Murder 2 (2011)

One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Not surprisingly, Mohit Suri makes yet another rip-off (the Korean movie 'Chaser') and, of course, with the added recycled Bhatt material (eunuch 'rapist' villain -as evident in 'Sadak' and 'Sangharsh'), clumsy sex scenes and the Bollywood ingredients (song and 'dance', including the required item number). It may not be among the most expensive films but it's quite apparent that a lot of money has been spent. However, 'Murder 2' still looks and feels like a B-movie. Camera-work is overdone. Editing is shoddy. Too many subplots that aren't fleshed out, lots of plot holes. The use of light is effective especially in the nocturnal sequences. Most of the performances are average at best. Emraan Hashmi does go overboard in several scenes. Jacqueline Fernandez seems to only have been required for her body. Sulagna Panigrahi does a confident job and... if there is one reason to watch 'Murder 2' at all then that's Prashant Narayanan who easily steals the show as the ruthless vicious sociopathic serial killer. One good that came from the box office success of this forgettable, rather lacklustre thriller is the appreciation of this actor, most of whose memorable works received little recognition.

I have watched it today 29,April 2012.That was really superb n awesome movie. I couldn't even leave it for a second... Full of entertainment, mystery and spicy movie. All the songs very beautifully sung and the lyrics very also very good. Specially the last song "Ae-Khuda". Today i have become fan of "Mohit Suri" and i hope more good movies to be released n directed by him.. Emran Hasmi did very superb acting, Priya was looking too hot through out the movie... although she was there for very short scenes.... Oh yeah. The villain......... hahaha.... He was really very freaking creature...... moreover acting was very good by him too. If its still on cinemas..... go and watch it.Rather buy two tickets. One for yourself n one for me because i m planning to watch it again... ;) 10/10

Before coming to this site I was convinced that this movie is one of the lesser quality original productions of Mahesh Bhat, but after coming here I am convinced that this movie is a poor quality reproduction of the Korean movie, "The Chaser".But I will still treat this movie as a original production and offer the following comments:To really like this movie you need to believe in the following1. A horribly inept police force 2. Murder stories have an completely emotional story line and absolutely zero logic 3. A dumb Pimp Mafia or whateverFrom the beginning the police force is a mere spectator giving emotional responses after our hero has performed. Forget everything about them doing their job. Forget completely about logic and the less i mention it the better i will feel, but let me give an example anyway. A girl is facing south when she is being murdered but is facing north when our hero sees her. As for our Pimp mafia, well they are dumb enough not to realize that all the girls are disappearing after a particular customer calls, Our hero has to point this out after approx 13 have disappeared. I am a bit foggy about the numbers as is the movie.Please do read the plot summary of The Chaser before you watch this movie and you will probably forgive the producer for blatantly trying to copy Kevin Spacey's character from Seven, or for introducing a heroine who is actually not required in the script. You might also forgive the honest media that is full of reviews and promotions but does not hint that this is a copied movie so standards may vary, or fall completely...

OK, this movie is a prime example of how some of the Indian population rates movies. This movie was actually a box office hit.Let's start. Firstly, the cover of the movie shows Jacqueline Fernandes and Emraan Hashmi in a lot of highly sexual scenes. This is enough to get at least 60% of the population interested even without looking at the plot. The girls will watch it for Emraan and the guys will watch it for Jacqueline.Second, what does this movie teach? It teaches that a murderer can kill over 12 girls and not get caught by the police, instead he gets caught by an ex-cop. Then, even after the murderer confesses to his crime, he is actually able to walk out of the police station scott free. Then, he kills the person who freed him plus another girl while police were parked right outside the place where he was doing the killing.What will people think when they watch this movie? They'll think Indian cops are a bunch of idiots who let sociopaths get away even after they confess to a crime in the police station.Now anyone who knows psychology knows that this guy didn't have a problem with his sexual identity. He had an anti-social personality disorder. Watch Dexter, a TV series, if you don't understand.I'm just disappointed and ashamed, since I'm an Indian myself, I know there are waaay better movies out there. I know that kids in India will be watching this since nobody cares about the ratings there.Even after this, it's still a box office success! Yay go erotic advertising and hormones!I do have to say one good thing about this movie - the music. Every song in this movie is amazing!
