Game Changer

I went to this movie with no expectations and it is not outright bad as his previous movie, Indian 2. The flashback episode is decent, the cat and mouse game between Ram and Mopidevi is engaging to some extent, interval block was interesting.

The movie starts with a hint in the beginning that it's a commercial entertainer supposed to be out 30 years ago. I hate having a mass fight sequence followed by an introduction song. Shankar could have used this time to establish the plot line.

Dance numbers are untimely. Can't even mention about the counless physics defying fight sequences and brainless cringe scenes. It is silly that Ram had to address his anger issues so that he can channel anger to become IPS officer.

It's worth watching once in OTT when it's available.

'Game Changer' is a very ordinary political commercial entertainer that is carried completely by Ram Charan's performance and Thaman's BGM at times.

The first half is pretty mediocre with a boring love track and ineffective comedy but gets interesting leading up to the interval. The second half starts on superb note with a 20 minute flashback that reminds us of Vintage Shankar. However, after this portion, it again turns back into a run of the mill political movie that turns melodramatic and tiring towards the end.

The film uses similar tropes to many political movies in the past which gives it an outdated and tiring feel at times. The heart and soul of the film is a 20 minute flashback. RC is absolutely superb as Appana in this flash back and will remain as another feather in his cap. The rest of RCs character is a regular IAS role that is a cakewalk for him. Thaman's music is an asset for the film whenever it doesn't enter the overly loud mode. The production values are good especially in the songs.

This is easily better than Indian 2, however, it can't be considered as a comeback for Shankar as his writing and taking is below par and is completely carried by the music and Charan. Just Ok!

Rating: 5/10.

One Time watchable movie. Routine story line. Story is predictable .Movie is not worthy watching in theatres....i recommend all the fans don't go for this movie. Over all Ram Charan acting is too good But the Shanker the Way taking the movie story line is not good . Movie got so many Boring lines .Screen play is not good .Kiara advani and Ram Charan screen presence is not good in the movie. Nothing worked out for this movie. Thaman Background music is good . I strongly recommend all the fans don't go and watch the movie in the theatres. No cinematic Experience.iam telling Shanker to retire from the movies..

I am a fan of the director and even I couldn't bear the poorly made movie. Looks like they sat together the night before the shooting started and put together a story and script in a rush. No comedy and music was also not something we get in a Shankar movie. It also felt like watching a few of Shankar's old movies like Mudhalvan, Indian and Anniyan. Ram Charan is the only saving grace. It's a shocker that they wasted Sunil. The volume was too loud and jarring and that part I am unsure if it was specific to my theater or the recording itself but was such. Also the scenes felt so disconnected. First movie where I didn't have a single laugh or didn't get emotional in any scene.

A director coasting on former glory meets an actor coasting on PR hype and you get GameChanger. Basically there is a faint whiff of a story which is presented as a series of meaningless but rich visuals . The songs that cost 1/4 the budget are so ill placed .There is a female lead whose purpose is unknown .So many elements which are serial level cringe - like how and why and where the heroes mother ends up . This marks the end of Shankar. Ramcharan escaped scrutiny over his ultra disaster acharya that came after rrrr but there is no escaping the rightful ridicule that comes his way for this self proclaimed global star ! AVOID in OTT also.
