Watch Killing Veerappan For Free

I love this movie so much

Expected more

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

In my opinion, the Indian cinema lacks the traction(reasons, immaterial!)when it comes to sensible, no-nonsense, non-'masala' movies about professionals like the armed forces, Intel. agencies and so on. In such circumstances, movies like these are a relief and a glimmer of hope.First of all, the show is stolen by Shiva Rajkumar! His portrayal of an obsessed and workaholic, ruthless and unconventional, loyal and righteous officer is thrilling. Note that he isn't named in the whole movie(at least, I didn't realize!). His numerous disguises in the movie seem genuine. Nowhere, as the STF chief, he sermonizes about good or bad, he effectively conveys the fact that he's doing what it takes to eliminate Veerappan. When questioned about his ruthless killing of Veerappan's team members, he shrugs saying 'I am killing to tell people that killing is not justified'. As I said in the beginning, the presentation of the movie's plot and the sequence of events are something that majority of Indian movies lack. There are almost no 'masala' or melodramatic moments. The occupational hazards, the perils, the dedication of the police officers makes service-class,9-5 types people like me feel puny. Tracing a soulless criminal like Veerappan in the dense forests, getting ambushed, betrayals - all these facts are daunting for a common man. Unlike the masterpiece 'Madras Cafe', the director and his team haven't shied from directly referring to LTTE's Prabhakaran, the martyred officers, Veerappan's family and team members. From guessing and eliminating mole within STF, then following the leads provided by that mole to uncover more leads and information reminded me of another classic 'Sarfarosh'.The plot of the movie is the second strong point. In a span of 2.5h, the writers have tried to cover/mention as many significant incidents pertaining to Veerappan as possible, in the least gory ways.There are several scenes in the movie worth mentioning: 1. Since the beginning, the STF leader(played by Shiva Rajkumar)is clear on the point that Veerappan can be captured/eliminated only after he is lured out of the jungle. During the entire mission, he doesn't sway from that track and constantly improvises his approach 2. Interrogating for information and later eliminating Veerappan's team members, ensuring the spy cam removal before Mutthulakshmi returns to her rented apartment 3. STF chief mocks his subordinate's logic and says that he's a History student and knows how to learn from History 4. Breaking the leg of the captured arms supplier just to ensure that Veerappan buys the idea that the dealer cannot deliver arms in person but rather delegate it to someone elseThe cinematography is well-suited to the movie's plot and pace. The make-up crew deserves special mention, the actors seem genuinely the characters(another aspect that Indian movies, especially, Bollywood lack - even a soldier toiling in the desert is having a clean face, without a particle of sand!).The movie isn't the best of Ram Gopal Varma's works. The camera movements are often irritable, especially, during the shootout near the guest house near the forest. While Varma is known to take liberties, which he accepts openly, there are some points that cannot be digested e.g: Shreya being part of STF after her cover is blown, despite of the lack of combat experience, she participates in all field actions, her identity is disclosed at the end to Mutthulakshmi, the manner in which Gandhi is planned to be arrested - all these are mishaps that no police professional would land in. The lyrics of the songs are defiant and pump up the blood but the music composition for the same is lame !!!Overall, I would place this movie in the top 10 Indian police movies.

It is totally a RGV movie. And new concept to Kannada Industry. It should be appreciated to RGV for his guts to take a movie which is already come in Kannada :Veerappan, Attahasa and Gandhadagudi 1 & 2 loosely based on forest tusk smuggler also in Tamil movie captain Prabhakar etc. His film narrative is simple and amazing.And Mr. Shivaraj Kumar performance is super and coolest acting, which never seen this type in his career. It is totally a different Shivanna which we have seen in past. Great actingLastly The Veerappan - Best performance and 100% for the make man. Total movie is awesome, 1st attempt in Kannada industry.Shivakumar

This is my first review on IMDb. The trailer was very intriguing, it made me go to the movie on a working day. At first, I thought as usual I will not get a chance to watch this movie in a cinema hall near my place. But, thankfully I didn't travel far to watch it. Two cinema- halls were showing "Killing Veerappan" here. All right, coming to the movie - The movie is incredibly made with proper cast, locations, background score, and DOP. The movie runtime showed covered the actual topic which the director (RGV) wanted to showcase - Operation Cocoon. Sandeep Bharadwaj looks exactly like the Veerappan, he's got a striking resemblance. Overall, the movie is really appreciable. I don't want to judge the movie with all the research I did regarding Veerappan, Muthulakshmi, Operation Cocoon, and Sandalwood smuggling.

Satya,Company,Rangeela,Bhoot,Kaun,Sarkar,Raat,Siva,Attacks of 26/11,Rann,Rakth charitra, Sarkaar Raj all these movies are directed by the mad crazy Bitch of Indian cinema RGV. I always waited for his comeback and here goes this film is the gem I was waiting for. This is no Satya but absolutely better than Rann and Rakth charitra. Brilliant flick. A bang on gift by RGV this new year. Great one. Welcome back RGV. Please do watch this film.Don't go with high expectations you may get disappointed. So go without any expectations you'll surely love it. There is everything, Wide and close camera shots, ruthless violence and brilliant performance by the ensemble cast. Don't miss this one.
