Jailer 2 movie review

has received mixed reviews, with Rajinikanth’s screen presence emerging as one of its biggest strengths. The Times of India gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, describing it as a satisfying sequel that continues the story of retired jailer Tiger Muthuvel Pandian. The film brings back familiar elements from the first instalment while adding new characters and larger action sequences.
