Race 2



Cast: Saif Ali Khan,John Abraham,Anil Kapoor,Deepika Padukone,Jacqueline Fernandez,Ameesha Patel
Director: Abbas-Mastan
Genre: Action, Crime, Thriller

Very similar on the original Race like tracks.Not a bad watch

Pluses: 
  • The grandeur of the flick i guess was the USP of it. Abbas Mastan surely knows how to present a movie. Its all about filthy richness and loads of style, preppy clothing and more
  • The men Saif Ali Khan and John Abraham where competitive in their own ways. While you can see John Abraham in his wrestling avatar, on the hindsight you can find Saif at his wits end :)
  • Among the ladies,Jacqueline Fernandez tops the list. This time she never felt like a second actress, such movies never have much for the heroines to play but yet she had some scenes to her and only her credit to add to all the glamor and attitude quotient :) She looks hottest undoubtedly
  • Anil Kapoor was playing his usual self in Race series
  • Dont miss a run and chase scene in which they more or so try to cover the town Cypress, its pretty beautiful. Tourism promotion at its peak for Turkey otherwise, Istanbul yet again :)
  • A few action scenes were good but most of it is a little overdone. Girls will enjoy John in the wrestling arena for sure :)
  • The story goes in a good pace, slightly predictble but yet the story has many folds as you would expect, so it keeps twisting and turning until the end. But since we know Saif is the ultimate Bond in the movie, its largely exagerrated for him
  • Music of the movie is good but never actually fits in the scenes as the story flows
Minuses:
  • Deepika Padukone wasted. She had practically nothing to play and except for showing her long legs every now and then
  • Ameesha Patel did a filthy role with flimsy dialogues. Didnt know she has stooped low to this level
  • The final Action drama on air between Saif and John was not very digestible, especially with a wrestling champ John being there, they should not have even attempted to show Saif fightin him arm to arm
  • They should have added a little more to the script, instead of making it so easy for Saif to win all his low planned tricks internationally. I wish the producers would have spent some money on technology as much as spent on glamor and locations. Not up to the mark 


My rating: 2.5/5
