Bruce Lee review

Cast: Ram Charan, Kriti Kharbanda, Rakul Preet Singh, Rao Ramesh, Sampath Raj, Brahmanandam, Brahmaji, Tisca Chopra, Saptagiri.Direction: Sreenu Vaitla.Genre: Family.Duration: 2 hours 35 minutes
Story: The film tells the story of Karthik aka Bruce Lee (Charan) who has just one goal in life — to help his elder sister, Kavya (Kriti) pursue her dreams.
Movie review: Can a cameo, not more than five minutes long at best, turn out to be the most remarkable part of a two-and-a-half hour long feature film? Apparently, yes. Chiru's special appearance in Bruce Lee proves as much. For it's ridiculous, the effect that fleeting sighting of the much loved matinee idol, clearly past his prime, doing what he does best, after a long hiatus, has on the movie watching experience as a whole.
It's as though, for those few minutes that the Megastar is onscreen, nothing else matters — not Ram Charan, not the plot (which isn't there anyways) or even the logic of why Chiru is doing there in the first place. Saving the cameo for the climax might just be the smartest thing the director did in the film.
Well, there are a few moments that the filmmaker got right. The episode in which Karthik deliberately flunks his exams just to prompt his dad to send his sister to the better school is one of them. Unable to afford to send both his children to a good school, the dad decides the son must get the better education.
