Race 2




First of all Race itself was not really that great. So one should never expect anything greater from its sequel !!! And then there is John Abraham. As a matter of fact, the entire team of race makes it look so lame and boring that I kept wondering from start to end that why don’t the makers provide a scroll bar in every cinema screen so that we can scroll the boring parts? Well in 'this' case we would see only the Title and the End Credits.


A quick three pointer is as follows:

1.     Overconfident Star-cast: - Saif Ali Khan and John Abraham "act" (rather behave) as if they are the only people who know acting. Anil Kapoor does the job worth what he is paid for. Amisha Patel & Jacqueline Fernandez are as just good for nothing.  Deepika Padukone underlines the fact that she has no clue why she is in "acting" industry. 
2.    Pathetically Boring Storyline: - As Race 1 was filled with unending twists and shocks; it was pretty much clear that Race 2 would follow the same footsteps. Watching this movie, gives you a rather paranoid experience than entertainment. The story is so poorly written and executed that the editor must have slept on job.
3.    The music really sucks: - At least there was one good thing in Race 1. Its music. Though copied or inspired from some foreign tunes, Pritam had done a decent job in making it sound audible for certain period of time. For Race 2, he was so lost, that he (by mistake) lifted tracks from Race 1 (getting confused for them being original foreign songs) and played the same ones again with new lyrics.

All in all, it was a total waste of time, money and whatever valuable thing a billionaire can imagine. I want to sit in the same room with these guys while the writers are narrating the story to the "stars"…..and at the end of it want to say 
Bullshit….get a life !
