Skanda: The Attacker

I am dissapointed actually..What i liked about this movie is emotional scenes,bgm and mass dialogues..What i dont like is too much gory violence not suitable for family audience,stretched fight scenes too much build up..The villains really make us angry but Rapo Makeover was worst i didnt like it look at all but his scenes were good..Akhanda was my movie of the year 2021 thanks to Balayya acting,Bgm,Songs and Great Directorial by Boyapati..Each frame and dialogues gave us goosebumps with packed dialogues even make enemies stumble..He tried same formula but sorry Rapo it didnt work out well hmm. Please give a proper comeback Rapo and Yes Sreeleela added beauty to movie which was plus..Akhanda 2 must be a comeback for Boyapati..

The whole movie just feels like a copy of Old movies of Boyapati.

There were many illogical scenes that made me cringe a bit...

WHY SREE LEELA?! She is just an overrated actress at this point...

RAM POTHINENI deserves better script than this trash.

The only good thing about this film was Ram.

THE BAD THINGS : Some of the songs were good, But most of the others were average or just bad.

Some of the scenes were too cringey, The Climax Twist was bad!

Ain't no way I'm gonna watch the Sequel of this film.

The plot felt the same as always.

The BGM was not that good.

SUMMARY: I would rate this movie 4/10 (1/5).

DO NOT WATCH THIS FILM unless you want to torcher yourself for 3 hours.

Boyapati's Paruvu lost and found story where every character, positive or negative screams about it throughout. 2 states CMs are after each other's throat as one's son eloped with the other's daughter. So one has sent men to kill the CM and his, retrieve the daughter in return. Meanwhile, enters Bhaskar Raju with his own mission and at times enters Skanda to kill a bunch. Both of whom are directly targeting the CMs. There is also a businessman accused of murder and his daughter held hostage to force him to stay in prison. How are all these people related and will that paruvu be found infact whose paruvu will be found, forms rest of the story.

It's mindless screenplay and action scenes from the word go with Boyapati giving no respite to his audience. The hero's entry happens late so the supporting characters are introduced first followed by the whole cribbing about losing daughter/paruvu. It simply doesn't make any sense no matter how loud the characters shout in making any sense. It's random set of scenes stitched together without any semblance. It simply gets dragged on till an explosive climax giving a meh twist.

If one hoped for a flashback to make sense which is always the case with all Boyapati films and elevate the stronger lookalike, it is not delivered here. Even if the flashback was silly, there was a chance of saving this mess a little with more clarity to the character of Skanda when he is a lookalike to Bhaskar Raju yet not related to him. Having the film titled as Skanda and not focus the film on this character yet show the arrogance to announce Skanda 2 is nothing but a huge blunder from Boyapati Srinu. There is no point talking about performances, the dialogues too are plain silly and the over the top action scenes lack imagination. Skanda simply ends up as a worst film and that's about it. To be or not to be, says Skanda and one shouldn't wonder why.

"Skanda," directed by Boyapati Srinu, who previously helmed the successful "Akhanda" with Balayya Babu, falls short of expectations. The film follows a routine Telugu storyline, offering nothing fresh or innovative.

One of the film's glaring flaws is its songs and their placements, which are poorly executed, significantly contributing to its downfall. The music by Thaman, known for his high DJ sounds, disappoints once again.

Ram Pothineni does his best in the hero role, especially in portraying a rugged character, but the lack of a compelling storyline and supporting elements hinders his performance.

Sree Leela's presence in the film seems unnecessary, as there's no clear reason for her character's inclusion.

The first half of the movie is relatively better than the second half, which struggles to maintain the audience's interest.

The film hints at a sequel, but given the quality of this installment, it's safe to say that we don't need a "Skanda 2."

The action sequences lack the over-the-top physics typical of Boyapati's older films, which may disappoint fans of his style.

If you're still interested in watching "Skanda," it might be a better choice to do so through an OTT platform, as it fails to live up to the standards set by Boyapati's previous work in "Akhanda."

Seriously director is bit educated may be. Just earlier very late movies have bit realistic or good... this is entirely director imaginary fantasy movie bluffed CM positions 🤣🤣.

What a movie ..what a director.. please don't show this movie as blockbuster and to other states and region's... i love telugu and Telugu people.. don't want criticism or make fun of them...

Seriously did this film is a hit. Why to choose this kind of comedy, fantasy content which cannot be related in any way.

Thousands of guns ,bullets cannot harm single person. Where a person can defeat entire battalion, forces every thing... please educated directors don't make fun of us ...
