V Movie Review

Release date : September 05th, 2020

123telugu.com Rating : 2.75/5

Starring : Nani, Sudheer Babu, Nivetha Thomas, Aditi Rao Hydari

Director : Mohana Krishna Indraganti

Producers : Dil Raju, Sirish, Lakshman, Harshith Reddy

Music : S. Thaman, Amit Trivedi

Cinematography : P. G. Vinda

Editor : Marthand K. Venkatesh

Post the lockdown, so many films have released on OTT platforms but today’s release, V is one of the biggest films to release in Telugu. Starring Nani and Sudheer Babu in lead roles, this film is out on Amazon Prime. Let’s see how it is.

A police officer gets killed in Hyderabad and DCP Aditya(Sudheer Babu) is brought in action to handle the case. The killer(Nani) leaves clues for Aditya and says he will commit more murders in the days to come. With this, a cat and mouse game starts where the murders keep happening and Aditya gets clueless. Who is this killer? Why is he killing everyone? What is his connection with Aditya? and where do the two heroines Nivetha and Aditi Rao feature in this setup? To know this, you need to watch the film.

Plus Points

Nani is the life and soul of the film and it is his negative act that lifts the spirits of the film. Nani does an action avatar for the first time and he is pretty good. The way he uses his unique dialogue delivery to create a negative effect is amazing. Nani has an amazing screen presence and he uses his swag in the best way possible in the film. One can say that his new avatar is the major plus of the film.

Sudheer Babu is a perfect fit in his cop’s role and showcases what he is capable of. He is the hero of the film and takes on Nani in full force. Be it his dances, emotions, or dialogue delivery, Sudheer Babu is good.

Nivetha Thomas is okay and looks glamorous in the film. She shares decent chemistry with Sudheer Babu. Aditi Rao comes in the key second part and makes her presence felt. The action sequences or you can say the murders showed are grippingly executed in the first half and raise the curiosity levels. Minus Points

The second half is where the film goes for a toss. Once it goes back into the flashback mode, things become very slow, and routine scenes are showcased at a stretch. One can easily guess that Nani is doing all this with a motto and because of this, his characterization looks weak. Both the love tracks of Nani and Sudheer Babu are very dull and executed in a pale manner.

All those who think there will be solid twists will be mistaken as the story is a routine revenge drama with a straight forward and predictable plot. Also, the starting of the film is a bit slow as the makers waste too much time to get into the actual story.

The biggest drawback is the climax of the film. After all the hype, one feels that there will be a big twist but sadly that does not happen and the film is ended on a silly note. There should have been a proper masala ending and with good scope to do that, the director does not make use of it and ends the film just like that which disappoints the audience.

Technical Aspects :

For the first time in his career, Dil Raju is producing an action film and he has gone all out with V. The production values of the film are top-notch as the visuals by PG Vinda and money spent is seen in every scene. Amit Trivedi’s music is okay but Thaman’s BGM is even better. His score for all the thrills and tense moments is superb. The stars have been designed quite stylishly and especially Nani. The lyrics for all the songs are very good and the art direction is amazing.

Coming to the director Mohanakrishna Indrganthi, he has taken a complete U-turn from his normal films and surprises with V. Even though his story is routine, the way his screenplay runs the first half was quite good. But looks like he ran out of ideas in the second half and made things routine, dull, and rushed. If he would have worked on a good twist in the end, things would have been something else.

On the whole, V is a typical revenge drama that does not live up to the hype. It is a film with routine cat and mouse set up but the two stunning heroes make things quite interesting for the audience. Nani’s surprising new avatar, Sudheer Babu’s sincere act, and the first half are major assets. But the second half becomes slow with dull narration and a silly ending. Barring this, V is a perfect OTT release that can be only given a shot for its star presence and stylish taking. The only thing you need to do is to lower your expectations while watching the film.

