Lots of buzz about this one. I shall be seeing it.
Two mega-aesthetic modalities synthesize here to create big popcorn bucks without any nuance. It's got great dancing and action! But the setting feels like emotional melodrama more than any real historical-political critique or statement.
The craft that went into this movie is truly staggering, but god, I hated it so much. It felt like an entire movie made of scenes a hyperactive 12-year-old doodled on the back of his notebook. Fundamentally not for me on any level.
Sequel in the works ~ (https://variety.com/2022/film/global/rrr-sequel-ntr-jr-rajamouli-1235465522/)
