EVOL: A Love Story in Reverse

Ram Yogi Velgapudi is clearly a man on a mission with EVOL: A Love Story in Reverse. He's out to shake up Telugu cinema, and boy, does he succeed. This film is like nothing you've ever seen before-at least, not in this part of the world. It's daring, it's bold, and it's determined to break every rule in the book. But does breaking the rules make for a good film? That's the question.

Visually, this movie is a stunner. The cinematography is absolutely gorgeous, with every shot carefully composed to perfection. The lighting is moody, the colors are rich, and the whole thing feels like a masterclass in technical filmmaking. Velgapudi's team has created a visual experience that's nothing short of breathtaking, and for that alone, the film deserves praise.

But when it comes to the story... well, that's another matter. The reverse narrative structure is interesting at first, but it quickly becomes frustrating. I get that Velgapudi is trying to do something different here, but the problem with breaking all the rules is that sometimes the rules are there for a reason. Watching a love story unfold in reverse is cool in theory, but in practice, it left me feeling disconnected from the characters and their emotions.

And yet, despite its flaws, I can't help but admire EVOL. Velgapudi is taking risks, and that's something Telugu cinema desperately needs. He's not afraid to push the boundaries, to challenge our expectations, and to create something truly unique. Even if the film doesn't always work, it's exciting to see a filmmaker willing to take such big swings.

So, is EVOL a perfect film? No. But is it an important one? Absolutely. If you're tired of the same old formulaic love stories, give this one a shot. It might not be for everyone, but it's definitely a film worth talking about.

This movie being rated 9.5 is a complete joke. It doesn't deserve even half a star. Everything about it is awful-the acting is laughably bad, the dialogue feels like it was written by a 5-year-old, and the story? Don't even get me started. It's an incoherent mess that drags on forever with no payoff. Every attempt at humor or emotion was so painfully cringy, I wanted to turn it off 10 minutes in. The directing is sloppy, the cinematography is bland, and the soundtrack is obnoxious. Honestly, I can't believe people are hyping this garbage. It's hands-down one of the worst movies I've ever seen. A total insult to anyone who values their time. Save yourself the agony and avoid this catastrophe at all costs.

Breaking Rules, Breaking Hearts, and... Breaking My Brain?" If I had a rupee for every rule Ram Yogi Velgapudi broke in EVOL: A Love Story in Reverse, I'd probably be richer than the producers who greenlit this wild ride. Let's be real: this film is more about making you scratch your head than actually feel anything about the love story it supposedly tells. But that's exactly why it works. Sometimes.

Technically, this film is a masterpiece. The visuals are stunning, like something out of a dream, or maybe a stylish nightmare. Every frame is composed with such precision that you almost forget the plot is unspooling backwards at a pace that feels like a fever dream. The camerawork is seductive, pulling you into a world that feels both familiar and alien. Bold content? Absolutely. Telugu cinema hasn't seen anything like this in years-if ever. We needed someone to break the mold, and Velgapudi took a sledgehammer to it.

But here's where I get a little sarcastic-because honestly, I'm impressed by how hard this film tries to be "different" without giving us a reason to care. Breaking the rules of screenplay structure? Yeah, that's cool... until you realize that breaking the rules doesn't automatically make your story profound. At some point, it just becomes an exercise in confusion.

Do I praise the film for trying to deconstruct love in the most non-linear, disorienting way possible? Sure. It's a gutsy move. But at the same time, the characters feel like little more than pawns in this grand experiment of "What if we told this backwards?" By the time the credits roll, I'm left wondering if the film was about love or just a showcase of Velgapudi's willingness to take risks that don't always pay off.

Still, props to the technical team. The sound design, the lighting, the way the film plays with time-it's all there, polished and pretty. So, should you watch it? If you're into films that challenge your patience and your perception of storytelling, then definitely. If you just want to enjoy a love story? Well, maybe you should look elsewhere.

This is a soft p*rn , the cameraman is for sure a p*rvert. They have tried their best to take shot of the female lead body from every angle. It's an erotic movie with a lame story. The acting is horrible, the story is very bad. At the end of the movie you will be scratching your head as to what happened, who actually died. The rating of this movie is fake so I'm writing this honest review here to save your time from watching this movie which is all about s*x, dru*gs, , couples being ok with cheating and a psycho lady which you will see moaning and showing as having orga*m/pleasure without any reason. At the end director remembered that he needs to add a les*ian scene so that was also added for no reason.

I watched this movie seeing the high rating on IMDB. But this is one of the worst movie i have ever seen in my life. Acting so bad that even Ekta Kapoor daily soaps feel better. Characters are immensely superficial. At many places, this movie seems so pretentious and cool just for the sake of it. Unnecessary weird camera angles, lighting so bad that every location feels like a cheap.shady bar. I am just amazed if all the 10 out of 10 ratings are paid bots. The non linear narration felt so boring as there were no information revealing agenda. Its just a wanna be cool amateur film. At best its a decent student film. Wasted 2 hours of my life. Highly not recommended.