'V' Movie Review: Regular Revenge

'V' Movie Review: Regular Revenge

Movie: V Rating: 2.5/5 Banner: Sri Venkateshwara Creations Cast: Nani, Sudheer Babu, Nivetha Thomas, Aditi Rao, Vennela Kishore, Tanikella Bharani, and others Music: Amit Trivedi Background score: Thaman Cinematography: PG Vinda Producers: Sirish, Raju Written, and directed by Indraganit Mohana Krishna Release date: September 5, 2020 Streaming on: Amazon Prime

“V” is not only the 25th film in Nani’s career, it also is the first film in his career that debuted on an OTT platform.

While many other small movies had already streamed on OTT platforms, this is the first major Telugu movie featuring a popular star like Nani to premiere on a digital streaming site.

Let’s analyze.

Story: DCP Aditya (Sudheer Babu) is a super cop known for his many achievements. A killer (Nani) believed to be a psychopath challenges the DCP to nab him before he finishes killing four persons.

The killer leaves enough clues and messages for the DCP. Meanwhile, Aditya seeks the help of his girlfriend Apoorva (Nivetha), a crime novelist in solving the clues left by the killer. But is he a serial killer, and if so, what is his motive?

The rest of the story deals with this point.

Artistes’ Performances: Although the film begins with Sudheer Babu getting a heroic introduction like a typical mass hero, would there be any doubt that the real hero is Nani? In the role of ‘killer’, Nani gets the bad boy histrionics well. But he goes overboard in many places. He is not at his natural self here. Still, he is the best part of this thriller, makes a riveting watch in the beginning portions with his performance.

Sudheer Babu as a super cop shines. He gets equal footage as Nani does. 

Aditi Rao and Nivetha Thomas don’t have much screen time in the film and both their roles are clichéd. Raja Chembrolu as his Nani’s friend in the army and Vennela Kishore as Sudheer’s team members are okay.

Technical Excellence: The film boasts a rich production design and high technical values. The cinematography by PG Vinda is the top class.

The background score by Thaman is the best part while the songs are just okay. Editing is crisp.  

Highlights: Nani and Sudheer Babu Background score

Drawback: Predictable Backstory Excessive Violence Weak Screenplay

Analysis “V” begins much like a serial killer movie and slowly moves into the genre of “Aparachitudu” with Nani leaving clues at the spot after killing people with cryptic messages.

Also, the screenplay runs on the similar fashion of “Kick” (Ravi Teja vs Shaam). However, the cat and mouse games between Nani and Sudheer Babu though are predictable hold interest.

Any layman can easily guess that Nani is not a serial killer. 45 minutes after the film, we would know that this is not a serial killer story but the story of vengeance. 

Anyone who has seen enough Indian masala action movies can guess Nani would have flashbacks to reveal the real motive. Such stories click when the backstory of the protagonist is thrilling. But ‘V’ fails on that front. The flashback is as predictable as a Boyapati movie.

The moment, the flashback is opened, the pace drops, the film slips. 

Moreover, the basic story of "V" is nothing but a lean version of Murugadoss ‘Ghajini’ including the Asin angle. 

The so-called action sequences and shootouts may be new for a Nani starrer but not for the audiences. So, they don’t excite much. The romance part shot both the pairs – Nani and Aditi, Sudheer Babu and Nivetha, is clichéd to the core.  

To be fair, “V” begins well and holds interest thanks to Nani’s acting. Director Indraganti should have focused on the latter part of the story. He also has used Telugu movie references like K Raghavendra Rao, Boyapati, and other movie making styles to elicit humor, which is fine but the investigation scenes and the clues are so formulaic. 

All in all, Nani’s 25th film lacks uniqueness. It is a regular story of revenge. The title “V” stands for Nani’s name in the film but it is about vengeance. 

Bottom line:  'V'ery Ordinary

V movie review: Nani, Sudheer Babu's battle of egos inconsistent and predictable

V is a Telugu film, and if a top star is portrayed as an anti-hero, he cannot be a diabolical person at any cost.

