Jolly LLB 3 reviews: What is the Internet saying?
Netizens were raving about the film being a classic family film and lauded Saurabh Shukla’s performance. While the appreciation was a constant feature, several viewers compared it to the other films in the franchise. “Jolly LLB 3 is good, But too many inconsistencies in the movie. Not better than Part 2 & Part 1 for sure. The subject is too good. Emotion tries to hit you. Comedy is a breath of fresh air. Outstanding comedy & that’s exactly what saved the movie. Drama lacks depth. Good. Not great,” read a review online.
Some audiences called it worth the money, while others criticised it for its “pre-1991 cinema” with a “weak storyline”. Some even felt that the sequel did not seem fresh but reins due to its strong performance and humour.
