Katamarayudu

My Review:- 2.5/5

Genre: Action - Drama

Theatre watched : PVR Cinemas Audi 9

Censor Rating : "U/A" 

Run time : 149 Min

Pre release Expectations :

"Katamarayudu" is probably the least hyped movie in Pawan's career mostly being a remake and having it telecasted in TV several times would be the reason...Dolly took the responsibility of directing this movie...Shruthi Haasan is once again pairing opposite Pawan...Anup Rubens composed tunes for this movie...Initial hearings haven't grabbed much attention but lets see how it looks on screen...Sharat Marar is the producer...Let's see whether this movie turns out to be hit or not???

Did it reach the expectations ???

My Review :- 
"Katamarayudu" clearly indicates Pawan's diminishing interest and tiring nature towards story selection...Except for Pawan Kalyan there isn't a single element to watch out for...Weakest script,horrible second half,mediocre songs makes it a boring fare...!!! 

Highlights:-
Pawan Kalyan is with his full energies.
First half is better to an extent with decent entertainment.
Shruthi Haasan is decent. 

Disappointments:- 

Weakest script.

Routine execution.

Badly executed climax. 

Boring and dragged second half.

Music by Anup Rubens is certainly the weakest part. Back ground score is also not up to the mark.

Laage Laage song is not shot well. Picturization never looked apt.

Cheap production values.

Comedy hasn't worked out.

Rao Ramesh is too loud and irritating.

Dolly would have made decent changes to the script to make it more entertaining rather than sticking to the original.               

Engaging moments:-.   
"Jivvu Jivvu" song comes as a breather for fans.

My verdict :- "Katamarayudu" is just a routine movie and its range depends on how mass and family audiences receive it...Time for Pawan to wear a thinking hat...Below Average - Average fare...!!!
