    A Magnum Opus!!!!!!

    I watched this movie at Cinemax...first day first Show....Really this picture deserves a 9/10 and with no doubt...Each and every aspect of the movie is good and director SS Rajmouli has taken good care of the technical aspect which was outstanding in Telugu Cinema after Arundhati.......and i fell like this movie should be in Hindi, English also and........ 9 REASONS WHY THIS MOVIE SHOULD BE WATCHED: 1. Songs are Excellent 2. Bike Chasings and Stunts. 3. Kajal Agarwal- Right choice for the role and did justice to the role. 4. Dialogue delivery by Charan - reminds in some parts like Chiru. 5. Excellent performance by Srihari. 6. Special Mention for the Scene where Charan kills 100 Soilders. 7. Spell blinding technical aspects..where good care is taken for each and every take. 8. Cameo role by Chiru 9. Horse Racing, Sword fighting and good action Sequences.

    Hence, 9/10.

    The Perfect Indian Epic !!!!!!!!!

    Well, What can i say...This is what I expect from Movies : Total Entertainment. The movie has all the good stuff about western epics, Chinese epics, but the HEART of the movie is Indian.

    The director has done well to get inspired by the good things about international movies and he has added his own unique Indian touch to it.

    Basically, the movie is an amazing Love Epic set against a majestic background.

    I rarely watch south Indian movies, but this movie is way better than Jodha Akbar, Gladiator, Mughal-E-Azam!!! I think that says it all.

    Ram Charan Teja is Megastar material. Kajal Aggarwal is also very apt for the role. Songs are wonderful. Background Music is Perfect.

    All in all : The Perfect Indian Epic. A movie that you should not miss in this lifetime.

    Amazing movie

    I just watched the whole movie even without going bathroom. It was really a hell of a movie. I haven't seen anything like in Indian film history. I am from kerala and usually i don't like Telugu films except allu arjuns movies. I don't know Telugu language but even then also i really enjoyed a lot. Kudos to the team of this movie. And i am now a fan of ram charan teja.the start of the movie was surprising but after 10 minutes it changed to different. But the first 15 minutes seemed little bit boring to me. I mean very very little. the love scenes between ram and kajal was very beautiful. And i literally had goosebumps on the scene where teja chase the bus in a horse. Songs were good. The real excitement begins after the interval. From there the movie is like, like? i cant describe it in words. The 100 men fight scene was excellent though its inspired from 300 which is also my one of favourite movies. All in all this is something special!!!

    Magadheera (2009)

    The movie was so good. The story was an old one but the way they presented was amazing. The vfx and sound effects were very good in the movie.

    Beware others...Tollywood is growing!

    I should say that the Tollywood went too far with this film..

    Hats off to Rajamouli..what a great director and a great imagination his direction values are growing with each movie... i am a fan of his films starting from youthful SYE to Magadheera.. and congrats Ramcharan Teja-- amazing performance and macho man.. i really couldn't believe he did this much of action sequences and fights and dance just in his second movie...great! And Kajal was pretty as prince..also as a modern naughty girl. villain performance suits very well with hero.

    The Maximum credit goes to visual effects....Fortress and its symbol..the white field for white...and the Shiva's idle..the whole Bhairava Kona was spectacular..Hats off to those who strive hard for these.. and another thing is Dance- Bangaru Kodi Petta- Spell binding.

    NEGATIVE ASPECTS- no comedy at all...at least not a bit satisfied me.. Brahmanandam became a mere waste..Suneel was just OK.

    IMPRESSION- every Telugu person should watch for his own pride

    and others should watch to become aware of us..

    Thank you Rajamouli
