Dabangg 2. The Most Outrageous Sequences in Action Cinema

Table of Contents

  1. Country: India
  2. Directed by: Arbaaz Khan
  3. Release date: 2012

After watching Dabangg 2, we’re convinced that Max Payne and Neo are damn amateurs when it comes to using bullet time. In this movie it is much more than a gimmick. It's a martial art, an inherent treat of the protagonist. It's his way to bend the laws that govern the world, and especially gunfights. Watch and learn. This is how it's done, kids.

What is Dabangg 2?

It's a continuation of the quite successful Bollywood action comedy Dabangg. The action takes us to Kanpur, a dystopian city of corruption, crime and lawlessness, where violence reigns the streets. The protagonist is confronted with a politician who appears as a savior in the upcoming elections, but is actually a member of the criminal underworld.

Is it worth watching the whole movie?

I don't think so. While the first part of the series was something quite digestible, everything was turned to 11 here. The script and the excess of characters can be tedious. The presented fragment is rather a curiosity which you can laugh at, but not much more.

What about sales and money?

It wasn’t bad – the film made about 17 million dollars with a budget of 7-8 million bucks. In India, it was a blockbuster hit.
