arjun-tkalathil3 November 2019
Lingusaamy still in 90's and the story is too old and very predictable.Much boring screenplay and there are a good song also.Same mixing of old movie scenes.I will not recommend this one to anyone even vishal fans also hate this type of part 2!

An average Movie
vinothdharma23 October 2018
Don't expect too much. Not up to the mark. Lingusamy didn't put enough effort for this movie you don't get the satisfaction after watching the movie. It feels like an average movie.

Waste of time, don't waste your time expecting like sandakozhi 1. Irritating keerthy Suresh expression.

Worst sequel. 2 stars just for yuvan. The film didn't even match 1 percent of the first part.

Much expected sequel, but totally wasted. Giving 2 stars for Varalakshmi's acting.

Watchable Commerial Entertainer after a long time
saru202027 October 2018
It was not as bad as most of the reviewers said. Just that it was somewhat equivalent to how the old commercial tamil movies were. I liked the 1st half very much, stunts were just fabulous aka goosebumps moments, huge surprise was that the herione/love scenes were also somewhat watchable, Keerthy Suresh definitely stealed the show for a while. On a high level, I think, except the last 30mins and the useless songs, overall the movie was a pakka commercial product. It would've been a sureshot for the director after a long time, if he would've removed the useless songs & dialogues, especially the dialogues in the climax were just terrible & unnecessary as most/all the things mentioned orally did happen visually as well. Rajkiran's character buildup was nearly perfect. Vishal's appearance/performance was satisfying. Keerthy Suresh did a good job in entertaining a bit. Yuvan's BGM did give some goosebumps experience but Songs were not at all satisfying enough. Vengeance/Anger being the base of the movie, Varalakshmi's character was designed with a Negative shade with the same repeated closeups was a blunder, it seemed obvious that they tried to replicate the same experience of Shreya Reddy lin Thimiru, it could've been hugely improvised though as the Artist was definitely worth it to have done such a role.

Sandakozhi 2
santhosh-1029021 March 2019
Not a so good movie. Everybody did not acted so well. Songs and BGM in the movie was so good. The movie became bad because of the Varalakshmi's reason for revenge and the flashback was very silly. Many characters in the movie were wasted. The movie was not at all interesting or thrilling. There are no twists and turns. Fight scenes in the movie was excellent.

A Fair Entertainer.
yashimaxx-2779719 October 2018
Not a very complex plot. Still they bring the thiruvilla in front of your eyes. It had a feel as if we were really in a thiruvilla. The charachters scored thier maximum potential. The action sequences were tollerable. DOP has done an excellent job. And yuvan has juzt done his job justifying. Still a few things could have been avoided. Certain stunts of keerthy suresh were logical loop holes in the movie. Alas the climax was not crispy as the part 1. Part 1 had just one dialouge. But here vishal starts to advice. Apart from all of this a good one time watchable family entertainer.

Hell loose
drhemanthkumarpeople19 October 2018
Dir lingu lost his touch. Varalakshmi doesnt do justice or she fits in character.. keerthi suresh isnt to the mark.. trying and failing to impress audience. Jokes.. pls forget.. dance and songs not to the mark Vishal the same sterotyped character.. emotions n acting far behind

Review Sandakozhi 2
Magow-Intermean14 November 2018
Warning: Spoilers
In Sandakozhi 2, the protagonist, Balu, and his father, Durai Ayya (Rajkiran) are often compared to a couple of lions, and the two characters do actually behave so. This is why when Pechi (Varalaxmi Sarathkumar) and the men in her family try to hunt down Anbu, the last male in a clan that they have sworn revenge against, they are unable to do anything.

Lingusamy raises the stakes for Balu by having Ayya get injured grievously. But Ayya wants his son to ensure that Anbu is saved at all cost, and that the week-long thiruvizha that the seven villages of the place are conducting after a gap of seven years, remains peaceful.

The broader set-up of Sandakozhi 2 - of a young man whose life is threatened during a festival - has shades of Vamsam (where it was the protagonist who had to save himself), and also calls back to the first Sandakozhi (where the villain wants to murder a young man at all cost). And director Lingusamy, for the most part, gives us a film that is as much a masala movie as the first film. We get a couple of good masala movie moments - one involves Balu tackling Pechi's men and spoiling their attempt on Anbu's life in the midst of the festival, while another involves a stunt scene involving Balu and Ayya that cross cuts between the action that is taking place in two different places.

The romantic track, too, is entertaining as in the first film, with a female lead (Keerthy Suresh) who is as chirpy as the heroine of that film. The fate of the latter is something that the film doesn't get into in detail - all we get is Ayya mentioning that something happened seven years ago that left Balu dejected. The set-up of the romantic track is also familiar - the girl mistakes Balu to be a driver in Ayya's household and keeps ordering him about, which he is only happy to do. And Keerthy Suresh makes this character seem cute without turning her into yet another loosu ponnu heroine.

But the problem with the film is that it lacks punch of the first film. The narrative is somewhat uneven as Lingusamy, for whom, the film is definitely a step up from Anjaan, doesn't sustain the tension throughout, and goes for unnecessary songs (especially in the second half) and scenes that are less impactful on screen than they must have been on paper. Pechi is a one-note character, and despite the presence that Varalaxmi lends to the role, she doesn't appear as a serious threat. And the character of Anbu, is underwritten. Hari, who plays this role, is asked to act like a deer caught in the headlights in almost every scene. But these failures don't derail the movie, which remains tolerable even in its less compelling portions.
