What's
Yay:
High
octane
action
sequences,
John
Abraham,
Tahir
Bhasin's
shady
character
What's
Nay:
Nothing
new
to
offer
Popcorn
Refill:
Strictly
Interval
Plot:
Films
have
one
sure
way
of
involving
us
that
never
fails,
they
give
us
a
character
who
has
been
wronged
and
then
invite
us
to
share
his
frustrations
as
they
try
to
talk
some
sense
into
the
blockheads.
That
character
in
Force
2
is
Rudra
Pratap
Singh
alias
Shiv
Sharma
(Tahir
Raj
Bhasin),
who
is
out
to
destroy
the
Indian
intelligence
agency
RAW.
Stopping
him
in
his
endeavour
are
ACP
Yashwardhan
aka
Yash
(John
Abraham)
and
an
Intelligence
Officer,
Kanwaljeet
Kaur
aka
KK
(Sonakshi
Sinha).
The
narrative
begins
with
a
few
RAW
agents
getting
eliminated
in
Shanghai
but
Anjan
Das,
the
head
of
RAW,
is
not
perturbed.
It
is
when
Mumbai
Police
Inspector
Yashwardhan
receives
a
coded
message
in
form
of
a
gift
from
his
deceased
friend,
he
realises
that
his
friend
was
betrayed
by
someone
from
within
the
agency.
To
avenge
his
friend's
death
and
to
avoid
other
RAW
agents
from
getting
eliminated,
Yash
offers
his
services
to
RAW.
Anjan
Das
reluctantly
agrees
to
Yash
being
on
the
mission,
but
not
before
assigning
an
able
and
efficient
KK,
as
the
team
leader.
The
lead
takes
the
duo
to
Budapest
to
catch
Tahir
Bhasin
and
what
follows
is
the
majority
of
the
action
sequence.
Direction:
Director
Abhinay
Deo
has
done
what
he
is
good
at.
He
has
made
sure
that
he
doesn't
disappoint
action
lovers
out
there.
Without
mixing
too
much
of
comedy
or
romantic
angle,
the
director
has
kept
the
film
true
to
its
genre.
Acting:
John
Abraham
as
Yashwardhan
is
all
beefed-up.
He
shines
sporadically
with
his
muscle
power
and
he
offers
his
punches
more
convincingly
than
his
dialogues.
Sonakshi
Sinha
is
natural
as
the
agile
KK.
With
no
deviation
in
her
character,
her
on-screen
chemistry
with
Yash
is
winsome
and
together,
they
make
a
perfect
buddy
duo
who
bond
over
the
investigation.
Tahir
Raj
Bashin
is
the
surprise
package,
of
the
film.
Understated,
and
ordinary
in
his
approach,
he
propels
the
narrative
convincingly,
but
unfortunately,
since
we
Indians
like
our
antagonist
to
be
larger
than
life,
he
disappoints
a
bit
and
this
is
not
his
fault.
Adil
Husain
as
the
politician,
Narendra
Jha
as
Anjan
Das
and
Boman
Irani
as
Rudra
Pratap
Singh's
father,
in
miniscule
roles
are
effectively
perfunctory.
Other
Technical
Aspects:
Technically,
the
film
is
mounted
with
excellent
production
values.
The
lone
song
snuggly
fits
into
the
narrative.
The
chases
and
the
action
sequences
are
well-choreographed
and
they
tend
to
be
stretched
at
times.
However,
the
climactic
sequence
with
visuals
captured
by
hand-held
cameras
and
layered
with
loud
background
score
gummed
together
in
snappy
edits,
is
an
eye
sore.
Verdict:
Overall,
Force
2
offers
nothing
that
you
have
not
seen
before,
yet
entertains
you.
It
is
an
ideal
watch
for
John
and
Sonakshi
fans.
