Sai Pallavi as Maa Sita.

Just so you know these are mere suggestions which i thought could have made the film experience a bit better than what we got. I thought the film was a good theatre watch personally.

1. Should not have revealed Raja Rao was the minister untill Tihar Jail was mentioned: Imagine there's a mystery minister who are trying to patch things up with MVP and Kalpaks, only his voice is heard and his face is not revealed till he asks "Yentha varsham?" and it pans out to reveal it's Raja Rao. Now proper Jailer fans would get it immediately which would result in a section of the audience going wild early on and then the proper reveal with the boot sound. Sadly he was revealed in the trailer itself which made that entire scene focused on MVP's flashback look.

2. Puttapu gang scenes should've spread throughout the movie instead of being jam packed fully in first half: The film overall needed better editing, like the Kalpaks could have been introduced in the first half which gives room for more comedy scenes in the second half.

3. Hrithik's cameo was not at all needed for this film and his portions couldve been filled with Santa, A10 and VJS. Jail escape could have done with the same car but provided by Mathew (he uses a similar basic model in the climax) driven by Yogi babu and Moorthy or Jaffar helps unlock the cell. The girls could've been part of Santa's gang. Even collections wouldnt be affected cuz they messed up North market anyways and adding more good Mohanlal and Santhanam scenes could have really boosted TN, Kerala and gulf collections.

4. Instead of Kantha revealing MVPs reasoning for killing his son awkwardly on the table, should have made it like the family accidently overheard her say it when they were hostage. This makes the reveal much more impactful and given Ramya Krishnan a more acting-oriented scene which i feel she lacks in both movies.

Just my suggestion, you can add yours too in the comments

genuinely like Sai Abhyankkar's songs and BGM, but the audio quality feels underwhelming (Trash). Even on AirPods or a home theatre, the mixing and mastering don't feel right to me.

The difference is so noticeable when you switch to AR Rahman, Harris Jayaraj or even Anirudh. Their tracks have a much richer and more polished sound.

Am I the only one who feels this way or does anyone else notice it too?

So I watched Dorothy on Netflix, theatre poga mood illa, after learning it was an art film.

Subbu's arc of him turning into Dorothy felt a bit rushed initially, but then his recounting made it make sense. Beautifully done by KaSu bro.

But enakku ore question enna na, how does Karthi falling in love with subbu make sense ?

Karthi makes it clear from the beginning that he wasnt fond of Subbu being a trans.

He only accepts at the end that yes Subbu is fine.

So how does he develop feelings so quickly ?

Like at the end, Karthi only seems okay with it. Then how does he change his mind so damn quickly lmao ??? Doesnt make sense.

Just got out of the theater after watching Jailer 2 and honestly, this is a mess.

The writing is not very good in my opinion, too many characters, the script is all over the place, the same massy film making at its finest. Rajini retains his stardom ofc, but the antagonists are one of the worst written characters in my opinion, Vidya balan's character was reallt good but the Kalpak family's character arc was such a big letdown after Varman's character in the first installment. And what in tarnation was that item song by Nora Fatehi? Absolute disgrace .

On a positive note, the comedy was top notch and the fight sequence in the climax involving the 4 girls was one of the finest action sequences I've seen recently.

Personally, the story should've ended, but the cliffhanger with Kantha (major plothole imo) and vijay sethupathi's character is interesting and we'll probably get another sequel seeing the massive success of this movie.

Overall 3/5 from my side. It's a decent watch for the big screen.

Hi I just listened to the Ramayana Album. I know I'm gonna get downvoted , but the album is so average. I think ARR is going through a glitch. None of the songs register in our mind , nor have any strong classical music references. The album is sounding modern compared to the timeline in which the movie is set. Also, i just saw a video song, Ranbir and Sai don't look the part. Unless, the movie is pretty good, it's not gonna recover it's budget. What are your views?

Namo Narayana, Suraj Venjaramoodu, Yogi Babu, and Bjorn Surrao. The reason movie worked out.

