MOVIE REVIEW: Major is a perfect tribute to Sandeep Unnikrishnan and his story is worth watching & deserves to be told. The movie delivers what it promises, the first half is decent and the second half is gripping with its outstanding climax that will leave you teary-eyed.
Adivi Sesh has delivered his career-best performance. He perfectly portrays the patriotism and emotional side of the army officer’s life. Prakash Raj and Revathi were impressive. Revathi brings a lot of emotional depth to the film and Prakash Raj’s climax speech was impactful & leaves everyone with moist eyes. Murali Sharma is effective and dependable as always. Sobhita Dhulipala was good in her limited role and Saiee M Manjrekar’s performance was just fine. Anish Kuruvilla and other supporting actors including the actors who played the terrorist role have delivered convincing performances.
Sashi Kiran Tikka’s direction is excellent. The film starts on a low note which is more focused on the romantic side of Major but it ends on a very emotional note with some engrossing action sequences. The music is average, the background music is good, and the cinematography is splendid. There are several wow moments for the viewers during the operation scenes. Do wait for the end credits to watch out for the snapshots of Sandeep’s life.
