Gotta peep

@Zero come watch this movie so @Bryan Danielson can stop being shook.

That piggyback action scene is just something else

The best thing about this movie is that it's pure uncut fukkery done by people without a knowledge of what fukkery is. It's just honest about what it is.

It's not "and then he's gonna grab a motorcycle out of the air, swing it around like nunchucks and throw it over a wall"

It's "and then he's gonna grab a motorcycle out of the air, swing it around like nunchucks and throw it over a wall "

Finally got around to seeing this and it lived up to the hype

Seeing the story unfold and the different twists and turns in their friendship had me

Towards the end when the tag-team action really goes into overdrive

Load. Aim. Fire.

This movie's a huge hit in india, and film twitter loves it. as do the critics.

I used to watch shahrukh khan movies back in the day, but now I gotta go back and see what other Indian crack they cooking up over there

 

[Professor Emeritus]

people bout to hop on the bollywood wave in 2022.

It isn't a Bollywood movie.

I am just flabbergasted.

That fukcing shyt was DOPE.

I want to learn about the symbolism and history now. People on India prolly can point things out that I am missing like I be pointing out comic Easter eggs in films

This review says there's a lot of casteist undercurrents in it. In real life the tribal hero was an educated man, but they turned him into some sort of illiterate simpleton who had to learn from the high-caste buddy, and excluded the low-caste freedom fighters from the closing credits. They also cast the tribal guy with a Brahmin actor fwiw, as is common there.

RRR is an incredible action movie with seriously troubling politics

The Tollywood blockbuster is a hit on Netflix, but its casteist politics aren’t so simple.

For comparison, it's sort of like if they made an abolition flick headlining William Wilberforce and Frederick Douglass as buddies, but depicted Wilberforce as the brains behind the movement and showed Douglass as an illiterate folksy guy who had good intentions but couldn't see the bigger picture. And had Douglass played by a non-Black actor.

Look sir, this is 'merica, we dont deal in nuance. An indian is an indian

 

[Lord-Yosh]

This joint is a sleeper. Movie is great and full of fukkery at the same time
