Review: We dive right into a world of rebels, drug addicts and vulgar corrupt police officers and are taken close ( a bit too close) to the hub of everything illegal ,Goa. According to the film, in Goa you are either a drug smuggling murderer or a shell shocked victim, there is no in between. Baaghi 2 makes an effort to create a story which is a good thing though I'm not sure how successful they are. The story gets carried away and in an attempt to look stylish and slick it ends up looking illogical and frivolous in places. Also I would like to know what was going on in the minds of whoever developed the characters in this remade version of Telugu movie Kshanam. There is a braid making , selfie clicking absolutely absurd police officer played by Randeep Hooda and a totally "high" and reckless Prateik Babbar. There is also a not so classy rendition of an old classic picturised on the brazen Jacqueline Fernandez.
Despite all this the movie does manage to remain somewhat entertaining. The cheesy dialogues between the hero and heroine in the first film are not present here .. well maybe because there was hardly any romance between the lead pair in this one. There are a few twist and turns in the plot. Some of them are predictable but still bang on! We have Tiger Shroff taking down a whole army of trained men all by himself ,some say it's not plausible but if Salman Khan(the reel tiger) can do it then why not Tiger Shroff who looks much more believable. Tiger has improved his acting .. slightly and his new look is working wonders for him. Every time he comes onscreen or packs a punch the whistles just don't stop! Competition alert for the existing talent in the industry. Disha Patani is .. uh well she's okay. Randeep Hooda is .. uh well he does a pretty good job to be honest and Prateik Babbar , Deepak Dobriyal lend the necessary support. Manoj Bajpayee seems a bit out of place. This film is a one time watch because despite all the hooliganism, lunacy and blunders Baaghi 2 is all heart!
