Force 2 begins with the killings of RAW agents in China and befuddled RAW officials in India. With this background we are introduced to the super powerful Yash.
Good action scenes an good cinematography will keep you interested in the movie. John Abraham looks wooden and grim, which suits his character. You can spot some weaknesses in dialogues, and the villain – Tahir Raj Bhasin – does not look menacing enough
Foreign locales and action directors ensure that fights and chases are closer to Hollywood movies. But Bollywood’s fetish for slo-mo in hand-to-hand combat leaves it ineffective. What is also a bit off is the use of video game angles and camera – like you see in Doom.
All the hue and cry about Sonakshi being Abraham’s equal in the movie is misplaced as she is reduced to be dumb management who is outwitted by a smart field agent and exists only to glorify Yashwardhan.
Force 2 has all the common spy movie tropes. But these good moments are ruined by cheesy dialogues like “ab hum gharme ghus kar marte hai“. And don’t miss the unintentional funny one liners like “Martinez baat nahi karta sirf text karta hai.”
The movie scores high on suspense as the motive behind the killings remains elusive through the intermission.
But in all the chase and mayhem, the killing of six agents looks unnecessary and had no bearing on antagonists’ true motive and actions.
Overall, the movie is tight enough to keep you engrossed and action movie fans will not find a lot to fault here
