1. This film was released in 2011 but its production value looks even more dated. This film was the last nail in Vatsal Sheth's acting career coffin.
2. While the film does try to show us the effects that ragging has on students, it is important to know this film wont age well with time.
3. Today in 2021, ragging like the stuff shown in this film rarely happens. Yes ragging still does exist but i guess films like Chichhore and Hostel Daze portray the real kind of ragging today. So this film HOSTEL looks completely unrealistic in today's time.
4. I initially started watching it just for time pass as it began in a very interesting way but very soon realized it gets monotonous (same thing over and over again - Firoz's goons entering rooms beating juniors, Karan beating his men and this cycle repeats).
5. On top of that, very poor acting, poorly executed scenes. Only our Vasooli bhai (I mean Firoz bhai here) looks dangerous.
6. Overall, this film is not something you would like watching in 2021 but still it has some entertainment in it so i gave it 1 star.
