Sadak 2

Mahesh Bhatt back with Sadak's sequel after 29 years. Again a Love Story wrapped up in revenge and revenge against godman. The story is predictable, boring and cliche. Acting wise Sanjay Dutt is very good, Makarand Deshpande was very good, Aditya Roy Kapur was okay, nothing extraordinary. Alia Bhatt was seem overacting. Music is one of positive in movie. Cinematography is also good. But direction is boring and predictablity is main issue.

Personal Rating - 1/10

I tried to keep an objective perspective on this movie and the trailer really disappointed me but the film overall was so painful to sit through.

Sadak 2 shows Ravi mourning his dead wife but soon finds purpose in life after meeting Aryaa.

With all the controversy surrounding the Bollywood film industry, I try to stay honest and objective towards every film I see and believe me when I say, Sadak 2 is the WORST film I've seen in 2020 so far and its issues lie in its outdated script. This film didn't even need to be called Sadak 2 as it barely adds anything to the first film. I even tried to watch this as a comedy and there were some funny moments but so much of it was boring that I wanted it to end as soon as possible. If this came out in 90s, it would have probably worked as I don't think I've seen something so outdated in a long time.

The story is fairly predictable but Mahesh Bhatt and Suhrita Sengupta add a few twists along the way. These twists come out of nowhere and there is zero build up for any of them. I cannot forget to mention how bad the villains were. They're so poorly developed and underutilised. Mahesh Bhatt could've told this story in a non-linear fashion which would have enhanced the story and characters in some way but this film takes none of those options. It decides to reveal everyone's backstory in the most uncreative and lazy way: exposition. Its storytelling methods tell me nothing about Mahesh Bhatt's skill as a director. There are no risks taken to present a bland story like this in an unconventional and original way. It's told in the most basic way possible.

The song placements were so obnoxious. When stakes began to rise, for some reason a song would be played right after it. Not only is it tonally inconsistent but it relieves any tension the film may have built up. Then there were little things which got on my nerves. There's this scene where Jisshu Sengupta plays a voice message of Alia Bhatt and before she speaks, the message is already halfway done but then she speaks for around two minutes which makes no sense. This shows the lack of care and effort that went into making Sadak 2. The film tries to spread the message of how God has turned into a business where the vulnerable are being taken advantage of and how you can find purpose in life after dealing with a loss but none of these are explored in greater detail.

I liked Sanjay Dutt's performance here even though he had little to work with. Alia Bhatt is one of the best actresses working today and did an okay job. There are other films where I feel she gave a more memorable performance. Aditya Roy Kapur is completely wasted here. Jisshu Sengupta tries but the material he had to work with was so bad.

There are quite a few scenes that are unintentionally funny. I honestly couldn't take Makrand Deshpande's character seriously and some scenes with Alia Bhatt shouting and a scene involving an owl were quite funny. However, there is no point watching Sadak 2. Nothing about it is remotely enjoyable or special. It's a very forgettable film and one I won't ever see again.

Dear Users, I am going to tell you the genuine review, irrespective of circumstances going on. 1. This movie unable to catch viewer attention. 2. Week Story, ill-logical movie and Poor acting skills by actors. 3. Good singers are missing from this movie. 4. This is not family movie. There are lots of kissing movements in movie.

Thanks. Save you time and Brain

This movie shouldnt have been released at all Because It's a Time waste to watch this movie. First Half was Ok. But Second Half ...It was so Boring that it was a major task to keep my eyelids Open. I found Alia and aditya acting ok but others such as sanjay dutt were major disappointment.The movie was so slow. Story made no sense. This movie tarnished the image Of Disney Hotstar. One of the worst movie of this year....

Aa it was a Friday evening so I watched this movie on OTT, but this is honestly so bad that could not tolerate for 40 mins and I had to switch to some other hollywood flick, worst acting by Alia Bhatt who is daughter of director of this movie, direction is so bad that a newcomer can do better work then this, actor is wasted in this movie and used as a prop of lead actress who has drowned the good actors also with her, Sanjay Dutt did decent acting with limited role given to him but it's only because of his fan following, overall nit worth watching even once, you will waste 120 minutes, better to watch some good documentary on nat geo or discovery rather than wasting time on a poor sequel.