V movie review: Nani, Sudheer Babu's battle of egos inconsistent and predictable

Language: Telugu

Indraganti Mohana Krishna’s V , starring Nani and Sudheer Babu, begins with a quote from William Shakespeare’s The Tempest:  “At this hour lie at my mercy all mine enemies.” But the film is not really based on the play or the characters. So what is the significance of the quote then? The answer lies in the lead up to the many brutal deaths of villains in the story by a mysterious killer.

The killer (Nani) relishes the act of killing so much that he finds creative ways to kill his subjects, but most of them have to do with finding the right technique to ensure a quick death. He loves puzzles and challenging those in power because he wants to make a point. And the responsibility to stop this killer falls in the hands of a tough cop, DCP Aditya, who struggles to find a motive behind the killing spree. Aditya knows that time is fast running out and no matter how hard he tries, the killer is always a step ahead of him.

The entire drama revolves around the battle of egos between these two characters, played by Nani and Sudheer Babu, and who is going to emerge as the winner. So far, so good. But then, the biggest villain of the film is the world and the characters that inhabit it.

The story itself feels like a watered down version of an FBI manhunt operation, where you are expected to empathise with the killer. Why? Because it is a Telugu film, and if a top star is portrayed as an anti-hero, he cannot be a diabolical person at any cost.

Then there must be a purpose behind it. This, in turn, affects the way we perceive the story. We empathise with both the hero and the anti-hero. We root for both of them, and want both of them to win. As a result, the clash of egos simply feels like a never-ending wait for the big reveal — a flashback — that you can sense coming from a mile away. All this makes the drama quite predictable.

Then there is the whole aspect of how the story is narrated. In a nutshell, V struggles to find its rhythm or create dramatic moments which will take you by surprise. There is barely an element of tension even when the investigation is underway.

If Aditya is hellbent on catching the killer, should the focus be on his personal life and how he flirts with a crime novelist, Apoorva (Nivetha Thomas), whom he has just met a couple of days ago? Their fleeting romance punctates the drama like an unnecessary comma in a sentence. He suspects her at one point, but it does not lead to anything that you would find interesting. Her passion for crime literature does help Aditya in one aspect, and the lead up to that moment feels like a banal exercise. Could they have not met at his office, pouring over the files and other data? Or how about a different puzzle which actually requires them to short circuit their grey cells because it is so hard to crack? The more you think about V, the more you realise what a shaky ground it is built on.

The only time the drama comes alive is when Nani appears on screen. In the first act, at least, he does come across as an unpredictable character, whose ability to get into the head of people around him sets him apart. He scares them out with his jokes, and he stays calm no matter what. Nani pulls this off well, and his occasional conversations with Babu, who is earnest in his role, are reasonably well written. But such moments are often short-lived. Among other actors, Aditi Rao Hydari, who plays a key role, has limited screen time. However, she is the emotional core of the story. It all seems good on paper, but the effect does not translate well on screen.

Thaman’s background score lacks punch. On the bright side, the film is well-shot and PG Vinda creates the right ambience and mood with his lighting.

When you think about how the entire film unfolds, it feels like Krishna, the writer and director, has three stories to tell — one is the clash between the cop and the killer; the second is a revenge drama, with a big canvas but low stakes; the third is a commentary on the many social evils in the society. Only one of these stories is remotely interesting on screen. Perhaps, by the end of the film, you will figure out what that is. But when you do, you will feel like you have solved the puzzle without having to try too hard. That is the catch-22 situation that V finds itself in. It sets out to be a puzzle, but is also fairly easy to crack.

V is streaming on Amazon Prime Video India.

