When I saw we were going to have another series about Boba taking over the throne in Tatooine, I felt it was just another cashgrab opportunity for Disney. After watching the pilot, I felt I was wrong. Even though most of it looks similar to The Mandalorian, the sets, the themes and the action, but the character exploration of Boba is the standout. It succeeds in the portrayal of Boba as this raw, brutal yet a just warrior. I liked the tone being slow, allowing room to focus on the character. Adding on, Ludwig's music takes it to another level. Jon Favreau has returned with a bang and I am all aboard the hype.
To begin I would like to appreciate Remo for his effort and bringing the Bollywood audience something new. I know this is much like the Hollywood "Step Up" flicks of which I am not much of a fan and I don't think I am fan of this one either. The only thing enjoyable here are the dance sequences and music, minus that we have a fill of poor acting, screenplay and dialogues. The story clichéd and predictable. The cheap 3D usage with all those pointing sticks and pipes was evident even if I saw it in 2D. Overall, if you ignore the elements of good film and just focus on the dancing you will have a good time. I mean, even I enjoyed watching the Prabhudeva light up the screen with his wacky moves! and Remo's choreography is always fantastic. Still, I cannot say ABCD is a good film.

ABCD 2 suffers from the same flaws of the first film. Poor screenplay and overlong run time of 2 and half hours. This one has advantages of star names of Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor. While both of them shine in their respective roles and their dance is mind blowing as well, the major problem is the script is wafer thin and screenplay is totally predictable. The climax is overdrawn and clichéd. The story of typical underdogs shining in big competition is nothing new so is the couple of local Indians getting amused and doing goofy things in foreign land. This one is not a continuation of the first film and more of rehash. The choreography and camera work plus the visuals are great but it offers nothing new. Watch it only if you are hardcore fan of first film and dance lover.
