I don't understand the negative reviews here. The series is supposed to be fun, amazing, strange stories. What do people wanted to see in there? Superhero stories? Or some horror kinds? Or weird stuff that would shock them, boggle them? These are sweet, strange, amazing stories that make you feel good about life, about your relations, about the sweet stuff in life. Not all stories, all series need to be shocking or horror based. This one has its own charm for which I loved it. That's why seven out of 10. Chill guys'.
I had quite high expectations from this movie going by what the director has directed in the past. Think of Brahmastra, wake up Sid , Yeh, Jawani Hai Deewani, etc. But the tough lesson learned with this movie was that no matter how good at Director, when they work for Yash Raj productions. There forced to turn into puppets, merely puppets. Even if that means the movie goes bonkers, it seems the top guys at Yashraj fiddle too much with the production values, story, scripting, overall production, leaving a Director with no choice but to follow suit. In my observation, I have seen it over and over only with the Raj films productions. Because guess what, the same director did great movies when he worked with Dharma productions, for example. This movie War 2 has such terrible horrifying, logic, defying action sequences that you want to bury your head in the sand. Take the action in the air on top of a plane with the two main male characters fighting without any wires, slipping from the front to the back, vice versa, but nobody falls off. And so many other logic, gravity, defying, nonsense, action sequences. The only saving grace of the movie is The action sequences in Spain maybe. But besides that it's a drag of a movie. That just goes on and on boring you wanting you to wait for the movie to end any time soon, but it does not. It goes on, and on and bore you to Boredom. I have decided I'm not going to watch any Yashraj films moving forward, period!
I like Charlie Theron as an actor. She's good in this movie, actually the only good thing in this movie. Everything else except her in this movie is so bad, boring, slow, static that I had to fast forward at least 45 minutes of the movie and still it was painful to watch. This movie could have been at least 40 minutes shorter. Even then, pouring, yes that boring. Why do they decide to make a movie when they cannot get a great script in place, especially when the part one was way better and way better written I mean. Extremely disappointing, nothing to write about. Just wanted to let others know it's not worth your time. It was a total waste of time for me.
