I had heard a lot about this movie and wanted to see it since a long time, but had avoided since it seemed to contain a lot of violence. In fact, I had even read about the tale, so kind of knew the storyline's journey from Mumbai to Bangalore to KGF. But what fascinated me, when I finally watched it today, is the depth. Depth in dialog, action sequences and in the side-details unrelated to the main theme like when she challenges to touch him, when he tests the M16, etc. Agreed, it is filmy, and trying to make the hero all-powerful and untouchable - like how some guys tries to shoot him when he is just standing and still misses despite multiple attempts. But the overall goal is still achieved - like Jason in the Bourne series, Bahubali in the Bahubali series and Maximus in Gladiator, Kannada's Sandalwood has finally produced one of the same genre and a same character. It is very rare that I rate a Kannada movie as must-see but this one sure stays near the top...more for the film-making.
Rating: Must-see
