War 2 is that kind of movie that attracts action-lover audiences easily because Jr. NTR and Hrithik Roshan are in the lead roles, and both are action heroes from the North and South sides. Yes, it is true that some fans of Tiger Shroff may be missing him because of War (2019), but trust me, Jr. NTRs action and dialogue delivery keep your eyes and mind on the screen from beginning to end.

The first half is the perfect combination of action and suspense. Audiences who have already watched War 2 can predict a little bit of what will happen next in terms of Hrithik Roshan, but Jr. NTR is new in this movie. Their action moves and what their intention is hide and are revealed in the second half of the movie, while another side Kiara Advani as Kavya Luthra, daughter of Sunil Luthra, plays a very important role in this movie her performance is the perfect combination of beauty and mind. 

The second half is fully action-oriented, where the whole movie revolves around Hrithik Roshan and Jr. NTR their fight becomes personal, while Pritam's background music is fantastic and adds an extra layer of curiosity and suspense. What's happening next is running through the audience's mind only.

After getting mixed reviews of Fighter (2024), Hrithik Roshan once again comes with an action thriller movie where he plays the role of Major Kabir Dhaliwal, a former intelligence agent who has become India’s most wanted man. In the first half, his performance is outstanding, like you are watching Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible, and the best thing about this movie is the unbelievable dancing steps of him. If you are a true fan of his other side, the second half, which is action moves, is the backbone of the movie.

After the success of Devara: Part 1 (2024), N. T. Rama Rao Jr., aka Jr. NTR, once again comes back with War 2, where he plays the role of Vikram. In South India, NTR is famous for energetic moves, so his fans call him Powerhouse. In the first half, his performance is decent in terms of action and dialogue delivery, but in the second half fight, you know why his fans call him powerhouse. 

Minus Points (-)

The problem with War 2 is that the first half is engaging in parts despite the routine nature of the film. Initially, it feels like watching War again, but the second half delivered something different.
