"This movie is lame – totally" my lil daughter in her heavily accented, peer induced valspeak would say when there's a movie she doesn't like. This movie isn't an exception. The storyline is cheezy from the word Go. After the Gangnam style success of its prequel, the 2 version is not even close to " pen pineapple". Of course trying to dilute Indian rock music, with its familiar 5 note piano ballad preludes and mediocre guitar riffs that repeat monotonously bar after bar, like a young child experimenting on a new sampler into something even unfamiliar for the Indian masses broca- like the Khasi folk fusion, is an experiment filled with rash risks. Farhan preferred to piggy back on that suicide note instead.This is nothing more than a Pen Pineapple formula gone wrong. Save the celluloid for something worthwhile. Pay more for quality story writing.
... View MoreI generally don't see Hindi movies much as i don't enjoy much and i have not seen rock on 1, but yesterday went to see Rock on 2 as friend insisted and I would say it was Completely Entertaining. I enjoyed the movie from beginning till end and really enjoyed and I will see this movie again as its not one time watch for me. After watching movie it reminded of young passionate, enthusiastic young singer of school and college day and i really liked Shashank Arora, Rahul, Purab and Jiah character . Really enjoyed Shillong scenes. I am fond of rock music and really like all the music and specially like the last music featuring Jiah.I will rate movie 10+ because i totally enjoyed movie .
... View MoreRockon 2 could have been more musical and should have included more classics from rockon 1 like 'sinbadh the sailor'. The movie included a couple of new desi-rock numbers. The story beings when Farhan Akhtar reaches out to help a farmers in north east. He is on a self excile vindicated by his bad karma that leads to the death of a budding singer. The plot goes on and reunites with his friends and restarts the musical troop. The flow is okay and the story interconnects well.Felt the camera work is better in RockOn 1. Prachi Desai was underutilized and could have been given more frames to the movie. This could be due to the introduction of Shraddha Kapoor.Overall movie has tried to keep-up the expectations to be more musical. They could have included more classical rock numbers.
