Powerful Court Scenes! PSPK Comeback!!! 7/10
vasudevaa9 April 2021
Check out my other reviews! I give reviews for all new Telugu movies.
Execution and Screenplay: 3.00/5.00
Special Note to Thaman bgm. It was absolutely amazing! Every second the satyameva jayate bgm just rocks. During PSPK intro scenes, elevations, and
The first half At the start of the movie the director instantly builds curiosity with the main incident making us glued to our seats. We will be waiting to see what happens. Right after this comes pawan kalyan's entrance which was quite good. It established him as a drunkard and showed nice elevations that are definitely goosebumps for fans. From there the whole first half goes very slowly and isn't very appealing. We don't feel the intensity of the incident that is portrayed. If this is not bad enough the flashback comes. The flashback is really bad executed. It is almost like "hero bhajana" failed.
2nd half: Now comes the second half which was pretty good. The court scenes start out and we cannot wait to see how pawan saves the day. Although it starts out slow it quickly picks up the pace. As evidences keep getting portrayed the court scenes become more and more interesting. Just as we are expecting pawan crushes it at the end. His dialogues are extremely powerful and pawan saying it made it even more powerful. At the end when pawan wins the court case we feel like jumping up and hugging him. The way the court scenes build up on each other are very good.
The only part that is the downside for the second half is how slow paced it is. It is not the court scenes we saw in movies like "Naandhi" where all evidences get portrayed very quickly and tension builds up dramatically. The courts scenes go very slowly and this might not be appealing to some sections of the audience.
Overall movie was pretty good. This is a treat for fans, good for general audience, and bad for people expecting fast and thrilling court scenes.
Scale to compare:
9.0/10 Mahanati, 8.0/10 Bahubali 2, 7.0/10 VAKEEL SAAB, 6.0/10 Uppena, 5.0/10 Saaho, 4.0/10 Agnyathavasi.

Political propaganda of the actor, and bad written story
vwallacebrother30 April 2021
I applause for all the production and people working on this, they tried their best and they achieved.
But all of this feel like a propaganda of the actor who is in politics and how he is so "good to the poor" "a justice warrior" "a hero", I know the bad thing that happens in Indian politics and justice, but this cartoonish movie/blockbluster is just horrible.
Watching this with a American perspective, this movie has right intentions but bad too, someone could make this more mature and real but this is pure intentional comerciality, propaganda, and just food for that people who consider this actor a god, his hero.
Thankfully i watched this in Prime Video so i could forward all the unnecesary fight scenes, childish acting and boring moments. For real, who wants to watch a 10 seconds clips slowed for 2 minutes with epic music in the background and call this a movie? Bad movie, and a good example of lack of awareness in Indian movie industry.

Vakeel Saab (2021) :
Brief Review -
Despite some flaws Vakeel Saab works on Decent Level because of Pawan Kalyan's Mass and Larger Than Life Vision of Director. Vakeel Saab is out an out massy version of National Award Winner Bollywood Flick Pink. It isn't like Pink is an extraordinary film or that, it has its flaws too but Vakeel Saab adds larger than life vision into it and opens some more loopes in writing. It follows the same story of three girls trying to battle male oriented thinking of society with an additional backdrop of the lawyer's character. This was a good move considering the mass appeal of the film but it takes more time than expected which resulted into slow screenplay, especially when the film has already given a slow start. It has many scenes going over the top as you see Pawan Kalyan fighting with swag, smashing all dialogues and stylish attitude throughout the film which isn't appreciate to sophisticated character of a Lawyer. However, it keeps the film engaging and makes it lot more entertaining than Pink. The problem appears in the writing which doesn't fulfill the criteria of perfection and leaves many scenes with no sense. For instance, the court verdict should be based upon facts, arguments and evidences but it doesn't apply the same while dealing with those two-three other boys' characters excluding the main antagonist. What comes better than Pink is the backstory of The Lawyer which makes him look very big hearted messiah type or so and that's why his goodwill connects to people's emotions. All the cast members are good while Pawan Kalyan shines in his typically massy Avatar even though it doesn't suit to those younger days of his character in the film. Music is decent, dialogues are fine, action scenes are enjoyable and Venu Sriram's direction is quite impressive as it should be for any massy film. Overall, Vakeel Saab drags a little but then survives and that's important.
RATING - 6/10*

