Sarika Rawat is literally screaming at the top of her lungs inside a damp, flickering warehouse while a guy with a pipe threatens to smash a rusty television set into oblivion.

Honestly, why does every single bad guy in older bollywood movies always choose to hang out in abandoned industrial zones with terrible lighting because it makes zero practical sense to run a shady criminal enterprise next to exposed wiring and leaking water pipes.

Let us back up a second because System is a wild ride even for hindi films that usually love throwing kitchen sinks at the audience.

Neha Rajvansh is introduced early on looking way too calm for someone who is supposedly trapped inside a bureaucratic nightmare where nobody cares about anyone.

She plays this character who tries to fix corruption or whatever while wearing kurtis that honestly look super comfortable for running away from goons.

Ravi Rajvansh shows up too, doing this intense brooding thing where he stares blankly at walls and occasionally delivers punchlines that feel like they were written on a napkin five minutes before shooting.

And then Adinath Kothare enters the frame bringing some actual energy to the screen, though he spends half his scenes adjusting a leather jacket that honestly looks two sizes too big for his shoulders.

Stuff happens.

People argue about files and folders in government offices for what feels like three straight business days.

The editing cuts wildly between a serious boardroom shouting match about embezzled funds and a sudden, completely unprompted romantic song sequence where the actors are suddenly dancing around plastic trees in a studio that smells faintly of fresh paint.

God, the placement of that song is just terrible because Neha is crying about her ruined life two seconds ago and now she is spinning in a pink scarf like everything is totally fine.

We hit the interval block right when the tension is peaking and a bomb is supposedly ticking under a desk, which is peak bollywood drama at its finest.

Everyone takes a breather to eat samosas while the screen flashes intermission in huge red letters.

After the break, the plot just accelerates into pure chaos and you have to pay close attention or you will completely miss how three major supporting characters switch sides, get kidnapped, and escape through a ventilation shaft in a span of ninety seconds.

The villains keep talking about their master plan to control the entire financial system using floppy disks and landline telephones, which dates this movie in the funniest way possible.

Sarika Rawat gets tied to a wooden chair for reasons that are never really explained by the script, but she manages to untie herself using a discarded paperclip she finds stuck in the heel of her boot.

Everyone converges on the final showdown location which is yet another rooftop with dramatic wind machines blowing dust directly into the camera lens.

Ravi and Adinath punch out like twenty different henchmen who are wearing matching blue tracksuits for some reason, and honestly, pay attention to the guy in the back left during the big fight because he takes a fake punch so early that he falls down before anyone even swings at him.

The main baddie gets cornered near a ledge, drops a heavy metal briefcase that spills thousands of fake currency notes everywhere, and tries to escape on a moped.

Neha runs forward, kicks the moped tire, and the bad guy crashes straight into a giant pile of empty cardboard boxes.
