Vishwaroopam 2

Critics Review

3.00

Kamal Haasan is restrained as actor and efficient as director

Given all the budgetary constraints, it is indeed surprising to see Kamal Haasan's ability to deliver a good quality product of international standards. Kamal Haasan as a director and actor shines through-out the movie. Kamal Haasan dialogues are engaging and have subtle references to real-life. (more)

Despite having some genuinely good moments, the film tries to put forth a little too much, a little too quickly.

Vishwaroopam 2 is a classic example of overkill. This multi-lingual film has been shot in both Tamil and Hindi. And despite having some genuinely good moments, the film tries to put forth a little too much, a little too quickly.(more)

The Kamal Haasan film is an incoherent mess

Even Kamal Haasan can't rise above the shockingly inept script, which he rescues only in a few places, when his trademark intelligent, wry self-awareness manages to kick in. The rest can be safely ignored.(more)

Kamal Haasan's Film Fires Blanks - Noisy But Of No Use

That pretty much sums up Vishwaroop 2. It repeatedly fires blanks - noisy but of no use. Has a movie sequel ever been so pointless?(more)

Kamal Haasan's superfluous sequel has unexciting missions

Vishwaroop 2 is a reminder that killing off a villain in the first part is always better than keeping him alive especially when he is on the verge of dying anyway. Haasan could have invested his energies on something more constructive - his second last Sabaash Naidu sounds fun - and audiences would have been spared a dull film.(more)

Kamal Haasan's inimitable style saves this mixed bag of a sequel

The USP of the film is Kamal Haasan, who doesn't look his age (63) and does action, romance and dialogue-delivery with consummate ease and style. Some of the action scenes are well choreographed. Ghibran's music is a major plus point. But the sequel is nowhere near the first part and looks stretched (2 hours 21 minutes). Though part two lacks the finesse of part one, Vishwaroopam 2 is still an entertainer.(more)

Vishwaroopam 2 is a fitting sequel to the masterpiece

Kamal has masterfully crafted this prequel+sequel, traced back and tracked forward Wisam Ahmad Kashmiri's life in a polished manner. If you've watched Vishwaroopam, try not to miss this one.(more)

Multidimensional Masterpiece

A great screenplay is one which keeps the curiosity element going and Kamal has achieved that in totality. Nothing is spoon fed and the audience get to piece together the puzzle which is the biggest pleasure of 'Vishwaroopam 2'. On the surface level it may be an espionage thriller but beneath it are layers that will take a second viewing to grasp. (more)

Too dialogue-heavy for an action thriller

By the end of Vishwaroopam 2, we've seen so many bombs being planted, only for them to be defused. What's another 100 more?(more)

Vishwa-bhookamp

Given that Vishwaroopam is an action film, its stunts are hysterically horrible. Kicks are awkward, and the punches of the oldies are delivered delicately, lest they hurt their own ageing bones.(more)

Kamal Haasan, the actor, loses out to the politician

That indubitably is Kamal directing the film as a director and not filmmaker. We can see the savvy politician Kamal is doing great onscreen. Wisam, unfortunately, is lost in the back ground.(more)
