After the demise of S. Rangarajan, the last two films of Shankar (not including 'Nanban', which was a remake anyway) have had to rely on expanding the horizons of visual effects (and other such gimmicks) in Indian cinema. The costliest Indian film to date, 2.0, suffers from Rangarajan's absence big time. The dialogues don't strike a chord with the general audience the way they're supposed to - amid all the scientific mumbo jumbo (about photons, positive energy, and aura), there are scenes explaining everything in common-man language (including a sly reference to the 2G scam) - but even they are not humorous or clever enough.

2.0 essentially boasts a screenplay that Shankar carefully penned to inculcate one VFX-based set-piece after another, each getting grander in terms of scale. Rajini is restrained and quite boring as both Dr. Vaseegaran and the original Chitti, and he goes into full-Rajini mode only during towards the end. The blame is, again, directed to the writing department. There are no scenes that make us want to know Dr. Vaseegaran more as a person. In fact, he is as robotic as his personal aide, Nila (played by Amy Jackson). It was quite sad to see even a 'female robot' suffer from the male gaze (in one of the early scenes in the film).

We wait for the quintessential Shankar flashback to drive the film forward storywise, and to give the audiences a strong, well-written reason as to why one of the film's characters (this time, the antagonist Pakshi Rajan, played by Akshay Kumar) does what he does. Pakshi Rajan's backstory is a pretty good one (again not going into scientific depths; this is a sci-fi masala potboiler) and Akshay manages to make his Tamil debut a memorable one (and probably the only character worth caring for in the whole movie, even though he is the 'designated bad guy' who has to go against Rajini Kanth - not one or two, thousands of them!).

Shankar, by now, has realized that he can only go forward with films that require a large canvas, elaborate set-pieces, and quirky costumes and make-up. The VFX visionary in Shankar is seen in an extended scene where people (pertaining to various strata of life)'s cellphones start flying in the air for a while to eventually form the scavenger eagle that is Pakshi Rajan. And there are numerous such scenes! However, I did not enjoy a gimmick that the deranged version of Chitti tries to pull off on Pakshi Rajan during the climax sequence, which goes against the message (or rather, the morality) that the film tried to uphold in the first place.

Almost every shot requires visual effects in some form or the other; the effort has gone into making it all look great on screen is, without a doubt, astonishing. If only the same kind of effort was put into the writing too, we would have gotten a sci-fi masterpiece in our hands; but no, not happening!

Only focus in VFX. No logic in movie .Message is good but story is week..I saw this movie in 3D. Hindi dubbing is so bad.

The plot of this movie is utterly bizarre. The opening sequence is really good and made me excited for what was to follow. Unfortunately what was to follow was unbelievable. It just makes no sense whatsoever. The movie is trying to provide an environmental message, but in the most ridiculous of methods. Had a movie been made which addressed that message in a more grounded way, it could have been interesting. This was simply far too much though. Almost all the performance in this film is atrocious. Ranjinkanth as Chitti was unintentionally laughable. He was an old man trying to act like a superhero robot. Unfortunately whenever he tried to run or do anything physical you could see the amount of effort required. I felt sorry for him. I just imagined him finishing an action scene and needing a week to recover. He wasn't helped too much either by his co-star Akshay Kumar who plays the antagonist Pakshi Rajan. Although the subplot involving his character is good, the character in whole is poorly written. The make-up effects don't look good. To be honest, nobody came out of this looking good, except maybe Amy Jackson who plays another robot and looks amazing. What's even more shocking is that the silly-looking poor CGI costs $76 million, making it Bollywood's most expensive ever film. I have no idea where the money went because this film had the visuals of something from the nineties. There's a big fight scene at the end of the movie that's so ridiculously exaggerated it makes me think it was put there solely to insult the intelligence of the viewer. There was just so much obvious green screen.

Overall, 2.0 is admirable for the ambition to create this huge sci-fi blockbuster but the execution was beyond terrible.

