Telugu Review: 'Tuneega Tuneega' is just musical

Sat, 21 Jul 2012 12:58:13 +0530

Tamil Review: 'Saguni' is a complete entertainer

Sat, 23 Jun 2012 02:50:12 +0530

The wait is finally over. Karthi's 'Saguni' has hit the screens. The actor is back with a bang after almost a year (His last was 'Siruthai'). A mass masala stuff, right commercial ingredients and racy political sequences make up the movie.

Telugu Review: 'Endukante Premanta' disappoints

Sat, 09 Jun 2012 12:28:04 +0530

Before we watch a movie, we are usually aware of the kind of cinema we are going to watch. Whatever we had thought about 'Endukante Premanta' is turned upside down when we watch a romance-fiction unfold in front of our eyes. Karunakaran dares to be out-of-the-box this time, and his film borders on the surreal. He neither falls into the trap of Tamil-style story-telling nor makes it seem dreamlike; this is its qualification as well as disqualification. The surreal but beautiful world of Tamanna and Ram is juxtaposed with a universe of comedy scenes and tinsel songs; this is the film's biggest strength but also its greatest undoing. The interval twist jolts you and brings the first 10 minutes of the film to your mind.

Telugu Review: 'Adhinayakudu' is a family drama

Fri, 01 Jun 2012 04:12:00 +0530

'Adhinayakudu' is more a family drama than a political pot-boiler. Minus hyperbole, ridiculous stunts and over-the-top melodrama, 'Adhinayakudu' is watchable once, with the proceedings pepped up by a resurgent Balakrishna. Speaking of its other side, the film could have done better with a more interesting plot and less confusion. Paruchuri Murali has written good dialogues, but there is nothing to carry home for the fans out there. Some of the lines sound like mothballs, and it is the hero's characteristic baritone that saves the day. They would have sounded quite vacuous in the mouth of a lesser mortal. As for his directorial sense, it has its share of glaring loopholes which suffers the tempo and pace.

Telugu Review: 'Daruvu' is noisy and lost in chaos

Sat, 26 May 2012 10:26:52 +0530

Some people make films for themselves, and some others for juveniles. 'Daruvu' is a film made for the low brow. Even those given to mean enjoyment in an inebriated condition in the most godless hamlet would find this film cheap. Ravi Teja's peculiar mien and his knack for adapting to typical roles like that of 'Vikramarkudu' have a flip side to them. His strength has been vulnerable to maltreatment, and has, from time to time, been misused in some misadventures.

Telugu Review: 'Dammu' is pure heroism

Wed, 16 May 2012 04:24:09 +0530

If you are a die-hard fan of NTR, 'Dammu' is the film you should watch at least twice. It is because NTR's intense performance in the second half raises the roof, he wins the war with his frown look intact, delivering a brilliant acting output throughout. It is sumptuous meal for Nandamuri fans out there.

Telugu Review: 'Premalo Padithe' is juxtaposing

Wed, 16 May 2012 01:54:06 +0530

The strength of 'Premalo Padithe' lies in the climax: Here suspense is neatly unravelled and a love story develops into an immortal affair. This is a film where two underdogs are at the receiving end of circumstances. The villains of the piece comprise of an alliance of police-politician-capitalist troika, at the other end of the spectrum are Venu (Sri) and Jyothi (Urmila Mahantha), two poverty-stricken youngsters.Their lives are shattered by the actions of a lecherous Intermediate student, who doesn't know that they exist on earth.

Telugu Review: 'Rachcha' an average entertainer

Tue, 15 May 2012 06:18:06 +0530

After delivering a blockbuster like 'Magadheera' two years ago, it was felt that actor Ramcharan, son of Telugu megastar Chiranjeevi, would be occupying the pivotal place in the industry that indisputably belonged to his actor-turned-politician father. Unfortunately, his next film, 'Orange', produced by his uncle Naga Babu and directed by Bommarillu Bhaskar, was a flop. Therefore, Ramcharan took a longer time to accept a film and to select a commercially viable script before giving the nod to debutant Sampath Nandi's screenplay.

Telugu Review: 'Gabbar Singh' is a one man show

Sat, 12 May 2012 12:05:26 +0530

Pawan Kalyan, also popularly known as 'Power star', comes close to filling the big boots of Chulbul Pandey.
