King of Kotha

It's a pity that Malayalam movies are being overly influenced by Tamil/Telugu films. Amongst movies from the south, Malyalam movies are held in high regards even by Bollywood for their superior stories & acting. Then you get these kind of movies that brings down the overall standard. The malayalee audience is far more cranial so they can discern quality from mass drivel. Now to talk about Dulquer Salmaan. He is a good actor in his own rights, given a good story. This kind of genre is not suited for him at all as he does not have the commanding on screen presence and physique that Mammotty has. Even with the facial beard and all he still has the urban boy soft look and not very convincing as a badass. So whilst experimenting with various roles, he should pick only ones that suits his personality. The story was kind of flat and one dimensional with no sidebar to it so it got boring after awhile. No comedy content to relieve the tension either. Due to the limited role you'll barely notice Shammi Thilakan, which is a shame. The bad guy seemed to have an unlimited stock of henchmen in his closet and that was an irritant to the watcher. The slow motion fights weren't too bad but that alone cannot hold the attention of the audience for long. The movie did not have the content to drag it for nearly 3 hours, maybe 2 hours 15 minutes at most. The ending suggested there could be a sequel, I certainly hope not, considering the first part was declared a flop.

I am a diehard fan of DQ. But honestly I am saying that it's not boring and lag movie. But it's most of the scenes are predictable and time is too much. But the making of abhilash sir and bgm of jakes sir,songs by dabzee and asal sir was wonderful. And action of DQ was awesome. Mainly the second part is more better as raju madrassi. Anyway I also like shabeer sir as villain. Anyway one thing I wanted to say is that don't degrade any film. It cames to low level film due to the degrading happened by the first show. Otherwise it will run for more days than this. I don't think it's that much bad. It's anyway best to watch for one time for those who think it's bad by the words of others. If u watch it one time u will understand that.

Kinguuu...! Kinguuu...!

What a screen presence!

First one hour was top class, went down a bit later. Looked like it's picking up in the second half but again it went down. Elevations are too good but felt like it had more potential. Could've been better. The BGM was top notch. Throughout the second half I was thinking that it would've been ultimate if they showed the story of Raju Madrasi also atleast for 15-20 mins. But they kept it for the second part.

Mahanati, Charlie ( One of my all time favourites ), SitaRamam ( One of my all time favourites ), Didn't realise that I've become DQ fan...

DQ screen presence was awesome however the script was very weak. 2nd half was too lagging. I kept looking the time, why is not getting over. When you do a pan indian release expecially a south indian movie people expect a minimum quality to the script. I wonder if Abhilash showed the script to his dad just to take a opinion.

I couldn't also stop noticing Gokul Suresh was only in police uniform entire 2nd half and his looks remind you of old Suresh Gopi. Music and bgm were top notch. Aishwarya lakshmi was wasted. Soubin was hardly in the movie for 5 minutes, either way that is OK because he can can really annoying with his stereotype acting.

Abhilash you had all the right ingredients just you dint do right. Anyway long way for you to go and do things right next time.

Just an Average movie. But as compared to the tamil movie BEAST this is far better.

This is a Drama, Crime movie so some people may feel lag while watching. As a film lover I didnt feel any big lag in it. Way of presenting the story is very bad. Story is very common. Second half is really boring. I feel too much violence from the hero in this movie to portray him as a deadly killer and to get more claps (failed). In my opinion that can make in a different way. Watched in an old English movie villain killed his enemies with just throwing a Pen or Playing Card without direct fight.

BGM, Fight scene, Acting and Camera are amazing. Really appreciate it. This is the first DQ movie I dont like, all other movies from DQ are amazing. Still remembering Lalu, Charlie, Faizy etc. Expected an action story like KALI, KAMMATTIPPADAM, SECOND SHOW etc. Ie; People should remember the story and Hero. Hero should make an impact or attachment (connection) in the viewers mind. Eg. Rocky Bhai and Adheera in KGF, Kattappa in Bahubali, Pushpa, or RAM in SEETHARAMAM, If they are targetting pan India.

Overall - watch and forget movie.
