Analysis:

Coming to Yamudiki Mogudu analysis first half of the movie is very funny from Allari Naresh. Naresh funny one line dialogues are good. The story goes on a slow rhythm untill Master Bharath enters into the movie. Sayaji Shinde as Lord Yama, Krishna Bhagvan as Chitraguptha is good. Raghu Babu and Jyoti have provided wonderful support to this comedy episode. The second half not that much funny and is unoriginal with needless scenes. Allari Naresh where dresses like a woman. There you should much patience to watch. Climax looks very silly. Climax doesn’t have that much emotion.

Performances:

Allari Naresh performance is awesome.  Richa panai performance is good. Master Bharat as Yamadharmaraja's son. He done nice job. Tanikella Bharani is shown as powerful villain. Ramyakrishna did a good job. Naresh acts as Naradha here. His role brings laughs to everyone. Rest of the people also done their job well.

Technicalities:

Director E. Satti Babu trying to put some family sentiments in the film. Directorial skills of E Sattibabu are not up to the mark. Screenplay is slow. Cinematography is really superb. Music & Background score is just average. Graphics also just average. Gautam Raju editing is poor. Dialogues of Kranti Reddy Nakinaala are very funny.

Final Word: Go and Watch, If you are a fan of Allari Naresh. It is just one time watch

Yamudiki Mogudu Review Rating – 2.25/5

Analysis:
Akash direction and action both are not good.Now a day’s many people who enter tollywood after four films they can direct a film. Akash’s inexperience as director can be seen in every frame. This film can be screened for people who aspire to become directors to teach them on how not to make a film. Akash played with movie lovers since he is the director.
Performance:
Aakash, Swetha Basu Prasad, Suman, Nisha, Kota Srinivas Rao, Satyam Rajesh all people performances are average.
Technalities:
Direction is poor. Production values are below average. It’s not looking like a B Grade film. Jaksi John’s cinematography failed to impress movie lovers. Kartik Raja’s music is ok.
Final Word: Go and Watch Movie if you are a fan of Akash. You must watch Akash direction

Thupaki Telugu Movie Review

story:

Vijay and AR Murugadoss’s Thuppaki Movie – Tamil super star vijay as Jagdish in thuppaki. He is a Captain in Indian Army. When a vacation he came to see his family in Mumbai. He is suddenly taken to Nisha's (Kajal's) house to approve, but he doesn't like her. He later falls in love with her after watching her in a boxing ring. After a series of romantic encounters. Jagdish runs behind the terrorist, who is then wounded, hospitalized and escapes. Jagadish planning and execution to walk off with the terrorist who is on his way to plant more bombs in different parts of Mumbai. More than guns and bullets we are treated to a mind game. Blank and without emotion Jagdish takes on the terrorist (Vidyut) and uses very few people to navigate and reach him. What happens next? Find in theatres...

Analysis:

Thuppaki is that he keeps the intelligent in the story going till the last and by the end of the operation in the sea, one wishes the drama continued. Other than that Thuppaki makes for a thrilling drama with the pace in the first part of the film very slow and irritating, the story not moving at all. It is just before the interval it picks momentum and keeps you hooked. The final scene at the station is again a bore. What mainly works for the film is the villain who underplays his role so well. Never loud, bombastic or too emotional, he goes by the flow. The director lets the story take over in the second half. In more than one dialogue he pays tribute to the army and reminds citizens that while they enjoy life, the army spends all their life safeguarding them and the country. Strangely he is a one man army who doesn't seek help while plotting and executing. Mainly, songs come all of sudden in the movie that make people confused. However, songs were okay to listen. Apart from that everything was good about the movie.

Performances:

Vijay was entertaining good. Kajal had no role to play other than showing her skin. So, in terms of glamour’s she was okay. Vidyut, Sathyan and all others have done justice to their roles

Technalities:

The direction of Murgadoss was the main asset of this film. Sangeet Shivan's cinematography was outstanding. Harris Jayaraj's music doesn't impress and editing is far from desirable.

Final Word: Go and Watch if you are fan to Action movies.

Thuppaki Review Rating – 3/5

Youngsters will connect instantly hope it has reached expectations of its targeted audience. The first half of the film will be highly enjoyable for youngsters but it makes uneasy for family audience.