It's a terrible movie. Dumb storyline. Poor acting. Making a sequel just to squeeze out more money from the moderate success of the previous movie. For all the money spent, they couldn't hire a decent script writer.

Avoid this movie unless you wish to suffer brain damage!!

I had low expectations from vfx and high expectations from story line,the movie turned out to be exact opposite,vfx turned out to be better than i expected and story line was pretty disappointing,the movie is predictable at so many levels

I slept half way through with my friend having to wake me up 😂😂

Silly storyline, broken editing and even Superstar's performance couldn't save this. If you want to be entertained with some mindless VFX, give it a try.... Else Dave some money and time on this and give it a miss.

2.0 is undoubtedly a giant leap for the Indian movie industry!

Positives first:

• Shankar, his vision, VFX & 3D: The maximum, an Indian movie has ever achieved, that is so close to the Hollywood standards. A very satisfying and convincing work, with such a limited budget (comparing with Hollywood films). Grand imaginations and an ambitious work by the director!
• Rajini Factor: Although Vasigaran and Good Chitti characters could not impress us much, Rajinikanth starts his rage with 2.0 and 3.0 characters. He nails them to perfection with proper entertainment value. 2.0 is the true Indian superhero, with a lot of potential future projects.
• Akshay Kumar: His dedication is impressive. His acting in the flashback portion is very natural and he deserves an applause for accepting that character.
• AR Rahman's BGM and Nirav Shah's camera work lift the movie to another level.

Negative:

• An underwhelming and weak storyline that is easily predictable. Screenplay is flat, without any interesting cat-and-mouse moments between the protagonist and antagonist.

Given that most of the superhero films in the Hollywood too have such simple and predictable storylines, the only negative of the film can be magnanimously ignored.

Go watch this indigenous product, that will definitely make you proud as an Indian!

It's a sure ENTERTAINER!!!. The 1st half was a little boring, but it really took off from the 2nd part, Akshay Kumar's performance was amazing. Rajinikanth has just nailed it. He is great as Chitti, It was a little over the top, he could've been a little subtle, but nevertheless enjoyable!

VFX was mind-blowing, best in Indian cinema till now! but a little inconsistent in some parts, 3D effects were really good, one of the best 3D experiences.

Everyone should watch this movie atleast for the sheer fun and entertainment it offers throughout the runtime.

Another thing is that some people are criticizing it for the movie being illogical, but trust me, I'm doing my computer science engineering, and the logic was good enough to take in. But, I watched the movie not for it's science, but for grandeur and fun the movie offers! Conclusion: S.Shankar is really creative with the VFX and offers some interesting visual treats! But only if he could've been a little more creative with the story, it could be the best movie of Indian cinema. At the end, it's a must watch. You wouldn't want to miss the fun.

I guess this review encompasses most of the audience's thoughts!

Okay so you spend approximately 76 million USD on a plot like this? When will the industry realise its not about how much you spend but about how intriguing the story line is. Secondly, even if i let go off the fact that the plot was bad. the acting was terrible too. I dont blame akshay kumar for having starred in a clueless picture like this. The dialogues were lame, the graphics were a good attempt but still its not what the people need. You have movies like badhai ho and andhadhun which are low budget movies which everyone loved. What was this? Lame action with just another random plot with another boring set of character where the hero wins. See agneepath for instance, the plot was taken from an older movie. Despite being a remake the movie was one of bollywood's best works.

I saw the film 5 times till now, it is first move in India Which reflects the quality of Virtual Effects with 3D encoding. The plot of film is not so strong. and According to the rule ruled in India the message of Movie ( Radiation killed innocent animal ) is incorrect but some where i thing , in reality this massage is correct ( denotes like corruption ) on the manner. A quality Acting from Akshay Kumar ( Pakshi Raja ) and Super Star RajiniKanth. As we are expecting a high drama and action same as Robot. So the people are disappointed. Instead some minor faults, this is a good try for India at World of VFX and Special effect.

