Shaka Laka Boom Boom – Magic Pencil Returns Review

Just when you begin to believe that the show couldn't get any worse, it does. The channel 'DK Films' is relatively to new to the world of cinematography, their primary focus being VFX, I wasn't expecting wonders when I first started watching the show, but I, in no way was expecting an almost comical and atrocious dramatization rebelling to all senses.

For the first half, it seems almost to be a parody of the action genre, anticipate to be completely thrown off when you find it's not. It is almost like "The room", but much dingier.

The story is set to follow the journey of Charchit (Charchit Kaushik) as he investigates the mysterious circumstances under which his magician father left to never return. He struggles as clues do not add up and he comes in possession of a powerful magic charm (a pencil) that could finally serve him all the answers with the guiding aid of Narayan Narayan (Dushyant Kapoor) who protects him and the pencil from being captured by the evil powers.

Portrayal of characters is insipid and bad, actors fail to deliver any dialogue convincingly, dialogues being completely irrelevant and ill-considered to top it all. The only aspect even remotely suffer-able are the computer graphics, and not in any way call for the rebuke that writing and acting does. Maybe it is for a completely different set of audience, but definitely can in no way be recommended to an action enthusiast.
