Movie: Bruce Lee - The Fighter Rating: 2.0/5 Banner: DVV Entertainments Cast: Ram Charan, Chiranjeevi, Rakul Preet Singh, Kriti Kharbanda, Rao Ramesh, Mukesh Rish, Sampath Raj, Nadiya and others Screenplay: Kona Venkat, Gopimohan Music: Thaman Cinematography: Manoj Paramahamsa Presented by: D Parvathi Producer: D V V Danayya Main Story, screenplay, and directed by: Sreenu Vaitla Release Date: October 16, 2015 Artistes’ Performances: Chiranjeevi is back on screen after a long gap and he puts in a guest role. Well, it is indeed a pleasure to watch the megastar and even the multi-plex audiences whistle when he is introduced. However, one cannot help to notice that the megastar has indeed aged and put on some extra kilos. Highlights: Ram Charan's terrific dances Songs Drawbacks: Lack of entertainment Hurried second half Predictable story Narration lacks fizz Total failure of Brahmi and comedy gang Analysis: In all his interviews, director Sreenu Vaitla claimed that he learnt from his past mistakes and that he has made a story driven movie with Bruce Lee. The movie proves all the talk is just publicity as he hasn’t changed his style much though there is less comedy. Indeed, lack of entertainment is a sore point of this movie. Once again, he has selected a flimsy and predictable story. But he made the first half in decent way. The story is as old as the movie industry. The director makes it appear as if preparing for IAS exams is trying to achieve something unattainable. Charan standing in front of the house of chief secretary through day and night to impress him so that he can get his sister admitted is serious laughable stuff. This makes you feel that it is straight out of '70s. An IB Chief using the services of a stuntman is totally unbelievable. Post interval bang, Sreenu Vaitla brings his formula of comedy situations into the screenplay but his comedy has fallen flat this time. Probably this is his least entertaining movie. Contribution from Kona Venkat and Gopimohan hasn't added much to the film. There is a dialogue in the movie, "Content lekunte... climax lo edo okati hadavudi chesi chuttesinattu." This aptly suits the film. Especially in the second half it is apparent that the director has just done some hungama to cover up the lack of a proper story. On the flip side, Sreenu Vaitla really shows that he can go one step further from Aagadu. |
