Critic Reviews

Short review 4 min read English Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire

Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire Review: Loyalty in Gunmetal Grey

Salaar: Part 1 - Ceasefire is Prashanth Neel's brutal Telugu power-struggle epic starring Prabhas, strongest in its action and weakest in its crowded politics.

Yes, with reservations. Fans of large-scale Indian action will get the thunderous set pieces they came for, if they can tolerate a murky plot and nearly three hours.
