Baahubali 2: The Conclusion

Bahubali 2: The Conclusion is a bit of a disappointment for me in the end, because I did get what I expected, but only in scenes that had special effects or were action-packed. When it comes down to it, though, they are beautiful to look at, not only because they are technically stunning, but also because they are imaginative and original. (09.05.2017)

A great Indian epic that lasts awfully long, but surprisingly doesn't bore at all, one of the best and most expensive films to have come from India. The characters are dense, the action is spectacular and the cinematography is amazing (the final clash has countless ideas and the battle formations, including strategy, will give history buffs orgasms). There are a few laughable moments, but on the whole this is a really great film where everything works, from the story to the emotions to the action. I jokingly paused at the twist midway through the film, because I was honestly shocked, even more so when I learned that it wasn't planned as a twist. Anyone who likes historical epics should not to miss this. Story****, Action****, Humor***, Violence***, Entertainment****, Music****, Visuals*****, Atmosphere****, Suspense****. 8/10. (14.12.2020)
