Skanda: The Attacker

Seriously director is bit educated may be. Just earlier very late movies have bit realistic or good... this is entirely director imaginary fantasy movie bluffed CM positions 🤣🤣.

What a movie ..what a director.. please don't show this movie as blockbuster and to other states and region's... i love telugu and Telugu people.. don't want criticism or make fun of them...

Seriously did this film is a hit. Why to choose this kind of comedy, fantasy content which cannot be related in any way.

Thousands of guns ,bullets cannot harm single person. Where a person can defeat entire battalion, forces every thing... please educated directors don't make fun of us ...

Skanda is a film directed by Boyapati Sreenu, starring, Ram Pothineni, Sreeleela, Saiee Manjarekar, and others. As the movie is directed by lord Boya, who is a genre himself. The film is a typical early 2000s flick where you can expect many action sequences massy songs, intros etc. To be honest, I liked this film, as I didnt expect much and kept my logical thinking aside. Those who do the same will receive the same output.

Plot is all about drama and action, the story starts with arrest of an industrialist ( Srikanth) accused of killing, betrayal. In the process to get him out from it and prove him innocent the actual story starts. The screenplay , editing , production values were good and worked out for me. Ram as the protagonist rocked it, his dedication and the hard work was truly seen, actress sreeleela, creating sensation in TFI, managed well yet, didn't match the vibe, and talking about others, they're the regular boya defined characters, esp. The antagonists, it felt as if watching a process to kill rather than showing their true powers as suited or allotted to them in the movie.

The songs except 1 doesn't hold the energy and makes the screenplay dull. The exhausted bgm by Thaman produces nothing but noise. Increasing the sond of a track\ score cant be called as a bgm.

Watching the visuals and fights are enough to entertain. Entertainment will definitely be delivered and the 'Mass' will be maintained throughout the movie.

The 1st half was thrilling and fiery, but the moment you enter the 2nd half, you'll be witnessing the routine emotional melodrama with some messages.

Therefore, watching the visuals and fights are enough to get energized.

Verdict As said by the team, its only for the cults, truly a massy ride, the only reason to watch this is RAPO, done playing the roles of cool, cute, etc for a decade, now he has decided to play the roles which portrays him as massy, fiery and it truly suited him. Boyapati's work can be praised this time too.

The director, seemingly stuck in the year 2000, has left me feeling fortunate that I watched this movie on OTT. Now, I can't help but sympathize with those who endured it on the big screen. Each actor appeared to have surpassed the boundaries of overacting, and the plot made no sense whatsoever. Similarly, the director's previous work, "Akhanda," fell into the same unfortunate category, but it managed to ride the coattails of a prevailing trend. It's high time the director and Ram reconsider the stories they choose to pursue. Im truly disheartened, but I have hope that Ram will make a triumphant return to the silver screen with a new movie."

Boyapati's Paruvu lost and found story where every character, positive or negative screams about it throughout. 2 states CMs are after each other's throat as one's son eloped with the other's daughter. So one has sent men to kill the CM and his, retrieve the daughter in return. Meanwhile, enters Bhaskar Raju with his own mission and at times enters Skanda to kill a bunch. Both of whom are directly targeting the CMs. There is also a businessman accused of murder and his daughter held hostage to force him to stay in prison. How are all these people related and will that paruvu be found infact whose paruvu will be found, forms rest of the story.

It's mindless screenplay and action scenes from the word go with Boyapati giving no respite to his audience. The hero's entry happens late so the supporting characters are introduced first followed by the whole cribbing about losing daughter/paruvu. It simply doesn't make any sense no matter how loud the characters shout in making any sense. It's random set of scenes stitched together without any semblance. It simply gets dragged on till an explosive climax giving a meh twist.

If one hoped for a flashback to make sense which is always the case with all Boyapati films and elevate the stronger lookalike, it is not delivered here. Even if the flashback was silly, there was a chance of saving this mess a little with more clarity to the character of Skanda when he is a lookalike to Bhaskar Raju yet not related to him. Having the film titled as Skanda and not focus the film on this character yet show the arrogance to announce Skanda 2 is nothing but a huge blunder from Boyapati Srinu. There is no point talking about performances, the dialogues too are plain silly and the over the top action scenes lack imagination. Skanda simply ends up as a worst film and that's about it. To be or not to be, says Skanda and one shouldn't wonder why.

The whole movie just feels like a copy of Old movies of Boyapati.

There were many illogical scenes that made me cringe a bit...

WHY SREE LEELA?! She is just an overrated actress at this point...

RAM POTHINENI deserves better script than this trash.

The only good thing about this film was Ram.

THE BAD THINGS : Some of the songs were good, But most of the others were average or just bad.

Some of the scenes were too cringey, The Climax Twist was bad!

Ain't no way I'm gonna watch the Sequel of this film.

The plot felt the same as always.

The BGM was not that good.

SUMMARY: I would rate this movie 4/10 (1/5).

DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM unless you want to torcher yourself for 3 hours.
