Speedunnodu Movie Review
Storyline
Story is set in Rapthadu in
Anathapur. Shobhan (Sai Srinivas) is the son of Veerabhadrappa (Prakash Raj)
who spends away his life with friends. He goes to any extent for his friends, a
batch of five. Sobhan’s friend Giri goes after Vasanthi (Sonarika) and the
former tries to help him.
But in the process Vasanthi loves
Sobhan, who are children of rival groups from different villages. With this
love story being revealed to Vasanthi’s family, her father Rama Chandrappa (Rao
Ramesh) tries to marry her to Jagan (Kabir Singh Duhan).
How will Sobhan resolve all these
issues and what happens to the love story is the rest of Speedunnodu.
Artists Performances
Bellamkonda Sai Srinivas is impressive in his dances and fights,
and he even improves his diction compared to his earlier film. But he needs to
work on his expressions more. He however acted well in the climax action
episodes.
Sonarika is glamorous and did her role capably. Tamanna is superb
in her special song Bachelor Babu with stunning dance moves.
Tammana's special song gives relief to the audience with her superb
moves.
Prakash Raj is wasted in a poor role, while Rao Ramesh gets a regular character.
Srinivas Reddy, Posani and Prudhvi
were convincing while Kabir Singh Duhan attracts with his act.
Krishna Chaitanya performed well and others like Pavitra, Jhansi , Rama Prabhas, Vidyullekha filled
the screens.
Technicians Role
Sri Vasanth’s musical scores are
pretty ordinary, while the background score goes with the theme.
Cinematography is on top-botch
and every frame looked beautiful.
Gautham Raju’s editing could have
been better. At least 15 minutes could be trimmed down. Dialogues are decent.
Bheemaneni’s direction is okay
while the screenplay could have been better.
Production Values Goodwill Cinema
are grand.
Analysis
Bheemaneni Srinivas is known for
his successful remakes, and when he set his eyes on Sundarapandian, the
expectations are huge. Speedunnodu is based on concept of friendship and love;
however it failed to create the original version magic on screens.
The first half is packed with few
comedy scenes and punch dialogues between the friend’s gangs, while the small
yet predictable twists are unraveled as the story proceeds. Despite the routine
and predictable story, the original version had good screenplay and emotional
content that connected with the audiences. This is where Speedunnodu failed.
Director even failed to give justification to the friend’s characterizations in
the end.
The comedy fights and songs
(Tamanna’s item number) will appeal to the masses. Had he handled the emotional
drama of friendship and the bond well, Speedunnodu could have been a feel good
entertainer.
Finally
Speedunnodu- Lacked the needed
speed!
RATING 2.75/5
