Pataas 2015 telugu movie review

Pataas 2015 telugu movie review


Pataas is a Paisa Vasool Entertainer. It is stuffed with all sorts of commercial elements like Comedy, Punch dialogues, hero elevation in the right proportions. Finally Kalyan Ram gets the much required success. 

Kalyan (Kalyan Ram) is a corrupt police officer who aides criminals at the start and later one incident forces him to mend his ways and his entire journey is narrated with high dose of entertainment.

Kalyan Ram delivered a far better performance in the movie. He tried his level to mask up his usual weaknesses like dialogue delivery etc. Rest of the weaknesses are successfully covered up the high dose of entertainment present in the film. Debutant Shruti Sodhi becomes a liability for the film. She does not have much significance in the film and has to come a long way in acting and emotions.

Sai Kumar and Ashutosh Rana are good. Srinivas Reddy managed good laughs. MS Narayana's spoof work did not work out. Jayaprakash Reddy is good in his limited role. Jhansi, Sameer, Shakalaka Shankar etc are okay while Posani is decent.

Telugu film industry has found one more good commercial director. Anil Ravipudi makes a very good debut. He made a film very entertaining with good dialogues, good hero elevation and racy screenplay. There is a little bit of drag in the film which is also successfully masked. Both the interval bang and climax are handled as an experienced director.

Sai Karthik delivered an average album with the remix of Arey O Samba working big time. BGM is good. Camera work is neat while editing is okay.

Finally, Pataas is a Paisa Vasool Entertainer. It is stuffed with all sorts of commercial elements like Comedy, Punch dialogues, hero elevation in the right proportions. Finally Kalyan Ram gets the much required success.

Beeruva 2015 telugu new movie review

Beeruva 2015 telugu new movie review

The title which was used to create curiosity on the film has done enough damage. The director could not do justice to the curiosity created and delivered a stale product. First half is okay and second half tests your patience to the maximum. Our readers can avoid it safely!

Sanju (Sundeep Kishan) is the only son of Multimillionaire Suryanarayana (Naresh). Normally Sanju always brings headaches to his rich dad. Sanju always have the habit of hiding in a Beeruva whenever his dad scolds him. Slowly Beeruva becomes his best friend. Once Sanju grows up he falls for Swathi (Surabhi), daughter of a powerful politician, Adikesavula Naidu (Mukesh Rishi). At the same time, Sanju's father's business runs in to a problem which needed Adikesavula Naidu. So Sanju has to conquer Adikesavula Naidu to save his love and business. What happens next is the rest.

 Sundeep LG Kishan's role is almost like an extension of his role in Venkatadri Express and he walked through it effortlessly. However his body language and expressions will get monotony at times. Surabhi is an average beauty and she performed decently in the little role offered to her. Senior Naresh is very good in father's role but Anita Chowdary is wasted in Sundeep Kishan's mother role. She looked more like his sister. Mukesh Rishi is at his usual self. Ajay, Chalapathi Rao and others are good as well.

The makers have created some curiosity by keeping a different title like Beeruva. But all that the director Kanmani did was to weave the story with the scene he got one by one. Most of the scene you feel bored and routine. Few dialogues penned by Veligonda Srinivas worked here and there. Thaman has come up with one ineffective album. Chota K.Naidu's cinematography is great. Production values are good. Editing should have been more effective.

The title which was used to create curiosity on the film has done enough damage. The director could not do justice to the curiosity created and delivered a stale product. First half is okay and second half tests your patience to the maximum. Our readers can avoid it safely!



Baby 2015 hindi new movie review

 Baby hindi  movie review


Neeraj Pandey's 'A Wednesday!' came out in 2008, a low-budget, hardly publicized film that went on to achieve cult status in Hindi cinema. It was a slick, stylish yet tightly woven film that remains India's best take on terrorism even after 7 years of its release.

Pandey followed it up 5 years later with "Special 26", a bigger budgeted, well publicized film that was disappointing in just about every department. The film always assumed itself to be much smarter than it actually was, which was exactly the opposite of Pandey's first film. I've always maintained that budgets spoil directors, and they end up making mistakes because they have a lot more money to play with than they really need.

 This week's release "Baby" marks a return to form for the talented writer/director, who returns to his wheelhouse with a film on counter-terrorism. The plot focuses on Special Ops officer Ajay Singh Rajput, who leads a top secret team of operatives called Baby.

The film opens in Turkey, where Ajay is able to track down a defector and obtain information that is instrumental in foiling a terrorist attack in the heart of the Indian capital. This marks the beginning of his mission to take down the terrorist cell that is determined to strike fear in the hearts of Indian citizens.

The film doesn't manage to get off to the most brilliant start, especially with the sequences in Turkey. There is very little attention to detail, with the posture, stance and even handling of guns during the action scenes, and the tactics and mode of operation by no means belong to a highly trained Special Ops officer. To add to that, there is hardly a sense of intensity or urgency about the circumstances that the characters find themselves in. The film is also strongly reminiscent of Ridley Scott's espionage thriller Body of Lies in terms of style and setting during these portions.

