Sangeetha Devi Dundoo The Hindu Ram Charan dances like a dream, as always, and shows marked improvement as an actor. But what he needs is a project that will not belittle the huge fan base in the garb of masala. Oct 19, 2015 Full Review Karthik Pasupulate The Times of India Ram Charan is in his element when dancing and pulling off the stunts, and he even tries his hand at comedy, but that's still a work in progress.

StephenPaul C The greatest 02 hours: and 31 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Filmed in Hong Kong with Mandarin Chinese audio and English subtitles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/11/23 Full Review Audience Member this can be one night mare that none would want in a life time.. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member 3.5/5* or 7/10 Director Srinu Vaitla is back after the disastrous flop Aagudu, and Ram Charan has also been going through a lean phase with his last release GAV doing just average business. Bruce Lee The Fighter therefore comes with huge expectations of becoming a hit, the film has to bring both superstar director and actor to the top again. Thankfully Bruce Lee works, and one can see the film going on a successful run. The film is a entertaining mass entertainer, that has good family sentiments. The first half is really breezy and good. The second half does drag, and the stories twists are not really suspenseful. Also the story does follow the predictable cliched mass entertainer model. But Megastar's entry, and Brahmi's comedy keep the second half afloat. But more on that later. Story wise the film is about a boy named Karthik and his sister who come from a middle class family, and there father cant afford both of them going into higher studies.The father wants Karthik to become a collector, but seeing his sisters eagerness to study and become a collector Karthik scarifies his studies. He purposely does bad in school so his sister can go to college etc, he also earns his fathers wrath but he doesn't care. He grows up to become a stunt man to help his father support his sisters educations, but his father is oblivious of this. He then after an encounter with a girl obsessed with cops, gets into crazy whirlwind of confusion where the girl thinks he is a cop, and she gets him into alo of trouble. After awhile Karthik's sister gets herself caught up in a drug case, and Karthik then has to face some unwanted trouble. What happens next forms the rest of the plot. Acting wise Ram Charan, is in top form, his action, and especially dancing are amazing. Rakul Preet Singh is good in a comic role, and looks extremely beautiful. Kriti is good. Rao Ramesh is getting typecast. Arun Vijay hams. Sampath Raj is great. Brahmanandam is hilarious. Posani is funny. The films main positive is the brother sister sentiment, we don't get to see a track like this in most films,the track works wonders, and tugs at ones heart strings. The first half in general is very good and breezy,its well done. The action is stylish and top notch.The music is really good, and Ram Charan dances like a dream he is probably one of India's best. All things that make a mass entertainer a hit are in Bruce Lee. But Bruce Lee, like many other films after a great first half has a so so second half. The film starts to drag alot, and the films twists are not really suspenseful. The films starts to head into the regular masala route. However the films biggest asset comes in the climax, and that is Mega Star Chiranjeevi's intro.His action sequence, his dialogue delivery, arises goosebumps. A mind blowing scene. Also Brahmi's comedy track is hilarious in the 2nd half. Both these tracks cover up a mediocre 2nd half to a extent. Overall watch Bruce Lee The fighter for some good family entertainment, and you will not be disappointed. Charan, and Vaitla are back, and if your a Mega Star fan run to the theatres, because his 5 min special appearance is worth the ticket price alone. 3.5/5* or 7/10 Ps. Finally watched a telugu film in a premier show on thursday in Surrey BC!!! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
