RRR (8/10)

by Tony Medley

197 minutes.

R.

Over the top, violent, singing and dancing, absurd battles and fights, attractive stars, totally ridiculous story based upon India’s fight for independence in the 1920s, this has it all. It’s entertaining and tense. It’s a buddy movie but they aren’t Hope and Crosby. They are Komaran Bheem (NT Rama Rao, Jr aka NTR), a Gond man looking for a girl who was stolen from her village by the evil British overlords, and Alluri Sitarama Raju (Ram Charan), a lieutenant in a local regiment of the British Army. Theirs is a strange relationship, to say the least. It’s long, with innumerable twists and turns; nothing you will see is even the slightest bit believable or realistic but, hey, it’s a movie! Relax and enjoy it. Stay for the credits that contain lively singing and dancing.
