'Jolly LLB 2' review: Akshay Kumar is in top-form, Huma Qureshi is compelling too

Film: Jolly LLB 2

Rating:

Director: Subhash Kapoor

Cast: Akshay Kumar, Huma Qureshi, Anu Kapoor, Saurabh Shukla

On the face of it, apna Jolly is a novice indulging in petty crimes because he knows the loopholes ..

On the face of it, apna Jolly is a novice indulging in petty crimes because he knows the loopholes in the law. At home, he is the hen-pecked husband of lush, Pushpa Panday (Huma) who loves whisky, Gucci dresses and her chubby son in that order. But these are just asides and not the main premise of courtroom drama, which in many ways follows the template of the 2013 prequel, Jolly LLB.

Writer-director Subhash Kapoor who has studied India's burgeoning legal system of 'I-will-see-you-in-court', definitely knows as much about the Indian Penal Code as most legal sharks because of his deep study of the subject. While the last installment dealt with a hit-n-run case, this one deals with the case of mistaken identity of a J&K terrorist. The plot has enough laugh-out-loud situations and emotional outbursts to keep you invested especially in the razor-sharp first half. The film also provides the right dose of action inside and outside the courtroom. With cops playing villains and terrorists changing religions, legal greenhorn Jolly finds himself dodging bullets in Kanpur, Lucknow and Manali(doubling up for Kashmir)

Post interval though, the film hits a pause button at times. The maker tries to pack in too much legal diatribe between Jolly and his adversary, the topnotch, Pramod Mathur (Annu Kapoor), in Judge Tripathy's (Saurabh Shukla, delightful as always) Lucknow courtroom. Their weighty arguments do educate and entertain to some degree. But there are portions that seem contrived.

Akshay changes shades from crooked to straight, like a chameleon. In top-form, he puts up a perfect display of a street-smart lawyer who hasn't read legal tomes but who has instead picked up tips from courtroom corridors to become Jolly LLB. Huma and Annu are also compelling enough. It is the fine display of histrionics by all these refined actors, which makes the movie, worth seeing

BO update: Akshay Kumar's Jolly LLB 2 starts on a moderate note; business to pick over weekend -

The past couple of weeks have been tumultuous ones for the Akshay Kumar starrer JOLLY LLB 2 with petitions being filed against the film. However, braving all odds, the film which is a sequel to the Arshad Warsi - Boman Irani starrer JOLLY LLB that released in 2013, released today.

Opening to a moderate start with occupancy rates being pegged at approximately 35% JOLLY LLB 2 seems set to enjoy a rather good weekend. In fact the film that has received positive reviews and equally good word of mouth will witness a spurt in business over evening and night shows. Aiding the business further is the fact that JOLLY LLB 2 faces little to no competition this week, given that the previous releases including DANGAL are on their last leg in cinemas.

All in all, with a vacuum in entertainment after the previous two releases, viz. RAEES and KAABIL fading from theatres, JOLLY LLB 2 is set on having a stellar weekend.
