Commando 2

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.

Positive: -Great actions and stunts by Vidyut -Best action sequences you can find in Bollywood

Negative: -Average acting by other stars -Story is OK

First of all if you are not fan of combat style actions and stunts then avoid the movie. Now for the fans of action and Vidyut, you cannot miss this movie. Some of the best Bollywood stunts by Vidyut. No one has ever done such a great action with good stunts in history of Bollywood. He is present in most of the scenes. The best action sequences are the first one and the last one which you cannot miss. Other actors, overall story and overall presentation is average like typical Bollywood movie (I found most of the Bollywood movies predictable and average). Good thing is movie is continuous without any stupid romantic plot.

All in all watch this movie for great action sequences and stunts.

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.

Continuation of the action hit with Vidyut Jammwal

Four years after the first film, Karan (Vidyut Jammwal), the one-man army, is back. This time he is on the hunt for black money that is withheld from poor Indian farmers. This time, lone fighter Karan has to prove himself as a team player, because he can't even handle this huge task alone. The team includes: a real computer geek (Sumit Gulati as Zafar), a shopping-crazy combat expert (Adah Sharma as Bhavna Reddy) and an obscure chief strategist (Freddy Daruwala as Bakhtawar Khan). Can they all cooperate with fighting machine Karan? Well, we'll see.

First we go to Malaysia, where the main person responsible for the black money scandal, a bank employee named Vicky Chaddha, was arrested. The responsible minister (Shefali Shah) from the Indian government can hardly believe her luck if there weren't some problems in her private household... In Malaysia, Karan and his colleagues meet the beautiful wife of the arrested Vicky. Not even the otherwise ascetic Karan can take his eyes off this absolute dream woman named Maria (Esha Gupta). And she too - despite the presence of her husband, who sits in a wheelchair - seems very impressed by the battle-hardened muscle mountain. A short time later, an unexpected event occurs that reshuffles all the cards...

You can already tell that a lot has changed, especially in the character drawing of protagonist Karan. But that creates room for bizarre secondary characters. Bhavna Reddy's shopping addiction is good for many a laugh. And Freddy Daruwala, who briefly appeared in "Force 2" (also produced by Reliance Entertainment) as Yash's (John Abraham) old friend, is convincing as an obscure colleague/antagonist. Esha Gupta as Maria is pure eye candy, but is also good for surprises.

As in the first part, the action is outstanding. Vidyut Jammwal simply delivers, all his fights are absolute blasts. The only thing that stands out is his fight with bodybuilder KP (Thakur Anoop Singh). Vidyut Jammwal should actually be much better known by now, his agility is simply phenomenal.

The South African Franz Spilhaus, who rightly received a nomination (for Best Action) at the Filmfare Awards, was once again responsible for the stunt coordination.

Well worth seeing for action fans! There is no singing either, only the Commando theme from the first film is played.
