Salaar: Teil 1: Ceasefire

Action movies have become excessively exaggerated in Indian cinema lately. Prabhas, known for his roles post-Bahubali, seems to be stuck in a rut with repetitive movies where he remains stationary, only altering the planet's rotation. This particular film features a dozen entry scenes, with Prabhas engaging in fights without moving from a single spot, resulting in hundreds of people being chopped down. The movie appears to be heavily inspired by Game of Thrones but executed poorly, mirroring the constant shifts in the storyline.

The main lead in the film resembles a mere model, standing stoically and striking poses every 5-10 minutes. The movie lacks substance, presenting a mindless and directionless action spectacle where everything seems to spiral out of control. Unfortunately, there's a sequel on the horizon, much to the dismay of the audience. It's advisable to steer clear of this film at all costs to save yourself from disappointment.

This time Prashanth's magic didn't worked out. As KGF holds up to Prashanths narration style plus Yash acting levels, Salaar has lot of dependency only on Prabhas(REBEL STAR). Story wasn't quiet interesting but elevations about second part in the movie gets the attention. Children singing song+seeking help from God+then Hero fight scenes are completely outdated. If this kind of screenplay continues its no more mass instead it makes us bore and looks like a comic. Please don't do this Mr. Neel garu.

Just Prabhas makes the run time looks OK.

Prabhas entry to KHANSAR: 🔥bgm remind me something like i am watching a MARVEL hero.

For me personally the mother character role Eshwari garu performed little over-acting.

Though the movie stood like a feast for mass fanzzz still it doesn't has much potential as expected. When i first watched kgf-1 i didn't liked it because of over hype back voice twlling about Yash but it was ok since it's all about introduction to Hero character likewise i hv satisfaction level about S🔥L🔥🔥R part 1.

There is no reason or point to watch the first half. Movie can directly start from the 2nd half.

The pace of the film rises too fast in the 2nd half. This literally creates confusion in plot.

The direction and BGM is far better in KGF.

Being a pan-India and a broad film, the director must spend some time on VFX works. The VFX is too poor in some sequences, which will not make a quality film. Actors did a great work, the presence of PRABHAS filled the theatres.

A commercial film.

I am really waiting for the drama in khansar. The entire drama will be similar to GoT.

The overall verdict - Watch it to watch SALAAR 2.

Synopsis: The film invests significant time in world-building but falls short of captivating the audience within its narrative.

First half: The initial segment is rather mediocre. While the Interval block attempts to instill excitement, the audience struggles to connect with the story from the outset. The buildup feels somewhat excessive.

Second half: Exhaustive. A substantial twist at the end sets the stage for part 2, but its impact is diminished by a desire for the film to conclude. The prolonged buildup doesn't adequately match the actual scenes, resulting in a sense of loud anticipation that one wishes to end. Trimming 30 minutes from the 3-hour runtime would have made it a more engaging watch.

Background music is subpar, excessively loud, creating an unwanted auditory experience. The songs merely exist without evoking much interest.

Final verdict: "Salaar" is a film worth exploring when time permits. It has its moments of attraction, but overall, it delivers a rather lackluster cinematic journey.

***Salaar Movie Review ***

Directed by Prashant Neel starring Rebel Star Prabhas in the lead. Also starring Prithviraj Sukumaran

Prashant Neel's KGF, this was the reason for watching Salaar & an expectation that there will be link of KGF and Salaar but the later is not there.

Coming to Salaar, the movie had given mass moments but it's kind feel of over injection of mass elements which creates a disinterest in watching.

Prabhas had given the best with his swag and the way he delivers the action but a viewer who watched Yash in KGF, the same goosebumps is not having when watching Prabhas in Salaar. The background music had been used extensively to elevate the mass sequences which clearly gives an indication that its intentionally made.

Prithviraj had given a decent performance.

The last 30 minutes filled with action was interesting but when deep driving in the second half, many times the screenplay had been accelerated thereby a lot feeling that something is not going as per it is required.

The core of the movie is similar to of KGF. It's about the POWER but Salaar had expressed in through the mode of friendship & violence..

There will be a lot which needs to be unboxed in Part so Part 1 is an above average flick for me.
