The hype behind “The beginning of Bahubali” is not fully justified
after watching it. Of course the war sequences, palace sets and
waterfalls has come out very well and a big appreciation to the
teamwork, but what makes a movie great, is the story and realistic
environment in the flow.
Each one has different perspective of
watching a movie. What my opinion is story is quite regular. Beginning of movie is not impressive and
quite commercial. For me combining logical and illogical facts doesn't work.
Below are few logical errors which stays in mind and lets down the flow.
1. A dry land gets covered with snow after a short distance. Not sure such type of environment exist together in nearby distance.
2. Few unnecessary songs.
3. Unrealistic baby rescue scene.
4. Tribals are more like civilians.
5. Sudeep's acting was anything other than a Sheik.
6. Prabhas's acting is just okaish until the war begins.
7. Not sure how without Binoculars the Queen and others were able to see minute details of war from very far distance.
8. Prabhas turns into spiderman while climbing the mountain more of stunts. War looks realistic but these stunts looks unrealistic.
9. In few places makeup/costumes looked like present day style.
10. Flaws in rope pulling scene
11. Unimaginable costume design by Prabhas scene.
The recent trend of successful movies are high budget movies with brilliant technicians/commercial touch/great cinematographers/amazing graphical work ,even though there are many flaws in the movie or even if it’s a movie with regular stories. It’s making director's job easy with the best technicians, lump some investments and normal stories. Focus has to shift towards areas like story and execution to uplift the standards.
In short my opinion is "a gripping story, realistic approach in few areas, in-depth research on nativity and tweaking the language would have made this movie a masterpiece". I hope Rajamouli will execute it well in Bahubali, The End.
