Indian 2

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.

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 But otherwise, the film hardly keeps you engaged and the making is outdated.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.

Felt extremely artificial and there's not enough screen time for Kamal. I appreciate the hard work he put in along with Siddarth. But Overall, storyline is weak.

The item song was unnecessary along with the turtle scene. Please don't go expecting it to be a true sequel. This is just mindless entertainment. The editing is poor and there are too many unnecessary jumps from scene to scene.

It's hard to believe this is a Shankar movie. The same man that created numerous masterpieces has stooped to this horrible level. And shame on him for hiring Anirudh to compose songs. Songs and background music are horrible. Only saving grace was hearing ARRs original score here and there. Disappointing. Hoping part 3 is better.

Complete failure-a disorganised jumble!

A very worthless and repulsive film. Kamal exhibited no acting at all! He simply arrived, as if he were in BiggBoss, spoke, and left. It appears that he is already retired and is not in the mood to put himself under pressure; he simply shows up as a guest, speaks his lines, and leaves.

The choreography for the THATHA VARARU song was the WORST; it resembled the simple hand and leg movements of schoolchildren. It's unbelievable that Shankar paid so much for crew, paint, and sets only to perform those ridiculous dances. The entire film is set in the past, with many hilarious situations, particularly the ones when the bad guys jump like horses and escape.

It's unbelievable that three different people wrote the dialogue for this film, which has no dialogue at all.

If you admire Shankar's work, you have to come to terms with the fact that he DID NOT make this movie. I'm hoping that Indian 3 will restore Shankar's standing.

It's obvious that we miss RAHMAN, SUJATHA (for dialogues), and the lovely makeup artist. This sinking ship is too big even for the greatly acclaimed, beloved, and "past decades talented" Kamal Haasan to salvage. His portrayal lacks the complexity and depth that made him a legend, and instead seems to be a replay of his earlier parts. The supporting cast doesn't do much better and utterly fails to make an impression. I find it hard to believe that this film required a whooping 700 crores to make!

Never thought it would be torture to sit through a Shankar movie, but it has happened. Probably his weakest, sorry, cringeworthy movie.

Right from the start, the story wanders here and there, as if Shankar's trying too hard to be modern and Pan-Indian. Script wise, Senapathy's character is irrelevant and unwanted, but what's more bad is the direction, the manner in which hero kills the wrongdoers scream cringe and outdated, executed terribly on the screen.

Don't know how he has okayed, but the getups of Kamal Hassan looked goofy, feast for trollers, nothing to write acting as well. Siddharth tried hard as the second lead, but the writing offered him nothing, except for one emotional scene. Simha's character was laughable, Rakul hardly shows up on the screen, and it's a bad sendoff to legends like Vivek and Nedumudi Venu.

Cinematography by Ravi Varman is superb, but bad writing and editing by Sreekar Prasad runis that. Anirudh's work is disastrous, both album and score, not even 0.00001% of what ARR did in the first part, production values were good.

Shankar still hasn't come up in terms with modern day filmmaking, looks lost of ideas, even the grandeur in his direction looks outdated as well. High time he updates himself or else, Shankar the great director will be a thing of the past.
