On many levels, a movie that’s all fluff and no stuff can be quite exhausting. And, ‘Race2’ is just that. It’s just a pompous wannabe-thriller that is devoid of any logic. It’s a race, we are told, on numerous occasions, by the two leading heroes and their two gorgeous sidekicks, almost trying to justify why they’ve taken two-hours-and-thirty-minutes of our lives. Yet, there’s never a real sense of what they are racing for. Time, money, babes, or cars? While its predecessor, the original ‘Race’, had shown some promise and glimpse of a good plot, ‘Race2’ steers away from any such attempts, and instead focuses on good looks and charm. On the whole, this is just a lazy sequel of a famed potboiler that can be watched at home… on a (borrowed) DVD.

Race 2, bears all those familiar trademarks of a heady cocktail of betrayal, high-octane action, feisty women combined with twists that will take audiences on adventure-filled rollercoaster ride. Like Race, even the sequel never reveals all its cards at once. The layers come off one by one, and each time you think you've got it all figured out, another shocker hits you out of the blue.On the whole, the makers of Race 2 have made sure to keep the audience entertained so far. We hope to check out more of action, deep secrets, mind-boggling twists further.We'll be back with the final review soon......

Wanna get entertained? Once again, don’t get into logics and statistics as we have been doing for some recent past action masala flicks. There is a slick treatment of high adrenaline action scenes that rate up to be one of the best in Bollywood. Abbas Mustan had shown some promise and glimpse of a good plot in ‘Race’, but ‘Race 2’ is just a lazy sequel of a famed potboiler and it seems they want to cash in on the success of the first instalment.‘Race2’ steers away from any such attempts, and instead focuses on good looks and charm mostly. Put down with a bad script, I’ll go with 2.5 stars for this action drama which has nothing new to offer except a cast of half a dozen of glamorous stars.

On the face of it, Race 2 is a glitzy, action-packed entertainer. Scratch the surface – in fact, that is all there is to the film – and what you are left with is superficial style bereft of logic and substance. Race 2 is slickly packaged around dramatic twists and turns that fly at you thicker and faster than you care to count. Is Race 2 on your mind? Get rid of it pronto. This is a wreck of a movie strictly for action junkies who might be looking for a feverish two-and-a-half-hour ride that is far more giddy than heady.
