Gurudev Hoysala

The movie is impressive. All characters are penned as multidimentional in all its shades. Even the villains are shown to have some attatchments, love and vulnerabilities and the hero, "The Protector", can act as a "villain" when needed.

The action is great, the dialogues, the script... all is perfect.

It's a very realistic and profound approach at such horrific and inhuman practise.

What Bhoomi said in some parts of the movie made my eyes wet... such hearth wrenching feelings, the director could perfectly evoke very intense emotions all throughout the movie. The helpfulness, the bewilderment at how all the corrupt system worked, the anger, the good will to make things better, betrayals... Seems so so real.

Kudos to the whole crew ot this wonderful movie. It was really an experience not only a movie to pass time!!!!!

Dolly Dhananjaya's character of the policeman has become the most amazing picture. It's a great picture for all the family to watch. There is a good message in this film. Like Dolly Dhananjaya's action and dialogues are very good. Kannada needs to be encouraged and developed by all of us. Once again the most amazing picture of Kannada . The songs and music in this film are very wonderful. The screenplay is very good. Once again I request everyone to save Kannada and encourage Kannada film. Another amazing Kannada film has come out. The action in this film is very good. I am very impressed with Dali Dhananjaya's acting.

Rating : 4/5

A complete entertainer , which was very much needed in this month for kannada movie buffs.

Plot : our hero is on investigation, where is senior office goes missing in that city , so our hero will try to find him , and then what and all problems will come and twists will come is pretty good .

Positives

1. The direction and making : The director vijay naagendra has an urge to make something unique in same routine story, and it worked for me , some scenes which will remain in my head like villain entry scene to emotional dialogue, everything got me , even though it was predictable. So thank you vijay , and make some more unique movies , I am waiting.

2 . All actors acting, every main actors in this movie has some depth in role , which makes a good watch .

3 . Music , ajaneesh Loknath has given some good music for movie , but given badass music for naveen Shankar, which made me whistle for him .

4 . Here they are trying to solve castesim problem in a common man feeling , not in any impact full scale or in any law basis , but these little tries may actually change the society.

Negatives

1. I enjoyed the movie even if it's same story I want some thing uniqueness and this one gave me , I am satisfied , but who can't watch same story and similar writing this is not for you .

Dhananjay spearheads this movie in the titular character, a no nonsense cop who will go to any extent to get justice. He is assigned the missing case of another officer and transferred to Athani. There he comes across two lovers who have eloped and are illegally detained in his police station. He gets the two married only to rile up the girl's family who are extremely castiest and obviously criminals. As the issue gets sensitive, it is upto Gurudev to find the couple and the process gives him a lead on the missing officer.

The film does highlight the Honour killing and the prevailing casteism. Despite treading with familiar tropes, the screenplay remains fairly engaging throughout. With solid villains especially Naveen Shankar as Bali, the director's job is made much easier in elevating Dhananjay's Gurudev Hoysala. There are several heroic scenes and Dhananjay had a blast enacting them. As much predictable the story is, the entertaining factor remained intact.

I for one, wished for a proper / longer showdown between Gurudev and Bali. Their final fight felt too short. Gurudev Hoysala is still a solid watch as far as commercial potboilers go.

A refreshing good base plot line and action drama with a strong social message make this product worth watching ... Daali's 25th movie is a sure shot and fits into the cop's role perfectly and hope to see him reach greater heights While bali and Dada villainous act is a show sealer without a doubt... Director Vijay has done a commendable job by exploring the talents of all artists to the fullest keeping screenplay engaging without adding commercial flavours from beginning to end... Cinematography and music carry the soul of the movie without eating our eardrums... Overall a worthy package of the good-intentioned commercial flick.
