Sahoo movie full review in English

Saho which stars Prabhas in his first screen acting since the baahubali films took almost two years to complete cost roughly three hundred and fifty crore rupees to make clocks in at nearly three hours and leaves you with a kind of pounding headache that'll take the better part of the day to recover from and one point in the film chunky Pandey who plays a nostril-flaring crime boss named Devraj threatened someone saying I will put you through a lot of pain he might as well have been speaking to the audience written and directed by suji 'the saho is the sort of film that pretends to be smarter than it actually is it has a convoluted plot that's crammed with twists and turns and secret identities and big reveals yet when stripped to the bone it's ridiculously silly Jackie Shroff plays Roy the head of a crime syndicate in a fictional land named vaji who is killed the very night he lands in India let's just say the issue of his successor is a complex one close a home meanwhile

 Mumbai police forced his star attraction Ashok played back from Haase has been tasked with ferreting out a mysterious figure known only as Shadow and played by Neil Nitin Mukesh who is believed to be the brain behind an ingenious theft of 2000 crore rupees now there's a lot going on in the film but not a lot of it is especially compelling any expectation of logic and any semblance of reality quickly goes out of the window after promises character is introduced running up every floor of a charlet vanquishing criminal and miscreant elements including wait for it a Python and in another flat a deadly black panther I think it's fair to say that the mantra of this movie is anything goes the action jumps from one part of the globe to another without explanation Ashok never misses an opportunity to shake a leg with fellow crime fighter Amrita and I are played by Shraddha Kapoor and the crime syndicate appears to have a roster of heavily tattooed imaginative Lee hairstyle henchmen who show up anywhere and everywhere to make trouble the MacGuffin in this story is something called a black box that shadow has his sights on and as you may have guessed it is of course linked to the Roy Empire now I don't want to be a party-pooper who's looking for logic in a dumb action tentpole to be fair we don't ask these questions of a fast and furious film or a Mission Impossible movie or even from the race franchise in Bollywood but the truth is that sajo isn't content with being a dumb action tentpole with slick set pieces it insists on sweeping you into its plot which is more than you can offer given how singularly harebrained it is literally the film's only saving grace is its leading man who sportingly goes along with what's expected of him he's both tough-guy and gentle giant he's both romantic hero and rock-hard adds sporting action star it's a shame the film does little justice to his enormous presence and his unmistakable sincerity in one bizarre yet oddly fascinating sequence he leaps shirtless into the open sky as it turns out to rescue his damsel any actor who agreed to do that scene without questioning its relevance or logic deserves your sympathy others like shraddha kapoor chunky Pandey Mahesh Manjrekar mandira bedi Tino Anand and Neil Nitin Mukesh barely register despite reasonable screen time you can hardly be blamed the impressively staged but ultimately exhausting action pieces take up the bulk of screen time but they can't salvage this soulless film that has all the depth and emotional wallop of a video game I'm going with 1 and a half out of 5 force a ho me a surement animal to go to white is similar to the to go back
