Chaari 111

Johnny English is a 2003 movie which acted as the source of this movie. This is an almost scene to scene copy of that movie. So its not even remotely original.

Is it funny? A little bit. Why is it less funny than the original = because the original was straight face comedy, while this is an over exaggerated mannerisms over the top slapstick attempt at the comedy genre.

Its entertaining, and has to be watched with -100% brain activity, and the main character casting was quite on point. Vennela Kishore suits this role 100% and happy to see him get the main lead finally. Murali as usual fits the serious and straight-as-an-arrow boss role.

The film's first half starts with an effective establishment of Rudranetra team. After that, it gets into comical mode with the introduction of the lead character...Both the first half and second half have many comedy scenes, while the latter has a slight touch of drama and suspense keeps you entertained though the plot is predictable...

Vennela Kishore tried to get into the skin of the character and elevated a few sequences with his comic timing...His swag & spontaneous oneliners are indeed a huge stress busters giving a "JHONNY ENGLISH" flavour to the flick...Murali Sharma gets the meatiest role in the film and he creates an impact. Samyukta Vishwanathan plays the female lead and she ably supports Vennela Kishore...

Satya, the other comedian, is also superb. His chemistry and scenes with Vennela Kishore are a laugh riot while Taubothu Ramesh is quite good as Vennela Kishore's sidekick...

The background score of Chaari 11 is impressive and the background score by Simon King is solid and elevates the film to another level...Giving the animated texture to the opening credits & flash back portions is indeed a clever move by the director...

Overall the first half is hilarious, the second half is pale. Vennela Kishore is superb and if you like his style of comedy, give the film a shot which is a worthy OTT product.

It is a cheap copy of several hollywood films.

The final twist and ending sequence is ripped off from The Dark Knight Rises, and they look ridiculously bad. They also forced a Khaidi parody scenes in the climax.

Heroine is the saving grace throughout the movie because her acting is decent and she's very attractive. Although she's either serious or looks worried most of the time, she still manages to look hot and seductive. Hope she gets more roles.

Vennela Kishore's character doesn't really evoke laughter. The director was probably going for "so bad that it's actually funny" type of comedy, but they didn't quite reach that level of bad, so ultimately most scenes feel only stupid, not funny.

Watch it if you don't have anything else to watch.
