patrick_pugh2000 "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.

Ankit Bhatnagar An unsuccessful attempt to merge the previous version with the new direction and story. Bad acting, worse script and even worse direction. When you see the film you realize Shankar Ehsaan Loy have done a good job (if not great, of course) with the music. It's easily visible that the makers were not ready with the right ingredients for this sequel. This movie shouldn't have been made (from a die hard Rock On fan).Storyline Rating: 2 Content: 2 Commercialization: 3 Entertainment: 2Acting Rating: 2 Farhan Akhtar: 2 Purab Kohli: 3 Shraddha Kapoor: 2 Arjun Rampal: 1 Shashank Arora: 2Direction Rating: 1Music Rating: 3Cinematography: 3Editing: 1

abhinesh-sethumadhav-879-657598 Rockon 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.

dineshprakash Again this film is just made to encash its prequel success. Story is sometimes very idle and sometimes confusing. Screenplay is so convenient. Flashes of a person committing suicide in starting few minutes just for induce curiosity but soon it becomes lame. You just guess the incident going to happen till interval point. This suicide track is main reason of choosing to shift in secluded village of Shillong, by male lead Adi, due to extra dose of self guilt but when character of that suicide committing person is revealed, you don't feel any sympathy towards him which makes main lead idiotic for making such dramatic decision. He is a family loving guy but does not care to live separate from them. Screenplay takes 45 minutes to make main lead back to Mumbai in his music world and reason behind this was fire broken in forest which effects poor local's life badly. You just have to bear this 45 minutes with male lead birthday reunion with family and old friends with some lengthy emotional dialogues but sadly you don't feel the emotions. A local villain was introduced there like a trading middleman but turns a strong connection Politician after interval because he has to be main obstacle for pre climax. There was unnecessary track of new heroine which badly sidelines the first one and fails to justify herself too. You laugh on pre climax fight which must have included to enhance drama. Then long climax tests your patience, which you were already lost till then. This film was supposed to have at least few good music number but here that is missing completely. Shriek in name of singing is there. Performance wise all are just OK. A character Manjyot, played by Dinesh Kumar, he is better than all established ones. He ably entertains in every frame.
