Bagheera

The movie is good, it kept audiance engaged especially in first half the scenes the hype everything is well done, some scenes were so good felt like watching a 3d movie and for some I was wondering how well it blends if it was is 4dx. But still in 2d they have kept everything alive.

And yes compared to first half second half could have been much more better in terms of engaging audiance and the story after interval.

But I'm not complaining second half is disappointing but competitively first half is good.

And moreover I don't recall seeing movie like this in kannada I mean kinda feels something fresh in kannada industry.

But definitely watch in THEATERS, it's best enjoyed in cinema's.

A very average commercial entertainer! Absolutely nothing new in the storyline, same old story of the main lead trying to be a super hero by saving the masses in complete disguise as Bagheera. He single-handedly does fight hundreds together hooligans backed by weapons, guns etc without getting himself hurt, a totally unrealistic picture to believe into. But as an action entertainer, quite an average one. Originally a Kannada movie dubbed in all South Indian languages. Available in Netflix, my ratings 5/10!

Vedanth aspires to be a superhero and jumps from a building, fracturing his leg. His mother assures him that the one who wears a cape is not the only superhero by giving his cop father as an example. Vedanth decides to become a cop like his father. Years later, he has achieved his dream and gets his posting in Mangaluru. Vedanth being a strict and honest police officer, raids the criminals in his jurisdiction and tries to clean up the city. However, he is soon stopped by his superior which shatters his dream to serve his best as a cop. The atrocities don't stop, forcing Vedanth to don a mask and mete out vigilante justice as Bagheera. What happens when he is pitted against a ruthless villain Rana, forms rest of the story.

Narrated in 7 chapters, Bagheera is an ambitious vigilante action film whose story is written by Prashanth Neel. On paper it definitely sounds good but it is the lackluster screenplay by Dr. Suri that undermines the story. The first half is quite below average with back to back outdated scenes involving Vedanth the cop. The film works only when Bagheera enters and that too when he is in action. Dr. Suri failed to take advantage of a origin story and the token supporting cast get too many generic scenes. The action blocks do stand out and it is indeed good to not show Bagheera as invincible. The half baked love story doesn't contribute much.

It is the second half where it focuses more on Bagheera going after the main baddie and parallely, CBI starts the hunt for Bagheera. This intriguing plot is again underwhelmingly executed and though, Vedanth prepping himself as Bagheera with gadgets and stuff is a cool idea, the way the director presents it instantly loses it's impact. I get it, superhero/vigilante films are not to be taken too seriously but the unlikely team Vedanth forms is laughable. The other negative is the two songs that are forgettable. This leaves Bagheera with the action blocks and an ambitious climax fight on a freight train. The vfx is good with few obvious glitches. The vision of Bagheera should have been truly backed with good writing, which sadly doesn't happen. I am going with a lenient rating for the attempt but the film offers nothing memorable.

As good as the first half of the movie is , the second half is equally disappointing. The movie is backed by amazing background score by ajneesh loknath and an extraordinary acting by Shri murli. First half of the story was really good, I went back in looking for a promising second half but the scenes were lagged unnecessarily, Action scenes are dragged unnecessarily by the director. Though every actor have delivered their 100% , the wow factor in the movie is Majorly missing. But overall it was a good theatre experience, if anyone wants to go to theatre to watch this movie, you'll definitely have a good one time watch experience.

This film brings Western superhero grandeur to real-life scenarios, with KGF/Hombale-style cinematography and massy dialogues. It's packed with intense, disturbing, and violent moments, making for a high-impact, gripping start.

The family bond established early on is heartfelt, creating an emotional anchor for the film. The romantic track between the leads feels fresh at first, with both characters strong in their own ways and sharing morals, but as the story progresses, it falls into the usual tropes and loses its charm.

The screenplay, though action-packed, feels rushed due to fast-paced editing, and at times, the choppy cuts fail to make a significant impact during the action sequences.

The film does a good job of presenting a societal dilemma around the definition of a hero. It explores the tension between an ideal, moral world and the harsh, practical reality where circumstances force people to compromise their values.

While the first half sets up a lot of conflict, the second half becomes more engaging, introducing new characters and stronger action pieces that elevate the story. As the story unfolds, it becomes predictable, with familiar twists. The final showdown feels dragged out, and a tighter edit would've made for a stronger conclusion. Still, the message remains thought-provoking.

While not perfect, the film is a commendable attempt at something new in the mass film genre. It's a one-time watch for fans of high-octane action and dramatic twists. The sequel hint leaves room for more, but personally, it didn't spark much anticipation.
