Singam 2 (2013) Review:
This film is definitely a bigger sequel but if you analyze the concept of class vs mass in this film the later takes over. The mass part takes over at the cost logic and class. What do you expect from a 100% raw commercial movie? If your answer is a movie with some repeated nonstop heroic action packed stunts rather than some reasonable screen play, story and stuff. Get in for one and only Surya who is bagging the entire movie with his fierce looks and eyes popping out of anger to finish his enemies trio.
Coming to the casting of course Surya sweeps it all. About lead heroines of the movie, Anushka had nothing but few songs and scenes, Hansika had some role but she hardly fits to the role as a school student in Thuthukudi. The movie also had plenty of other known faces but none had much contributory screen space to show case their role properly.
Coming to the technical parts of the movie, direction and cinematography was so average. Music got so repeating tunes from the first flick. It was so annoying and irritating to look at the amateur level of graphics in the movie in many places.
The story started from what they left in the last movie. But I guess from the last scene of the first movie it was very implicit that Anushka and Surya got married and they were on the way to Thuthkudi where I remember Anushka was with her newly married style of makeup. But totally this was the other way around in this movie like they didn't get married and so on.
But if you are a die-hard fan of Surya and wanted only hero kicking and fighting the villains get in for this movie and enjoy.
Verdict: Singam 2 total Surya mass and nothing else.
