Review of Race 2

Race 2 (2013)
5/10
It moves maximum at the brisk walk pace
25 January 2013
Warning: Spoilers
Best part of this movie is its very beautiful locations. Makers are very desperate to make it hit. So they inserted whatever they thought about the formula of a hit film but in the race of hit they miss the content. They wanted to surprise audience so every character breaks his own limitations. Character could do anything. Director duo Abbas-Mustan inserted a ring fight with John, that is neither required nor very impressive, then typical double meaning dialogues by Anil Kapoor and Amisha Patel , which is not suitable to actors like them. Any comedian could do it but star power was necessary to pull the audience. A chase sequence between Shooter and Saif Ali khan is impressive but I was unable to understand that first shooter didn't try hard to hide him while shooting, that indicates he was ready to face the situation, then rather confronting Saif he started running. This complete sequence is worth watching. Screenplay by Shiraz Ahmed is forceful. He is unable to put any clue about any character's behavior before their act, whenever he felt to reveal, he just shown that in flash back. Therefore, audience cannot attach themselves with the thrill because at the end they can show anything. Dialogues by Kiran Kotrial is OK. Performance wise Anil Kapoor is fine. Saif ali Khan, John Abraham, Deepika Padukone are good. Amisha Patel does not have scope but she is OK. Surprisingly, Bipasha Basu is looking very beautiful in her guest appearance. Music by Pritam has one good track that is "Party on my mind...". It will take good start due to its brand but won't sustain long.
