Race Gurram

Want to spent some time fully in entertainmant?? Then this is a recommended movie for you.

Race Gurram (Race Gurram) is an entertaining movie, if you enter the auditorium with a clear mindset that you are going to watch a comic film and not a movie which takes itself too seriously. The best part of the movie is it is the first time ever that a major telugu star has underplayed his role in the climax sequences and let comedian Brahamandam take center stage and letting character actor Rajeev Kanakala do something which is unthinkable in a telugu motion picture-nope no spoilers from me sorry.

Ram (Shaam) and Lakshman A.K.A Lucky (Allu Arjun) are brothers whose sibling rivalry is something which would put cain and abel to shame and give them a massive inferiority complex. Ram does everything better and is a successful police officer and Lucky does nothing worthwhile and lives off his brother and parents.

Lucky falls in love with Spandana (Sruthi Hassan-at her best) a girl with a terminator hangover and has a very good control on all emotions. Lucky changes her and makes her a lady version of himself and at this point Ram puts a spoke in their love wheel.

Lucky bays for revenge and does something which causes him to cross paths with Siva Reddy (Ravi Kissen) a rowdy sheeter turned politician. A showdown lands Siva Reddy in a hospital and he vows revenge on Lucky.

Apart from the sibling rivalry and Sruthi Hassan's characterization, the movie has nothing new to offer, but the way the screenplay works its way around the minor nitty gritties is what makes the movie interesting.

Allu Arjun plays the same tried and tested role to perfection and his "DEVUDA!" is good and is used in the right situations. He is excellent in the climax sequences and during the interval bang sequence.

Sruthi Hassan as Spandana is a treat to watch in the first half an hour of the movie-she is amazing in the bank robbery sequence and also gives us a glimpse of her tapori side in the "cinema choopistha mama" song. Shaam does the same boring act for the umpteenth time, sad to see such a good actor being typecast.

Saloni is cute with the telangana accent and gives out a good performance especially in the running sequence with Allu Arjun. Ravi Kissen does the same thing which all tollywood villains have been doing, yell and yell and then drop down dead.

It is Brahamanandam as Kill Bill Pandey who actually steals the show-his scene with Siva Reddy is the best in the mo vie-especially the dig at Prabhas.

Music by Thaman is strangely bad for an Allu Arjun movie, apart from the cinema choopistha song-none of the songs are good on the ears. Direction by Surender Reddy is good, but I wish the screenplay could make up its mind whether it wanted the movie to be an action thriller or a light action comedy.

Watch the movie for the laughs-----just don't take the movie too seriously-just walk in and expect Allu Arjun doing an Allari Naresh and you will love the movie

Time killing movie Amazing comedy with action &romance It's also best collection of Allu Arjun

"Race Gurram (Main Hoon Lucky - The Racer)" is an amazing mass masala Indian film that deserves to be watched at least once by everyone.

The action scenes are completely over the top and larger than life, while the emotions and feelings hit just the right notes.

For me, the biggest reason to love this film is the sense of nostalgia and excitement it creates. And of course-Allu Arjun, the ultimate aura farmer.

Ravi Kishan is outstanding as Shiva Reddy, delivering a performance that makes the rivalry between Shiva and Lucky both intense and entertaining. The supporting characters also add a lot of charm and energy to the story.

Overall: A highly entertaining ride full of action, drama, and mass moments. You should definitely give this movie a chance.

Right from the word go, I was cursing myself for coming to watch this movie. The family sentiment seemed contrived, acting too loud, romance illogical, and the list goes on. But surprisingly, after almost 3 hours, I left the theater satisfied (how is that even possible?).

Scripted and directed by Surender Reddy, Race Gurram starts off just like any other commercial Telugu movie, with phony sequences and loud acting. While the first half seemed dull with mediocre screenplay, Surender manages to pull half the later half exceedingly well. The overall direction though could have been much better.

On acting front, it's more or less a cake walk for Arjun. His body language is superb, and he performs with ease. But what needs mention is one performance: Brahmi a.k.a Kill Bill Pandey, take a bow! He is absolutely entertaining.

Overall, the screenplay in the second half, Bunny's strong screen presence and Bramhi come to the rescue in this mediocre film, and you walk out of the theater satisfied. So just for that, you can give it a watch.
