Guntur Kaaram (2024)

How to waste 200 crore rupees?

[2/10 · 12 January 2024]

Again and again, we are still in the same loop of making movies for the sake of the popularity of an actor, regardless of a decent scenario and a decent acting from other actors. However, we can witness a very good performance from Mahesh Babu, matching my expectations. But the rest of the cast looks like they wanted to be cast in a jukebox musical like Mamma Mia!, especially Sreeleela, who has definitely high skills when it comes to dancing but is less-skilled when it comes to acting. But hey, I guess she's only 23 so there's still time to improve so don't give up! I guess also Meenakshi forgot her text. Comedy pieces didn't worked at all. Prakash Raj is still a masterpiece but he should choose movies he wants to star in more wisely, like you're starring in 15 movies a year... But the true problem is not the acting. In fact, it's definitely the screenplay. 160 minutes only to open opened doors? Really? I have the feeling that the same movie is shown to us every year for decades. Nothing original here. Songs and BGMs don't even fit the movie at all. Do people really like that kind of content? Or is it, again, only for the sake of their favorite actor? Sad to admit it, but it was overall a true deception.

Liger (2022)

The only horrific non-horror movie

[1/10 · 28 August 2023]

How to start? It appears that making Telugu-Hindi mixed movies rarely met success (Saaho, Radhe Shyam) and there's an explanation about that : the lack of a story. Again, unfortunately, everything is made here to make money. We never met passion of movies in this 'I dont know if I have to call that a movie' episode. Vijay Deverakonda completely fails in his acting because of his... stammering? People don't stammer like that! The love relationship is not conviencing at all. All scenes were really cringe but credits goes to the final scene with Mike Tyson (yes...) kidnapping Anaya Panday. That's the most unrealistic thing I've ever encountered in my life. So Mike Tyson (or Mike Anderson in this movie) kidnapped her to have Vijay Deverakonda fighting with him in order to win her as if she is a cashprize. Downgrading a woman that way is pure misogyny. There's women's rights now in case you forgot about that. Anya Panday's acting is unbearable (as always but here that's the farthest she did). Also all characters are completely forgettable. They better should stop acting. The movie is a parody of Pawan Kalyan's Johnny. Songs and BGM are useless. Video songs are filmed like an horror movie. When I saw all the promo for that movie, I just felt like the movie was made only for Bollywood gossip magazines, like a lot of Bollywood movies recently. Anya must put an end to her career because gossips and Instagram fit better to her than cinema.

Bholaa Shankar (2023)

Where is the remake of Vedalam ?

[1/10 · 13 August 2023]

Making cringe movies, especially cringe remakes, won't help you to regain popularity. As a matter of fact, everyone is calling you a cringe star. But I still don't know who's the most cringe... Of course we have Chiranjeevi still acting like he is in 1990. I think he's still stuck in some era like Marty McFly in Back to the Future. But we have other contestants for the Most Cringe Trophy. Keerthi Suresh must stop acting, if we call that acting, her voice is very irritating. Tamanna also very disappointing acting like a little child stuck in an attorney body. She is a parody of Shruti Hassan's character in Vedalam. The three villains are completely forgettable. But that's nothing compared to the director who decided to make the worst movie ever to witness the limits of patience of people. He didn't even understood Vedalam and decided to remake that movie but with all the cringe Telugu actors. But before the release of this... thing, director said Vedalam is very cringe. Yep, if Vedalam is so cringe, I don't know how cringe is Bhola Shankar. He literally scored an own goal, thus making the wonderful performance of shocking both movie-goers and football fans. My patience was broken at the fifth minute. After that, every comedy scene or action scene was unbearable to me. The court scene was horrible. There is nothing about Vedalam in this movie. Where is our true OG Ganesh ? Where are the charismatic villains ? Where are the thrilling songs and BGM ? Chiranjeevi must put an end to his acting career right now. Wigs don't suit you, man. Acting neither. Is he that bad in politics ? Tamanna and Keerthi must very urgently search something else to do, because acting is not for them. If I wanted two plants, I would go straight to the plant shop. Still they're acting for years so I think they have enormous salaries. That may explain why they didn't care about making good movies. We are talking about the same movie industry which, thankfully, gave us RRR, so that's very contrasting. Director also must put an end to his career... selling mangoes seems to be the right deal. The true MVP of this movie is Brahmandam. Shouldn't be compared with Vedalam ever.

Beast (II) (2022)

Neil deGrasse Tyson's worst enemy

[2/10 · 5 August 2023]

If you want people around the world to stop mocking your videos and making memes with that, the moviemakers should stop making dumb, nonsense movies. My YouTube fellas know exactly which movie I am thinking about. Here, this senseless 161-minutes failed attempt-of-a-movie was heavily mocked on Twitter. Of course it was mocked in India because of the comparison with rival movie Valimai with Ajith Kumar. But also with two of the greatest success India has ever encountered : RRR and K. G. F. Chapter 2. But it was also heavily mocked in the United States, France and Belgium. And do you know why all that backlash ? Because of the scene where our national Thalapathy takes on a fighter aircraft and decides all of a sudden and you won't even believe me when I tell you he puts off his air mask while being in high altitude. Of course our very own Thalapathy has the right to ignore all the physical laws known since the 17th century. Robert J. Oppenheimer would have returned from his grave only to come back if he would have seen this complete nonsense. Plato was the first one who described the effects of altitude on human people. Hope he won't have to see that either.

