Wogma rating: The keen must watch on screen; else TV/online
Quick review: The extra effort to not make it exploitative is evident. The audience is guided to follow the victims’ lead—be with what is and what can be, rather than what has been. In the process, the film misses out on becoming an immersive experience, and we get a breezy film on a weighty topic.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: Overt dramatisation, powerful delivery of over-written dialogue, considerably awful CGI. Yet a moderately engaging film, partly because of the story of bravery and partly because of decent performances.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: Sab Kushal Mangal is what happens when you have a few good ideas but don’t know how to wrap them up together.
Wogma rating: Even the keen, wait for it to come on TV/online
Quick review: A story different from the norm gets short-changed because it is treated with a loud dose of melodrama.
Wogma rating: Switch channels if it's on cable
Quick review: A slowwww clap for the social messaging—as slow as the slo-mo used, without which too the film would have been slow. A genuine clap for the attempt at story, though. As amusing and self-important as it was, at least they tried.
Wogma rating: This movie is not rated by wogma.
Wogma rating: Watch for sure, preferably in theatre
Quick review: The makers have obviously worked on improving the aspects that were little off in the first episode while making what was done well even better. Except for a couple of quibbles, Mardaani 2 works as a thriller for sure.
