Jack

What do you get when you bring together atrocious action directionless direction, and a pointless meaningless script no points for guessing

You get the telugu movie 'Jack'

I am a movie buff, and over the decades have sat through very mediocre stuff being passed off as cinema, but the current crop of filmmakers make the bad movies of the yesteryears seem good in comparison

i couldn't sit through 20 minutes of the 'movie' as i had developed a migraine

watch at your own risk of developing dis-taste and disliking for the movies as a genre of entertainment

I am still astounded and dumbfounded at how these movie scripts and ideas get funded in the first place.

Jack (2025) is a Telugu film that may not have hit the mark at the box office, but for some viewers like me, it still offers an enjoyable ride - mainly because of its unique central character and a performance that stands out.

Siddhu Jonnalagadda shines in his role as Pablo Neruda alias "Jack", a passionate R&AW aspirant caught between ambition, identity, and chaos. His portrayal brings a certain charisma and unpredictability to the film that keeps you invested, even when the narrative dips.

The story itself is above average - not groundbreaking, but serviceable. It has enough intrigue and character moments to hold your attention, even if it doesn't always deliver on its potential. The pacing is uneven at times, and some subplots feel undercooked. However, it's Siddhu's energy and screen presence that glue the film together.

Unfortunately, Jack has suffered from a wave of negative reviews and didn't do well commercially, which is disappointing. While it's far from perfect, it's not entirely deserving of the harsh criticism either. The movie has flaws, yes - but also heart.

Verdict: Jack may not be for everyone, but if you appreciate strong performances and are open to a slightly offbeat, character-driven story, it's worth a watch.

They try to give rollercoaster of emotions but it failed. Story was good but some changes had to made and could present with much better screenplay some characters were unwanted and irritating like detective girl and she was getting into trouble again and again also raw portrayed in wrong way they should have used other name for agency and at every point it wasn't feeling comedy movie also unserious...

What did I just watch? Jack turned out to be both hilarious and surprisingly serious in its storytelling-but in the best possible way. It's the kind of movie you can enjoy without overthinking-just sit back, switch off your brain, and have a good time.

Sure, I know this isn't how real spy agencies operate, but that didn't stop it from being a whole lot of fun. Definitely give it a go-you won't regret it. In a time when so many films are going all-in on gore, extreme violence, deep growling voices, and endlessly dark themes, Jack stands out by being the complete opposite, which makes it such a refreshing watch.

Now, I will say, the techniques shown in the movie probably shouldn't be demonstrated so clearly-because if someone actually tried them in real life, it could be risky. Still... I can't lie, the way they pulled it off was brilliant, and you'll know exactly what I mean once you see it.

I thought Siddhu would pull off another decent hit, but was truly disappointed.

Old, predictable story. Good actors like Siddhu, Prakash Raj have been completely wasted. About the female lead - not sure what purpose the role actually added to the movie - I mean if you claim yourself to be a private eye, then you should be really dumb with the kind of actions that the role was made to do!!! The writers have to be flogged for writing such a role.

Comedy was very sad. A few laughs but overall pretty sad comedy. I went to watch this movie not expecting any logic or rationale but for pure comedy. Sad to say this movie just did not meet even basic expectations.

I'm not sure why such talented technicians, movie makers come up with such scripts. They have to understand that new age audience have been served such brilliant content that movies like these standout as sore thumbs.