His dad is Muslim and mom is Hindu. Here Suleman is son of Rajeswari(Sita) who married a muslim(Suman), which is not liked by his brother Narsimha Naidu(Prabhu).

Narsimha naidu’s daughter (Hansika) falls in love with Krishna sastry. What happens after that? what is the court case between Suman & Prabhu? You must find in theatres.

Analysis:

Denikaina Ready Director G. Nageswara Reddy(Seema Sasthry, Seema Tapakai Director) is good while the storyline doesn’t offer you any novelty. Denikaina Ready is offering loads of comedy with Brahamanandam, Bharat, MS Narayana, AVS. Screenplay is predictable entertaining and so are the dialogues. Brahmanandamm played the full-fledged comedy role. Brahamanandam role is the major asset for the film. Vishnu Manchu has played safe this time choosing the simple story which is packaged with entertaining screenplay and dialogues. Prabhas voice is used very smartly with the film script. Climax is very predicative and simple.

Performances:

Vishnu improved a lot in terms of comedy. Vishnu has done a decent job in two different characters as Sulaiman and Krishna Sastry. He will impresses everyone with his dancing skills. Hansika is glamorous. Brahmanandam is good in the comedy & confused role. MS Narayana, Dharmavarapu Subramanyam, AVS, Bharath are okay. Prabhu is good in the role of factionist. Suman, Sita, Surekhavani, Pratibha fitted in their roles. Screenplay is also predictable. The Direction is good.

Technalities:

Denikaina Ready is remake of a Malayalam film Udhayapuram Sultan(1999). G Nageswara Reddy Direction is good.Music by Chakri and Yuvan Shankar Raja are good. The songs are well-shot. Screenplay is predictable. Cinematography is good and the entire film looked colorful.Dialogues are catchy.

Final Word: A Good Entertainer from Vishnu, Brahmanandam Combination. You must watch.

Life Is Beautiful Movie Review

Story:

Life Is Beautiful Sekhar Kammula directing this movie under Amigos Creations banner. Mickey J Meyer scored music for this movie. Film starts with Amala convincing her three children, Srinu (Abhijeet), (Rashmi Shastry) & younger daughter Chinni to go for Hyderabad and stay with their grandmother, continuing with their study’s. Srinu comes to Hyderabad to stay at their granny’s home at sun shine valley. Here he makes new friends and starts new life, forming a batch of six friends. Sun shine valley has two phases, one phase has rich people houses named as gold phase and other phase has upper-middle class family houses named as b-block. The rest of the story is formed with what happens in the life of these six youngsters in the time frame of two years. Amala Akkineni, Shriya Saran and Anjala Zaveri playing the important roles in this movie.

Analysis:

Life is Beautiful's First half  is entertaining with right mix of comedy, romance and drama. Sekhar Kammula, who is regarded as one of the sensible directors of Tollywood took lot of pain and has come up with apt casting. Life is Beautiful grabs the attention of the audience through out the first half and the narration attracts. Especially the chemistry between Srinivas-Paddu and Nagaraju-Lakshmi has been etched well. Though the first half is entertaining, Sekhar Kammula made pre interval episode very heavy with adequate melodrama.

Movie Director seems to have lost the tempo in the second half, as the movie is good in parts. When ever there is boring moment, Sekhar Kammula adds some emotion content which makes audience end in tears. In spite of having few entertaining scenes, second half of the movie has been made very heavy with over dosage of mother sentiment. The concept of distinguishing B-Phase colony and Gold Phase colony has been convincing.

Flight scene where Shriya Saran is on her way to Vizag looked artificial. Amala Akkineni has made her comeback into films nearly after 20 years and her performance is excellent in a limited role especially in the climax. However, there is no proper connection among few scenes and some times you feel Life is Beautiful is  very routine one.

Performances:

Amala Akkineni has played a very key role in this film and her performance is highlight of the film. Her screen presence and acting is same as she was 20 years back in her last film ‘Aagraham’.Shriya looked fabulous in this film and singer Sunitha dubbing added more weight to her performances. Anjala Zaveri was used very partly in his film but she makes her mark in the audiences mind. Abhijeet Duddala as srinivas & Shagun Kaur as Paddu looks promising to be future stars. Other lead actors Zara Shah, Sudhakar, Kaushik & Rashmi Shastry looked all right.

