Still not in a mood to watch mafia movies, chose this time a 'comic supernatural', Stree, for my weekend binge watch. Though based on a true urban legend in Karnataka and similar incidents reported from Thailand, Stree as expected of its genre tag stresses on the comical part more than the hauntings and jump scares. It delivers on its comical component with several moments of laugh, and never really attempts to give a seriously scary picture. Other than Rajkumar Rao and his two friends who provide those moments of good laughs with smartly written crisp dialogues, Pankaj Tripathi with minimalistic expressions amuses you too, a cameo by Vijay Raaz and the glamour provided by Shraddha who looked particularly lovely and desirable, makes it a watchable light movie though with a hidden satirical angle to it. Have an issue with the climax though, could have been better worked out, but still 6.5/10, it doesn't fail to entertain.
N.B.: I read the climax has been set up for a planned sequel, if so, it may be okay that way.