First 30mins Is Little Bit Boring From Pre Interval To Climax Movie Is On Top Notch. Goosebumps Stuff To Pawan Kalyan Fans & Janasainiks. Pawankalyan's Political Journey & Punches to Other Parties Which We Feel In Movie. 2Nd Half Is Tooo Good. Pakka Blockbuster From PawanKalyan.
Utter disrespect to the woman in need
Johnsonmumbaiwala19831 May 2021
It is a complete deviation from the Original movie Pink.
Hero not moved an inch when the girls were helpless.. he just takes the case when his ego gets hurt by MP's men physical attack. Also the lawyer is unable to control his anger and the director glorified the hero like regular male dominated movies. This should not have happened for this type of film which has songs to glorify all great woman.. sheer nonsense and not sure how the hero allowed all such nonsense. Also there is a blackmail episode of a police official by the hero,, anywhere blackmailing is not good for a lawyer .... not sure if the hero liked all the character he played in the movie as the soul of the movie is lost... Unnecessary dialogues like people missing him... The movie runs around the hero instead of the girls and case. Prakash Raj did his job as expected. His presence keeps the things moving...

long & boring!

Unwanted flashback, fighting episodes, hero projection scenes etc could have been avoided! I'm wondering how PK has accepted all these masala in such sensible storyline. On a whole, if the movie could have been cut-short to max 90-100 mins, it could have been better!
political agenda

Looked decent
holla-600541 May 2021
Unnecessary flash backs of Pawan Kalyan was not needed in this feministic movie . Court scenes between Pawan and Prakash raj was good .. However I doubt whether lawyers behave like these two in reality . It did not sound professional . Pawan Kalyan screen presence in 2nd half was good ... However unnecessary flash back spoiled the whole mood of watching this movie . I agree they wanted to do a commercial movie for a commercially recognised power star but PINK is not that subject to experiment. However good one time watch if you have not seen original PINK ..
Watch only if you haven't seen Pink.

Warning: Spoilers
The movie looks decent if you haven't watched the Original Pink. The intensity and sincerity on the subject is missing which are key elements what made Pink such a good movie.
The director and story has mainly concentrated on showing Pawan Kalyan as a Angry Lawyer who can fight criminals both inside and outside of court, but by doing so the intensity on the subject is deviated. The unnecessary fights, flashback( just to show the lead character is humanitarian and became Lawyer only to help poor) to add commercial elements and elevate the lead character are absolutely unnecessary, boring. The original screenplay was much involving and captivating through out the movie. You dont need to have a 15 mins of unnecessary story to inject into a fast pacing story just to elevate lead character. The original screenplay is much better in doing so because being a mentally devastated person, going through a lot because of loss of his wife, he is still helping those suffering women from powerful villains.
Pawan Kalyan could no where convince the audience as the mentally devastated person(as said in movie) who is mentally imbalanced due to loss of his wife. He looks just like any normal hero character in a commercial movie.. ready to jump and fight anywhere anytime with great energy and enthusiasm. 3 female characters Nivetha, Anjali, Ananya did a decent Job and Prakash Raj as usual made a complete justice to his character. Coming to Pawan Kalyan's acting, not sure if its directors choice or his own.. he should still learn how to act according to intensity of the story. Such a serious story needs a sincere, serious and subtle acting and Amitabh Ji just nailed it. But Pawan's acting with sarcastic Telangana Slang at some parts and his over acting in court scenes like breaking a table in front of judge becomes irritating for general audience expecting a serious court drama like pink.
The climax could have been much better if they have used the greatest scene of Pink movie which is the climax speech by Amitabh Ji. And some dialogues in movie make you feel those are exactly written for his political speeches and rivals which again should have been avoided. These things have definitely made the movie boring in most of the parts but Fans may like them.
Watch only if you haven't seen pink or if you are a Pawan Kalyan Fan. Definitely avoid it if you are expecting another Pink. Its just a Spoiled remake of Pink.

Very nicely done.. if flashback episodes were taken in more gripping way, the movie will be super duper hit.. even though now, after watching movie, you can remember 2nd half only.. in such a way, it has been designed and well suited the character to Pawan kalyan. That message will reach through power star ..
3 girls, did their best.. Specifically mentioned Nivetha Thomas..Fabulous acting ..my raking or rating will be 9/10.
An utter derogatory to pink