Technicalities:

Life Is Beautiful - Sekhar Kammula has taken two years to complete this film, his hard work can be seen in the screen. The colony set created by art director Thotta Tharani looks very natural. Cinematography by Vijay C. Kumar is appreciable. Marthand K. Venkatesh editing could be beter. Music by Micky J Meyer is an asset to the film and songs inked by Anantha Sreeram and Vanamali are treat to listen

Final Word: Go and Watch the film with low expectation and when you have time to spare. First half of the movie is a jolly ride. And the problem is with the never ending second half but it contains some excellent sentimental scenes more particularly towards the climax.

Tuniga Tuniga

Tuniga Tuniga is debut movie of producer turned director M S Raju's son Sumanth Ashwin. As a producer M S Raju gave memorable hits to Mahesh Babu ( Okkadu), Prabhas ( Varsham) and Siddharth ( Nuvvostanante Nenoddantana), so when he launches his son under his direction with this movie, we surely expected modest firework, if not a big bang. But Tuniga Tuniga is a wet cracker that never fails even to catch fire forget the dhamaka.

The film's story (written by M S Raju and assisted by Bhupathi Raja, who is infamous for writing most slapdash scripts) is as old as Himalayas and scenes are taken from several old Hindi movies includingMaine Pyaar Kiya, Barsaat, etc.

Two great pals (Prabhu, Nagababu) stay together. As expected they have kids, one boy (Sumanth) and the other has a girl (Rhea). Both can’t stand each other. Some silly pranks to make you laugh follows. Cut. Girl sent abroad and comes after 12 long years. Love at first sight for the boy. He hides his identity. The girl who is oblivious to this later realizes this but by then is hopelessly in love with the boy. With the identity problem solved, what next? Girl’s family has someone else in mind to be her life partner. Huh! like we have not seen this problem before. Like a breeze our hero solves the problem. The end.

What was novel about this film? Nada (nothing). Other than good cinematography, even the presentation and narration offers nothing new. Sample this dialogue written by Parachuri Brothers: "Ugadi Pachadi Lo Uppu Undadu, Maa Manavadi Lo Tappu Undadu". The film has plenty of such outdated dialogues and scenes. But there are some chota mota things that did catch our fancy like beautiful cinematography (S.Gopal Reddy).

Sumanth Ashwin is a good dancer. He has potential to be a good actor. Rhea reminded us of Genelia. Second heroine (newcomer) lacks total appeal. Karthika Raja's composed title song is pleasing, other than that all songs lack fizz. Nagaabu, Prabu, Sayaji Shinde do justice to their roles. Rest are okey dokey.

M S Raju has not compromised on production values for his son’s debut. But that’s pointless, he should have given equal importance to the story. This middling storyline is definitely not the right launch vehicle for Sumanth Ashwin.

Eega Review – Rajamouli Movie

Story:

Nani (Nani) and Bindu (Samantha) are lovers. Sudeep (Sudeep) a rich brat comes in between them and he kills Nani to get his hands on Bindu. Nani reincarnates as a housefly and avenges his death. He gets help from Samantha and how they execute their plan to kill Sudeep is what Eega is about.

Analysis:
Rajamouli told the story of Eega on the day of launch and people had expectations over how this film is going to be. Rajamouli exceeded all those expectations with his wonderful visual sense and executing his idea to the perfection.

Eega is an event. It can’t be put into words. It should be experienced to know the greatness of it. There are some mind blowing thrills and sequences that will sweep you off your feet. Housefly’s birth and the scenes that follow will arrest you with the detailing and wonderful research done.

First half breezes off with good romantic episodes and Sudeep’s powerful performance. Second half is dominated by housefly scenes. There are many clap worthy scenes in the film. One would can’t help but fall in love with Rajamouli’s visualization and his terrific narration. As the film has not much story the pace tends to fall a bit at times, but there are ample scenes to make it up for it.

Performances: 

Nani was good in his limited role. Sudeep was terrific as the bad guy. His stellar performance was one of the major plus points of the film. His screen presence will make you feel that there is no better option than him for this role. Samantha was a treat to watch. She has given a convincing performance. All others didn’t have much role to play, but everyone did fine in their respective roles. Watch out for Tagubothu Ramesh’s cameo!

