Duvvada Jagannadham DJ Movie Review
Over ALL Verdict: A
moderately entertaining commercial potboiler Perfomance By Allu is best 2.75/5
It’s
not every day that you get to see a well-made commercial entertainer, with
interesting mass moments and a pleasant romantic story tossed in, without
having to squirm or end up having a headache.
DJ
has a predictable storyline and the screenplay also could have been more tight
as some of the scenes don't excite you. However, some crowd pleasing
choreographed stunts sequences, Allu Arjun's screen presence and a powerful
baddie hold your attention to a large extent.
DJ
proves to be a moderate time pass fare if you are an Allu Arjun fan for a
little more than two and a half hours.
Director
Harish Shankar’s effort to showcase Allu Arjun's mass presence is evident in action
sequences. Maybe he could have concentrated more on the writing part
Slipping
logic into your wallet would be a good idea before entering the halls, but it’s
unlikely that you would regret doing so. Probably if the script had been a
little more engaging, you might not think about its logical loopholes during
the course of the movie. Harish could have been a little more conscious to
avoid clichés.
The
first half of the movie at a reasonable pace with some humor. While the 2nd
half is a little lengthier and could have been trimmed a little.
The
ending looked flat and was not concentrated enough. Tanikella Bharani is quite
natural in his role so was Vennela Kishore. No other supporting actors make an
impact.
Devi
Sri Prasad’s music is perfect for the film.
However repetitive his music might sound as
long as it serves the purpose. ‘Saranam Bhaje Bhaje’ is the pick of the album
and the background score flows with the movie. Another noteworthy aspect of DJ
is Ayananka Bose’s cinematography.
