Indian 2

Indian 2: A Catastrophic Disappointment

Shankar has irrevocably tarnished the legacy of 'Indian' with this cinematic disaster. 'Indian 2' is not just a bad movie; it's a betrayal of the audience's trust. The film is a hollow shell of its predecessor, filled with incoherent plot and wasted potential.

I'm stunned by the director's disregard for the original film's impact. This is a painful reminder that even the greatest talents can falter. Shankar has shattered the trust built over years. I will be extremely cautious about future Shankar films.

Rating: 0/10

I usually focus on the good and positive aspects even if the movie is bad. But sadly in this movie, the positive aspects are very few and are overshadowed by the outdated screenplay.

POSTIVES: Kamal sir's acting, Vivek sir's and Mano bala sir's presence, Anirudh's BGM, social message regarding corruption.

NEGATIVES: Poor screenplay, the makeup and getup doesn't seem to suit kamal sir and looks very low budget and artificial, lengthy dialogues makes it seem like a mega serial, very long runtime ( towards the end you can feel the restlessness of the audience to get out of the theatre ).

FINAL VERDICT: Definitely one of the most disappointing movies in the past few years. It's like watching a mega serial in big screen. If you like mega serials then you might like this movie.

If this movie was released 20 years back, then maybe it might have been successful. But for the current 2024 audience , this film is an utter disaster. When the Malayalam industry is producing masterpieces, this movie which has a global reach is truly an insult to Kollywood and its image. I have never given such a bad review for any movie.

This is nothing but assassination of a legendary role!

I'm not sure why did veteran actor like Kamal Hassan agree to be part of this mockery.

If you have not watched Indian part 1, you should skip this part 2 and watch Indian 1 instead.

Even after May be a 30 years that is a much better movie.

If you have watched Indian 1 already then you should most definitely skip part 2, so that you don't remember Indian movie for this debacle of a part 2.

Pls save your time and money and use it for something more productive.

I posted this review while I was watching the movie.

The only 2 minutes well spent time during the 3 hour torture.

Well to start off, don't go into this movie with any expectations. There's no logic and so many unnecessary cringe, cliche scenes. I can't believe this movie took 5 years to make. We're in 2024, and Tamil cinema has evolved so much from before, yet Shankar's movie has failed to live up to those expectations. Shankar's movies this past decade have not been realistic and the writing has been extremely poor. Bro just wasted a ton of money on a bunch of supposedly "cool" scenes when it was honestly just corny. With that money, he could've given it to people in India and that would've made more impact than his movie did. I get what his message was trying to promote and I understand then necessity of it. But doing it in this way is just making it worse. I'm honestly proud of Anirudh for making the music mid and didn't waste his good music on a terrible movie. The best part of this movie was Kadharalz imo, so the bar is set pretty low. I can't believe no one said anything when listening to the script. I had a lot of expectations and now I realized I should've had 0. This may have been one of the worst movies I've ever watched in my life. Shankar bro please do better and step up your game. Tamil cinema is not doing the best rn, so someone come please save us. Do yourself a favor and don't waste your time and money.

7 years in production. Budget issues. Prosthetic makeup issues. Crew member deaths. Covid & deaths of Vivek & Nedumudu Venu (latter being a key figure since the 1996 film.)

What did we get? A confused 2 track vigilance film that doesnt present anything new to us & poor tamil dubbing of Senapathy's killings in Surat & Punjab. Senapathy's character mimics the Anniyan by replace Garuda Puran with different Varmams, but even his rambling on them goes overboard. Siddharth and his YT team are the Anti corruption force cleaning up the mess in their homes. After 3/4 of the film stops being padded with back and forth scenes, Shankar remembered he has a Part 3 to build up & leaves the film with a trailer which looked more interesting with Veerasekharan's story. But otherwise, the film hardly keeps you engaged and the making is outdated.

There's nothing redeeming in Indian 2 that convinces the viewer to watch part 3. Would have suggested to cut out the songs of the model and that anthem of senapathy as they added no value to the movie.
