It seems like the director forgot that even horror movies needs a storyline and he needs to get out the shell of scaring people with mere superstitions! For two hours, this movie seems like a complete waste if you were looking out something that can really fright you! What best can be said about this third series of the horror movie is that please give it a full stop! Sharman Joshi only saves the grace of the film! But that doesn’t mean that he fitted the role in the best way possible. We suggest that Sharman seriously needs to review the choice of his films. After Hate Story 3, this is another terrible choice for an actor like him. The makers should realize that rocking chairs, creaking doors, blood dripping from the ceiling are old tricks and the audience is no more interested in watching out them! A COMPLETE DISAPPOINTMENT in the name of horror!! Watch the film only if you don’t have anything else to do. (WARNING- It is completely impossible to witness this yawn fest for more than two hours).

Sharman Joshi's 1920 London is like most of Bollywood horror movies: boring and predictable. Cliched dialogues, unrequited love angle and romantic songs... the film has everything but scares. If that isn't enough, you have actors who look blank throughout the film and barely hold your attention. Sharman Joshi, however, does a decent job in comparison to his co-stars Meera Chopra and Vishal Karwal. Sharman Joshi has been trying to experiment with different kinds of films but his strategy doesn't seem to be working. He is a terrific actor but needs to very cautious while choosing scripts. It's sad that makers of horror movies usually end up ignoring the script and logic completely. No wonder, this genre hasn't made it big in India yet. But if Sharman wasn't in the film, 1920 London would have been a very painful ride.

Hats off for at least the ambition — and there are plenty of those to doff, this being early England and all. Few films, fewer still with the limited scale of a Vikram Bhatt horror, swing as frequently between 1920 London and 1920 “somewhere in Mewar, Rajasthan” — on streamers no less. An infinitesimal number, hopefully, do so chasing an “aatma” that resides in a locket.  This is the third in Bhatt’s series of films with 1920 in the title, and the locket finds our couple, Shivangi (Meera Chopra) and Veer-sa (Vishal Karwal), on one of those afternoons that they spend lovingly having tea together in a castle that should give the Queen something to think about (or at least Will and Kate). During a song sequence establishing both that love and that wealth, Veer-sa acquires a barrister degree.  As for your downed spirits, there is Kesar-ma. Even when adorned in a dowdy gown with a dowdier scarf, Sushmita Mukherjee aka Kitty keeps us hoping there’s more behind those still-twinkly eyes.
