Eega Review ......

[Mr Mirchi]

Analysis:

1st half:
-->Titles roll with a Father-Daughter conversation in background. This creates much needed interest among audience.
-->Main characters Sudeep, Samantha and Nani are introduced. This was done in a regular fashion.
-->Samantha goes to Sudeep's construction company to ask for donation as part of project work and Sudeep falls in love with her. These scenes are as expected.
-->On the other hand Nani tries hard to flat Samantha with many ways. These scenes where Nani is wooing samantha have come out very well.
-->First Song 'Konchemu Konchemu.. Pisinari nari ve' starts. Picturization is superb with lights.
-->Love Clash between Nani, Sudeep. Sudeep kills Nani and he is reborn as Eega. The rebirth scenes are good and as expected.
-->Back ground music by MM keervani is not so appealing and weird sounds are used for Eega.
-->Eega's revenge on Sudeep starts and starts irritating with its behavior. Some scenes are funny and will be loved more by children.
-->More VFX is used . Things get into serious . Sudeep consider Eega has something to do with nani.
-->As movie progresses, the story is getting gripping. Eega plans and executes an accident on sudeep. Superb taking and this scene is shot extremely well and stands-out till now.
-->Interval now. First half is all about establishing the story, characters and introduction of Eega. Just like every rajamouli film, interval episode is good and elevated Eega as a hero.

2nd Half:
-->Eega trying very hard to say samantha that he is Nani who was killed badly by Sudeep, but Samantha neglects. Finally Eega conveys Samantha that its none other than Nani by writing on Glass with its tears! This is unexpected.
-->Finally Samantha comes to know that eega is nani. Few scenes are over emotional and bit awkward seeing Eega crying.
-->Eega conveys Samantha on what has happened and how Sudeep killed Nani. Eega does entire conversation with signs.
-->Now Song 'Eega Eega Eega.. Teri Jaan lega' and this goes with the story. Samantha joins Eega in torturing Sudeep. Few scenes are funny and few are okay.
-->Thagubotu Ramesh enters now. His comedy is hilarious. Though tried in the first half it didn't worked, its good in second half.
-->Movie is moving at snail's pace. Unwanted scenes and unique but not so catchy back ground music doesn't elevate the scenes.
-->Graphics in some scenes of the film are very weak. Some scenes in the film are entertaining only for children.
-->Climax is good.

Highlights:

In deed a visual treat for film buffs! It is interesting to see the usage of special effects in the right way without any over dose. How can a housefly take revenge? Well, you will have to watch Eega to get the answer! It’s a never-seen-before in Indian cinema where an insect behaves in such a realistic fashion, This is one film which will definitely take Indian cinema (especially Tollywood) to greater heights.The man behind the technology component is Pete Draper, Co-Founder of Makuta Effects, with about 20 years of experience in this space and has worked in films like Magadheera, Ghajini,etc..

-->Eega character and its evolution by Rajamouli
-->Scene in which Eega makes Sudeep meet an accident
-->Sudeep's performance
-->Thagubothu Ramesh comedy in 2nd half
-->Short duration of the film

Drawbacks:

-->Wafer-thin story line
-->Limited role and scope of acting for Nani and in first half, for Samantha
-->Though Graphics are excellent in key scenes, those in others scenes can be better
-->Background music in some scenes, especially some weird sounds used for Eega might not appeal for some

Verdict:

First of all hats-off for handling this film right from scratch, without any big Tollywood star casted. He ensured audience involvement in key scenes. Story-wise average content in first half and some slow pace narration in second half pull down this film from an Excellent Hit film to an Above Average film. Watch it once without much expectations and you would definitely enjoy. With massive publicity and Rajamouli's brand, this film will fetch a commercial success.

Rating: 3.25/5 - Above Average
