Ginny Wedss Sunny 2 Release Live Updates: 'Script Fails To Cover Up Shortcomings'

A user @fenil_seta said, “GinnyWedssSunny2 Certain scenes are so silly and childish that one wonders how it even  got approved in the first place. Even the music is lacklustre.”

He added, “#GinnyWedssSunny2 rests on a weak storyline but it could have made for a decent  entertainer. Sadly, the script fails to cover up the shortcomings and even the direction is not up to the mark. A few scenes here and there are lovely.”

The user further wrote, “Also, performances and appealing cinematography make the film bearable. On the other hand, barely any joke lands. One ‘funny’ scene in the first half is embarrassing. Several developments are forced merely to drive the narrative forward.”

Ginny Wedss Sunny 2 Release Live Updates: Social Media Says Film 'Misses The Magic'

Michael Release Live Updates: Fan Slams Critics, Says 'His Story Continues'

A person on X, @avhr797, watched Michael and said that the legend’s story continues. It can never be accommodated in one single film and hence the criticisms.

“Watched #Michael last night, and I think some of the criticism misses the film intent.… Its like expecting a complete life story within a 2hr runtime feels misplaced… Yeah people he is MICHEAL JACKSON, his story cant be contained in a single film especially when the film clearly ends with “his story continues,” signaling a broader narrative beyond this chapter… It wonders me how many didn’t get this… What the film chooses to focus on his childhood and abusive upbringing is not a minor detail but a defining foundation of who he becomes… Instead of treating it as an incomplete biopic it makes more sense to view it as a selective character study on a part… Isn’t that something worth talking about?… We are all used to seeing drastic dramatic arcs in biopics but here there’s a deeper emotional arc, and anyone paying attention will understand it… and it still amazes me how people didn’t understand the line, “HIS STORY WILL CONTINUE.,” he said.