Technicalities:

Dialogues were apt. Cinematography was excellent. Editing was up to the mark. Music by Keeravani is the major asset for this film. His background score stands out as one of his best works ever. There are few good melody songs too. CGI work was superb. Visual Effects will definitely rank among the best on Indian screen. Eega’s movements, dances and everything were done to the best possible levels. There was lot of time and hard work put into the film and the results are seen.

Eega is a technically well made film. Production values were top notch. Rajamouli has done a terrific job. His ideas and execution were superb in the film. There were many scenes where one would admire Rajamouli. He is undoubtedly the best director in Tollywood now.

Final Word:

Eega is one of the best films in recent times. It will be liked by kids. If you keep the logics aside, the movie will entertain you to the core. One of the rare films that has to be seen on big screen only. Go watch it!

Eega Movie Rating: 3.5/5

Mem Vayasuku Vacham Movie Review

Mem Vayasuku Vacham is a perfect title for a story that deals with the college-going youth. There is no tension or excitement in the story but you just hang on till the film is over despite it being too predictable.

Why? Firstly, the casting of the heroine Neethi Taylor is bang on. She is cute, like a doll and also delivers the demands of the character. Love stories, we mean not the senior or matured ones always draw a crowd to the theatre, here there is a fulfillment in the form of a few dialogues which the young men associate themselves with.

Tanish, though he gives a jolt in the initial 15 minutes with his stubble, bespectacled and obese look later takes your focus towards some neat work, the last couple of minutes when he as Lucky, falls down helplessly and heart broken as his friend tells him there's no point visiting Dil (Neethi), is really competent. The restraint that Neethi shows adds to the character development and there is a third character in the prelude and in the last moments that completes the circle.

There is some Ye Maaya Chesave and some moments of Bombay and a regular joi de vivre love story and the movie is done. Lucky's girlfriend is breaking up with him as she sees Neethi's photo in his wallet and he clears the cobwebs, narrates his past. He falls in love with Dil, though not at first sight but she has priorities clear. The conservative Muslim girl announces her engagement and her decision to quit college in three days on the eve of the college function where she and Lucky are supposed to be part of a programme.

Three days is enough for the hero to slowly sow the seeds of love and even prompt her to elope with him. Mem Vayasuku Vacham, the title sums up the the story hereafter. It is about the young couple coming of age, taking a matured decision. The eloped couple go to a registrar office and the girl backtracks thinking about her family. Her fickle-minded attitude puts him in a quandary and she convinces him that she will talk about him to her father and as usual in the last minute gives him a royal ditch.

This is what works here for the crowd. The lines that Lucky speaks is about the heartless, selfish and fickle nature of girls and how they move in life without any regret. The director also shows how the heroine lacks the courage when it comes to hurting the family, how she is engulfed by a whirlpool of emotions when she realises she is in love but continues to be in a state of denial.

Another aspect that strengthens the mood of the film is the genuine, authentic backdrop of the old city and the characters. The costumes that Rama Prabha wears makes her look like a real Muslim. The Vellipove number comes after the final break and that is quite unnecessary and seems to just lengthen and drag the story, otherwise good music, cinematography makes the film an okay watch.

Mem Vayasuku Vacham is a decent film for Tanish after Ride despite it not being a fresh story. Everything fell in place and moves along without too many loopholes. The film has many cliches but it is not pretentious. Singdha fits into her character well and is adorable.

There is one amusing scene, a college student wears a damp shirt with floral prints; When asked why he sprinkled water on it he says, "To keep the flowers from withering away."

Sakuni

Synopsis:

Kamal Krishna (Karthi) is a soft guy based in Samarlakota. He strives hard to continue the charity work started by his parents. His ancestral house which is coming in the way of a Railway project will be ceased by the Government. He comes to Hyderabad to give a petition to the Chief Minister Bhoopathi (Prakash Raj) to save his house. He later comes to know it is actually the Chief Minister who is behind the project. Humiliated Kamal revolts against the CM and grows in politics by leaps and bounds. And the rise of Kamal in politics forms the actual story.

Performances:

Karthi is at his best in the character of Kamal. He gave his best for it but the director failed to use him completely as an actor. His attempt to dub his own voice is commendable. He had put in decent efforts in dancing and fights. His costumes are neat and styling suited to that of a political leader. He has good histrionics and face value which appeal for Telugu audience even though he is a Tamilian and it will do good in the long run in AP.

