Billa 2 by Chakri Toleti (Review)

Story: An action thriller, a prequel to the earlier movie. Tells the story of how the don was born and everything. The story is not that rich, just a simple one. Not much romance and comedy. But it was made as realistic as possible.

Casting: Ajith Kumar plays Billa for the second time. He is known to be eelam tamilan at first. but yet he did not portray the agathigal role properly. But when it comes to bad ass role he is the boss. With all the punch dialogues made him more stylish of course. Parvathy Omanakuttan one of the lead lady. Not much of scope to perform. Cute but did not have too much role to play. Bruna Abdullah is just another heroine in the movie, she might be the cause of the climax but still it was more towards glamour. Vidyut Jamwal plays the villain in the movie. He was shown as real badass and good fighter in his intro but towards the climax he was shown so weak which doesnt make that much of sense. There were same casts as well from the previous movie.

Screenplay: A very good introduction for Ajith. But the screenplay was quite poor. For instance the scenes involving how Billa does the impossible missions seems too simple. Could have shown some more of brainworks there. And there was not much of how he became don, instead more into killing spree. He kills anyone comes his way. Songs were not well picturized. And of course the climax could have been better of course. Since Ajith's daredevil stunts was made like a waste. People been claiming the screenplay was like Hollywood but it was more like rushing Tamil film. The style of Ajith with the punch dialogues worth credits of course. And Ajiths Body Language needs more touch up.

Music: The music was composed by Yuvan Shankar Raja. Songs were awesome but monotonous. But BGM was awesome just like earlier movies.


Plus Point: Style, Dialogues and actions

Minus Point: Screenplay, Casting, Climax and continuity of the story

Verdict: A good and realistic movie which could have done better with more rich screenplay. Can be watched once in Cinema.
