This is an out and out Ajith special. His portrayal is way beyond, larger than life character. This movie clearly lacks the content and fails to engage the audience. It turned out to be a very slow movie, and the onlooker can predict the next scene with such ease.
I would definitely give credit to "Thala" aka Ajith for his performance and charisma. He had to shoulder this movie with just the support of his star value. If the screenplay by Chakri Toleti had been a little more engaging, I am sure this movie would have been loved by all. The 2 lead ladies/heroines just don't attract and fail to score in the fields of acting and glamor. One thing that I could not digest is that the hero is like a demi-god and illogical stunt sequences; for instance the scene in which Ajith and Ranjith hijack a truck loaded with Arms from a tightly " military/paramilitary-force-guarded" place without a big trouble.
Camera work is a treat to watch while the music and background score has been a let down.On the whole this movie does not live up to it's hype. I conclude by saying that ONLY die-hard Ajith fans can digest this movie.

''Billa'' was one of the few films which was known as a ''stylish and sexy film'' in Tamil Cinema's history. Ultimate Star Ajith Kumar made a breakthrough with this movie and had established himself as the one and only actor in Kollywood to fit in a role as a Gangster with power, style and a lot of money. His last venture ''Mankatha'' (directed by Venkat Prabhu) made the actor to grab two awards which were ''Favourite Hero'' and ''Best Villain''. But would he get another opportunity to grab so many awards again? Did ''Billa II'' keep what it had promised?
Here is the review.
The film is a prequel to the 2007 film which is a remake of the 1980 Rajinikanth film with the same title. It goes back in time before the events of the 2007 film.
David Billa (Ajith Kumar) is a refugee from Lanka who comes to India and becomes an international don. The film has a simple story and amazing punch lines, but I think it should have deserved a stronger screenplay. The director had more focus on style, action and glamorous ladies than the screenplay (which perhaps could have been an attraction for males). Even if the film did not reach the high expectations, there are still some things in the film that should be praised.
First of all, the main actor Ajith Kumar. He has once again proved himself that he is the unbeatable don and has delivered a wonderful performance as usual. Bruna Abdullah, Parvathy Omanakuttan and Vidyut Jamwal who made their debut in Tamil Cinema and Ilavarasu who played the role as Annachi have also done a good job and have given lives to their roles. R. D. Rajasekhar and Suresh Urs who are the cinematographer and the editor did an excellent work and Yuvan Shankar Raja who is the music director, has given a stylish Hip-Hop/House soundtrack which gave energy to the film.
Otherwise ''Billa II'' is a weak and disappointing venture that was directed by Chakri Toleti. Expected more from him after Unnai Pol Oruvan. If people who loved Billa (2007) go to the theaters with lower expectations, maybe there is a little chance for that they will enjoy the film.
Verdict: Gang Gang Gangster, He Ain't a Monster!

Just completed watching Billa 2 @ 5AM today... Stunts were extraordinary.Movie has been paced very well.I don't think any hero will take risk as Ajith did in Billa 2....
Worth the watch...I do not want to give anything away...Watch out for stunts and dialogues in the movie.. Cinematography and Music adds strength to the movie..
For Thala fans...We got another back2back hit after long time...
Kudos to Chakri!!
Billa 2 has done justice to thala fans as well as common movie-goers..
Watch it ..u will not regret it...
Going to watch it again tomorrow!!

If you've played GTA or MAFIA kinda games, you'll be irritated to watch this movie! To be frank, David Billa moves around with all freedom after the number of murders he commits(even it can be excused!) But, he executes everyone just like that! To be precise he plays 'GOD'. The movie started well after the credits. It traveled well until Billa joins ANNACHI. After that it gets predictable and monotonous. Sometimes certain scenes won't even stand to our predictions, don't get too excited, The fact is that it's worse than that! So when you start to predict, If you wanna be right with your prediction then expect the next scene to be very normal and the twists implied to be the twists during stone age cinema. The camera was good. All the scenes are the same and that is - BILLA kills boss to be the boss! Only the character artists and locations are changed! They've tried the SIN CITY type in one song which I'd say was indeed new and nice! Ajith plays his part well...Camera was nice, so were the locations. Costumes at certain places were inappropriate, Otherwise it was savvy. Editing was simple and nice. Technically the movie was good. The pre production wasn't effective enough I guess. Bad screenplay alone lets the movie down. One thing is evident from movies like these- They're not allowing the audience to grow! When this kinda taste prevails among the audience, I'm afraid even Great movies like THE GODFATHER (Francis Ford Coppola) won't stand tall! .... SAD!
