Baladoor - Movie Review

Imagine a hero who does everything good for a house behind the scenes, beats the goons for their family members, does all the sacrfice for the family etc., . while all the viewers of the movie are wondering about his larger than life character - the people around the hero like his family members, friends strangely hates him and calls him useless in the movie and yet the warrior wins even their hearts by the end of the movie.
Yes, you got the hero -it has got to be Venkatesh.
He has had done this with amazing ease and elan in the past and got some decent hits with his heart touching performances, be it in suryavamsham, lakshmi, sankranthi, and last but not least who will forget raja and many more . Baladoor should have been yet another one for venky .
It's not venky , but got to be ravi teja this time.

Baladoor is a routine family story-ala described above ( even the punch line suggests that) , with some decent performances from the veteran Super Star Krishna, Ever energetic Ravi Teja .
Ravi Teja steals the show with his care-a- damn attitude in the first half and little bit serious role coupled with some mass elements in the second half.
Anushka provides the glamour quotient for the movie, who meets hero in railway station and falls in love with him .
Pradeep Rawat and Subbu Raju done the role of baddies causing trouble for Rama Krishna's ( Krishna) family .

On the negative side,
Music by Radha Krishnan is disappointing .
Direction by Uday Shankar is flat and out-dated to say the least, void of any twists or suspense element .
Strengths -
1. Ravi Teja
2.Production values

Weakness -
1. Music
2. direction
3. second half drags.

Overall Rating : 2.75/5
Overall Feedback - Watch it without any expectations. You may just like it too.
