KK's Take

||Honest and Passionate take on Movies||

#HeyBalwanth is an out-and-out entertainer. There could be polarised reactions to its concept and treatment. But thanks to Naresh, VennelaKishore, and Sudarshan for the hilarious moments that leave us in splits.😂👌🏻

Though the emotions fell flat and felt unconvincing for the most part, the emotional dynamic between Annapurnamma and Naresh towards the end brings a heartwarming closure.

Not a perfect one & it takes some time to adjust to its meter. On the surface, it tries to be silly and weirdly funny, just like its title. But at its core & as it proceeds the love story of Siddharth & Sravya is full of heart and genuinely beautiful.♥️

Best Telugu Movie of 2025.

The interval reveals the core conflict in an interesting way, one that demands strong action choreography. But neither the action packs the necessary punch nor the emotion lands.
That’s exactly how the whole movie feels. Despite good ideas, the execution fails to translate well onto the screen. However, @publicstar_bsk ’s striking presence and @RoshanKanakala ’s sincere efforts make it slightly watchable.

The climax of #TheGirlFriend is easily the most whistle-worthy moment I’ve witnessed on the big screen this year! Barring a few pacing issues, I absolutely loved every aspect of this bold yet beautiful, simple yet solid romantic drama.👌🏻🔥
Congratulations to @iamRashmika and @23_rahulr on your National Award(unanimous).🙌

Pradeep is thrown into another absurd situation like Dragon & Love Today and is given a task to entertain with his unique expressions.
As a movie, it may be a step behind those two, but as a performer, Pradeep delivers again with ease!
Absolutely loved the way this film smoothly switches between fun and emotions throughout.
Sarath Kumar’s role is a classic example of how a predictable character can still be portrayed in a refreshing way.
Mamitha Baiju makes a strong impact with her performance.
After a full on entertaining first half, it struggles to match the vibe.
Especially there are multiple issues with writing & the way characters behave in its 2nd half.
However can’t deny that I was entertained enough and that’s what matters the most. Liked it����🏻

#Sundarakanda picks a superb plot point, packs it with ample humour elevated by Satya’s one liners👌🏻 & delivered!
The only issue is that the proceedings felt a bit disjointed in many places.
Good songs would’ve enhanced the love track.
Despite the flaws, this clean Rom-com is entertaining & Recommended👍����

A major issue with #Maareesan is that it takes about an hour for the story to pick up pace.
However, if you can sit through the initial slow narrative, it'll take you on an a small emotional ride towards the end.
It’s that kind of a film that conceals its genre until halfway through.
Solid performances from the leads makes it an okay watch overall.

Investigative thrillers always grab instant attention. When good lore is added to it, then I’m already seated.

#Mandalamurders falls into same category, where intriguing proceedings are backed by solid reasoning behind it.

Though it ends on a simple note,it succeeds in holding the suspense till the end. Recommended.

Attended the early screening of #Together & here are my thoughts :
If you think The substance(2024) is the weirdest film you’ve seen, just give ‘Together’ a chance.
This body horror is Stunningly grotesque and Grotesquely beautiful.
Definitely ‘don’t watch’ if you’re faint-hearted.

There's a scene before the final battle in #Superman where he holds up a building from falling, allowing a woman in a car to escape. And when she does & looks back, he's rising from the dust with the Superman theme music playing...

That's one of the best theatrical moments of the year.🔥🔥🔥

#F1TheMovie
This is what cinema is capable of.
It can pull in someone like me—who knows nothing about cars or racing—for two and a half hours and still deliver one of the best IMAX experiences of my life.

This is CINEMA.
This is why I LOVE CINEMAAAAAA!

#Kannappa is a historical action drama based on the legendary devotee of Lord Shiva, set around the Srikalahasti Temple.

While the devotional aspects land well, they arrive a bit too late—by then, the action and fictional storytelling have already fallen flat.

However, the "Shiva Shiva Shankara" song and the final 20 minutes stand out as the heart of the film, offering a strong devotional impact.

Among the supporting cast, #MohanBabu and #Prabhas truly shine, especially their powerful dialogue exchange is a standout moment.

#VishnuManchu gave a decent performance especially during the climax.

Unfortunately, the VFX is highly inconsistent, diminishing the experience during several key scenes.

First Half : li’l Lengthy but very engaging.
Hats off to #Dhanush : Not everyone can accept & pulloff such a character with utmost believability.
#Nagarjuna stands out with an equally important role and a neat performance & multiple variations.
#Kuberaa

[Kittu @KKs_Take]

Definitely a Good film, but the 2nd half too is overly lengthy. Despite this, it ends on a satisfactory note. #ShekharKammula delivers a gripping crime drama, giving equal space and scope to all lead characters. #Dhanush, #NagarjunaAkkineni, and #RashmikaMandanna shine in their roles, and the film doesn't let star power overshadow the story. Apart from its excessive length, there are barely any complaints. Overall, a well-crafted film.

•#ThugLife explores the journey of Rangaraya Sakthivel and his dynamics with allies, enemies, and just about every predictable situation you’d expect in a routine gangster drama.
•Just a day ago, if you had asked me, I’d have said: “With a cast and crew this stellar, it can be anything but bad.” But...But,
•Thug Life starts off well establishing Sakthivel(Kamal) and Amar(Simbu) characters with a solid shootout episode.
•The first half, while not exceptional, moves at a decent pace and holds interest until the interval.
•The much-anticipated Sakthivel vs Amar conflict lacks the necessary punch. but their performances help carry itthrough to the halfway mark.
•Everything about the second half turns into a complete train wreck. Aishwarya Lekshmi is the only one who leavesa li’l impression.
•Despite solid visuals, good music, and a star-studded cast, nothing could save the film from becoming bland and Life-less.

#Mazaka delivers what it promised.

A Typical Trinath Rao Nakkina mark entertainer with a blend of Rhyming dialogues, Funny punches, Missing logics & Situation less songs.

It may not be as good as ‘Nenu Local’ but definitely better than Dhamaka!

Saradhaga okasari chuseyachu!👍🏻

•#Chhaava , a historical period drama that depicts the bravery of Chhatrapati Sambhaji Maharaj when he went against the mighty Mughal empire.
•Though the proceedings were a bit uneven, #VickyKaushal and #AkshayeKhanna made sure to give a ‘Roaring’ experience - Liked it👍🏻

•#Thandel is a love story of a fishermen leader where he must choose b/w his love and responsibility.
•The core emotion, ‘Longing for love’ worked well.
•While the patriotic touch was a hit and miss, Pre-climax(title justification) stood out making it a decent watch.
