Pushpa: The Rise - Part 1 (2021)
Its an excellent well written movie!
The director sets the pace to show these two contrasting personalities in the backdrop of 90s red sandalwood smuggling racquet . One doesn't know what respect is and the other thrives on it. Its the clash of these egos that gripped me to the seat. Characters are woven to the script with good archs and fine balance. It can be a story you might have known before but the intention is to narrate the story of alternate style of cinema which moves on performances and direction. The agitation of the protoganist comes from the fact that he is an outcast in the society. The director has to elevate him considering the direction he wants to go with the character. He needs to convince the audience of the 90s social order. The different hierarchies of the business and political order. The gap between these orders. The continuity in the narration without affecting the story and details of all the main characters is amazing.
The movie allowed the weight to distribute on to all the charachers instead of just the lead character. This is what is needed for good film making.
The climax scene where the antagonist and the protagonist meet shows us how deep the characters are built. What does it take when your ego is at stake. Will you bend and oblige or will you challenge your odds.
Sukumar I am stunned. Huge respect for giving working on this.
I have to take off one star for music and fight with the scarf . These things still exist for commercial reasons which are not needed but it wont impact the overall story. And the initial graffic is horrendous they could have used better CGI.
Camera work and screenplay is magnificent.
The alter egos will give audience a new dimension to think about 21st century telugu cinema,. This I consider is a good direction for telugu film making. Art hand crafted for non generic movie lovers.
Mismatched (2020)
Balanced but needs some fine tuning
I dont know why a lot of users are overly critical and rating it as 1 or 2 stars. I liked the story and how it progresses. There are certainly few letdowns but the narration keeps you engaged till the end. It very much is modern and to the point on college life.
The actors have done their part and fit very well into their characters arcs however there is a learning curve. Overall its a good watch as opposed how some people say terrible.
Maharshi (2019)
Terrbile movie
In ten years when you watch this movie you will be embarrassed with the direction tollywood has taken. Absolutely horrendous and my time is not even worth writing this review . God help telugu story writing and common sense.
