Commando 2

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.

One doesn't go for this series unless one is an action fan. The movie delivers on tha front. The story is surprisingly good for what is supposed to be just an action movie. I liked the villain and the surprise later in the movie (though it is not really a mystery). Story keeps moving and if you like a good chase before a fight, you won't be disappointed. Both Vidyut Jammwal and Esha Gupta are well cast and their characters are quite likeable. Addah Sharma's character is too cheesy and a real drag. Feel sorry for the actress that she had to portray such an over-the-top, suitable-for-farcical-comedy character while delivering on action sequences.

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.

Sigh, a heavy sigh, why oh why.

I loved the first one, minus the singing but the first one had plenty if new style action scenes, acting was pretty good and overall thought it was excellent. So hearing a sequel wad getting made, I thought great this is either going to be as good as the first or better but no it went the other way, it was worse on all sides. The acting was dreadful, the action scenes were tiresome and boring. What happened to the martial art scenes that the first one had plenty of? This film played out stunt after stunt and very little martial art scenes. It seemed as if the film makers didn't know how to film action scenes. If they do make a third one, try and stick to the way the first one was filmed. Yes the first one had stunts and action scenes but they blended well together, this just seemed to be put together haphazardly.

Script was dull and boring. So this one failed to entertain.
