Julie 2

Definitely the Bollywood new-entrant Raai Laxmi's brilliant performance. She accurately uncovers the ugly realities of the glam world. Not only is she able to boldly re-enact the cheesy, campy item songs, the seductive bedroom shots, and the scanty, cleavage-spilling costumes, but she is able to illustrate her passion for films and fame, disgust with society's hypocrite nature, starry-eyed dreams, heartbreaks, disillusionment of her recognition and reputation in the industry, and the devastation of rejection by her family, lovers, directors, costars, and the entire nation as a whole. It's indeed a powerful performance and Raai Laxmi emerges as an actor of top quality.

Songs are catchy and fun, particularly "Mala Sinha". The script and screenplay are average. A few dialogs will leave you in splits. Can effortlessly watch this film once again.

Some bits are copied from a Telugu film "Akasamantha film" and rest of the film is dry and overaction

This film has a lot of "style" and "substance". Julie is "bold" and "beautiful", but I don't understand what makes the filmmaker claim that she's "blessed". You will enjoy this thriller despite the apparent flaws. Julie 2 is able to balance the story and the swagger. Twists and turns keep the plot gripping. You will not miss the fact that the director's name doesn't appear in opening credit but at the time of interval. And then the second half - where the pace loses steam. Having said that, other departments are good enough to pull the film until the climax. To the savior are a few melodious songs in the second half. The background score is apt. Dialogues are the highlights; some could go down very well as Bollywood dialogue memories.

Raai Laxmi makes an interesting debut in Bollywood. She is effortless and plays her character with ease. She literally pulls the film all by herself. Indeed the South Indian film industry is known for handpicking rare gems. You can definitely consider this for your weekend watch.

The start of the film resembles a TV serial, the second half is loaded with a ton of close-ups of Julie (everything except her face is focused), two most unusual tracks, some kissing scenes all over, a few scenes that look as though they are poor imitations of from 'Heroine' and 'The Dirty Picture', some religious exchanges, an exhausting climax, and the end (Phew! At last the film gets over).

Watched this Movie Today after 3 Years of Release or Say 2 Years and It was Such a Horrible Experience. Don't know why the made this film If They Don't know the D of Direction. It feels like I'm watching Some TV serial with Some Masala . The Trailer Suggested a Erotic thriller type film but the film Doesn't have any Steamy Scenes Except Some Skin Show in Songs. The Scenes in this movie doesn't go well with the flow of the film , I scratched my head and I Hoped to end this Film . Don't what was the Purpose of this film was , I think They wanted to make a film like The Dirty Picture or Something Like Heroine type but this is pure Garbage and One Thing I want To Say that why these makers of the film did reviews on this site lmao , make some good films man Ratings will automatically come !!! Everyone's acting was Just Ok-Ok type. Songs were forgettable not even a One Song which is Memorable !!! Overall - It's Not The Erotic (Hai Hi Nahi) Murder Thriller which I Expected, Watch Only If You Have Nothing to Do in Your Life !!!
