Love, the way it is seen these days, needs to be questioned. However, that doesn’t make any sense when such a topic is dealt with half baked theories about it, formed because of one or two emotional situations. This is Orange’s short coming, otherwise it is a good entertainer, with good comedy and is over all a positive movie. It's fate, however depends on how the so-called masses take it!
The film falls into its own trap, thanks to limitations in the story itself. The dialogues in few emotional scenes remind of TV serials. However Siddharth eases into the role of a village guy, quite unlike his old lover boy movies! He even managed the East Godavari accent well to an extent, but his expressions, his mischievous smiles are amazing.
Siddharth’s fans will love this film and few might go to ogle at Pranitha. Family audiences, especially women, might like this second half.
Rakta Charitra has unexpectedly least entertainment value for a typical viewer of Telugu cinema, yet it never bores you. As expected it is a documentary style film, and has more violence than one can imagine. Watch it at your own risk, but this is an unforgiving film and you won’t forget it too soon
The movie makes no apologies about the fact that it is out to entertain using all the clichés possible and banks heavily on NTR to see them through. Overall, it can be a onetime watch as it’s a total masala entertainer
The fun of having a great star, a talented director and equally good cast and crew can be seen and felt through out the film. However, the treatment of the film could have been better. Watch it for Mahesh.
The first half is exceptional with the way it raises seemingly simple, but extremely profound questions like - can a robot have feelings, and if so what should its responsibility be?
Even in the second half there are those small references to Ramayana and Bhasmasura story, for those who can find them! At the end of it all boils down to individual, emotional and social responsibility of a human, raised because of the Robot!
It entertains, thrills, and makes one think of what’s possible! Don’t even think about giving it a miss, and watch it on big screen!
Director Vamsi has been known for his interesting films like ‘Manchu Pallaki’, ‘Sitara’, ‘Anveshana’ etc. His last few films are far from his early ones. ‘Saradaga Kasepu’ is few moons away from his best works. However, Telugu audiences have always loved comedy, no matter where and how it comes from. They might end up liking this film.
Loudness works but not all the time. Romance has naughty side to it but not all the time. A villain can be egoistic, but he wouldn’t become a villain if he was a fool in the first place. This is where ‘Komaram Puli’s director S.J.Suryah should have balanced better.
‘Komaram Puli’ has its good moments, but it is the bad moments that out number the good ones by a huge margin. The film will survive only if the fans want it to.
‘Gayam 2’ is no ‘Gayam’, where one scene after another keeps getting better and better. But it is a worthy sequel. Yes it has problems, but most are forgivable because of the content the film deals with. Go watch it for the way it brings some modern cinematic language to Telugu.
The story deals with lot of issues like acid attacks on girls, suicides, misunderstandings, false prestige and so on., sometimes going overboard with the ‘giving lessons’ part. By the time almost all characters reach their happy endings, we are bored with what’s happening.
Soft love stories are always watched by people of all ages. ‘Nuvve Kavali’, ‘Manasantha Nuvve’, ‘Nuvve Nuvve’ etc. have all been able to entertain audiences because of the honesty the main characters portray. The endings of these films work around this honesty! It is exactly where ‘Happy Happy Gaa’ fails to convince. Otherwise the film had a chance to be encouraged.
‘Don Seenu’ is a typical Telugu pot boiler and is pure fun aimed to tickle funny bones, packaged with a Ravi Teja seal to it. Watch it without expectations, and don’t forget to bring your pop corn along. You will thoroughly be entertained.
The film is made aiming at certain sections of the society and it might attract few of them to the theatres. Its success lies in whether they will accept what the story is telling.
Maryada Ramanna is a well-made entertainer that can definitely be watched! It’s a wonderful surprise to be kept entertained throughout without having to see blood & gore set amidst bombs and sickles.
