Arjun Reddy (2017)

Ok, I am lost here, saw this movie yesterday after all that hype and hungaama and I really don't get how this film is truly different and mind-blowing! Are people only talking about the characterisation, which I will agree is quite strong and unapologetic. Vijay Deverakonda lives and breathes into this role. He is soo natural, almost too natural making us wonder if he has the same off-screen personality as well, which is a bit scary.

Coming to the story, I am really not sure what the director wanted to convey. Did he want to tell us that it is bad being rude and acting on impulse .. and that such people strongly needs therapy?? I understand that Arjun Reddy has anger issues and acts impulsively, but it is soo stupid that his love interest, Preeti also does the same, where she was supposed to be the sane one. She gets married to some random dude, despite being totally in love with Arjun because he did not answer his phone for a single day due to a drug overdose!!!??? And this is what people are calling as a revolutionary cult classic!!!

The second half is full of his downward spiral of Arjun Reddy and it is tedious watching this! Despite all his doings, he suddenly has flashes of remorse, especially in front of the lawyers and this is soo unconvincing. The ending saves this film a bit but makes all his suffering almost pointless. At any moment, Preeti could have ended his suffering instead we get a sub-plot with a film star thrown in and also countless moments where Arjun Reddy almost gets to kick the bucket!

Really, all this could have been justifiable, if the conflict point between the two lovers was strong. Unfortunately, as I mentioned, it is the weakest aspect which brings the entire film down.

Fmovies: Any guy can relate to this movie right from starting to end. This movie gives a shot of a drug that gets injected slowly into your body and could take a while to come out of the hang over. I loved the pre- interval scene and the back ground music is just awesome. Vijay's performance is way beyond. Except kids, everyone else can watch this movie.

Wasted 3 hours after watching this. The hero thinks he can do anything and act like a complete psychopath and there will be no consequences. He is a DOCTOR for Christ's sake.

Arjun Reddy fmovies. The emotions in the love story are nothing more than kissing, and the word "baby". The protagonist always has some philosophy to cover up for the situation to prove that he is correct. The father/brother emotions are not sufficiently built. It would have been good if the brother characterization was built better, as to how he attempts to save his brother, or how the family would free him from drug addiction through showing of love. Overall, more of a story that dives deeper and deeper into tragedy. The boy is shown to be an excellent doctor. Even to excel in profession/academics, I believe a person would need to have a lot better self-control than what the protagonist seems to possess.

This movie glorifies drinks, drugs and an aggressive angry young man. This movie doesn't have any sense and in my opinion it's a very average movie like a country movie where locals are portrayed as big hero who drinks and does throw tantrums but around in a modern look. I hate this movie being rated too high for nothing.

Impressed after seeing this movies last night. I congratulate Debut director Sandeep choosing such the bold subject and the suitable artists. Another impressive thing is that there are no star kids acted in this movie, there are no star producers produced this movie. The story and narration is realistic and natural. Vijay Devarakonda mesmerized with his acting skills, body language and attitude shown as Arjun Reddy character, Congratulations and this is an award winning performance and your hard work. Background score of this movies is hilarious with respect to the screen play. Expecting more and more this kind of movies in Tollywood.
