Its very tricky to do justice to a big story in time limits of a regular movie but this does have that balance in first released part.
Good: Some key flashback context like combat b/w arjun & Karn were spot on , Story is gripping, Visuals are amazing.
Thing that can be better : Prabhas in first part , maybe they could have gone with usual dubbing of Sharad kelkar in Hindi , though time is given to build character in first half but apart from Amitabh Ji no one is able to justice to it and create connect that why first half seems boring at least in Hindi. Action is there in 1st half as well but its some thing once might want to skip but in 2nd Half you don't want to miss it.
Overall its a good blend of Indian mythology with Starwars+Scifi post apocalyptic movie.
What totally went over my head : Prabhas transition from Kal Bhairava to Karna.

Over build up in Ist half
The director was definitely inspired by Indian epic stories and rich historical texts. But at the same side He was also influenced by Hollywood movies specifically 2021 released DUNE , the theme of future AD and many more like Deepika's pregnancy, the ship warhead like palace have been copied from it. Now as the IInd installment of DUNE has already been released, we will expect the war sequences in upcoming KAKLI part two.
I'm not criticizing the INDIAN movies but if you have such a stron storyline and good starcast then why you need cheeky methods just to attract masses . I wish the director had maintained the seriousness of the subject that would have created an impact after the movie.
