Viduthalai 2 Review - Another Lengthy Preachy Movie On Oppression and Social Inequalities
A revolutionary leader named Perumal (Vijay Sethupathi) is imprisoned by the police in secret, but his followers get uneasy when word gets out. The police try to transport him through a thick forest to prevent problems, but an ambush by his followers causes mayhem. The plot depends on Perumal's outcome; will he give up, flee, or have a different fate?
Notable is Vetrimaaran's emphasis on the injustice experienced by marginalized people and the shadowy aspect of the police force. These problems are realistically depicted in the story, which gives it more substance. Despite its strengths, the story's overall execution comes out as strained and asymmetrical. To some extent, the first half of the movie is good, but the second part drags on too much, giving the impression that the movie is longer than it has to be. The story frequently takes on the tone of a sermon about tyranny and communism, which lessens its emotional effect.
The way that Vijay Sethupathi's persona changes from a school teaser to someone who is lured to communism is skillfully done. His sequences with Manju Warrier, who gives a nuanced and well-balanced performance, are expertly handled and make a significant narrative contribution.
The first half's action scenes are powerful and realistic, which enables viewers to empathize with the terrible environment the movie portrays. Supporting performers like gautam Vasudev Menon, Chetan, and rajiv menon are excellent at their parts and add subtle depth to the story. There are some thought-provoking conversations.

Additionally, the character emphasis seems unbalanced. A major character in the first section, Soori, is marginalized in favor of Vijay Sethupathi's past. Even while the flashback scenes are interesting at first, they seem needlessly drawn out and slow down the plot. The long woodland gunfire scene intensifies the sense of exhaustion, making the second part of the movie difficult to watch.
Tamil cinema in general has always been a bandwagon factory. Once something clicks, everyone jumps onto that bandwagon. Directors like Pa.Ranjith, and Mari Selvaraj made such movies and tasted success and now everyone wants a piece of that pie and the producers hire the directors who can make it happen.
Overall, Viduthalai 2 Is Yet Another Preachy movie Which Works Those Who love Lectures on Casteism, Social Inequalities