V Movie Review: Passable Action Thriller

V Movie Review

The much-awaited film V has finally released on OTT platform Amazon Prime . The movie is Nani’s 25th film and also stars Sudheer Babu in the lead role. The trailer promised a solid thriller and let’s see if the movie lives up to the expectations. Here is the V Movie Review:

V Movie Review

Aditya(Sudheer Babu) is a dynamic police officer who gets many awards and fame for solving criminal cases. On the other hand, a killer(Nani) jumps into the scene by killing a police officer and challenges Aditya to catch him before he kills his next targets. Who is this killer and why he is committing crimes by challenging DCP Aditya forms the rest of the story.

PERFORMANCES:

Nani has nailed it, his performance as a killer was top notch. Be it dialogue delivery or expressions he stole the show. Sudheer Babu is impressive as an energetic police officer. His acting skills have improved a lot and this is his career’s best performance.

Nivetha Thomas has done a great job in her role and looks glamorous. Aditi Rao Hydari is neat in her role and has performed well. Vennela Kishore was good in his role however it’s not a comedy role for him. All other characters were short and justified their roles.

TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT:

Director Mohankrishna Indraganti has done an excellent job in the first half. Though the story seems routine revenge drama he presented it very well with a gripping screenplay in the first half. However, he failed to match the curiosity in the second half as it goes downhill and the climax is just disappointing.

Action sequences were composed well in the film. Production values are good and each frame looks rich. Songs composed by Amit Trivedi are good and the BGM by Thaman is apt for the scenes, although it gives you Rakshasudu vibes. Cinematography is decent and Editing is done properly.

PLUS POINTS:

  • Action sequences

MINUS POINTS:

  • Lagging second half
  • Crime motive is not as convincing

V is a decent action thriller that has some very good action sequences and gripping moments in the first half. However, the narration goes awry in the second half and the climax is devoid of any excitement. With thrillers, the screenplay should keep you on the edge but that’s not the case here which is a bit disappointing. With audience starved for new content, it is a decent watch.

V MOVIE REVIEW CLICK TO RATE THE MOVIE

Yet another OTT release and this time around, it is the 25th film of actor Nani, in which he plays the antagonist for the first time. However, it is the good cop Adithya (Sudheer Babu) who gets the hero introduction scene. Our hero has something “massier” lined up.

The plot revolves around a cop and a serial killer who taunts him with clues and catch-me-if-you-can lines. Who is V and why does he commit these murders? And why does he choose Adithya to communicate these to and taunt, when it could have been any other officer; even a one higher in rank? So far, so good.

A double murder within the first 20 minutes does set up the tempo, however, the director fails to utilise this start and tries to pack too many elements and ends up as a Hollywood wannabe version of a crime thriller. You also have a Scarlet Pimpernel/Da Vinci style symbols being left at the crime scene.

Usually, serial killers in movies are known to be targetting women, here it is a welcome change. In this day and age, to show killers using mobiles to communicate is a bit of a stretch, considering the tracking technology we have, thankfully an explanation has been given for the same. We also wonder when a slice of novelty would be infused into those stereotypical don/henchmen scenes. 

Adithya and Apoorva’s (Nivetha Thomas who we are told is a first-class Psychology graduate) first meeting may have been construed as something casual and cool, nonetheless, comes nothing as such and looks to be contrived. Over time, both characters develop a more natural chemistry. Whichever event Adithya attends, Apoorva lands up conveniently, otherwise how will the romantic track proceed?

Albeit, there is a little bit of reprieve in the sense that our heroine is not there in the story to just hang by the hero’s side, she aids him in his mission to nab V as well. However, their story does act as a speed-breaker in between while the same couldn’t be said of the Nani-Aditi Rao Hydari (who probably comes for the shortest timeline of all) love story. Despite the limited time, there is a bit of a freshness.

Nani’s hero introduction scene, puffing away and plunging a sharp object at the victim’s ? neck does add a bit of mystique, you can’t miss the Arjun Reddy hangover. We sincerely hope the glasses were for anonymity and not a hero introduction accessory.

