Just watched the movie in theaters on 15th of October.
Overall review : totally worth the watch, theatre/bgm experience is outstanding.
Detailed review:
Story: 9/10
Rishab shetty acting: 10/10
Visual experience: 10/10
Vfx: 7/10
The first half is gripping. Fight sequence in extraordinary, few scenes along the way alone makes the watch worth while.
Now second half felt a Lil boring. They could have cut it a Lil short. Each time you think it's over, there is a twist.
Now listing down the misses for me (subjective)
1. Over done vfx during the second half, which made me lose my connect with the plot
(Spoiler)
2. Rukhmini Vasanth is such an amazing actress but I felt she wasn't utilized well especially once her true self is revealed. She lacked the cunning-ness and the aura to play the negative role. Her fight sequence, I feel could have been better.
3. Few scenes are way over the top, to the point that it gets annoying.
4. Humour is Great, but I felt it was forced at unnecessary places and overused again.
5. Action sequences could have been cut short (2nd half)
The was an almost there movie for me, missed to strike the mark for silliest reasons. Had the chance to become an epic movie but settled to be a great one.
But having said that, it is a must watch and worth an experience. Hands down.
Congratulations to the whole team.
