Gangs of Wasseypur part 2 movie Review : Anurag's Brilliance

Gangs of Wasseypur part 2 movie film review full movie review waseypur 2 GOW review 2

This instalment is a trademark display of the director's hardheaded slant to story-telling. With a lengthened runtime, the story dips a little, though marginally, at the middle of the subsequent half. But gathers momentum and steam ensuing a stunning climax. Gangs of Wasseypur 2 is a revenge story, a illustration of reckoning connecting peer groups of gangsters. The writing is unrepressed and creative. 

Crammed with stimulating  characters with eccentric names such as Tangent, Perpendicular and Definite, GANGS OF WASSEYPUR 2 is attention-grabbing, fascinating and gripping than the initial part. Along with pulsating characters, Anurag Kashyap integrate humor adeptly in the progression of events. It also exemplify how Wasseypur is inspired with Bollywood; they copy hairdos and appearances of various Hindi movie heroes. While there is little doubt that GANGS OF WASSEYPUR was winning to the core, GANGS OF WASSEYPUR 2 infuses some remarkable light moments in the tale that smell of revenge and retaliation. 

 

The pillars of the movie is strengthened by its enthralling performances. GOW2 belongs to Nawazuddin Siddiqui, playing the protagonist, he beams out a lot of charisma with authenticity and controlled grace. His act is of convincing that you cannot detach him from the part. Same applies to the very charming Huma Qureshi, who mesmerises the screen with some marvellous and realistic scenes with Nawaz. In one word – she's  FANTASTIC ! Richa Chadda draws poise to her character. Her character grows old, but she is convincing in her portrayal, through tone of voice, body language, facial expression and eye movements. Tigmanshu Dhulia as Ramadhir Singh excels, especially at the fag end of the film. Piyush Mishra conveys a lot through his gestures, which is the hallmark of any brilliant actor. 

 

 

Definite and Perpendicular, the two new actors who depict these never-seen-before characters, are remarkable. Reemma Sen doesn't get much scope here. Pankaj Tripathi breathes fire in his part. Watch him gun down his sister; the expressions on his face gives you goose bumps. Anurita Jha is effective. Rajkumar Yadav, Vineet Singh, Jameel Khan, Yashpal Sharma, each actor justifies his presence in the movie.

 

The screenplay will not make you feel that its repetitive, there is not a single scene in the film that leaves you with a sense of deja vu. Not just the plot of the movie,  but the music needs to applauded. After presenting moviegoers with some sprightly sounds in GANGS OF WASSEYPUR, music composer Sneha Khanwalkar returns with some impressive music in the succeeding chapter of the film. While 'Hunter', 'Womaniya' and 'Bihar Ke Lala' remain etched in the hearts and on the lips of many, the songs in the subsequent installment, 'Chi Cha Leather' and 'Kaala Rey' have incredible recall value. Also, I'd like to point out that Anurag uses the songs against the film's most violent and fierce scenes, which hardly ever happens in a Hindi movie. And to leave the audience surprised, Anurag uses the songs against the film's most violent and fierce scenes – something you've not experienced in any Hindi movies ever.

 

Gangs of Wasseypur 2 may demand patience from some of the viewers, but I enjoyed the pace and the time it took to settle down. It's like reading beautiful prose, whether or not you like what is written, you admire the way it is written. More often than not, you find yourself wondering if this is India's very own Godfather. Yet, it doesn't take away from the nagging incomplete feeling. Though what it also means is you are asking for the more you have been promised with utmost eagerness. 

 

 

In its entirety, GANGS OF WASSEYPUR 2 belongs to its director,  Anurag Kashyap, who needs to be applauded for picking a subject which most filmmakers might not have. Can be labelled as one of Anurag's brilliant work till date. Watch it for its absolute cinematic brilliancy!
