Old, old wine in new bottle

mrgprxtn

Run of the mill, formula, masala movie. over-the-top dialogues, over-the-top action, over-the-top sentiment. old wine in new bottle. "eppud choosina ide... konjan kooda bore kottada?!" is a so-called "punch" dialogue. but the only dialogue that the spectator wants to repeat to Mahesh Babu's face.

Positives -- like I said, new bottle. as in fairly fresh camera work, fairly good color mixing, reasonable screenplay and overall rich.

Negatives - hackneyed dialogues, wafer thin story line, average to below average acting, beaten to death tropes.

Strictly for Mahesh Babu fans. Don't waste your time or money on this movie. If people stopped encouraging movies like these, our Tollywood might be forced to come with fresh, innovative scripts like Sandalwood is coming up with these days.

score 2/10
