Bhai movie review: what critics say (9)
What critics say Critics are divided: 0 of 9 rated critics gave it 3.5 or more, 3 gave it 2 or less. Praised: the script and the pacing. Criticised: the script.
His latest offing ‘Bhai’ is a good case study of how a good actor like Nagarjuna can be wasted in an age-old story with equally old-styled screenplay. The movie banks on three things- Nagarjuna, comedy and family sentiment.
Read the full reviewOne more Don story in Nagarjuna’s kitty. Director Veerabhadram served us the same wine in a new glass. First half of the story dealt with his stylish introduction and mafia backdrop.

Read the full reviewFirst half of Bhai is unbearable with story not moving anywhere. Second half starts off with an interesting twist at the interval. There is some story to write about in the second hour.
Bhai came in with good expectations, riding on the back of a nice audio album from DSP. But the film fails to entertain. Poor screenplay, bad writing and terrible editing spoil the overall viewing experience.

Read the full reviewThe film tries to juxtapose the goofiness of an Aha Na Pellanta with the stylized action of a gangster flick like say Shadow. The result we’re afraid is a dumbed-down version of Don.
Read the full reviewThe film takes off with some promising locales, hot foreign girls and good premises but Nag gives a scare with his weird hairdo like a Red Indian Chief.

Bhai audience rating and reviews
How is the fan score worked out?
It is a Fair Score, not a plain average. Votes from brand new accounts, accounts that have rated only one film, several votes from one network, sudden bursts, and accounts that only ever give one star's films 1 or 5 stars count for less. A few early ratings cannot swing it. Nothing is hidden: we show the star bars above.