Coming to the performances, Sudheer Babu is constrained and delivers with his tall frame aiding him in the role of a police officer. Nivetha is a natural and shines with whatever little material she has.

Coming to the man of the moment, Nani waltz in his V avatar, perhaps borrowed from V for Vendetta, as with many other elements in the story. Going for grey lens seems to have worked in his favour. Watch out for the scenes where he stays impassive in those close shaves, just like any other shrewd criminal would have done.

Aditi brings in a lot of dignity to her role. However, cute scenes announcing pregnancy are really becoming a tiring trope. Dialogues are intelligent and witty. Other technical departments are adequate. Overall, the movie follows a pattern - it starts off well, dips and then revives a bit and then, rinse and repeat.

“V Movie” is a 2020 Indian Telugu-language action thriller film directed by Mohana Krishna Indraganti. The film stars Nani, Sudheer Babu, Nivetha Thomas, and Aditi Rao Hydari in pivotal roles.

The movie revolves around a cat-and-mouse game between two contrasting characters: a charismatic, psychopathic serial killer named Vishnu (played by Sudheer Babu) and a meticulous, righteous police officer named Aditya (played by Nani). Vishnu commits a series of brutal murders, leaving behind a cryptic ‘V’ symbol as his signature, challenging Aditya to apprehend him.

As the narrative unfolds, the film delves into the psychological battle between the two protagonists, with Aditya determined to bring Vishnu to justice. Aditi Rao Hydari plays the role of Saheba, a woman with connections to both Vishnu and Aditya, adding complexity to the plot.

“V” is known for its gripping screenplay, intense action sequences, and strong performances by the lead actors. Nani and Sudheer Babu deliver compelling performances in their respective roles, while Nivetha Thomas and Aditi Rao Hydari also shine in their characters.

The film blends elements of suspense, action, and drama, keeping the audience engaged throughout. The music composed by Amit Trivedi adds to the film’s appeal.

“V” was released on the Amazon Prime Video streaming platform due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and it received mixed to positive reviews from critics and audiences alike. It is notable for its unique narrative and the clash between its lead characters, making it a notable addition to Telugu cinema.

V Movie Review: A star vehicle that fails to make the cut

Rating: ( 2 / 5).

With movies like V , it's the big reveal in the second half that has to be breathtaking. Given writer-director Mohankrishna Indraganti's track record (read Gentleman , whose second half was quite engaging), it was but natural to expect that V , his most expensive and apparently first masala film, would deliver nothing less than a sucker punch. Far from it, the film makes do with a damp squib of a climax, a damsel in distress, and a dastardly group of predators who behave like dodos.

The film seems to believe that making the alleged super-cop (Sudheer Babu as DCP Adithya, a gallantry winner who enjoys prestige in society) repeatedly speak the word 'bastard' is going to rev up the audience. No, it doesn't. Probably realising that the script doesn't possess a strong dose of suspense (which Indraganti seems to confuse with Vennela Kishore's character putting on that 'question mark' expression throughout), the director infuses a laughably misleading romcom track involving Sudheer and Nivetha Thomas. It's misleading because it makes us think of Nivetha's crime novelist as a possible honey-trap.

Talking of the excruciating track wherein conversations labour to look cute and intelligent, Sudheer's one-and-a-half expressions meet a perfect match in Nivetha's one-and-a-half expressions (seriously, are these the same actors who were in Sammohanam  and Brochevarevaraa ?).  

Cast: Nani, Sudheer Babu, Nivetha Thomas

Direction: Mohankrishna Indraganti

Producer: Dil Raju-Shirish-Harshith Reddy

To make matters all the more affected and misleading, Nivetha's parents (played by Rohini and Thalaivasal Vijay) behave like eccentric characters from a dark comedy for no rhyme or reason.

