Amaravathi review


Watched Amaravathi yesterday and I felt it was just an average movie. By now, most of you must have read the plot of the movie. I will not get into the details but will discuss where Ravibabu could have done better. First half of the movie is repetitive with the director showing again and again how the babies are stolen from the womb. He tried using loud noises to scare away audiences but after a while it didn't go well with me.

No.2, though I liked the concept of special task force with different clothing and vehicles (a much required addition to India in real world), I didn't find the logic in not involving regular police. Right from the first scene it is only special task force which we see in action!

No.3, casting is horrible. None of them were impressive except the old lady (I guess she is Rajyalakshmi)! I wonder why Sneha and Bhumika agreed to act in this movie. They have no roles whatsoever and are in the movie only for the publicity element. The worst part is the casting of Tarakaratna in the role of psycho. The character is eccentric in nature but Tarakaratna failed to impress in that role. He hasn't enough homework on how eccentric people behave. Poor performance. Anyways, below is my rating.
