Ala Vaikunthapurramuloo

Trivikram engages you in some trance , addiction and unadulterated pleasure ! Manalni vazhavesi Maya lo dimputhaadu. Audience ki choodali ani thapanam untae Trivikram ki valani santhoshichali ani Prema undhi!!!!
        First and foremost , if you are of the type to see a review and get your bases covered before watching a flick , this review is for you . Pack your bags , don’t look back , don’t see the 3/3.5,2.5 star reviews on other sites , book your tickets right away , without a second thought to see some sheer magic . 
        From the time you enter , whether you like or hate a scene , you will be glued to it . Trivikram has ensured that one doesn’t take his eyes off anywhere , despite some illogical moments , or flat narratives , or the lack of some depth in emotion here and there . That said , the screenplay is guru garu’s best till date . He is in top notch form here , as the screenplay is racy in parts and measured in others . Something is created out of thin air , for scenes to remain etched in our memory . Special mention here for the punctuated manner in which the songs are placed , they are simply blended with the story a narration and screenplay . Infact the songs could easily be mistaken for scenes . Full marks here for the wizard that Trivikram is !!!
            The little details are well researched , the subtle nuances such as the Casio watch that allu Arjun wears in the initial parts of the story . There is hardly any make up that Arjun wears in the first half , which adds credibility to the character further . 
          If you ever wanted to see allu Arjun the actor who could shine through every facet of cinematic parameters or benchmark in different facets such as humour , emotion , screen presence , ease , its right here in this very flick where he delivers a landmark performance , not just his career best . The boardroom scene where he is the saviour  , the one where  he yells out the truth , the lover boy shades , the disgruntled son when his opportunities are snapped  , the unconditional son not wanting anything  , he dons several caps in this flick and bringing life to these shades with utmost ease . Many may disagree , but if one does witness glimpses of Pawan Kalyan and Chiranjeevi in Arjun , they may well be spot on , he is clearly getting into an orbit of his own 
            Music as mentioned earlier , remains one of the movies many strengths . The art director Prakash and camera man Vinod , have picturised the songs to a T , to the extent that they have maximum recall . 
           Samudrakani as the villain is an interesting choice and does complete justice . Murali Sharma comes up with a compelling and in your face , performance that stands out juxtaposed with the protagonist. The other characters casted though having little to do are cogs in the wheel of the script . And Trivikram as usual makes it colourful , be it the palatial house or the family in it 
        Ring in the festive fever , don’t miss this one. 

Then coming to the actors performance, Allu Arjun's performance is his career's best performance and he nailed it. His action, dialogue delivery, dances and fights are just amazing. Heroines have done a decent job with their limited screen presence. Then I would like to say Murali Sharma's action is the next highlight of the movie. All the other actors have done their job with a limited screen space. A special mention to Sunil and Vennela Kishore comedy and timing 👍

Songs are simply superb with amazing picturization as expected given the way they already created a huge sensation . My personal favourite is the Butta Bomma song which has nice dance moves and it is very well shot. 

Story wise it is a very simple story but has amazing screenplay along with nice trivikram style punches and dialogues which I missed from him in the recent times

Finally I would say do not miss the movie, it is very very entertaining 👍. I liked the climax especially which is very very different in the recent times.
