Hebbuli

Went in to see the movie since IMDb ratings were quite high.

The main story had potential - with a nice initial suspense to it. However it was severely hampered with commercial additions - the lady, the comedian & songs. Movie went down a couple of notches whenever any of them appeared. Editing out those parts of the movie might have made it watchable.

What I liked about the movie : Good intensity by Sudeep, good background music & the suspense part of the story (initial 30 min or so).

Everything went downhill after that.

After the much hype and being on the list of most anticipated movie for weeks on IMDb, Hebbuli released with a bang on target. The movie had created a buzz with its teaser and make over of Sudeep for this role. This movie is a classic-commercial hitting the right chords of all type of audience with classic emotions and high voltage action sequences. Sudeep in the role of para commando has nailed it and proved his versatility as an actor and he has carried the whole movie on his shoulder. The music and songs are apt for the movie and is composed well. The cinematography is excellent too especially the sequences in the Kashmir area and in the songs. The expectation was that the screenplay should have been much tighter for this revenge story. The performance from other lead roles are appreciable and Ravichandran delivers good. The production values look commendable for a Kannada movie. Verdict: 10 out of 10. Hebbuli strikes the chords of audience with a classic-commercial entertainer with Sudeep carrying the entire movie on his shoulders.

Great acting by cast and kichcha is awesome as always,nice storyline filled with emotions and action....

Sudeep is undoubtedly the one leading the pack, looking his most stylish yet till date and giving a performance that makes you want to root for him. Amala Paul had a cute role for her Kannada debut and she shares a good chemistry with Sudeep. The three main antagonists, Ravi Kishan, P Ravi Shankar and Kabir Duhan Singh, justify their casting and do a good job. Chikkanna's comedy track, which is funny take on Vishnuvardhan's Bandhana, is worth a mention too.

If you don't want the typical masala entertainment and are looking for something that moves beyond the staple big hero potboilers then this is for you. Hebbuli cleverly integrates an important issue, while still retaining massy elements. Go watch this one, it will not fail to entertain you.

Just watched half of the movie. Not interesting at all. Cannot feel any sentiments at all. I dont feel sad wen the brother died..
