Watch Legend For Free

Sadly Over-hyped

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Legend is a 2014 Telugu film directed by Boyapati Srinu. It stars Nandamuri Balakrishna, working for the second time with Boyapati Srinu after Simha, alongside Radhika Apte, Sonal Chauhan and Jagapathi Babu.

One of the few movies which you do not want to miss... After a long time , Balakrishna has got an opportunity to bring the actor in him to the silver screen and fans celebrated the great festival....Great work by Boyapati.. His choice of keeping Jagapati babu was excellent. Never realized that jagapati can act so wonderful even in a negative role.Backbone to the movie is only Balakrishna's action and dialogs timings. I felt the first half songs were boring, and every one was just waiting to see the LEGEND... But Balayya seem to worked very hard in putting up a good dance show even. Overall a great complete movie .. Thanks to Balakrishna, Jagapathi & Boyapati.

I like to watch Boyapati's films for the intensity of violence he creates. I had goosebumps watching the epic fight sequences in his previous films like 'Tulasi' and 'Simha'. However I should say, he compromised a bit in terms of violence this time in 'Legend'. Or may be I expected more brutal second half of the film!One thing Boyapati knows well is that a Telugu film can not do well with a single agenda like violence. There have to be multiple flavors like sentiment, comedy and romance and that's why he was successful with his previous endeavors. However this time, he did not quite get any of them right. Only heroism of Balakrishna and sadism (may be villainsm) of Jagapati Babu works to the expectations. Comedy by the legendary Brahmanandam could only make mouths wide but not open. Audience felt a bit awkward to see Balakrishna romancing a girl way younger than him (I here do not refer to his acting capabilities but to the fact that he is aging). Sentiment involves you in the theater but if you go home and think back, you find it illogical. Besides the stunning performance of Balakrishna, its Jagapati Babu who adds wind to the fire thereby making the second half like a raging fire. On the flip side, what this film lacking is the depth in every aspect like sentiment, violence, logic, characterization and what not. Audience will enjoy watching a huge mob running in fear when Balakrishna chases them with an axe (or some traditional man-hunting weapon). But when some one thinks deep, why would hundreds of ruthless rowdies run out of fear when they see a man with a weapon provided they do not yet know the power and history of this legend? Likewise in every aspect the film goes shallow. Devi Sri Prasad did a real good job in terms of background score. The audio songs however, fail to impress. I don't know if it is a coincidence , but the last time when I heard a good audio in Balakrishna's movie was only in 2001 (Narasimha Naidu). Conclusion: Sparing the well-written and intense characters of hero and villain, this film falters through out. Even though you give up searching for the logics as you always do while watching a Telugu movie, this one fails to entertain.PS: What happened to the younger Balakrishna fellow? I seriously doubt if there was a need for a duel role. Or may be they worried about the screen presence time of Balakrishna that would drastically reduce if he does a single.

As expected...movie is certified with 'A' certificate because of the dose of Violence and Political dialogues.Produced by : Achanta Gopinath , Achanta Ramu, Anil SunkaraPresented by EEGA fame Sai Korrapati.14 Reels is making interesting moves. For 1Nenokkadine – It paired with EROS. Now, with Varahi.Let us "enter the LEGEND"Opening Shot : Introduction of the Villain JAGAPATHI BABU. Jagapathi Babu as a villain is a revelation ... Impressive screen presence and a big asset. It co'd be a BIG PLUS to Jagapathi Babu's Career. Might be the Replacement of SRIHARI. Till now – we are habituated to see JB as a Family Hero through most of S.V.KrishnaReddy's movies. Now – we will see an entirely different JB.This movie is a very important movie to JB than Balayya. JB is debuting as a Villain. Suman, Suhasini enter the screen.. Suman plays role of village head. The Dialogue in the scene is good. First Fight. Begins... Between Jagapati and SumanWhat's happening...One sentiment Scene is done followed by a fight - but where is Balayya.Next Shot in DUBAI.

Hats Off to Hamsanandini for dancing in sync with Balayya.1st half = Sentiment Scenes + Comedy Scenes + Fights + SongsInterval Point is highlight of the 1st Half.Dialogue Dhamaka....one after the other – Extreme Violence Shown in a Magnifying GlassIt is DSP's first time with Balayya. Boyapati and DSP's previous combos – Bhadra and Thulasi are good HITs.D S P did not do any experiments ... he very carefully researched the past movies of Balayya and rendered music accordingly.Time Bomb is for Fans,Lasku Tapa song is for Masses, Legend gives you goosebumps with superb heroism, TANJAVURU is a visual feast with good traditional dance.His BGM in action scenes is good.Legend is a romantic action entertainer with all commercial ingredients. Nandamuri Balakrishna's electrifying performance is the main highlight in the movie. Boyapati Srinu's gripping narration and punch dialogues, Devi Sri Prasad's melodious music and amazing background score, Ram Prasad's beautiful cinematography, Brahmanandam's comedy timing, Hamsa Nandini's item dance, Ram Laxman's action choreography, Radhika Apte and Sonal Chauhan's dance sequences and beautiful locales are its other attractions. Boyapati Srinu has chosen a tried and tested story, but he has made it interesting with some surprising twists and turns. He has included all spicy elements like action, romance, comedy, family drama, music and a few other stuffs. His engrossing narration coupled with wonderful performances and rich production values makes the movie a good entertainer for the Nandamuri fans.Legend is made with a never before budget of 40 Crores (1st time for Balayya).It was successful before release itself with a table profit. A movie earning a table profit is in fact a magic these days. All the Best to Balayya and Boyapati.