Robot released in 2009 is still a benchmark for all Indian Film as far as VFX part is concerned, who could have surpassed it other than its Sequel? 2 point 0 promises to be a Biggest Visual Spectacle ever and it is actually that Never Seen Before Visual Treat for all Indian Cineviewers. Shankar has done it, he did it 9 yeras ago too, he does it again. Shankar has successfully achieved that Ground Breaking VFX with 2 Point 0. If you are concerned about Big Budget of around 450cr then i assure you that it did not go in Vain. That money is spent on Whatever Mind-Boggling Visual Effects you see it on Screen and it Completely worths it.

The question comes on obvious note that did a Landmark Film like Robot deserve a Sequel? If yes, then will it be able to the match the same phenomena? The Anwer is Yes, 2 Point 0 Surpassed the Benchmark set by Robot on Visual Level by Margin but it lacked the same conviction and Logic like its Predecessor. Technical Team and Shankar Deserves a Standing Ovation for Never Seen Before Visual Effects and i request all of you to watch the Film in Theatre and in 3D only. But there is something less in script for sure, some scenes doesn't make sense at all, some looked outdated. A sloppy Screenplay and high scientific technic theme might be difficult to digest, especially for masses. At some scenes Chitti looked very tiny, as if we are watching him in a Video Game. Actors didn't get much scenes to do acting, less use of BGM etc are tye some minuses to mention.

Overall, i am confused whether to Praise Shankar a lot for some never seen before and Biggest Spectacle Ever or to bash him for not working on the script? No doubts, 2 Point 0 is A GROUND BREAKING FILM for Indian Cinema and it will take many years for other Indian Films to surpass it Practically. Visual Department was focused but Little more attention towards the Script and this one would have been a LANDMARK FILM from all the aspects. As a whole it's a Good One Time Watch for sure, there is nothing disappointing in the film. It is just the matter of what level film you are expecting. Talking about the Box Office, this was the only film which could have challenged Bahubali 2 Domestic Records but now i can say Bahubali 2 Safe.

RATING- 6/10*

A plot that no sane person could actually believe, forcefully trying to convince audience. Make no mistake it has a great VFX and CGI but lacks the minimum sense of movie making and the basics of story telling. Pros: not much expect Amy Jackson.. and I think that says a lot. Cons: I dont know what to say except the whole movie. Its a finacially rich absurdity. Akshay Kumar comes as Pakshi Raj which literally means king of birds which is nothing but hillarious and Rajnikanth's chitti tries to win the battle in a shootout. Guys before you watch a heads up- LOGIC ZERO and I mean a big ZERO but thats not what dissapoints me. What dissapoints me is that there is nothing much to enjoy at all except Akshay Kumars back story where he performs well (only good acting seen through out the film). Guys I strongly recommend guys who were anticipating th e release of this movie to watch it and judge yourself but those who are in doubt know this YOU AIN'T GONNA ENJOY THIS 🤐 peace out.

The movie is not based on Vfx, but has a story with a serious issue. Not boring for a secons, not even close to it. No unnecessary songs, dance.

Loved it.

So after being in development for like, 8 years, what do we finally get for a sequel of one of the greatest Tamil movie of all time? A blatant natalist propaganda. To be honest this movie seemed to just go with the flow. Like the famous saying goes, "Maybe the treasure was the friends I made along the way.", this movie's saying is, "Maybe the movie is the trends I picked up along the way." Because that's literally what this movie has done - pick up everything that came since 2010.

So the movie begins with Nila, Vaseegaran's new robot. Now I have several questions. Firstly, how on earth did Vaseegaran make another robot? Wasn't it clearly mentioned at the end of Endhiran that he is not allowed to make robots? Didn't Chitti get dismantled at the end and then get shown to be that way till 2030? Secondly, in the first movie it was said that Vaseegaran took 10 years to make Chitti. So how did he make Nila like, almost immediately? Even if we consider he just copy-pasted the codes, still he has to make an entirely new model from scratch. And thirdly, why did he make it after Amy Jackson? Because she had become very famous back then? They don't even talk about Sana, as if she just, disappeared.

