Viswam Movie Review Roundup: Gopichand's Action Drama Falls Short on Freshness đŸŽŹđŸ”„ #Viswam #Gopichand #SrinuVaitla

TL;DR: Viswam, starring Gopichand and directed by Srinu Vaitla, has hit theatres, but reviews suggest a mixed reception. While the movie attempts to balance action and comedy, the predictable story and lack of freshness seem to hold it back. Gopichand’s performance and the film’s comedic elements are praised, but many feel that the plot treads familiar territory without offering anything new. Here's what critics and social media are saying. 📊


Critics’ Take: Familiar Storyline, Strong Performances 🧐

  • GreatAndhra rated Viswam 2.5/5, noting that while Gopichand is effective in his role, the film’s storyline is a letdown, being too predictable. The review appreciated Srinu Vaitla's signature comedy tracks, especially those involving Prithvi and Gopichand, which brought some much-needed laughs to the first half. However, the overall narrative lacked originality and tension, making the second half feel drawn out and formulaic​(NTV Telugu).


  • TV9 Telugu also highlighted the film’s predictable plot, describing it as another routine action drama with a terrorism backdrop. They felt that Srinu Vaitla, who hasn’t delivered a major hit in years, tried to lean heavily on Gopichand's star power and comedy sequences to engage the audience. The emotional core involving Gopichand’s character and the child he’s protecting adds depth, but fails to elevate the overall film​(TV9 Telugu).


  • Sakshi gave a slightly better take, praising Gopichand’s efforts and mentioning that Chetan Bharadwaj’s music helps build some tension in key scenes. The film's action sequences are well-executed, but the storyline suffers from a lack of innovation, making it a tough sell to audiences expecting something fresh​(TV9 Telugu).


Social Media Reactions: Mixed Emotions from Fans đŸ“Č💬

Fans and viewers took to social media to share their thoughts on Viswam, with reactions ranging from appreciation for Gopichand’s action scenes to criticism of the repetitive story:

  • A user on Twitter shared, “#Viswam is an entertaining watch if you’re in the mood for some old-school action and comedy. But don’t expect any surprises in the story. đŸŽ„âœšâ€

  • Another fan tweeted, “Loved seeing Gopichand back in action, but Srinu Vaitla needs to bring in fresher ideas. It felt like a movie from the 2010s. đŸ€” #ViswamReview”

A Look at the Ratings ⭐📉

Here's a quick summary of how different sources rated Viswam:

  • GreatAndhra: 2.5/5 - Praises Gopichand and the comedy but criticizes the predictable plot.

  • TV9 Telugu: Highlights the routine storyline with a few engaging comedy moments.

  • Sakshi: Notes that while the action and music were good, the film lacked a fresh narrative.

MediaFx Opinion: Nostalgia Without the Novelty đŸ§ đŸŽ„

At MediaFx, we believe Viswam has the elements of a classic Telugu action film, but it fails to bring something new to the table. The movie might appeal to those who enjoy Gopichand’s charisma and Srinu Vaitla’s comedic touch, but for viewers looking for a fresh story, this one might feel like a missed opportunity.
