A really cool action/crime flick that raises questions if theres a right to wrong and if there are motives that justify woringdoing for both police and criminals.

The fight scenes r beautifully choreographed, i really liked the dynamic between saif ali khan and radhika apte - the way their marriage was depicted was really nice to watch. The characters are all multi faceted and it is very interesting to see how the story evolves and theres noone who is just good or just bad.

The dialogues r great and the whole cast gives stellar performances.

A great film! I really recommend it. Cant wait to see more.

Aaaaand another bad movie from marvel. Are there any good ones at all i may ask? While pb1 had nice action sequences and beautiful costumes and sets, a flawless soundtrack, really great acting with captivating characters and an almost interesting story this movie now is a total bust imo. It is beyond boring and i dont understand why its almost three hrs long?? I do enjoy epic stories and long runtimes when the story of the film requieres that but this movie could be definitely shorter and more exciting. But unfortunately its dull dialogue after dull dialoge, then some cringy >sad< scenes abt death + loss and sometimes some action sequences sprinkled in but they are so generic and dont save the film. AT ALL! And while most sets and fx were spectacular in bp 1 its seems for bp 2 the budget was cut bc some sets and most fx and action sequences look cheap. The underwater world looks very nice, though, and some of the costumes stand out (the beautiful blue ppls head pieces and tenoch huertas costume and jewellery). But while bp 1 was so creative and had somewhat of a soul this film is lacking in eeevery department.

I should mention that letitia wright is a true hero because she carries the whole - bad - movie on her shoulders (why isnt it mentioned anywhere that she is the main character actually) and tenoch huerta is a great villain and wonderful talent (he was great in the last purge installment also). Both wright and huerta deserve more leading roles. They truly shine in this messy film.

One point of critique: why did the even make a BLACK PANTER movie when there is NO BLACK PANTER!? Its ridiculous!

Its time that hollywood finally starts making good movies again instead those silly franchise films.

This is a very disappointing finale! I am still in shock how bad it is + how much it lacked emotion, suspense and mistery! Instead of a great final halloween schocker we got: a first half that is beyond boring, full of empty characters, a love story that doesnt make sense + doesnt captivate + elevates the film + characters, one dimensional characters and whose deaths dont shock at all bc they re just there and it could be any character whatsoever. The second half has some michael meyers and some laurie strode but they are just there because the movie is titled halloween but it could be any movie with this silly convoluted story. It just doesnt seem like a halloween film at all. In the movie itself theres no halloween festivites like in the pervious films except some pumpkins. Where are the kids running around, the teenagers enjoying the halloweend festivities? The whole setting of the film seems off!

And the interesting + loveable characters from halloween kills that survived? They re just standing around in some scenes instead of getting a bigger role

It is ridiculous + just so bad.

Lets hope for a better sequel after this disappointment if the film studio decides to redeem itself after making this truly horrible film.
