After a big wait, the second installment of Race has eventually hit the screens today all over. Race 2, the sequel to the successful 2008’s Race, is out in theaters. The suspense-thriller with high octane of action by the ace filmmakers Abbas-Mustan brings in some new entrants in the flick like John Abraham, Deepika Padukone, Ameesha Patel and Jacqueline Fernandez. From the previous installment, Saif Ali Khan and Bipasha Basu are seen on board.
Tips Music Films and directors’ duo Abbas-Mustan had delivered a superb, well-executed, lavish with international feel and international standard action sequences suspense thriller Race in 2008. The film worked big time at the box office producing magnificent business at ticket window. But this time around, the team has not produced a quality product to allure the viewers who were expecting too much from the sequel.
The sequel ‘Race 2’ was being awaited with gigantic expectations and the viewers were certain for the catchy and attention-grabbing content to watch on screen, but they had to disappoint since the franchise could not be carried forward in apt manner.
Race was filled with high dose of action, adrenaline pumping stunts, eye-catchy locations, characters double crossing each other, attention-fetching story, well-written script, suave characters and well-executed chases. But Race 2 lacks in many things in comparison of its first installment.
Sequels have to outshine the first installments and often we find in Hindi cinema industry that they hardly cross the level of their originals. The same is the case with Race 2 which is not up to the mark of its original.
Race 2 is undoubtedly stylish with international look and feel. The stunts and action are adrenaline rushing but the movie lacks in writing portion that is not watertight. The first half of the film is engaging and super alluring –you hardly can take your eyes off but the second half is what losses the attention and drops the movie’s worth altogether. The first half of the film focuses on revenge whereas the post interval portion talks about the heist.
The film begins with where the first installment (Race) got finished off. Ranveer (Saif Ali Khan) is on way to take revenge of his fiancée Sonia’s (Bipasha Basu) death and for this, he lands into Turkey where he stumbles upon a number of new people (John Abraham, Jacqueline Fernandez, Deepika Padukone and Ameesha Patel). He also meets those whom he had bumped into earlier like Anil Kapoor.
The first half of Race 2 has all the ingredients to entice the souls such as action sequences, chases, twists, double crossing and characters. The writer and director both do their job skillfully by grabbing the attention of the viewers getting them glued to the screens. The twists and turns are what make you open your eyes with suspense as to what will happen next. The characters look suave and eye-catchy. You hardly find any lackluster moment in the first half of the film. But the second half carries many flaws and majority of them are in writing portion. Sonia and Malik’s back story is missing that surprises you. The Anil Kapoor and Ameesha Patel track looks really forced.
Shiraz Ahmed on writing job disappoints for second half. Abbas-Mustan execute the film brilliantly. They intact the suspense element in abundance right throughout the film. Cinemotogrpahy by Ravi Yadav is eye-pleasing and magical. The international look and feel is placed with high dose that mesmerizes the filmgoers. Kiran Kotrial’s dialogues are wonderful. Editing by Hussain Burmawala is splendid. Visual effects used in the movie are classy. Pritam’s soundtrack is pleasing and the tracks like Party on My Mind and Be Intihaan are catchy.
Saif Ali Khan does full justice with the character. He looks suave and delivers the goods brilliantly. John Abraham is first rate enacting his part with gusto and brilliance. Deepika Padukone looks stylish and appears to be classy actress. Jacqueline Fernandez does fine. Bipasha Basu is hardly there in the film. Anil Kapoor is okay. Ameesha Patel is average. Rest of the cast is just about okay.
Final Verdict:
Race 2 is attention-fetching and brilliant in first half with full dose of glamour, action, stunts and eye-pleasingly magical locales, but disappoints in second half with mundane script.
