Story:
After a decent movie
like Samanyudu, this amateurish attempt at a movieabout
land mafia comes as a real downer. Victory has perhaps
two goodmoments, and the rest of the movie has to be
tolerated than enjoyed orappreciated. Director Ravi
C. Kumar's last attempt is so much morelow-key, but
in terms of story, content, focus, screenplay andperformances
it was a hundred fold better. Victory has Nitin showingoff
his six pack abs. And little else.
Plot:
Viji is living his
life when his family and a thousand other familiesare
affected by a land grabbing that takes place. The culprit
is MLADevaraj and it's a huge scam-but the problem is
that he is getting awaywith it. Determined not to let
that happen, Viji wants everyone tounite against this
anti-social element. People are too scared, but Vijiand
his gang are made to take action. The rest of the story
is abouthow they bring the bad guy to justice.
Technical Departments:
Story, Screenplay
and Direction :The story has nothing new tooffer.
Land Mafia, MLAs, Ring Road, International Airports
and a bunchof guys fighting out the system. Charmante.
The performances are soamateurish that one wonders whether
there was a prompter right there,giving cues to each
character throughout the movie. The music is notgood
either. The scene composition, screenplay and editing
are all donehalf-heartedly.
Mamta'strack starts off like this: she places an ad
in a matrimonial site andViji's parents place his. The
girl and the guy's parents are incorrespondence. But
Viji doesn't know of it, and this girl follows himaround
and then tries to make him say that he loves her. Then
for along time you don't see the girl, and suddenly
she appears again.There's really no logical ending for
the love track. One wonders whatthe point of the matrimonial
site was-maybe a sponsor? There's a songfull of them,
from Idea to RS Brothers, whether used for the effect
oras sponsors, one cannot be too sure.
The first half has nothingmuch happening. Some land
mafia fights, this half-baked love track,Sindhu Tolani's
(who plays a news reporter) friendship with Nitin andgang
and stray characters and tracks (MS Narayana and Brahmanandam)
whohave little to do with the main plot. The second
half you keep hopingwill pick up and not till the last
20 minutes does something reallyhappen. And nothing
we haven't seen before sadly. At least if it wasdone
well..but the taking is so amateurish that it's surprising
(if youknow that the director has experience and his
last flick was verywatchable).
Performances: Nitin really needs to
slow down on his dialogue delivery. His six packsare
in place, and he has even worked on his dance. But he
was muchbetter as an actor in his earlier movies, and
somehow seems to beneglecting this main aspect with
each successive movie. MamtaMohandas's role itself is
badly written, in bits and pieces. She is anable singer,
but as a female lead, she needs to hone those skills.Shashank
as a shop owner and Duvvasi Mohan with his witty Telanganapunches
are okay; suddenly their group of 4 becomes 5 post-break
andthe new member is given no introduction whatsoever.
Tanikella Bharaniand the rest of seasoned performers
are not as effortless in theirperformance as usual-they
seem artificial, and the direction departmenthas to
take the discredit mainly.
Music and Dance:
Copied mostly, including a part of the background score
(Don). Lackluster in totality.
Last Word:A
disappointment. |