So let's get the idea behind Pakshi Rajan. He's an ornithologist who wants to remove cell phone tower radiation because it kills birds. Dude, first of all, get your facts straight. Towers only cause disturbance, they don't KILL birds! Throughout the movie whenever anyone said no one dies of tower radiation, he would always reply by saying that they should try spending 24 hours under a tower. I mean, okay then? I lived in a village which had a huge tower right next to it. I stayed there for about 17 years, and at max I only got tinnitus. So there goes your emotional appeal. This movie was clearly made with the intentions that kids will stop using their phones with the fear that it may damage the ecosystem. To this I will say only one thing: Okay, boomer!

And the CGI. The goddamn CGI. Baahubali was made at 1/3rd the cost of this movie and had a way more realistic CGI. The way Pakshi Rajan's soul peacefully comes out and then turns evil with a jumpscare was so predictable and hilariously bad. All the birds clearly looked animated. The action scenes were okay-ish, but I found Pakshi Rajan's CGI kinda disgusting. He needed more than just fake feathers. There's a reason why humans aren't birds. Such a look is only good for a KFC mascot, not for an intimidating villain.

Finally, the part that bothers me the most: The message that this movie wants to give. Like mentioned above, this movie wants us to stop using cell phones because it will destroy the environment. Vaseegaran blatantly speaks it out in the end. And the other message that this movie wants to give is, also briefly mentioned in the beginning, natalist propaganda. No matter how many wrong things humans do, even if they kill and destroy the environment for their own greed, they will always be considered correct. I wouldn't have had this problem if Pakshi Rajan won in the end. I was absolutely routing for him. But this wasn't the case. So I'm absolutely disappointed.

2.0 could have been one of the best movies ever made if it was made with a proper story, decent CGI and any relation with its prequel. Instead it felt like a cash grabber that just wanted to make enough money to get out of its production hell. I'm really disappointed and trust me, I get no fun trashing this movie. I had been waiting for it for the last many years. They could have just hired me. I would have worked for free.

Brainless movie by Shankar. Though the underlying theme is good, Shankar completely messed it up by greed of cheap money. Rajni completely wasted as actor but then he is ok to do anything for 100 crs. Shankar should start watching Balachandar and Barathiraja movies. Avoid this movie like plague.

I gave 10 to appreciate such a movie this is only the beginning.

I had watched Robot movie so many times and never got bored of that movie ever. That movie had everything. Story, Screenplay, Twists, Graphics. Went with some expectations to watch 2.0. While watching the movie, I was thinking, really Shankar is the director of this movie. Is this the same guy who directed Indian, Boys, Anniyan, Mudhalvan, Robot etc. All his previous movies except Vikram's I had content. After watching Bahubali they also wanted to come up with something big on screen. They spent money like water on VFX. Wish had they spent some time on screenplay and story as well. Mobiles flying and some fight scenes becomes repetitive after sometime. Just because they have spent hell lot of effort on creating Graphics, they will overload the screen with same lame fights. I didn't understand how Pakshi Rajan became villian. Akshay Kumar as ornithologist who feels for birds is excellent and that's the only character in the movie I liked. He dies and comes back as Pakshi Rajan to kill people. In simple terms, he is a ghost. But in movie they used some scientific terms like Oura, positive negative energy which nobody understands. There are some scenes which references to Shankar's old movies Anniyan. Story is too predictable. For stadium fight, they have spent lot of money, time and effort but still it doesn't have any impact. They focused only on bringing Visually rich movie ever made in India but forgot the basics of cinema i.e WRITING good story, screenplay and dialogues! Go if you want to watch some good VFX.

I have never written a review on IMDB before,But this movie deserved a review. It is a horrible,nonsensical cringe fest. There is no logic in the movie at all. And the VFX is nothing to be proud about. Hollywood is light years ahead. It's hard to watch the movie without feeling awkward. Such cheap and lame humour. And don't get me started on the ending. Oh my god. Who in their right mind would think that this is something worthy of being displayed to an audience. The 8.2 rating is a shame. It deserves a rating worse than Race 3.
