Pretham 2

Nothing compared to the first part! Poor acting, poor script, poor story line....just disappointing. Waste of money and on top of that does injustice to the craft of mentalism too by promoting pseudoscience. It is not that fantasy is bad for the movie, but not in the name of mentalism. Poor consultation by Aathi.

Pretham 2 being the sequel of Pretham 2016 revolves around the title character Don John Bosco. The story is about the gathering of social media friends for filming a movie and the troubles they get into. Mentalism is the key factor in the movie but failed to explore its wideness. Alike Pretham the first half of the movie is full of creepy dialogs and situations. The film lacked a strong script and the characterization of the characters apart from John was a misfit. The storyline was full of logical loopholes which couldn't be covered by the narration and making. Having the shades of a horror movie, Pretham2 lacked strong technical support.

Negatives: * Apart from the Title character the rest was horrible. * Cliche and poor writing. * Cinematography and background score failed to bring the needed thrill and mood to the story.

Positives: * Execution of mentalism and deception was better when compared to the whole movie.

This is focussed more on trying to scare you rather than the fun-filled and natural flow of the first Pretham. Plot is not bad. But spoiled it by the attempts to make you scare

There is nothing original in this movie unlike the first Pretham movie. The movie felt more like a cbi sethuramayyar movie. The writer could have researched a bit more on mentalism and how to use it in a movie.

I can't believe I'm saying this but pretham 2 is way worse that the prequel. The character played by sidhartha siva is probably the most annoying character I have seen in a while.
