Expert Opinion: Should You Watch It?
I watched Hari Hara Veera Mallu on Day 1; it is true that the storytelling is slow to begin with, but the action sequences, with the level of production value, should make it a visual spectacle, and it certainly was on a large screen. Pawan Kalyan’s screening steals the show undoubtedly – loud, intense, commanding, and more importantly, intensely charismatic.
Much of the soul of some of the moments was from music by MM Keeravani, the historical costume design and set-pieces all added to the sense of period and location of the film.
While the screenplay could have been a little tighter in the second half, if you enjoyed grand historical action drama, you need to watch this.
