Kaatera

It's a come back film for darshan with his mind blowing screen presence. It narrates the 90s real incidents. Great acting by all the cast.its purely a kannada content and fresh content. Everybody should watch it to experience reality of life of farmers in 90s.

After a long time darshan worked with a good director and selected good script.

You can experience the mass elevation with extra added flavour like music by V. Harikishna. Mind-blowing bgm given by Hari Krishna.

You will never get bored until the end of the movie because of its well written script and well driven screenplay by Tharun Sudhir.

This movie is a FEAST for his fans and normal audience also gonna like it for sure. The plot is good and actors lived in their characters.

Darshan as an actor WON. His screen presence has lit the whole movie and has minimal buildup unlike few of his previous movies. Coming to story it has good content and direction wise tharun did his best. Dialogues are top notch🔥. Music director harikrishna had done great job and bgm is crazy in most of the scenes. This is not just a routine commercial drama. It has great story and great execution. Overall it's a good cinema and gives great theatrical experience.

The acting by all the cast of the movie is awesome n the look of darshan sir is at next level . Awesome direction by tarun sudhir sir the meaning and the way of presenting the message is awesome a must watch movies for everyone irrespective of their hero/fan base every person should watch it and it's a perfect family entertainment movie. The acting of the daughter of malashri mam the debut heroine in the movie Aradhana is mind blowing she didn't look like a new comer /fresher to the industry even for the single second in the movie n her dance steps n her moves were mind blowing n fantastic. The dailogues by Maasti sir is awesome. It's a award deserving movie #Dboss #darshan #Superdirection #Blockbuster #awesome #Superacting.

Skeletal remains of 107 unknown victims are found and the forensic team is on with their investigation to find out the truth behind that many deaths. Meantime, people of Bheemanahalli are donating their hard earned money to get their saviour Kaatera, released on parole to attend the village festival. There are forces that are against his release and with his parole granted, he is accompanied by a constable to be his escort. As they start their journey back to the village, Kaatera opens up about his past. Who is Kaatera? What crime did he commit to serve prison sentence and how did he became the saviour of an entire village, is revealed in the rest of the story along with those 107 skeletons.

It's been quite some time since Darshan gave a good film that not only was aimed at the fans but also entertain the neutral audience as well. The only director to pull that off currently is Tharun Sudhir. Their last offering Roberrt pleased the fans and this time Tharun has picked up a subject that makes Darshan the actor surrender to the script than have it entirely woven around his star image. It's a welcome to see him play a character and there are those well timed hero elevation scenes and fights, but this one is more story driven. The non-linear narrative is old school which again is Tharun Sudhir's forte and he delivers.

With an ensemble cast, it is also rare to see a top superstar sign such films dealing with the prevalant caste issues and merge it with the land reforms act to tackle the farmer's issue. Evil zamindars oppressing a village is a done to death story but when well told, it simply turns into an entertaining affair. While the love story drags with barely any chemistry and the glaring age gap, Tharun packs a punch whenever he shifts the focus to the main issues. There were 3 main action scenes and a short one, which more or less served their purpose to present Darshan the way his audience want to see him. Aradhana Ram tries and as it is her debut film, have to cut some slack for her earned attempt. The battalion of villains are pretty generic and it was good to see Vinod Alva. It take enough cinematic liberties, borrows ideas too but Tharun Sudhir with each film is just growing as a director, building his credibility and yes, Darshan - Tharun Sudhir has turned into this promising combo to look out for.

This movie got a lot of hype for no reason.

I started watching it on the hype and stopped it in between.

The story is really boring and the caste discrimination and derogatory dialogues are apparent.

The lead actor does not have any acting skills just exaggerated fighting scenes.

Most scenes are very obvious and one can anticipate what is coming in the story.

The music and cinematography are average.

Overall, I do not suggest to watch this movie because I stopped watching halfway through it.

The movie actors and producers should spend some more money on better music, cinematography and acting skills.
