MAX Review: Kichcha Sudeep Shoulders High Octane Action Thriller- Telugu Funda

After a series of unimpressive movies, KIchcha Sudeep delivers a strong mass masala action thriller

Inspector Arjun Mahakshay goes with the name Max– the name no one barely calls him but recognised by only one of the many villains. Max comes with the track record of multiple suspensions and transfers due to his unabashed sincerely. The typical honest police officer role. However, MAX is not about Arjun. MAX is a one-night crime cover up thriller; an escaping drama from two powerful ministers and their men after the death of the minister’s son in the police station. 

Writing strong villain characters and making the hero overcome the obstacles and dangers set by the villains is a perfect template for a mass masala action thriller that doesn’t treat its characters as just tools to elevate the heroism of the hero. But, MAX does use all the characters as tools for the sake of the hero. Sunil playing the gangster Guna is the main villain, Varalakshmi Sarathkumar as an insider cop working for Guna gets an interesting entry into the story with the hyped heftiness of a fox-like cunning cop. But, that doesn’t hold for long. We are made to believe that the villains are too powerful only through the shivering fears expressed by incompetent police officers. Vijay Kartikeyaa should have taken a bit more care to craft the intelligence of the characters rather than just telling the audience to believe that the politicians and gangsters are really powerful and dangerous. 

MAX is not a flawless movie. It has its flaws, far too many from the standpoint of characterization. However, MAX works well because of Kichcha Sudeep’s heroic screen presence as an all-powerful big-brain strategic cop who never loses his cool unless he is talking on a phone call. The Lokesh Kangaraj’s Khaidi like plot-line of one-night actioner and goons of powerful men covering up the entire isolated police station gives MAX an immediate sense of tense urgency that keeps the audience hooked for the next moves. And, the positioning of the police station– designed by  Shiva Kumar– in an isolated place is also a bit less convincing but it had to be that way for the plot to progress as Karthikeyaa had written it. 

The heroic swagger of Kichcha Sudeep fired up by the background score of Kantara-fame Ajaneesh Loknath saves this underwritten escape thriller that engages you throughout the film.

TF Rating: 3/5

Revisiting Upendra’s ‘Super’ Dystopian Political Drama Ahead of its Spiritual Sequel, UI - Telugu Funda

Upendra is one of very few original voices of India. His films often get cult status. Ahead of the release of his latest UI on December 20th, let’s revisit UI’s spiritual prequel released in 2010, Super. 

Super is a story about Subhash Chandra Gandhi, the man who made utopian India possible with his unthinkable political philosophy. The story starts in 2030’s India where English-speaking foreigners, especially Britishers and Americans, are begging in front of the Warangal International Airport. The world economics are flipped in 2030: the dollar’s value has plummeted, Indian ethnic wear is seen as fashionable over the western wear, public spaces are filled with Hindu gods, Indians are considered as well cultured and foreigners are seens as only Rupee grabbing opportunists. As usual, the first thirty minutes was taken solely to position Upendra’s ideas of India in 2030 leaving the rest of the film to the quiet not-so-very-genetic plot of how he did what he did.

Aptly named, Subhash Chandra Gandhi, is a rich sentimental nationalist living in Britain, only to realise that his love for India as it is not worth it, the harsh reality hits him as he tries to solve the simple pension problem of a poor man. He also realises that the woman, Indira (Nayanthara) he married turns out to be a dupe set out to take vengeance for the injustice Gandhi allegedly caused to her elder sister Mandira. These realities make him a bad person from a good person and he sets out to teach a lesson to the whole India by becoming the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.

Let’s get real. Upendra as a filmmaker is not for everyone. Upendra’s ideas are very eccentric. He is no less than an auteur. His cultural commentaries through the films like Upendra and A are quite problematic in the real sense. However, what makes Upendra a true genius is his borderline-satire fused with preaching of ideals, HIS ideals. His views on democracy, women, monogamy, sex, public decency etc might not be accepted by all. He never imposes his ideas as preachiness. He preaches. But, not through the spectrum of black and white, but through the true essence of character itself. To make thighs more difficult, he plays both the good and the bad in his movies. Oftentimes, the character transformation is not from bad to good, but from good to bad to good (the conclusion depends on U). Therefore, it becomes frustratingly difficult to understand if the filmmaker Upendra is speaking or the character that is passing on the message. 

Upendra’s utopian Super set in 2030 is a must-watch ahead of the release of his UI, the dystopian political drama set in 2040.

 UI is going to hit the theatres on December 20th, 2024.  Follow Telugu Funda on trending Social Media Platforms for more Cinema, OTT, Political, And Sports updates
