Ram Telugu Movie
“Hey Ram”, what a movie. We can’t say whether the son has failed the Dad or the Dad has failed the son. Anyway Nitin needs to come up with another hit to bolster his career in Tollywood. Because ‘Ram’ has failed. Despite innumerable battering scenes, in which a single punch from the hero breaks all 32 teeth of any baddy, Ram doesn’t deliver anything substantial.
Filmmakers should remember that people are tired of watching unnecessary hacking scenes. Violence is passé. And please, no more of ‘bodies flying in the air with a single punch from the hero’ scenes. Even girls who had come to watch the good-looking hero Nitin, were laughing their belly off at these fight scenes. The audiences are not mushrooms; there is no need to feed them shit. Sorry about the language, but that’s exactly what you feel like when you see movies full of glorified violence.
Another horrible aspect of ‘Ram’ is the dance sequences. Some grotesque movements don’t make choreography. Nitin’s movements were as taut as the dance steps. Moreover the director is at fault for insulting the viewer’s intelligence. Even a frontbencher worth his ‘guthka’ knows that in a cycle race competitors cannot hit each other or spray water on competitors by outsiders with water jets. The participants would be promptly disqualified and thrown out of the competition. But the director merrily shows Nitin getting hit by a rowdy competitor as well as he and other competitors in the cycle race being sprayed with water and skidding off their cycles as a result. Creative license doesn’t mean the filmmakers could show anything illogical and get away with it.
Nitin, who had given good performances in ‘Jayam’ and ‘Sye’, sometimes fails to give the right expressions in the movie and much like his dance steps seems to be out of sync with the scene in progress. Genelia of ‘Ram’ is only a shade of Genelia of ‘Happy’. The movie is endured because of the comedy of Venumadhav. Otherwise you can happily skip this movie and wait for Nitin’s next release.
