Game Changer Quick Review: What Worked?
Triple Role for Charan
Ram Charan plays a triple role, similar to John Abraham in Satyameva Jayate 2, exploring contrasting personalities.
Familiar Shankar Tropes
The film uses familiar Shankar elements like slow-motion shots, sermons, and a less impactful romantic track.
Shankar`s Vigilantes
Shankar`s films often feature vigilantes fighting corruption, creating a potential shared universe of characters.
Scale and Visuals
Shankar continues his focus on large-scale visuals and ambitious song sequences, blending fantasy with realism.
Missing Sujatha`s Touch
The absence of writer Sujatha is noted, impacting the film`s overall entertainment value compared to Shankar`s classics.
Charan`s Performance
While earnest, Ram Charan`s performance is seen as less fluid than Rajinikanth or Vikram`s, lacking emotional depth.
SJ Suryah`s Antagonist
SJ Suryah`s portrayal of the antagonist is highlighted as a standout performance, enjoying the villainous role.
Electoral Politics Focus
The film is described as a masterclass on electoral politics, tackling corruption within the system.
Appanna and Parvathy`s Story
The portions featuring Ram Charan as Appanna and Anjali as Parvathy are praised for their emotional depth and performances.
Rehashed Elements
The film is criticised for feeling rehashed from Shankar`s previous works, lacking the magic of his earlier films, and testing logic.