Pranitha played the character of Sri Devi who is Kamal’s mardalu in the movie. She has very limited screen presence and is okay in them. Radhika, Roja, Prakash Raj, Kota Srinivasa Rao are good in the limited roles they are offered. Santhanam’s comedy track is good and had almost equal screen presence to hero in the first half.

Technical Performance:

Director Shankar Dayal is the black sheep. He let the movie down with awful screenplay and bad narration. The entire first half of the movie is wasted with out going in to the story. He did not take care to add enough ‘build up’ to the hero character which is very much needed in the political dramas. Cinematography by Muthaiah is good. Sreekar Prasad’s editing should have been better in the first half. GV Prakash’s songs are good. All of them are well picturised. And the back ground score is a total let down.

Final Say:

The first half of the movie is bad and second half could have been better. It has to be very gripping in a political drama from the start to end but the director failed to maintain the tempo of the movie. However, AP audience can connect themselves to the second half as there are several scenes relating to current political scenario like Sympathy factor, Vote for Money, Corruption, Lack of people’s confidence on opposition etc. The movie is not great and not bad either. Its a one time watch!

Oka Romantic Crime Katha - A crime story with a message

P Sunil Kumar Reddy is not the one who makes films without a social message. If Sontha Vooru and Gangaputrulu mirrored the 'sell-out' of the village land (SEZs) and the exploitation of the coast, respectively, Oka Romantic Crime Katha has a message too.

The film is a take on the issues like teen love, teen sex and abortions, which have become commonplace in the modern society. Says the director, "Owing to various social factors and technological advancement today's youngsters are undergoing many psychological stresses. Boundaries are fast blurring. Set against this backdrop, ORCK tells the stories of a tenth standard, an intermediate and a degree girl." Although the problems have been dealt with in his serious style, the film is high on entertainment quotient.

The film features Manoj Nandam, Sai Anil, Gayathri, Divya Swapna, Bobby and others. It has cinematography by Sabu James. Music is by Praveen Immadi. Sunil has written the story and screenplay.

Produced by Yekkali Ravindrababu, 

Endukante Premanta Review – Ram Movie

   Ram (Ram) and Sravanthi (Tamanna) meets in Paris in an unusual situation. They turn friends and both their destiny is the same. They need money and passports to get away from there. Sravanthi helps Ram to reach India from Paris and she too finds a way to come there. However, Ram comes to know that there is something he doesn’t know about Sravanthi. This will set a goal for him in life.

Analysis:

Endukante Premanta is a complicated storyline which deals with illogical elements. In a way it is a romantic fantasy. Director failed to get the perfect balance between fantasy and reality. The film is illogical throughout. Despite offering few entertaining scenes here and there the film falls short of entertainment.

Director didn’t do much homework on the script and it is evident in each and every scene. None of the scenes touches you. Love story is half baked. The chemistry between the lead pair is absolutely absent. May be the storyline doesn’t demand intimacy between the lead pair, but that doesn’t mean love should be non-existent.

Endukante Premanta is inspired from the film Just Like Heaven. Director failed to adopt it to our style. Due to lack of proper work on the script it falls flat. On a whole Endukante Premanta is a badly done film with half baked story.

Performances: 

Ram was energetic. He did his best to the role. His performance was lovable and his presence was adorable. He has put in extra efforts in the dances to enthrall his fans. Tamanna did well as the damsel in distress. She was gorgeous in close ups. Rishi was just Okay as the villain. Sayaji Shinde was nice. Brahmanandam provides few laughs. Anu Hassan was decent. Kona Venkat didn’t make his presence felt. Krishna Bhagavan was alright. Rest of the cast did a fair job.

Technicalities:

Prakash Kumar’s music was a letdown. Much needed Melody was completely missing. Background score was not up to the mark. Editing could have been better. Cinematography was an asset. Andrew’s camera work stands out. Dialogues were neat.

Karunakaran, who is known for making feel good romantic entertainers, faltered this time. Story and screenplay were the weak links. The director in him could have lifted the spirits but somehow brand Karunakaran was absent in this film.

Final Word:

Endukante Premanta lacks the soul and feel that are much needed for this type of films. Except for few funny sequences, the film offers nothing to any section of audience. The concept too isn’t universally acceptable.
