ONE Movie Review

Probably one of the most over-hyped, anticipated movie of the year 2014, and since it was the first big name in 2014, people expected a lot and the value of disappointment varies from person to person.

Watching the trailer, one would expect it to be another of those typical, stereotyped Telugu movie with a super star(which i thought it would be) but trust me its different, although different doesn't translate into better or good but Sukumar has taken a totally different take- no comedy, no crowd-wowing punch lines, no chemistry, no physics defying stunts, no unnatural romantic songs, no cheesy stuff but a strong, deep, emotional story which a single director failed partially to deliver.

The starting was usual, the kind of entry every tollywood actor would give but then starts the 'different' part of the movie and continued till the interval, it was so different that one would doubt one's own presence at that point of time. The director was unsuccessful in keeping the movie going in an orderly, non-boring fashion until he pulled back the audience with the interval twist.(If he hadn't done that, i would have left the theater)

After the interval he keeps you in the movie, and makes you think, think a lot(which is not usual in 'Telugu' movies). At a point of time, you will come to a conclusion that the movie is over, but he still pulls out some more tricks. And the ending it was perfect, ended at point which will not make you say 'that's it?'

Amazing performance by Mahesh, undoubtedly the best of his career so far.Brilliant cinematography, tollywood has really stepped it up and some really really cool dance moves combined with a twisty tale, its an unusual combination. This wont be a super-hit one, because its not a family-entertainer two, its not a mass entertainer either but, it attracts the people who want something new, something interesting, something 'out-of-the-box' and Sukumar has definitely started the trend.

Huge respect to Sukumar, who has taken the risk of stepping out of the 'stereotype' and creating a new hope for 'better' Telugu movies.

Well, my Rating: hmm.. it would be 8/10 for the new trend.

This is the first movie, I am writing a review, I may not be good at this. So please apologise.

I am from Tamilnadu. Though I watched many telugu movies, this is the first one I watched in theatre. It was a completely different story from what I had expected.

Technically, the movie is brilliant. Unlike most of the action packed telugu movies, the first half doesn't end in a fight which I expected. Although, the fight was there, but the pre-interval scene is excellent. Kudos to the director Sukumar. He made the audiences guessing till the end. This is one of the best performances(even the best) from Mahesh Babu.

Kriti Sanon does a good job in the film. But she doesn't have much scope in second half. Though the second half is bit dragging, the movie becomes pacy after the prison scene.

I recommend every movie lovers should watch the film.

one tries to be too ambiguous with the kind of plot it has and was true to the point that it submerges into the heads of the class audience having a good rapport with the Hollywood kind of stuff.coming to the movie the story is all about a rock star who experiences a psychological disorder and its all about chasing the mystery that he experiences from childhood. and all the story is about how he chases it and knows about his parents. Though, the story is simple on like what makes it different is the screenplay which was explored in a fashion never before in Indian film industry. The first half is though illogical in some senses all you an watch out for is the second where in you are all set in the mood by some exciting interval episode, and the movie though is slightly dragged its sukumars way of treatment its a perfect watch , it can be confusing but all in all the emotions leave out a wonderful feel. Its not for normal audience but a wonderful craft for movie lovers. Dsp bckrgrnd score is an asset and is dop.

if you are a regular telugu movie fan....u will never develop yourself......It is a complete different movie and just rocking... mahesh performance was awesome and overall movie was a top class......those who want to watch a different telugu film apart from regular films....1- NENOKKADINE is the best choice i recommend.....Frankly speaking i enjoyed the film a lot .. Kriti sanon plays the role of journalist who was perfectly apt for the character The movie contains a lot of twists which makes the film more interesting.... Mahesh babu dances are the best so far.... songs are upto d mark....

1 nenokkadine is a movie which has been making the headlines since the release of its first and second teasers. the director and other crew members were saying this will be a different movie and mahesh babu himself said that this will be one of his best films .

coming to the movie , it starts with a song which has become quite popular by now in the youth(WHO R U) . the way the hero's condition was explained was not satisfying enough but mahesh carried the first half on his shoulders with some good acting and killer looks . he has become lean and fit , looks quite energetic in the movie. comedy is not very much part of the script but the inline comedy between the scenes was fair enough . the romance parts at the beach and other places was good.

the interval was just superb with the twist included and mahesh was so very good in that scene .

the second half picks up pace from where it left and this is where the audience gets to know the actual story of the film . the action scenes in the second half are breathtaking and every scene is a visual delight.

mahesh babu was excellent in the film with his own style and looks in the movie

kriti sanon - not a popular name till now but her acting skills are very good . A promising actress with nice looks .

all the other casting members made their roles look good enough .

positives -

mahesh babu ( from dressing styles to acting ) the action sequences the screenplay the plot twists music and BGM by devi sri prasad

negatives -

less entertainment factor slow narration not much scope for a heroine in this movie

overall one of the best film of mahesh babu and a different storyline altogether .

a must watch if you are a movie lover and are quite bored of the regular mass masala movies in the Telugu film industry.

hats off to mahesh babu for choosing such a different script .
