really.... house of dolls
Siddu-the hero; Hasini- the heroine.... Never expected -they would have such great chemistry..."dialogs are awesome, scenes are heart touching"....I usually don't watch songs..but this movie has something in it that I just couldn't avoid songs... the best part of the movie is climax...don't you miss it (anyways later you will watch "N" number of times)... great portrayal of characters....each character in this movie is made for that particular actor..as if though they are very natural....Once again Prakash raj has proved his might... English has less +ive adjectives to rate this movie..its a must watch movie...one can watch at least 2 times....number is just a limit......
Johnny Johnny, yes papa..
A very beautiful story with a lots of comedy. I went for the movie just to kill some time. But what I got was a nostalgic happiness.
The movie is basically a simple story of a over protective rich father and a modern day son who wants to be happy with self-dependence. When son wants a simple T-shirt, the father gives him a Louis Philippe shirt. In the course the son looses his individuality.
This is a very emotional movie, but never lost its pace because of the sublime comedy. Siddharth's acting was excellent. Prakash Raj was good in the role of the father. Frankly speaking, I hated the acting of Genelia. The dubbing for her was the worst.
I truly enjoyed this movie.

Bommarillu is a Class Movie
Sidharth presented the emotions very well on screen.He acted very well.He also sung a song in the film.That is tone of my favorite songs in my life.Genelia looked very cute.Director has lot of talent.He will go to the list of big directors in few years from now.Producer Raju has lot of guts.He is encouraging all the new blood to the Telugu cinema industry.Sidharth presented the emotions very well on screen.He acted very well.He also sung a song in the film.That is tone of my favorite songs in my life.Genelia looked very cute.Director has lot of talent.He will go to the list of big directors in few years from now.Producer Raju has lot of guts.He is encouraging all the new blood to the Telugu cinema industry.
Much better than what I had expected...
Bommarillu is the story of Sidhu's(Sidharth) struggle in dealing with a controlling father.Life moves along manageable well till the point where he gets engaged to a girl of his father choice and then goes on to meet the girl of his dreams,Hasini (Genelia).Sidhu who had been rebelling from within until then,finally finds a reason to bring out the rebel who had been hiding within him all along.
The movie moves at a steady pace and keep the viewer interested at all junctions.Lead performance by Sidharth and Genelia are commendable though Genelia occasionally stumbles from sweet to sappy.The supporting cast does a decent job but I found Prakash Raj a little tiring as he does the same thing he does in every movie with the tapping-forehead-with-four-fingers-thing.
Strong points for the movie include:- 1.Squeaky clean script:-Its thekind of squeaky clean that u can watch this movie sitting next to your maths professor without flinching.The lead pair rarely make bodily contact except for some dance moves.No double meaning jokes,no exposing,no innuendo of any sort.Kudos to the director for his effort to keep it this clean.
2.Story&Direction:-The approach is the same,but at least the story is different.the characters of Sidhu and his father are well fleshed and their portrayal is commendable.It would have been easy to dismiss Sidhu for being a wuss without a spine if it wasn't for the directors effort in showcasing the emotions that lurk withing a man without freedom.
3.Genelia:-The whole script rests on her likability.And she does her job pretty well.Sometimes she does stumble on the line between sweet and sappy, but she finds her balance pretty fast.
4.Music:-Another great job by the talented Devi sri Prasad.Engaging and fun.
Weak points:-
1.The comedy track is weak.
2.Kota Srinivas rao and Jayasudha are wasted.They do provide strength to the cast but they are too talented to be offered that little.
3.Occasionally over sweet script but they are minor glitches and overall don't effect the movie to a great extent.
Bottomline:-A very good movie to be enjoyed with the entire family.If this movie doesn't break records,it will certainly run in theaters for a long time.

Finding Nemo meets Maine Pyar Kiya
Bommarillu is dressed to the nine's with novelties that makes it tick... and boy o boy - they work big time! Presentation is the key differentiator, otherwise the story is a tried & tested formula in Indian cinema since the medium itself.
Siddharth: After Rang De, the expectations run high and he does surpass them. Consistent performer indeed.
Genelia: An apt choice and has all the coy looks to carry the role effortlessly. Very promising.
Prakash Raj: Luckily he does not succumb to reprising "I care a hoot about the camera" attitude. Hence the restrained performance works for the movie playing the "I decide for you" father.
Jaya Sudha:: Small role but effective.
Kota, Subramaniam Dharmavarapu, Suneel, Brahmanandam & Tanikella Bharani:: Adequate
Songs are hummable. Foreign locales are beautiful and Hyderabad never looked so appealing!!
Bhaskar the director:: Our "Da man" has mastered the 4-P's of marketing spot-on.
PS: Last time the tag-line "Love makes life beautiful...." was used in Mahesh Bhatt's "Aashiqui " 1990.