Nani, in the meantime, keeps making an occasional, vapid appearance, reeling off lifeless lines in very much the same voice modulation. Growing a certain type of a beard and twirling his moustache in a certain type of manner is what he brings to the table. His shockingly sketchy character makes dry pop-culture references to K Raghavendra Rao's sensuous songs, Game Of Thrones and even Boyapati Srinu's style of action sequences in serious scenes — all of which strip his character of any gravitas.

The disastrous dialogues trivialise Nani's character, making us wonder if he was an aspiring filmmaker or an actor in the past. As a calculated criminal who doesn't have faith in the system, Nani delivers a largely inconsistent act.

The female characters exist simply to be wooed by the men in a minute and a half flat. It's not difficult to imagine the fate of Aditi Rao Hydari's Saheba if you have watched the trailer of V . From Harish Utthaman to Adarsh Balakrishnan, they all look like caricatures in a film whose action scenes are riddled with lazy shootout stretches.

For a film that overindulges in Sudheer Babu, at least the majesty of his character should have been conveyed visually, instead of just being brought out through dialogues. For a film that calls itself an action-thriller, at least the investigation tracks should have gone beyond the serial killer throwing up literary hints that our cop seeks to decode in the most boring manner possible.

SS Thaman's background score attempts to be a saving grace (although it reminds us of Ratsasan ), so does PG Vinda's cinematography. Amit Trivedi shows promise with the songs (barring the ridiculously mounted party song).

This film might still have stood a chance had Nani known how to mix menace with comic timing in a potent manner. Alas!

Release Date: 5 th September, 2020 (Amazon prime)

Rating: 4.5/5

Synopsys: A cop is murdered and the case is handed over to DCP Aditya. The killer leaves clues and challenges Aditya to stop him from committing further crimes. Who is this killer? Why did he challenge Aditya? Will Aditya catch the killer?

Review: This is the much awaiting movie that got released on OTT platform starring the Real Star Nani and Sudheer Babu in the lead roles.

DCP Aditya is a super cop at Hyderabad who has been honoured with many prestigious Awards and who is considered as the most desirable bachelor and a celebrity. He meets Apoorva Ramanujan an aspiring crime novelist and falls in love with her. One day a police officer is murdered and the case is handed over to DCP Aditya.  The killer leaves a note directed at Aditya also calls and informs him that he is planning to kill few more people and challenges DCP to stop and catch him. The killer leaves hits at the crime scene of every crime he commits. Thus begins the chase between the killer and the DCP. Aditya finds that the killer is his school mate Vishnu. He tries to investigate the motive behind these murders trying to find out who exactly Vishnu is and why he is committing these gruesome murders.

This movie is Nani’s 25 th film. Nani steals the show. He is the life and soul of this movie. His dialogue delivery and performance are amazing. His character is shown as a psycho killer and the seriousness in his mannerism and dialogue delivery definitely needs a special mention.  Sudheer Babu as a cop perfectly fits to the role and proves yet again his acting skills. The movie goes with a serious pace. We get to see Nani in a new avatar with negative shade in the character. One must say both have proven their acting skills in the most commendable manner. Nivetha Thomas acting was impressive as a wannabe crime novelist. The second lead actress Aditi Rao Hydari, though is seen only in the second half of the film, had an important role in the story. Supporting actors Vennela Kishore, Tanikella Bharani did their parts well.

Screenplay and cinematography were commendable. In action thriller movies BGM plays a major role. BGM by Thaman was perfect which keeps the pace with the story and the mood of the film. Songs are good. Amit Trivedi has given good soundtracks to the movie few of which have become viral on social platforms and Youtube.

The film definitely holds the attention of the audience. V is an action thriller movie. The film is definitely worth watching.

