Jailer 2 X Review: ‘The Film Has Everything a Mass Audience Wants’

BFilmy Tweets shared a more positive early report, praising the action, background score, comedy and songs. The user also said the villain steals the show. “The film has EVERYTHING a MASS audience wants. NONSTOP ACTION. No breathing space between the set pieces. It is a RAMPAGE. Slow-motion blocks land with mass BGM. There’s a cameo of a superstar. Yes, your guess is right… Comedy works definitely. The BGM is not exceptional this time, except the original, HR-VB theme. In some aspects, doesn’t surpass the original, but it is nothing short of a TREAT. The villain STEALS the show. Songs add another plus point. For Mass audiences and #Rajinikanth fans, the film is nothing short of a FESTIVAL. FINAL VERDICT: SOLID!!”

“.#Jailer2 inside info.. Same Part 1 template, Forced Sequel. ‘Better than #Coolie’. Drama Lovers might feel First half> Cameos are not much affective as part1. Anirudh BGM👍🏻(fire emoji pette antha lev Ani routine) Keep your expectations low.”
