Commando 2

Continuation of the action hit with Vidyut Jammwal

Four years after the first film, Karan (Vidyut Jammwal), the one-man army, is back. This time he is on the hunt for black money that is withheld from poor Indian farmers. This time, lone fighter Karan has to prove himself as a team player, because he can't even handle this huge task alone. The team includes: a real computer geek (Sumit Gulati as Zafar), a shopping-crazy combat expert (Adah Sharma as Bhavna Reddy) and an obscure chief strategist (Freddy Daruwala as Bakhtawar Khan). Can they all cooperate with fighting machine Karan? Well, we'll see.

First we go to Malaysia, where the main person responsible for the black money scandal, a bank employee named Vicky Chaddha, was arrested. The responsible minister (Shefali Shah) from the Indian government can hardly believe her luck if there weren't some problems in her private household... In Malaysia, Karan and his colleagues meet the beautiful wife of the arrested Vicky. Not even the otherwise ascetic Karan can take his eyes off this absolute dream woman named Maria (Esha Gupta). And she too - despite the presence of her husband, who sits in a wheelchair - seems very impressed by the battle-hardened muscle mountain. A short time later, an unexpected event occurs that reshuffles all the cards...

You can already tell that a lot has changed, especially in the character drawing of protagonist Karan. But that creates room for bizarre secondary characters. Bhavna Reddy's shopping addiction is good for many a laugh. And Freddy Daruwala, who briefly appeared in "Force 2" (also produced by Reliance Entertainment) as Yash's (John Abraham) old friend, is convincing as an obscure colleague/antagonist. Esha Gupta as Maria is pure eye candy, but is also good for surprises.

As in the first part, the action is outstanding. Vidyut Jammwal simply delivers, all his fights are absolute blasts. The only thing that stands out is his fight with bodybuilder KP (Thakur Anoop Singh). Vidyut Jammwal should actually be much better known by now, his agility is simply phenomenal.

The South African Franz Spilhaus, who rightly received a nomination (for Best Action) at the Filmfare Awards, was once again responsible for the stunt coordination.

Well worth seeing for action fans! There is no singing either, only the Commando theme from the first film is played.

Vidyut Jammwal step in again as Commando with bigger mission but script let down him. Director Deven Bhojani failed to engage the audience from beginning to Climax. Script has some many twist and turns so it look like Abbas Mastan's flick. Adah Sharma was totally usually with her Hyderabadi ascent. Esha Gupta was good in her role. Freddy Daruwala and Shefali Shah's character were so confusing till the end.Music was totally unimpressive."Commando- Commando" as background was totally wasted. It is better to watch previous installment Commando at home with family.

We all know vidyut is a phenomenal actor and a extraordinary martial artists but he needs a good direction and a good team.. We must support him guys

Others might have reviewed this movie as oh-so-cool, Hollywood-ish, lots-of- TWISTS, etc but this movie doesn't live up to the standards of Commando 1 by the same hero - Vidyut. Well, there are NO TWISTS - the entire movie is CLEARLY PREDICTABLE - start to finish - and looks naive from audience point of view.

Vidyut is a great stunt actor and can be called the "Jackie Chan of India" but the director failed to leave any impression with the story or screenplay. The Jackie- Chan/Tony-Jha style flipping-over-automobiles, sliding-under-tucks, jumping- through-tiny-windows, running and chasing through the city is average at best and you won't get impressed. What is sad is that there are way too many DEADLY stunts in this movie (in Bangkok and Malaysia) compared to Commando 1 but they fail to impress as much as Commando 1 stunts did. Hero dodging hundreds of bullets from dozens of goons is exaggerated while another police officer simply DIES from a bullet to his SHOULDER!!! Seriously?? How can anyone die from a bullet wound to a shoulder???? I'm sure any other director with the same action scenes would have left a lasting and memorable impression - higher than Commando 1. Don't miss the old Commando 1 and watch it from the START and see all the beautiful and magnificent Camera work!!

Some viewers commented this movie has lots of twists - that's too naive and obviously they haven't watched any great movies. It is called a twist when one character fools another character in the movie but not when the characters fool the AUDIENCE all through the movie to reveal the facts at the end!! That's as dumb as 1960's story-writing. If you consider these tricks as twists, you need help :)

Some hilarious comedy in the form of heroine speaking Telugu and broken English is refreshing but again things are stretched too far.

Waiting for an action movie for a long time? Here's your perfect treat from Vidyut Jamwal. Yet once again he has proved that currently he's the best action figure of Bollywood industry. The story is like most action thrillers you have had seen with some contemporary touch of the burning issue of black money; though with little twists and turns (broadly speaking two major twists are there). Now coming to the acting skills, not much of that is needed I suppose in an action thriller so everyone was quite okay in their respective roles. The first person view concept is again brought in this movie ( I guess the 2nd Bollywood movie to do so). Luckily there is no romantic songs in the movie which I guess no one enjoys to see in a movie like Commando. Lastly the best part of the movie is the action, especially vidyut and thakur anoop singh were super awesome with there chiseled physique. But again the show stealer is obviously Vidyut with his super agile body and breathtaking stunts. So I would conclude by saying that all the action movie lovers your desi platter is right here.
