Bazooka received negative comments from mixed reviews from audiences and critics. While sharing opinions on X (formerly Twitter), moviegoers slammed the film, calling it “the worst fan tribute” of Mammootty and “one of his worst performances.” One netizen wrote: “Battlehot – average second half and average second half until the last 20 minutes. There is no high or engaging moment. There is also a lack of production, photography and casting, especially the music department – totally 2/5. Mammootty’s worst fan tribute” while another added “Bazooka”, “Bazooka will all stand out in Mammummuke Mammummuke Mommuke Morlest and -Cov. WTF is that climax.”
“If the last 20 minutes of the movie are good, that doesn’t mean the whole movie is great. “Battlehot” is a bad movie with no new work. Technically, the movie is weak and the dialogue is too fake”, read another post. One X user shared: “Bazooka is a very ambitious film that rides a game thriller in a stylish setting. However, it fails to create any conspiracy. The second half of the first half was slightly better, and the second half was slightly better, which was slightly better.”

If the last 20 minutes of the movie are good, that doesn’t mean the whole movie is great. “Battlehot” is a bad movie and nothing to offer. Technically, the movie is weak and the dialogue is too fake. pic.twitter.com/mqt9fneqn6
