NTR Mahanayakudu Review

The film tells the story of NT Rama Rao coming to power, becoming a victim of a coup, and how he wrested power from his enemies....

Lovers Day Review

The story takes its sweet time to reach an inflection point. By then, the audience comes to the conclusion that this is a kosher Mollywood film that plays by its own rules....

Dev Review

Director Rajath Ravishankar narrates the second half thinking that he can be a Gautham Menon. Conversations and jaded conversations dot the eventless story-telling....

Amavasya Review

Director Bhushan Patel's idea of scaring the audience is so outlandish that it throws up things like a peculiar sound here, a wicked doll there....

Yatra Review

'Yatra' could have gone beyond those stock scenes and familiar moments. A one-sided film, it lacks nuance. Mammootty's fabulous performance is the saving grace....

Mr. Majnu Review

When your hero is flawed, Telugu film writers use clever tricks from the mediocre playbook to make him appear enormously lovable, monumentally acceptable, super cute, a great guy next door and more....

F2 Review

'F2' has a superb first half that will have you laughing throughout. The second half too is entertaining but some flaws and cliches rob it of unalloyed zing. A thoroughgoing family entertainer for...

Petta Review

Director Karthik Subbaraj makes the movie to demonstrate the process of Rajini-ization. Rajini is known for many things but he can also pull off peculiar tasks that border on the bizarre....

Vinaya Vidheya Rama Review

There was a time when our heroes used to be satisfied with daring MLAs and Ministers. Slowly, their antagonists started to be CM aspirants and even CMs. Boyapati goes a step ahead in this film....

NTR Kathanayakudu Review

Director Krish's narration, at times, reminds the audience of the kind of juxtaposition between the reel life and real life of the personality we have seen in 'Mahanati'....

KGF Review

The narration does seem confusing after a point. Too many characters are introduced and they are sketchy. The oversized focus on heroism takes the zing out of the proceedings....

Padi Padi Leche Manasu Review

While the canvas is ambitious, the writing is much ado about nothing. The story-telling abilities of the director are tested in the second half and he struggles to make the cut....

Antariksham Review

Don't expect nail-biting scenes in the last 30 minutes, as these portions are full of wild cinematic liberties. Awesome technical output and able performances are a big plus, so also the dialogues....

Husharu Review

In telling the story of four loyal friends, director Sree Harsha Konuganti has resorted to cliches, convenient writing and, at times, low-end humour.  ...

Bhairava Geetha Review

A class war between the oppressed and the oppressor lacks believable writing.  The villains are made to look like self-defeatist souls.  Romance is outrageous....

Subrahmanyapuram Review

A problem with "high-end" supernatural themes is that they don't take much time to lose the fizz in the absence of substantial improvements over other films of the same genre....

Next Enti Review

If you go out for washroom or a smoke in the middle of 'Next Enti', you are likely to miss five pages of dialogue, two pages of monologue, one-and-a-half pages of lyrics, two quintals of confusion....

Kavacham Review

Most of the times when a Telugu cinema actor decides to do a film that decisively portrays him as a mind-blowing action hero, the audience is hardly left with a 'kavacham' (shied)....

2.0 Review

It may sound unpopular but it's a sign of a lack of imagination that '2.0' has no songs save one. To watch a Shankar movie without songs is akin to watching a Chiranjeevi movie without dances....

24 Kisses Review

A pretentious, over-dramatized movie with loads of predictability. The lead pair itch to be over-cute and we can't take their romance after a point. Repetitive scenes and utterly lifeless....
