Mohan Raja's commercial outing for Megastar Chiranjeevi aided by Megastar Salman Khan is a thorough entertainer. The political drama tweaked to appeal to Telugu audience has commendable writing to suit Megastar's persona. Brahma played by Chiranjeevi, is the protector of PKR's political party as well as family. After the death of the CM, his son-in-law Jaidev becomes the prime contender for the CM post overtaking the Home Minister (Murali Sharma). The only one standing tall stopping him is Brahma. Utilizing the family feud between Brahma & Satya Priya (Nayanthara), daughter of PKR along with the corrupt party members, more hurdles is thrown at Brahma. How he overcomes all the hurdles and protects both the family as well as political party is rest of the story.

The first half is neat with enough clapworthy scenes and the best thing about them is how subtly these scenes are executed. After establishing the backstory to Brahma and PKR, the story focuses on the clash between Jaidev and Brahma. The character of Jaidev doesn't have much surprises as it is painted grey from the word go but Satyadev brought this character alive. The pace is good and with a pre-interval superbly execute scene followed by entry of another Megastar, it ends on a high note.

The second half however takes the easy route and resorts to crowd pleasing tactics. With not much twists and turns, the pace does feel hampered a bit but the timely re-entry of Masoom Bhai (Salman Khan) clarifies on the tone of rest of the film. From hereon, it is just fan frenzy stuff. Chiru gets another action scene early in the second half with the BGM from Bruce Lee being re-used and the amount of whistles I got to hear in my audi, there wasn't much to complain.

Among the performances, Chiranjeevi succeeds in delivering a restrained performance with him taking the backseat in much of the action (barring the 2 solo action scenes), the veteran aces the emotional scenes with Nayanthara. Satyadev excels as the baddie though the characterization could've had more fizz. Nayanthara does well within the scope of her character. Salman Khan adds on to the megastardom and all of his scenes are designed to please the fans only. The Chiru - Salman scenes are indeed paisa vasool and Salman getting to mouth Telugu line was icing on the cake.

I would have rated this higher if the third act didn't resort to solely rely on Salman Khan - Chiranjeevi scenes to take the story to it's climax. If one ignores this then Godfather is indeed a fun watch.

Listen I agree without doubt that it's a great movie but it's a remake do you know. Currently south industry will make anything we will watch because we have a mentality that Bollywood is always making a remake. I accept that Bollywood has let us really down but i don't think that the praise this movie is getting is correct.it is over praised. WE SHOUL ALSO SEE THAT THE MOVIE HAS DONE GREAT JOB IN INCREASING MORE MASALA. THAT IS GOOD THE ACTING IS AWESOME. CAST FIT THIER ROLE. BUT I THINK THE MOVIE NEEDS TO WATCH TWO TIMES TO UNDERSTAND EVERY PINT CLEARLY. That's why I give 3 star but audience pls judge everyone equally.

I was thinking not to compare anything with the original movie but i have to...

All who have watched LUCIFER will feel bit low, not exciting while watching the same scenes. If the Movie have come after 6-7 years or a decade then maybe it'll be exciting to watch.

But Performance of Megastar is lovable.

And Because of the BGM the Scenes are enjoyable.

All Characters did best.

I've watched LUCIFER before and the time I was watching GODFATHER, it was getting predictive.

Ya Just Because I forget some twist of the movie I enjoyed the movie.

I Can Say LUCIFER was Far Better But this is Enjoyable, well Directed movie too. Why I am Saying LUCIFER is far better just cause Makers missed the Essence of the a movie and put more Effort on making it too massy.

Political Scenes are Good but Mohanlal's Way of Doing Acting has Something Different.

I loved Megastar Chiranjeevi Work. Well nicely Performed.

Nicely written and Presented.

Salman Khan's is Massy.

Don't expect much just watch you'll enjoy.

It's A worth Watch Entertainer.
