Critic Consensus
Critical reception for Commando 2 is largely negative, with most reviewers finding the film hampered by a weak, predictable plot and a lack of narrative cohesion. The one element that drew consistent, if qualified, praise was Vidyut Jammwal's physical action sequences and combat skills, though several critics noted these moments were too infrequent or insufficiently thrilling to carry the film. Common criticisms included an overstretched runtime, a thin script, and a superficial treatment of its black money premise that critics found unconvincing. The film was broadly seen as appealing only to committed fans of the genre or the lead actor.

"This film gets tiring very quickly. Sadly, it feels as pointless as a demonetized 500-rupee note."Read full review ↗
"Commando 2 does not explore a novel theme - it's the classic good vs evil - but the high-voltage action makes this an entertaining one for fans of the genre."Read full review ↗
"The blaring 'Commando commando' background during the action scenes is strikingly outdated. Overstretched and uninspiring, this film is reminiscent of a poor man's Abbas Mustan film. Even decent action cannot salvage this dreary supposed crime thriller."Read full review ↗
"Commando 2 is strictly for Vidyut Jammwal fans and for those who have a thing for action-fests!"Read full review ↗
"A little more attention to the plot would have turned it into a far better product than it is right now. But if the ultimate aim is to showcase your hero as a badass killing machine, should you really care about cohesive narration?"Read full review ↗
"Commando 2 does no justice to its name. It's a lackluster action film with remotely riveting story."Read full review ↗
"COMMANDO 2 is a predictable entertainer that would appeal only to its target audience. At the Box-Office, it will do a fair business."Read full review ↗
"Commando 2 lacks heart and is all muscles. If may not even quench your thirst for some adrenaline-pumping stunts."Read full review ↗
"The bright spot in this fight-fuelled drama is Jammwal, whose blows pack a punch. Watch this only if you are a fan of body combat and bloody fist fights."Read full review ↗
"Commando Karanvir Singh (Vidyut Jammwal) is a superhero-crusader without the Superman costume. His guiding principle is: Jab tak jaan hai koshish karte rehna hai. He tries too hard. It weighs down the film"Read full review ↗
"There's more unintended hilarity and very little combat to justify the existence of a sequel. And while Jammwal definitely can score in the daredevil department, he needs a script much more robust than his physique for the viewer to endure everything between the stunt scenes. Commando 2's endlessly mindless proceedings do not come anywhere close to fulfilling that criterion."Read full review ↗
"The film's impressive action scenes and pretty hero cannot compensate for its limited substance, which matters particularly because the action is not unrelenting. While Karan is bashing up baddies, it is hard to look away from the screen. When he is not, it becomes easy. Sadly, there is more to Jammwal than that face, body and his fighting skills. Someone give this man a more substantial film, please."Read full review ↗
"Commando 2 is an action film that decides to wear another mask; of topicality, social consciousness and patriotism, all for the heck of it. In the process the film loses its own identity entirely."Read full review ↗
"Commando 2 is recommended viewing for the Finance Ministry, fans of actresses who steal scenes from under the noses of their bulky heroes, and advocates of films that are extensions of the government's Directorate of Advertising and Visual Publicity department. Its efforts to make sense of and communicate a solution for the black money economy is even less competent than the government's authoritarian measure."Read full review ↗
