Do Check : Baahubali 2 Movie First / 1st Day Collections Predictions (World Wide)
Review: The movie is a spectacular to watch. If you are not interested with the graphics, just give importance to the story and you will enjoy it to the most. The sequence of scenes which follow after Kattappa Killed Baahubali will make you involved in the entire film. The lead actress beside Rana is one more big thing involved in the movie. The costumes, drama showcased and performances are a first of its kind in Telugu films. What takes Baahubali to its peak is the stunning background score of M M Keeravani. Even though his songs are Average that effective as the Baahubali The Beginning the way he elevates the proceedings with his score is impressive.
Ramya Krishna as Sivagami has did her best what she has done in part one. Sathyaraj is exceptional as Kattappa, a loyal servant of king. Actor Subbaraju Plays Nice Roles in Second Part. He played the role of a coward who transforms into a warrior. There is humor attached to his character. Nassar has played a character that looks menacing at times and humorous in other scenes. Tamanna has a little role to play in this film and comes towards climax.
Tamanna is hardly seen during the climax. There are certain areas in the film where pace gets Dragging and some unforced drama overtakes the proceedings. The romance between Prabhas and Anushka could have been edited out a bit to make things better.Just make sure to watch the film to unveil everything and wrap the conclusion before you make up your mind on the film.

The second part has revolved around only six characters – Amarendra Baahubali, Deva Sena, Sivagami, Kattappa, Ballaladeva and Sivudu. Tamanna only appears during the climax for few seconds. Many portions also lack clarity and seem rushed.

Baahubali 2 Movie Verdict : – A visual wonder that was seen in the Indian Cinema for the first time with more than 1000 technicians worked together. Audience are so excited and will be happy to see this spectacular movie with 4K resolution. The movie has so much story involved in it. Hats off to S.S. Rajamouli and all the actors and technicians worked for 5 years. First half of the film is excellent with a superb interval block. Second half is good with story and internal political drama taking precedence.Finally, just ignore the simple story line and do yourself a favor by taking your entire family to watch this magnum opus called Baahubali as wonders like these only happen very rarely.
Indian epic historical fiction film directed by S. S. Rajamouli. It is the continuation of Baahubali: The Beginning. Initially, both parts were jointly produced on a budget of ₹ 250 crore (2.5 billion), however the budget of the second part was increased later. Baahubali 2: The Conclusion has made a business of ₹500 crore (5 billion) before release. The film is scheduled for a worldwide release on 28 April 2017. Baahubali 2 will be the first Telugu film to be released in 4K High Definition format. It is estimated that close to 200 screens are being upgraded to 4K projectors before the release date of the movie.
However, the first half also takes a step towards showing women as strong characters. The action sequences don’t sexualise Devsena (Anushka Shetty), but are rather matter-of-factly. Also, both the women, Devsena and Sivagami (Ramya Krishnan) – right or wrong – hold their ground. In fact, it is ironical that a film that is mostly set in a time before Bahubali – The Beginning, the women are treated with a lot more respect than they were by the next generations. The eve-teasing bit is given a solid, brash treatment that it deserves too. However, as the film tries to patch its way to “The Beginning”, you wonder what ever happened to the valiant, warrior princess
In all other ways though, the film continues what it starts in the first installment. Lots of action, so much so that by the end, the clinking of swords seems like background score. Some of it is brutal, even if done artistically or even lyrically. Unfortunately, it gently slides into amusing and then ludicrous. Look at any tree or animal around you and push your wilde imagination to use it as a weapon of mass destruction! The romance continues too, where clouds double as horses and flowers, soldiers turn into dancers and so on.
That is all you expected from this film and that is what you get in abudnance. The actors join in, in the continuity with Ramya Krishnan as “She who doesn’t blink” and Prabhas who is equally determined and passionate whether he is a noble warrior or a make-shift engineer. The expressions don’t change. Rana Daggubati and Sathyaraj need add no new dimension to their character either. The only refereshing change is that of Anushka Shetty.
This is of course, because the screenplay demands little variation. Bahubali has a broad Mahabharat-esque story. But without any of its complexities. Because all the screen time is taken over by dramatic slo-mo entry and loud background music. There isn’t much room to bring in nuances and unfortunately, neither did the makers feel the need.
But that is for the handful in the audience like me. The visuals are mesmerizing. You get an inkling of the scale as the censor board certificate is followed by an endless list of partners. The patient wait for the film to actually begin is well worth it. The opening credit sequence itself made me wish I had opted for the IMAX tickets, even if it was double the price. As I saw the film progress, I didn’t think I would have regretted the decision, though I didn’t mind saving the ₹250 – because ultimately, the want for a solid story always dominates.
