All You Need to Know

I.M.C.F Review
Some things never change in Telugu Commercial Films... Like logicless killings, Shooting without prior experience, Escaping easily from law and etc! Even Love happens logicless ly, but at least that's a different genre, coz we never know how and why love happens! Anyway... the commercial aspects have always been such and being a commercial film, this film is no different. Dil Raju sir slowly moving into commercial films (Excluding his next film, Fidaa), is a bad sign for the industry. 

A silver lining about this film is that... The second half is better than the first (my opinion, though).
The first half is more like creating a base to the characters and the plot, which is good, but either more logicless or lagged!
The second half is different though, with a faster screenplay, less lag, and a good plot! Climax again is a bit of a thing to be discussed - As it is different and logicless, and not quite sure how it will be received by the audience!

Overall... it's a fine film with something to entertain, all sets of people. Has got action, light humor, dances, fights and a decent plot!

I.M.C.F Rating : 78/100
Direction : 7/10 : Initial few minutes were very commercial and logicless. Should have done better. The climax is a bold move though!
Production Values : 7/10 : Nah! Not good! Poor CGI should have been avoided.
Story/Plot : 7/10 : Not certified fresh, but decently well-written plot! Different in its own way, but routine in Tollywood's way!
Cast Performances : 9/10 : Allu Arjun as a priest and a hitman, had been exceptional. Especially the last few mins of his acting are too good! Pooja had been cute. Murali Sharma and Rao Ramesh did very well. Support cast had been decent.
Music : 9/10 : Music for songs is good enough, but BGM had been too good.
Cinematography : 7/10 : The stunts and the action sequences were shot well.
Choreography : 8/10 : Allu Arjun has a reputation for dances, and also we can't expect them to dance for every song. 3 songs are too good, 3 are fine. Works well, I guess!
Screenplay/Editing : 8/10 : Seems to be long and lagging, but slowly gets better.
Dialogues : 8/10 : Well written. Hilarious at times too!
Awe Moment(s) : 8/10 : Allu Arjun's acting during the last few minutes; Convincing Vennela Kishore's parents and the rest were routine.
