This movie is pretty much like every other action film—no real story, just the same plot of tracking down terrorists.
What it is:
Singham is portrayed as a hero respected across the country, almost as if he’s the sole representative of India. The character is made overly grand, but the essence is lost.
What it should be:
In Singham 1, he was shown as a cop dedicated to his duty, refusing to fall prey to corruption and upholding the honor of the police force. A storyline in which this now-matured policeman fights against a loophole in the police system—taking on both corrupt officials and criminals who benefit from it—could have made this movie a masterpiece. Such a well-thought-out film could have even influenced real-life reforms, with its message potentially reaching Parliament, urging lawmakers to address the very issues highlighted in the movie. That’s the power of a strong script.
Despite this, the action scenes are impressive, and the cinematography is beautiful. But the storyline lacks substance, and the essence of what made Singham great is missing.
