Mathu Vadalara 2

The writing felt too artificial. It doesn't feel fresh, nor is it engaging.😕

not sure what Ritesh thought while writing the scenes. In the first part, the scenes were too organic and felt natural, but in the second part, that was totally missing. I understand it was a satirical movie, but even that should be engaging. Actors like Vennala Kishore, Rohini, and Sunil were completely wasted.

On the good side, Satya's comedy acting was too good. Though I felt writing would have been better. The one part that has no complaints was editing. It was perfect, though I would have loved more jump/fast cuts like in the first part.

Mathu Vadalara 2 (2024) : Brief Review -

A fantastic successor to one of the greatest crime comedy ever made. An absolute riot! First you have to watch Mathu Vadalara (2019), not because to understand this one, but to understand the kind of high standard that film has set for the crime comedies. I still remember the headline of my review of the first film when I wrote, "The best and most number of conflicts for any thriller in world cinema." When I say World Cinema, I say it after watching over 7000 films. Now you can guess how great it must have been. Mathu Vadalara 2 is a great successor to that cult film. It may not be that high as a classic, but definitely a deserving sequel, and frankly, I don't think sequels come this close in today's times, especially the classic movies. MV2 is absolute fun, with many viral trends featuring as the main tool behind classy one-liners and slapstick jokes. From Modi ji, Animal, Chiranjeevi, club songs, destroying daily soaps, to caricatures of every single thing you know about cinema and stars, you'll be laughing out loudly with happy tears. I don't want to spoil those jokes here and reduce the impact, and the same goes for the storyline. Honestly, I couldn't even do that with the storyline because there are so many conflicts. They wouldn't fit here. You better watch them in the film, and I am sure you'll agree with me. As a whole, it's flawless entertainment, but there are a few jokes and scenes that look forced. When you watch this film for the second time, you'll definitely find a few flaws in the screenplay or the linear equation of the storytelling. Why would a police officer listen to everything his boss says when he knows it's not right? That's the biggest flaw. I don't want to tease you with such questions without telling the story or without you knowing the story. I am deducting one star from the final ratings for those 3-4 flaws that don't have waterproof branding. Rest, it's a blockbuster entertainer! Don't miss the end credits.

RATING - 7/10*

Excellent comedy timing, engaging storyline, and superb linkage scenes from part 1 made this movie a delightful experience. The narration was outstanding, with a good amount of twists and lots of fun. We entered the theater in a bad mood and left feeling elated. Every character nailed their performance, with Yesudas (Satya) delivering exceptional comedic timing. In a nutshell, this film offers great entertainment for the weekend. The script was tight, and the pacing was perfect, ensuring there was never a dull moment. The humor was both clever and relatable, making it a joy for all ages. The director did a fantastic job balancing comedy and drama, creating an emotional rollercoaster that left us laughing and teary-eyed at times. The chemistry between the cast members was palpable, adding depth to their interactions and making the story more believable. The cinematography and soundtrack were also top-notch, enhancing the overall experience. This movie is a must-watch, guaranteed to lift your spirits and provide a hearty dose of laughter.

The story is paper-thin, but the narration keeps things fun and suspenseful. The screenplay delivers some good laughs and a few dull moments.

Sathya's comedy steals the show in the first half, especially before the interval-some scenes are laugh-out-loud funny, while others miss the mark. Rohini's TV serial track is kind of flat this time around; not as hilarious as in the first part.

The second half brings in more crime and thrills, but only a few hit the right notes, with some feeling silly, and the climax is downright ridiculous.

Sri Simha, Fariah, Sunil, Vennela Kishore, and the rest of the cast give it their all.

The cinematography and sets look good, while the music is just average. The direction holds up well.

You can watch it for the comedy, but overall, it's a bit of a below-average ride.

Nonsensical as it sounds, MV2 is an overrated film with no plot to convince the audience. The Cast follows another Sunil-Satya pair for unconvincing comedy to spice up the already boring film.

The plot takes an extension to its prequel, as the thriller stands off ghastly to lure a proper storyline. And in the attempt of comedy, the story has zero conviction to make it happen.

Ajay was a surprise element to the 2nd Half of the movie, as it promised some twist of tale to promise some thrill.

The director has used a parody version of a thriller that can woo the audience. But this time he failed.
