War 2

This film has a good story but screenplay was above average. For the record and for me this movie was a good but not great. This was action packed logicless entertainer. But got a good visuals, locations, cinematography, action choreography,songs,dance, artist's acting everything but logic and screen writing. Visuals are grand but the plot doesn't demand those locations. Flashback was really nice and that impacts the audience. Overall this film got grand visuals with good plot and with above average screenwriting and with more logicless action scenes.

"War 2" attempts to build upon the action-packed legacy of its predecessor, but it ultimately falls short, coming across as the weakest film in the franchise. While the movie is a feast for the eyes and focuses heavily on cinematic grandeur, it struggles significantly with its narrative, losing its grip on the plot and lacking an engaging screenplay.

The film's visual spectacle is its primary focus. The action sequences are undoubtedly impressive in scale, and the production design is lavish. However, this dedication to grandeur seems to come at the expense of a well-developed and compelling story. The plot feels disjointed, and the screenplay lacks the emotional depth needed to make the high stakes truly resonate with the audience.

The movie's lack of a strong emotional core is particularly noticeable in the background story.

The characters' motivations and backstories are not explored with enough depth, making it difficult to form a genuine connection with them. As a result, the film becomes a series of impressive set pieces without a solid foundation to hold them together.

While the action may be a good distraction, the lack of narrative engagement and emotional depth makes "War 2" a less satisfying experience than the first film. It's a visually appealing movie, but one that leaves you feeling unfulfilled.

It's not a spy movie-it's just fantasy, where you're meant to believe every other agency in the world is useless and RAW is the best. They explain the whole story to the audience in just half an hour, and now the movie's characters are telling the story to each other, leaving the audience thinking, What on earth is going on?

War 2 is a big disappointment despite its hype and star power. The movie struggles with a weak storyline that lacks logic and consistency. Instead of a gripping spy-thriller, the film feels like a patchwork of over-the-top action sequences with no emotional depth. The screenplay is shallow, and the plot never really takes off, leaving the audience disconnected. Even the performances can't save it from poor writing and execution.

I just got back from seeing it. Overall, I like it

I'll go over what I like first: Hrithik Roshan is cool , likeable, credible, and charismatic. I couldn't picture another actor in his role. I also like the supporting cast members, like Anil Kapoor, NTR, Kiara, and others. The action scenes are, in many cases, well-done. The best scene is the opening scene involving a samurai sword fight; it kinda reminded me of a clip from the John Wick franchise. The airplane scene later on is also thrilling . I'm not usually a fan of the songs in Bollywood movies, but I like the one with Hrithik and NTR

No spoilers - but the movie uses some flashbacks to flesh out Hrithik and NTR's characters. The young actors who play the younger version of their characters look the part. The casting was well done here.

The movie has the following issues: though I like the action scenes most of the time, I didn't like the music blaring in the background. The slow motion works most of the time, but on a few occasions, the effect is cheesy. Some of the characters perform feats that push the movie into Marvel / DC comic book territory; it's as if Hrithik and NTR both had doses of super-soldier serum. Some parts are almost comedy. In the finale, we get a fight scene that occurs in a place that looks like Superman's fortress. In another scene, Hrithik and one of the supporting cast members are getting shot at by many henchman in a parking lot, yet they're able to stand behind a pillar and talk like they're in a cafe

The romance between Hrithik and Kiara wasn't right. They make clear that her father was like a father to Hrithik since Hrithik was a boy. I feel that their relationship should've been more like siblings than husband/wife. It's as if the film just felt that they had to insert a romance subplot somewhere, so they jammed this one

Still - I really enjoyed this one. I'm glad I went to the theaters to see it. I think it's better than the first War movie

8.5/10.