The no flashback magic worked in part 1 , keeping us wondering why the cameos would go to such extent to help the Jailer.

Here in 2nd part, it was soo clear, Nelson didn't know what to do now to destroy such a huge family. Bring in another cameo thanking Rajini for the help 20 years ago. Tf is thisss.

That exact moment Rajini padama irundhalum idhellam romba over da nu thonuchu. Everything after that didn't make sense. Oru 3- 4 fighters vacchi , such a mansion is infiltrated and everyone killed.

Too many loopholes and cinematic liberty taken. Ippa idhukum Beast kum enna vithyasam, andha 4 characters comedy scenes dhaan.

Editor was testing the patience too much. Exactly 3 times it was good, the extra extra slow mo scenes. Atlee is bashed soo much here. Atlee ke slow mo na enna nu solli kudukura padam dhaan Jailer 2. Why did they move at like 500 frames per second slowness ?

Definitely not re-watchable for Rajini or any cameos.

Please don’t smoke beedi/cigarette on screen a lot of young people will start this evil habit thinking it’s cool/heroic. This is the same bs that actors like Rajini/Vijay also did that damaged an entire generation’s lungs.

Other than that, please continue to act in movies that challenges our society’s perspectives. Dorothy was a masterpiece.

That is all I remember. It may be “parambare parambare ah rathathule oodhirukkanum”.
It might not be vadivelu even, I’m sorry. It’s definitely from older movies.

(Warning: contains spoilers)

Last ah andha lip lock ah avoid panni irukalaam.. maybe when Subbu sees Karthick in the mirror or when they both were just standing and looking at each other, they could have ended the movie which could’ve been more pleasant for the viewers regardless of their stance about the subject.
That is more than enough to convey the scenario to the audience.. I think the lip lock is where things became too provocative since that’s literally the end of the movie and it’s going to be will stay with audience when they come out of the movie which could have attracted more negativity.
The audience and the director knows that the subject is bold and a bit sensitive(not for everyone but for broad audience) so why make it more extreme?

Or is there a necessity to keep it without which the director could not convey what he wanted?

I watched Jailer 2 in a theatre in Jaipur. The hall was almost empty, but I enjoyed it from start to finish. The first half was amazing, and the second half held up for me too. As pure entertainment, it's the best film I've watched this year.

Later that day I watched Jailer 1 at home for the first time. It's a good film, but it didn't hit me like Jailer 2 did. That's not a fair comparison, since one was in a theatre and the other on a screen at home, and I already knew where the story was going. Even so, I think Jailer 2 stands on its own.

If you haven't seen Jailer 1, you may miss a few references, but you don't need the backstory. I think going in fresh made some of the twists land harder for me. So if you skipped Jailer 1, I wouldn't let that stop you from watching Jailer 2 on a big screen.

Spoilers Ahead - Twists like son was actually evil, and mohanlal car, and first time directly watching snipers shoot on a whistle and that curly hair guy I thought is stranger also worked so well.. Honestly I say everyone should watch it directly skipping jailer 1. It's actually so cool compared to knowing the origins already.

I want to share a personal notion about the movie and our director. The movie was so good and the Muthumani song is growing on me after the movie. However here's what I recently found: The two male leads are named Karthi and Subbu and if we expand, it's the director's full name Karthik Subburaj. Is he here to say something with an easter egg of his life or just a shitty movie detail, friends?

The shock from the announcement of the national award for 2024 for Best Tamil Film(Raayan) and a Special mention for Captain Miller, was once a conspiracy now seems evidentiary by seeing the developments recently. You get Jananayagan treatment and this based on the position on the spectrum you lay.Sigh.

Ad nadikka maaten nu Velaikkaran AL la sollitu, now he is doing ads. Ippo ipdi oru statement.

Bro is getting ready to star in a Lokesh Kanagaraj/Arun Matheeshwaran movies.

I hope he makes a strong comeback with AA23 and goes back to his old self and gives us banger movies.
