2.0 Review and Rating: Despite a tedious climax, 2.0 is a blast. It could have been a smarter film, but it is a mostly fun Rajinikanth ride, with solid 3D and great Atmos sound. | Bollywood

Shankar and Superstar Rajinikanth team up for the sequel to Endhiran, which takes on cell phone use and giant birds. If you’re unfamiliar with the Tamil-language film, but love Marvel movies, you need to take a chance on this one.

Shankar-directed 2.0 starring Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar is a fun entertainer with brilliant visual effects. But the story turns predictable post intermission.

S Shankar knows how to go overboard without making his effort look superficial and he achieves it effortlessly in '2.0'.

What would it be like if the characters from Endhiran find themselves inside the plot of typical Shankar movie? 2.0 is what you would get.

The film, however, falls into the trap of a screenplay that has been tried and tested multiple times and that happens to be the biggest drawback of 2.0.

On the whole, 2.0 is a cinematic marvel which has the style as well as the substance. The VFX especially during the last 30 minutes is something which has not been watched on Indian screens ever.

Lyca Productions and Karan Johar’s 2.0 (dubbed from the Tamil film of the same name) is a sequel to Robot. A strange phenomenon occurs one day. Lakhs of people talking on their cell phones or using…

2.0 is dull as ditchwater in the first half, perking up a little in the second, with a half-way watchable Akshay, and a Rajini coming into his own right towards the end, for a bit.

There are tons of special effects in Director Shankar’s undoubtedly inferior sequel to Enthiran/Robot — the 2010 sci-fi masala that explored the daredevilry and dangers of man-machine interaction to entertaining results.

How is the fan score worked out?

It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give one star's films 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
