Nice time-pass movie for a weekend with child. Adam Sandler's production. Feel-good for kids specifically. Most of the movie happens inside the classroom. Little bit of creative imagination, of course. Some of the kids' characters are portrayed well - strengths and weaknesses.

Movie starts off in a negative mode and then starts dipping and dipping for almost an hour, to the point where you almost dont want to watch it but it is evident that things will start going up somewhere. It does, and again, it is evident that there will be another crash soon, and it is just a matter of time. Slight twists in the tale here and there, and suddenly there are many endings visible. The narrator and director chose the one which seems to be fair enough. Good tale altogether, lot of messages for the youth on where not to go wrong. The dad's role and Principal's role are brilliant. The Hero's casting seems to be very bold. All female casting is up top-class. Although storyline shows how degree certificate is of paramount importance to getting a job, one point they missed to highlight is that even if one does not go to college, they can indeed succeed in corporate life - which is something the main character proves indeed.

A sequel that lived upto it's prequel! While the fighting and violence is kind of all gory and unrealistic (like most fight scenes in most movies these days), the theme and the tale more than makes up for any misses as such. The divine interventions are well cut-out, the tale moving from one plot (the King) to another (the 'other' tribals) and to another (King and 'other' tribals) with a smooth twist in the end. The art of temple consecration is very well taken indeed, and also how a 'divine power' can be used both negatively and positively. Wit is good and not too much nor too less. Location setting is awesome amidst lush greenery. The writer and director has the distinct knowledge of Primordial Energy and their team, in this tale, has brought about that knowledge as best as how humans can understand. This is definitely a movie not to be missed.
