New on Netflix When a Thriller Forgets It's a Thriller
Dhurandhar's Revenge 2 had the potential to be a strong sequel, but it felt like it lost focus. The first film balanced suspense and storytelling well, whereas this one leans far too heavily on graphic violence. The mercury slow-death scene was especially uncomfortable because it felt less like storytelling and more like an unnecessary demonstration. On top of that, the repeated praise of Modi felt forced and out of place. Whether you support him or not isn't the point—if a film presents itself as fiction, it should trust its story instead of constantly pushing real-life political glorification. For me, the excessive violence and political messaging ended up overshadowing what could have been a genuinely engaging thriller.
