Swag

The movie is very good. The second half is a bit slow and uninteresting but overall the movie is a good attempt.

Shri Vishnu has done Lifetime Award winning acting. He has done very well in total 5 roles.

Meera Jasmin garu has to say Chomeback with this movie. Even if this character is not present in the climax, the nose job gives a lot of impact to that character. Rituvarma nice good job. Rest of the actors have done well in their characters.

The point taken by director Harshit Goli is well known but dealt very well. That does not mean that there are no mistakes. They do not appear until the climax. But the flashback is a bit confusing. It seems that it is not clear.

Message by the movie and presentation of them movie is very good. But acting is top notch by Sri vishnu garu . I have no words to say what a talent he got. I got mesmerized by the transgender role. He literally looked like a goddess to me in his acting. I wish you next level movies for your career . Wanted to meet you in person if allowed. I am big fan of Nani Surya and sethupathi garu . Now you are on the same list . But this movie your acting is equivalent to Kamal sir. What a versatility . Lot of wishes for your work and dedication for each role in movie. I wish u get all awards for this tremendous work. Thanks for such a great movie.

Look man , I go to movies for pure entertainment. The film if its has strong story and is providing relaxation is comparatively good than the one which is more technical or rich in cinematic values for me . This film has been fairly good in terms of the comedy it provides and the story line. It failed to remain consistent but it is okay because the director has clearly planned something new for the audience with this film. The actors were good , but the female leads seemed to have no screen presence at all except for Meera Jasmine mam. Few stories like the ones between Meera - Vishnu and Ritu-Vishnu seem to be written brilliantly and executed well on the screen too, while the ones like Vishnu-Daksha seem to provide enough laughs . The issue arrives in the later half of the movie where the film becomes a lecture giving us classes on Gay rights and honestly man , I just wanted to watch a film . Overall , the honest comedy and few engaging stories are what make this film a good one and the lecturing lets this film down.

Overall the film felt like a live play where actors want to give their best and even story is good, but the whole thing still seems off.

This film is a good example in which a good amount of effort went into writing the story but other areas of bringing it to the celluloid were done unenthusiastically including dialogues, direction and screenplay.

While watching, it was evident that the actors were trying to give it their best shot, but still the final result felt artificial. It could have been due to the direction or screenplay. Editing felt very abrupt at many places. Music was below average. Production design for the historical part involving castles was good.

It's good to communicate your ideas through a cinema, but what if the cinema itself ends up as a 2.5 hr long social commentary? That's exactly Swag is all about.

Director Hasith Goli deserves a pat on the back for coming with such a noble intention, but the execution was far from satisfactory. If viewed as a cinema, 1st half is a crashing bore, with literally so much going on the screen without any impact. But the interval makes us stick to the narrative. The entire second half becomes preachy, contrary to what they have promoted. One particular episode stands out, but rest of the movie isn't upto the mark.

Credit to Sree Vishnu for donning multiple getups, although one role stands out, rest all felt as a gimmicks, thanks to the flat writing. Rest of the cast did what they were given.

Technically, the movie is basic, BGM by Vivek Sagar is fine, editing makes sure proceedings aren't confusing, cinematography is okayish.

At the end, when viewed as a cinema, SWAG disappoints, but can watch it once for its intentions.
