I think, Baahubali 2 – The Conclusion has raised the standard
and level of Indian Cinema in terms of
Visual effects and the scale of the project and the
art of making historical cinema. The film portrays perfectly the ancient kingdoms of historic India. To me, the hero of the film is the director S.S. Rajamouli who made us believe in
the cinema once again. Baahubali
2-The conclusion has everything grand in it, the characters, the vision, the
story, the anger, The VFX effects, and the end.
Baahubali - The beginning was a milestone for Indian cinema, regarding size and VFX effects. There was incredible grip when the story was told,, the background score was powerful, and the cinematography was beautiful.
We must applaud the S.S.Rajamouli for his work as he has come up with a
stunning piece of cinema that lives up to the hype in all means and even
outshines the original in few parts like the depth of the story-line and a
smooth acceptable screenplay.
The Baahubali
part 2 is brilliantly directed and without
a doubt, a magnificent movie overall with a methodically convincing and sincere
story- line that grips the viewers by inviting them to be a part of the
Mahishmati kingdom for its run time of around two hours and forty-eight minutes.
The first half – is love track between
Anushka and Prabhas and it is well-scripted. In a
nutshell, the best thing about the
Conclusion is that it takes care of the subplots and contemplates well on the
inner battle and emotions of the two lead characters. ( Rana and Prabhas- The
warrior leads)
The way S.S. Rajamouli handled the answer
to the million dollar question "Why Kattappa Killed Baahubali?" was excellent.
The Rajasabha sequence when Parbhas kills the offender of Anushka and the
particular arrow fight sequence between the lead pair Anushka and Prabhas) were exceptional and the
highlight of the narrative.
One of the substantial points of the movie is the acting
by all the central characters, especially
Prabhas and Sathyaraj Anushka who had the lion share of the screen presence. Rana stood out as exceptional Villain though had limited opportunities. He portrayed
an authentic Villain who has no values
and hungry for power. One cannot ignore the strong lady performances from Shivgami/Ramya and Devsena/Anushka who handled their role with great dignity
and delivered a performance which raised a quality of the screenplay. Bijjaladeva
is like another version of Villain Gang, and he delivered
the selfish father very well. A minor role to Avanthika, but OK.
Action sequences, visual effects are the
ones which raise the bar of Indian cinema
and matches to the Hollywood. Cinematography VFX, are at another level. The art of storytelling by S. S, Rajamouli is amazing
as he creates a grand stage for our hero
for the final battle. This movie is a visual wonder.
However, If you look at negatives, then the
way romance has been handled in the first half,
and it could have been better. Few patchy graphic scenes make you feel this shouldn’t be part of the movie. The final
war could have been far better with more ideas. Sometimes you feel, storytelling has suffered a bit due to excessive
focus is on graphics. An example is - when
Prabhas is returning to his Kingdom with Anushka,
the audience feels they are watching an
animated movie. Too much of graphics and not needed for at that stage of the story..!
When we look at music section, Songs and
background score by M.M.Keeravani were compelling
and raised the atmosphere of the narration. All
the songs of Baahubali -2 were Okay, but I felt the music of Baahubali -1 was
better. I am talking about the Hindi version only.
Overall, Baahubali -The Conclusion' is a spectacular visual classic a must
watch cinematic experience from preferably the best theater in your locality. Great
work by S.S. Rajamouli.
