Ragini MMS 2 Steamy & Slightly Scary
Ekta Kapoor's Ragini MMS is unabashed about what it wants to do -- scare
and sexcite. It's a genre which an obnoxious filmmaker in the film calls, horrex!
When Sunny Leone is cast in the lead, await heaving bosoms, chesty close-ups and teeny-weeny
nightwear. Sunny makes love under a shower, imagines one in a bathtub, with a different
guy, and goes ooh-aah on a bed before the entire cast and crew. She evens shares a lip-to-lip
with Sandhya Mridul. It doesn't matter if you haven't watched the
first edition of Ragini MMS as the sequel makes enough references to it for you to catch
up with what's been going on. Ragini is now in a mental hospital as the
sole survivor of a carnage in a haunted house. And Rocks, an abominable filmmaker, has just
announced a film on her while salivating over his heroine, *** star Sunny Leone.
Rocks takes his main cast and crew to the same haunted house where the carnage happened
a few years ago. His hero is TV star Maddy who fancies himself a stud and he's seduced
by Sunny under the shower. Sunny roams the house at night in shorts that look like ***.
And a strong silent writer called Satya Kumar stands by her. He's next in the bathtub with
her. Meanwhile, Divya Dutta playing Ragini's new
psychiatrist, Dr Meera Dutta digs up the past to comprehend what's going on in the haunted
house. But tonight is Maha Kartik Purnima, the night when spirits claim their prey. After
a series of creaky doors, grotesque faces and children's voices reverberating in the
house, and Sunny Leone panting in her ***, the writer and the doctor pull off mission
bhoot. Don't ask for logic like, doesn't Ragini's
psychiatrist know that she died four days ago? Or what happened to the guy who got killed
a night before the shooting started? On the plus side, there's a bit of humour
strewn around, like when *** star Sunny Leone wants to research Ragini's case, Rocks stutters,
'Research? When did a *** star become 'Rituporno'?' TV star Maddy wears a tight Tee that reads
Human Being, ulta of Salman Khan's famous Being Human. Maddy is also quite funny when
he shows off an array of expressions by flaunting precisely the same one for different moods,
or when he goes after Sunny in Dharmendra's voice.
Sandhya Mridul as a bit actress with dreadful English, is amusing while Divya Dutta is reliable,
as always. Newcomer Saahil Prem as the strong and silent
writer, has an impressive screen presence and will be heard of in the days to come.
This is not great cinema for sure and it's in-your-face with its predictable horror and
seduction. But for giving the viewer precisely what it promises, Ragini MMS 2 gets a 3* rating.