Movie Review: V

Article by Satya B Published by GulteDesk --> Published on: 1:47 am, 5 September 2020

Nani V Review

Amazon   |   Thriller   |   05-09-2020

Cast - Nani, Sudheer Babu, Nivetha Thomas, Aditi Rao Hydari and others

Director - Indraganti Mohana Krishna

Producer - Raju, Sirish, Harshith Reddy

Banner - Sri Venkateswara Creations

Music - Amit Trivedi

V is the first big movie to opt for OTT release as the theaters remained closed during the pandemic. There were a lot of expectations on the movie with Nani and Sudheer Babu playing the leads and a talented filmmaker Mohana Krishna at the helm. However, sadly, V turned out to be a disappointment.

What is it about?

DCP Aditya (Sudheer) is considered as the super cop by the media and public with an impeccable record. A brutal murder happens and the killer directly challenges Aditya. The killer goes on a killing spree and leaves his signature ‘V’ on every corpse. V aka Vishnu (Nani) also keeps calling Aditya from various unknown numbers and keep on challenging him by giving out the details about where the next murder would take place. Why is Vishnu killing everyone? What does Aditya find about him?

Performances:

Nani does his best to make V an engaging fare with his performance. The character is different from what he usually does, but it isn’t novel. Sudheer Babu gets as equal if not more footage as Nani and he makes sincere effort to do justice to his character. Aditi Rao Hydari appears in a guest role and Nivetha Thomas plays a character that doesn’t make any sense. Vennela Kishore, Naresh, and Tanikella Bharani are the notable actors among others.

Technicalities:

Mohana Krishna Indraganti’s movies are largely enjoyable in general. He is known for making light hearted entertainers. V is a crime thriller that is different from his previous films. V has an interesting plot, but it is poorly developed with many absurd and some downright silly scenes. Trying to present it in a commercial format backfired big time as V doesn’t even raise to the average mark at any point. Thaman’s background score is loud but captivating. Cinematography is good in action sequences. Editing is not up to the mark. Few dialogues are good. Production values are decent.

V is promoted as a different film, but turns out to be a routine fare. Anyone who saw the trailer would have guessed that Nani is killing people for a strong reason. And V reaches that point in the most predictable way possible. Nani’s introduction and the consequent challenge to Sudheer’s character seems interesting. But the narration falls flat with Sudheer’s character never seeming to be potential enough to stop Nani from killing the next person.

Sudheer’s romance track with Nivetha Thomas only made his character weaker and appear aimless. Nani doesn’t have much to do besides killing people using different techniques. Hence, the director inserted a couple of comedy scenes in between and Nani had fun doing those. The actual idea of the film is to present it as a cat and mouse game, but it never gets exciting as Nani is always exactly one step ahead of Sudheer.

The predictability of Nani’s backstory is the biggest drawback of V. Director Indraganti Mohana Krishna comes up with a poorly written back story that is neither engaging nor emotional. The army episode is thrown in just to make the killer’s character authentic for being one step ahead of the cops. There are many movies where the hero does crime to bring bad people to justice and a sincere cop trying to stop him.

Nani has been picking good scripts lately, but V has nothing new on any front. He is presented like a typical action hero, though. He did his best despite the shortcomings. OTT release is like a blessing in disguise for V as it doesn’t have enough goods to become a winner at the box office.

Bottom Line: Dull and Flat!

Rating: 2.5/5

V Movie Review: Nani & Sudheer Babu’s Cop & Killer Chase Is Engaging In Parts But Highly Predictable

V is a story we all have seen and can predict..

V Movie Review: Nani & Sudheer Babu's Cop & Killer Chase Is Engaging In Parts But Highly Predictable

What’s Good: NANI!

What’s Bad: We have already seen this.

Loo Break: Not when you know Nani is about to take over the screen.

Watch or Not?: If the age-old concept of cop and mysterious killer chase still excites you, go in, V is made for you. And in case of a Nani fan, this character is a reason added to love his craft more.

A psycho/serial killer is on the loose (Nani); his identity is V, nothing more. He challenges the mighty and desirable cop of the town Adithya (Sudheer Babu). The cat and mouse chase begins, and the story unfolds.

