'Indian 2' movie review: Go back, Indian

New Indian Express  

CHENNAI: While watching Indian 2, I remembered the best of Shankar with a certain wistfulness. In a film where everything works, these would spark wild celebration, but in this film, where almost nothing works… The best Shankar films gave flight to your impossible hopes for a utopian future. In this film, the many gimmicky looks Senapathy is given, take away from the seriousness of his character—and it doesn’t help that the make-up makes Senapathy look like a pale, rotting imitation of what he once was. Senapathy seems to have been treated as a cool vigilante figure whose strength is his ‘varma kalai’ ability. Where Senapathy’s speech in the Nizhalgal Ravi murder scene felt so powerful, here, it feels like a boomer droning on to no real effect.