Surprisingly, this movie started really good with that balloon scene. It just fell down at the 'Halamathi Habibo'. They wanted to do a Irumbu Thirai or En Peyar Surya, En Veedu India look-a-like, but they even failed that. I don't recognize any once of a Vishal or an Allu Arjun. Vijay went to a mall, but the mall is hijacked and there we have an unofficial remake of the first Die Hard with Bruce Willis, the difference is that our rising star goes after to an Afghanistan trip to pull-up a 90-centimeter terrorist (????) Even the worst director ever known to the world (Uwe Boll) hasn't imagined that kind of movie. But the aircraft scene wasn't even the most depressing part of the movie. It was the 'Jolly o Gymkhana' at the very end of the movie which left me sobbing, facing my 15 euros ticket. At this time I knew something happened in my head. Fortunately this movie has only two songs, because I wouldn't have able to take more. Also fortunately Pooja Hedge wasn't a 'poor little plant' role. But all the characters are irritating, especially the Chief Minister, or whatever is he. I know physics books are sometimes expensive, but reading them is worth the price. Writers should take a look. It would be very helpful!

Annaatthe (2021)

Celexa's worst enemy

[1/10 · 2 August 2023]

The positive point of the movie is Prakash Raj's acting. Now let's go for the negative points! The plot is absolutely horrible for a movie, it looks like a three-episodes serial, without cliffhangers at the end of the episode. The dialogs are unbearable, but I think it's also a voice problem : unbearable voices of the actors make the dialogs unbearable also. Here I'm thinking about Keerthi Suresh, who may be one of the most overrated actress ever, still talking like a child although being 30. Time to grow up, lady! Jagapathi Babu's mimics are irritating and awful to watch. Soori's comedy was like putting a strawberry on a glass of Vitriol. Nayanthara find the "flower pot" role she had back in the 00s. The protagonist is overpresent, overglorified. That character does not deserve Superstar Rajinikanth's natural charisma. The brother-sister link is very cringe, and it becomes more when you see Rajinikanth is 72 (looking 35) and Keerthi is 30. But I guess having a heroine half the age of the hero is something normal in Indian cinema. To me, it is spiteful. This acerbity looks like a mix of Wiswasam and Vedalam, again with Siva as the director. Yes. That one with 9 bad movies in his 9-movie filmography. Since my childhood, I used to watch Rajinikanth movies, from 1980 to 2021. But this one easily is his worst movie of the 21th century. Atleast Enthiran had the worth-watching last 40 minutes. The movie was called a "gâchis colossal" in the French-language Wikipedia. This movie is very disturbing and depressing. During 161 minutes until now, it's heartbreaking to watch this kind of content. Again and for our wellness and mental health, please stop making movies only for the sake of the actor. Stop putting Keerthi Suresh in movies. Stop giving Siva a director chair. Stop giving Superstar Rajinikanth Franck Provost wigs, hair extensions and his 11 tons of daily make-up to make him look half his age. Even Andy Serkis didn't have that much of make-up when he "was" Captain Haddock. Shouldn't be remembered once.

Adipurush (2023)

India's most expensive fail ever

[1/10 · 22 July 2023]

In order to make a movie, first of all, you have to turn things over and over in your head, even if it takes long time to do so. Ideas must be clear and understandable. Otherwise, it became an absolute storm of meaningless ideas, which combined together is the perfect example of how to NOT make a movie. Unfortunately, this is exactly what happened with this 179-minutes unbearable attempt-of-a-movie. In the very first place, STOP making movies only for the sake of the fame of an actor, no matter who the actor is. It felt just like it was Prabhas' show throughout the movie, like Raghava got replaced by Prabhas in the mythology. Then, all the actors involved in this 75-million-dollars crash test movie should take acting lessons because even a child can act better than these people performing only for remuneration and fame, even including Prabhas, to my greatest dismay because I liked his acting in Baahubali and Saaho. Speaking of children, I think that the whole VFX were made with drawings made by kindergarten children, like with the depiction of skeletons looking like a personification of Death but are completely cartoonesque instead of being a little bit more "real". Even 2015 fantasy children-aimed movie Puli made it better. So I would say that if walking backwards was an Olympics sport, then Adipurush would be a gold medalist. The songs and the music bled my ears, as well as the the images bled my eyes. Watching this movie, we know that the 75 million dollars went directly in Prabhas' and Kriti Shannon's wallet. They were paid for this freak show so they're happy now without even giving a single damn about the quality of this vulgar-language parody of mythological events. Dialogs are completely unbelievable... this is exactly how I imagine discussions between people in that kind of experiment where newborn were put in a house to grow inside and create a new language on their own. Biggest waste ever.