The interval also works against the film. You can understand Pandey wanting to build the momentum slowly, setting up the plot nicely to take off once the dominos start falling. Without any stoppages, the film could've carried on doing just that, with the audience being none the wiser. But with a clearly demarcated interval point, you realize that the first half of the film has gone by without much happening, without any excitement or any fresh, out-of-the-box ideas.

Things start to get interesting when the action moves to Nepal in the second half, leading to the capture of Sushant Singh's character. The subsequent covert operation in Saudi is when the film manages to fully take off, building up tension and momentum, and raising the stakes of the situation at hand. In the final hour or so, the film is highly "inspired" by Ben Affleck's Argo, with the main focus shifting to getting out of the country alive.

Despite any shortfall in pacing or attention to detail, one thing that I would be remiss to not praise is the film's affinity for creating dramatic moments. Never mind the originality of the last half hour, the film still has to make the source material its own, which it manages to do rather well. That achievement is, however, carefully counterbalanced with the rote, by-the-numbers dialogues that include more than its fare share of cliche patriotic speeches. Words like covert, secret, honeytrap are thrown around every once in a while to made sure you realize that it's a film about counter-terrorism and espionage.

One department where the film misses the mark is character development. All the other characters revolve around Akshay Kumar's Ajay, with popular actors like Kay Kay Menon and Sushant Singh brought in for just a scene or two at most. Anupam Kher and Rana Dagubatti come into play only during the last hour of the film, although Anupam Kher is pretty effective even in a small role, bringing in comic relief. The only other actor apart from Akshay who gets any substantial importance is Danny Denzongpa, who plays Akshay's commanding officer, but is actually an agreeable sort of chap who tends to let Akshay decide the plan of action than make any decisions himself.

With such a strong emphasis on Akshay Kumar, a performance on the level of the one he gave in Special 26 would've sunk the film without a trace. Thankfully, Akshay rises to the challenge and gives a surprisingly restrained performance, and even manages to keep the humor subtle, something which is not his strong suit. He is literally present in every single scene of the film, and while his performance may not be one that you'll remember for a long time to come, it's one that might gain him some respect and credibility in the eyes of the audience.

Going the way of a globe-trotting espionage thriller could've gone horribly wrong, the way the extremely talented Sriram Raghavan messed up with Agent Vinod (budgets spoil directors). But Neeraj Pandey manages to keep his ambition in check, both as a writer and as a director. He tries to keep things simple plot-wise, sometimes even too simple. But it's better to have stayed grounded than imploding trying to soar skywards. He keeps the action contained to the soldiers on the ground, rather than trying to make use of technology and advanced gadgetry a la James Bond.

Pandey manages to run a tight ship and molds a reasonably smart film within the realms of commercial cinema. In the final tally, the film manages to tick more boxes than it crosses out, putting it firmly in the win column for both star Akshay Kumar and director Neeraj Pandey. Baby is by far the best Hindi film to have come out this year, although considering the competition and today's date, that might not be much of an achievement.

Dolly Ki Doli 2015 Hindi Movie Review

Dolly Ki Doli 2015 Hindi Movie Review



Dolly Ki Doli isn't great but isn't all the bad either. The story works mostly for the social satire that it is on the nation's obssession - Marriage. Should you watch the film? Yes, for the idea and some entertaining performances.         
           
Sonam Kapoor and Fashion go hand in glove, but acting? Not so much. Guess that's just why the actress is going all out to prove her acting mettle and after Khoobsurat is back on celluloid with yet another quirky film Dolly Ki Doli. Wanna know if it's worth your time and Money? We tell you.

Con man is so passe, it's Con women ruling the roost in Bollywood stories and after Dawaat-e-Ishq where Parineeti Chopra's character was conning men as a possible bride, Sonam Kapoor in Dolly In Doli is duping men after marrying them. The initial song of the film has Dolly going about her ways, wooing them, making them want to marry her and then rob them in turn. Sadly, the movie reveals itself within the 3 odd minuter song but the twist happens when she stumbles upon two grooms Sonu (Rajkumar Rao) and Manjot (Varun Sharma) who go straight to the Cops to bust this
bridezilla. Robin Singh (Pulkit Samrat) is given the task to nab this conning bride. Does he eventually do what he is expected to or in turn lead way to a love track? Well, we can't tell you THAT (sic).


First time director Abhishek Dogra's Dolly Ki Doli is quite refreshing and quirky as a story but sadly, the movie thrives on a short thread that runs out half way through the film and what follows is a drab tale which is nothing but conventional. While the first half is sassy and fun the second is boring and hackeyed.

Moreover, Sonam Kapoor does little to add to the sprightly character that Dolly's is. The so called actress seems to be on a try try till you succeed mode when it comes to her performance. Unfortunately, that earth-shattering moment is yet to be witnessed in Bollywood and that's why Dolly takes the hit of bad acting.

The three male actors Rajkummar Rao, Pulkit Samrat and Varun Sharma however, pull off a great feat and are brilliant in their portions. They also make the film funny and riotous in some parts.

Overall, Dolly Ki Doli isn't great but isn't all the bad either. The story works mostly for the social satire that it is on the national obssession - Marriage. Should you watch the film? Yes, for the idea and some entertaining performances.

(2.5 / 5)  : Above Average
