Ravanasura

Except for some controversial dialogues and predictable twists (and terribly weak screenplay), there wasn't anything particularly bad about this film. It is watchable but NOT at all a family friendly movie!

Suspense gets revealed too soon (in early 1st half, and after that there's no suspense left in the film) Till then we get to see funny mass moments and some songs. For those who strictly want suspense movie, this might be a big letdown.

Highlights:

1. Ravi Teja's subtle acting in a negative shade and his screen presence

2. Songs - Pyaar Lona Paagal was fantastic! Others were forgettable

Drawbacks: Big let down is the screenplay and direction.

1. Weak, Terrible, and Tiresome Screenplay. The Suspense was revealed too soon.

2. RT's character arc - lazy attempt by filmmakers here. They want the audience to love the hero, so they give him funny scenes. Then they want to show his evil side, too much that you start hating him. Then they try to justify it with a pale half baked revenge backstory.

3. Second half could've been faster. The backstory of Ravi Teja could've been shown partly in the first half and partly in 2nd half. This would've been much better imo.

Final Verdict: Not at all a family friendly film due to the direction, nor a good film (bcuz of bad screenplay) but it is a one time watchable massala film thanks to Ravi Teja, Jayaram, and the film's sound department.

I really liked the movie. The cast is very well utilized and portrayed. Story line is excellent. Parental guidance is definitely required. The motive is kept hidden and the utilization of key points of law is very good. All in all worth watching. I really liked the movie. The cast is very well utilized and portrayed.

The movie is fast paced and starts with Ravi Teja doing his usual action plus comedy, it swiftly morphs into Ravi Teja style romance and then the suspense builds up and you see Ravi Teja as never before. The pace never slackens and you see twist after twist after twist.

The only drawback is such a fast pace leads to some holes in the plot but overall there is a substantial plot compared to a usual Tollywood or Bollywood movie. The negative comments and low rating just reinforce it being not a run of the mill movie and a bold departure from usual goody goody theme into a darker world. Ravi Teja is the star but others also complement him well. Complements to the makers for departing from the norm.

Ravanasura attempts to make a bold statement with its intense narrative and ambitious storytelling. The film's strength lies in its audacious approach and the strong performances delivered by the cast. The lead actor's portrayal of the titular character is both compelling and layered, showcasing his ability to navigate a complex role with conviction.

However, the film struggles with several significant issues. Its length is a major drawback, as the prolonged runtime often feels excessive and contributes to a sense of drag. The narrative's attempt to evoke sympathy for the main character in the latter stages feels forced and unearned, given the extensive list of his transgressions. This shift in tone can be jarring, making it difficult to reconcile the character's past actions with the film's late attempts at redemption.

Overall, while Ravanasura shows bold ambition and features notable performances, its execution falters due to its excessive length and an inconsistent character arc. The film's attempt to balance intense drama with a sympathetic portrayal falls short, leaving it as a mixed experience rather than a fully satisfying one.