V Movie Review: Nani & Sudheer Babu's Cop & Killer Chase Is Engaging In Parts But Highly Predictable

V Movie Movie Review: Script Analysis

The movie opens up in a riot, Sudheer’s Aditya takes down the baddies and goes shirtless while doing the same. The very first 5 minutes are enough to tell that this isn’t an everyday cop story. Adithya is rather more of a Bollywood cop. Chiselled body, loved personality, on the cover of magazines, more of an influencer type. So Mohana Krishna Indraganti, who has written and directed this drama, tells you to have the suspension of disbelief.

Coming to the complete conflict, the trailer was enough insight to understand that this is a good guy bad guy drama and a chase that leads to thrills. So when we are already aware of the dynamics, what matters is why. That is where the script falters.

Not that cop and killer is a bad idea to make even after so many years. But making it with the same grammar and the already seen storyline is. V for the significant part of it is Bollywood’s Ek Villain meets Raman Raghav 2.0. watch it to understand why I said that.

While I have mentioned Raman Raghav 2.0, V does get into the zone. The psychic of a killer is explored on the surface. There is even a conversation between the ‘good guy’ and the ‘bad guy’. But a more detailed journey into that dynamic which says we are the same versions taking the different paths would have made for a more engaging watch.

PS: My examples are Bollywood because V gets the same treatment.

V Movie Movie Review: Star Performance

It is a risky path to walk when the antagonist is the hero of the film, and Nani understands that. The actor seems to have researched and gotten into his character with finesse. The best part is that he isn’t mimicking any stereotype of a psycho killer. He has made his version, that is mad till a degree but highly intelligent for his good.

Sudheer Babu as Adithya the glamorised cop does as he is directed to. But at the scripting level, Nani gets to showcase a broad and robust range, whereas Sudheer’s Adithya falls flat in this department.

Nivetha Thomas, who gets a harmless character, plays the chirpy girl quite lovely, but the writing doesn’t take her ahead of that. Aditi Rao Hydari in an extended appearance looks ethereal but acts just like we have seen her in the past few films.

V Movie Movie Review: Direction, Music

Mohana Krishna Indraganti, who is the writer as well as a director, is highly inspired by the dramatics of thrillers. The filmmaker unapologetically adds drama in the scene, and it does make for a good watch for the fans of the genre. But, only dramatics don’t make good entertaining thrillers. He manages to translate his on paper material to the screen as expected, but it is all predictable.

Music by S Thaman and Amit Trivedi is good for the time being. But I am not sure about the shelve life of it. Cinematography by P.G. Vinda is a plus as it adds a lot to the movie-watching experience. His use of lights, camera placement, focus, everything is enjoyable.

V Movie Movie Review: The Last Word

V is a story we all have seen and can predict. So in case, you plan to watch it, watch it for entertainment and have the suspension of disbelief just like we had watched the late 2000s police dramas.

  6. 'V' Movie Review: Regular Revenge

    To be fair, "V" begins well and holds interest thanks to Nani's acting. Director Indraganti should have focused on the latter part of the story. He also has used Telugu movie references like K Raghavendra Rao, Boyapati, and other movie making styles to elicit humor, which is fine but the investigation scenes and the clues are so formulaic.

    The entire drama revolves around the battle of egos between these two characters, played by Nani and Sudheer Babu, and who is going to emerge as the winner. So far, so good. But then, the biggest villain of the film is the world and the characters that inhabit it. The story itself feels like a watered down version of an FBI manhunt operation ...

    With movies like V, it's the big reveal in the second half that has to be breathtaking.Given writer-director Mohankrishna Indraganti's track record (read Gentleman, whose second half was quite engaging), it was but natural to expect that V, his most expensive and apparently first masala film, would deliver nothing less than a sucker punch.Far from it, the film makes do with a damp squib of a ...
