Critic Reviews for Good Newwz

All Critics (16) | Top Critics (3) | Fresh (12) | Rotten (4)

The good thing about Good Newwz then is that it gives [Akshay] Kumar a much needed opportunity to shed the boring nobility, let his hair down and play a normal man next door, one who can be despicable and offensive but perhaps not irredeemably so.

Namrata Joshi
The Hindu
Good Newwz works best when it is being its bawdy, silly, raucous self.

December 27, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Shubhra Gupta
The Indian Express
For Kumar, Kapoor Khan and some truly laugh-out-loud moments, Good Newwz is the lightness needed to round off the year.

Udita Jhunjhunwala

Unfortunately, the complexity and depth inherent in the principal plot point remain beyond the ken of a screenplay that thrives on broad strokes.

Saibal Chatterjee
NDTV
Overall, Good Newwz never tries to attempt something too ambitious or big or new. It's happy to be its good-looking safe self and that has worked in its favour.

Stutee Ghosh
The Quint
Slick Bollywood comedy about IVF has adult themes.

Kat Halstead
Common Sense Media
Good Newwz has some great songs and apartment porn, but is a mess when it comes to the story it's trying to tell.

Radhika Menon
Decider
An easygoing comedy that finds both genuine humour and pathos in a high-concept premise that's entirely possible in real life, Good Newwz is by far the best film released in 2019 to feature any of the four central actors.

Musanna Ahmed
Film Inquiry
We get a talented cast led by Akshay Kumar and Kareena Kapoor Khan, a story that resonates with parents and those desperate to begin their family, and a delightful mix of comedy and emotions that never gets preachy.

Monika Rawal Kukreja
Hindustan Times
The most dangerous thing about Good Newwz is that it's an easy crowd-pleaser. It isn't obviously apparent, but the film is narrated from a dizzying perspective of privilege.

Rahul Desai
Film Companion
If Diljit Dosanjh's persona were a movie, I'd imagine it'd be something like this: genial, casual, comfortable with its blingy brightness, not particularly out to transform the world but impossible to resist.

Baradwaj Rangan
Film Companion
Good Newwz is loud, silly and cheesy in places but is also funny by and large. It does make you laugh and hence this adult comedy is certainly worth a one-time watch...
