What the critics say

Critics call 2.0 a visually spectacular, VFX-driven showcase for Rajinikanth and Akshay Kumar, though several find the story thin and repetitive of Shankar's earlier work and the pacing dragging in the first half.

How this number was made. We read every review and derive a 0–100 reading from each — including where the critic printed a number, which stays first on its row, because it’s theirs. The Filmi Score is the mean of 7 readings; 5 of those rows also carry the critic’s own rating, shown beside ours. Rubric v2.1, computed 26 Oct 2026. Any critic can ask us to remove a derived reading.
