Race 2 is the sequel to the 2008 hit film, Race.

The story of Race 2 is set in the lush locales of exotic Europe, with a backdrop of gambling and Casinos.

A fast paced thriller that takes the legacy of 'Race1' forward, with high octane action, combined with thrills and twists that have a roller coaster effect, and edge of the seat excitement.

Story

The story of Race 2 starts with Ranvir Singh's (Saif Ali Khan) girlfriend Sonia's (Bipasha Basu) murder and the former's quest for revenge from the killer. A depressed and sombre Ranvir heads to Turkey and meets Armaan Malik (John Abraham), who has actually murdered Sonia.

Multi-millionaire Armaan is a man who loves nothing more than money and Ranvir's motto is to destroy his girlfriend's killer, by snatching away all his riches. This is where Ranvir meets the super sexy Elena (Deepika Padukone), Armaan's sister, who has no better job except getting onto the bed with the former.

Then, we are introduced to one more hottie Jacqueline Fernandes, Armaan's loyal girlfriend or you may call her just a 'sidekick' in the movie. You need not disturb your brain at all in the first half as it serves no content, expect some eye-catching chiselled hot bods, designer wardrobes, swanky cars and a journey to exotic foreign locales.

How Ranvir beats Arman in his own game and avenges Sonia's death with the help of retired cop Robert D'Costa(Anil Kapoor) and his assistant Cherry (Ameesha Patel) forms the second half. 

What’s Good: The stylish direction; the Pritams music.

What’s Bad: The dreary twist-after-twist; the acting; logic flies away like the car out of an airplane.

Last word: Race 2 is all about show-offs, wannabes and a few gorgeous sidekicks. Hence, it's definitely worth giving a miss. I would give this a half point extra for the breathtaking 'cage act'by John, hence two-and-half on the whole for this lame sequel.
