Mr Perfect Movie Review

Prabhas is back with his third consequent summer film Mr.Perfect (after Billa and Darling). He pairs up with his lady luck Kajal and Chubby Tapaasi this time. Mr.Perfect is directed by Dasaradh who delivered a cool hit "Santosham" a decade back, while ace producer Dil Raju produces it.

Let’s see how perfect this flick is…

Plot (Not a Spoiler): Vikki (Prabhas), a video game designer strongly believes in just winning rather than sacrifice. Although good at heart, He has that “don’t care attitude” when it comes to fight for his belief’s. Now he has to decide between two girls of his life.

First among them is sweet girl Priya (Kajal), Doctor by profession who loves her cute world in her small village but she loves to change her ways for her love. Then it is vivacious Bhuvana (Taapsi) who exactly thinks like Vikki with perfectly matching attitude.

Performances…

Prabhas stepped into a slightly different zone with “Darling”, may be to get that family boy tag just like what Venkatesh did in past. And now he looks more comfortable in “Mr.Perfect”, he understands that subtlety and performs way better. He looks cool throughout thanks to styling. His improved diction needs a big applause especially in the climax scene. Simply saying, He stands apt to the title…

Kajal…Gorgeous might be a routine word to use, but no second thought for she looks stunningly beautiful in this movie. She steals our hearts with honest portrayal of Priya. And her chemistry with Prabhas just enhances her presence. Kajal should seriously look forward to endorse few saree brands

Taapsi is good choice for the bubbly role of Bhuvana. One could see the improvement in her acting abilities though there’s long way to go. She has dubbed for herself for the first time, and thus she scores some brownie points there.

Viswanath, PrakashRaj, Nazer, Shiyaji Shindey and Murali Mohan did their good in rendering some lengthy dialogues, which are fine at most of the times. Brahmanandam, Raghubabu and Bharath tried their best to make us laugh and let’s give them some pass marks for it.

Both the halves are perfect…

First half dedicates enough screen space and setting, for cute romance to blossom between the lead pair. Village atmosphere with refreshing lavish green fields, pleasant ponds and natural beauty in full swing visually entices us. With songs that are purely situational and awesome chemistry of Prabhas and Kajal, this half moves very smoothly to bring us to the slightly conflicting (of course predictable) interval block.

Second half introduces Taapsi and brings the audience back to the foreign locales. Director comes up with yet another family setting here too and spares some time to build up another new plot here. With the presence of biggies like PrakashRaj and viswanath, this half has plenty of emotions and some nicely crafted moments to satisfy the audience. The way the director unites two different plots and driving us to climax is interesting part.

Both the halves are good in their own way.

Technical Departments

Vijay K Chakravarthy, who worked for Orange, Bommarillu etc does superb job here. Every frame looks crystal clear. I loved the “Aakasam Baddaliana" song and Also an introduction fight of Prabhas in swimming pool. As expected, DeviSriPrasad’s compositions look good on screen rather than just the audio. Background score is also perfectly fine.

Dasaradh, who gave us Santosham in the past, almost tries his best in ‘Mr. Perfect’.  The basic theme that says “It’s not either hobbies or tastes that make a marriage successful, but it’s all in sacrificing for our love” is convincingly delivered. Abburi Ravi comes up with adequate dialogues and frequent sparks.

What’s Imperfect?

Yes, we might feel the references from Orange (Heroes characterization) and Bommarillu (setting in second half and climax), but what makes difference is Screenplay by Hari which flows smoothly and glues the audience till the end, though what we see is partly predictable. So Mr.Perfect is not completely perfect in a way it borrows the style and many scenes from many movies of past. And way the emotions are built up looks artificial at times especially in the climax where everyone one after the other, lifts the hero saying “Nee Valle…nee valle”.

And if you notice in second half, few scenes are canned away with background wallpaper may be to limit the budget in bringing all the people overseas. 

Final Say….

 Perfect chemistry of Prabhas-Kajal-Taapsi and presence of huge supporting cast and absolutely perfect cinematography that makes every frame look rich, outwits the minor flaws and loopholes. One thing for sure is Mr.Perfect will definitely have some cheers on your faces while we leave the theatre for its positive feel and is obviously one big choice for it being super clean and green film with zero vulgarity. Like Prabhas learns to sacrifice towards the end, audiences have to sacrifice the novelty factor.

Rating

3.25/5 I don’t mind giving a quarter more for it is really feel good film of this summer. Go watch it if you are looking for decent entertainer.
