Felt like Watching Sairat with some changes and telugu language
Change of climax
DSP classic music.
There's nothing new in the film except the climax. Routine nibba nibbi love story. Performance of every actor is good. Music is enjoyable.
Overall a one time watch. Stop calling it a classic.
No over dramatizing scenes, neatly presented and good set up and pay offs, the routine concept with mentioned above points makes this good watch.
Debutants are good, Music was refreshing, feel feared of vijay sethupathi.

I'm not going to lie,but I had high expectations before I entered the theatre to watch Uppena. Mythri Movie Makers who've given some beautiful films in the past producing this,the amazing songs and most importantly Sukumar's assistant directing,I think it's fair to say I was expecting something better but Uppena tries to get there but it simply can't.
The romance is outdated and the storyline up till the climax is dragged out. The characters seem interesting but they become so involved in their love and you're left wondering if at any point you'd be able to know more about them separately.
Now it doesn't mean Uppena doesn't have its pros. The leads,especially Krithi Shetty do justice to their roles and Vijay Sethupathi as usual is nothing less than perfect. The visuals are pleasing and the music is probably the best thing about this film for me. Some dialogues are well written and so are a couple of scenes.
Now I know that people thought the climax was hard hitting and till an extent it is but by the time the twist comes ahead you've lost interest and have looked at your watch at least 5 times. If only the second half was tighter.
At the end of the day Uppena is like a good swim in the sea spoilt because of the rain.If you want a dose of 2000's romance and can sit through a slow second half,give this film a shot.

Routine Love story with extra twist and lover over lust things makes this movie watchable...
The cast and making is extraordinary.... The songs are another saving grace for the movie and flow...
Worth the watch...
