Full on violence only for RK fans
My god what toxicity!
First thing it's a violent movie with lot of bloodshed, nudity, liplocks so much that at a point you may feel vomiting. It seems that all the characters live in some Utopian world where lawlessness is paramount. All the human beings are as good as machines ( which we all are becoming now a days) with zero sensitivity.
As far as technical part is concerned it is brilliant. Acting of Anil Kapoor, Bobby an Ranbir are superlike. Female characters are just to satisfy their male counterparts. You feel they are just objects of senses.
Even if you miss this movie you will miss nothing. You might save your soul from consuming some toxicity.
A FATHER SON TALE CARVED IN BLOOD
Ranbir Kapoor's introduction as a "superstar" in the film initially raised skepticism for me. However, as I reached the halfway point, it became evident that he truly deserved the title.
Sandeep Reddy Vanga's promise to showcase genuine violence in cinema was effectively fulfilled. In an era dominated by high-budget action films and contrived flashbacks, Vanga dared to create a world where everything is heightened to the maximum, making the violence seem normal and the behavior even more unsettling. One particularly striking scene involves Ranbir, who, after discovering a mole, compels the individual to lick his shoe as a bizarre demonstration of love. It's a level of intensity reminiscent of something Quentin Tarantino might appreciate.
Addressing the question of logic, it's acknowledged that the film, like many others, is inherently illogical. Drawing parallels with films like Vikram, KGF, and Bahubali, it's recognized that crafting a movie with absolute logical coherence is a formidable challenge.
However, the film does have its drawbacks. The character arcs of certain individuals, such as the mother, sister, and villain, felt underdeveloped. The hero's revenge arc could have benefited from more nuanced writing, and Rashmika's character, while an improvement from Vanga's previous works, still warranted additional depth.
In summary, while I wouldn't classify it as a masterpiece, the film has its merits, particularly in exploring the dynamics of father-son and husband-wife relationships alongside the intense action sequences. It's a unique cinematic experience that some may appreciate for its visceral yet somewhat polarizing elements.
