Commando 2

Waiting for an action movie for a long time? Here's your perfect treat from Vidyut Jamwal. Yet once again he has proved that currently he's the best action figure of Bollywood industry. The story is like most action thrillers you have had seen with some contemporary touch of the burning issue of black money; though with little twists and turns (broadly speaking two major twists are there). Now coming to the acting skills, not much of that is needed I suppose in an action thriller so everyone was quite okay in their respective roles. The first person view concept is again brought in this movie ( I guess the 2nd Bollywood movie to do so). Luckily there is no romantic songs in the movie which I guess no one enjoys to see in a movie like Commando. Lastly the best part of the movie is the action, especially vidyut and thakur anoop singh were super awesome with there chiseled physique. But again the show stealer is obviously Vidyut with his super agile body and breathtaking stunts. So I would conclude by saying that all the action movie lovers your desi platter is right here.

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.

Sigh, a heavy sigh, why oh why.

I loved the first one, minus the singing but the first one had plenty if new style action scenes, acting was pretty good and overall thought it was excellent. So hearing a sequel wad getting made, I thought great this is either going to be as good as the first or better but no it went the other way, it was worse on all sides. The acting was dreadful, the action scenes were tiresome and boring. What happened to the martial art scenes that the first one had plenty of? This film played out stunt after stunt and very little martial art scenes. It seemed as if the film makers didn't know how to film action scenes. If they do make a third one, try and stick to the way the first one was filmed. Yes the first one had stunts and action scenes but they blended well together, this just seemed to be put together haphazardly.

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.

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.
