its big comedy setup and delivers scene after scene that aims for a light, entertainer vibe."

He also praised Akshay's "effortless comic timing" and anchoring the film with confidence. The user also heaped praise on the ensemble cast.

Another user wrote that the first half was filled with frequent laughter, but found the entire second half "boring and underwhelming."

"Most of the laughs feel forced, and the film tries to cash in on iconic moments from Hera Pheri and the climax of Welcome, but none of it really lands. That said, there are still a few genuinely entertaining portions," he added.

One called Welcome to the Jungle "a high octane masala ride." Another called it "the biggest disaster of the year."

Backed by Firoz A Nadiadwala, the film boasts a stellar ensemble cast, including Paresh Rawal, Rajpal Yadav, Suniel Shetty, Jackie Shroff, Raveena Tandon, Disha Patani, Jacqueline Fernandez and Arshad Warsi.
