Analysis
Anil Ravipudi with Venky and Varun Combo Created a Sensation F2. It went on to become one of the biggest Blockbuster for all three. Now they are back with the sequel of it and it has ticked all the boxes for becoming an excellent sequel.
Movie starts with establishing Venky, Varun and all the key characters and their dreams to earn big. Then comes Lab Dab Dabbo song which starts abruptly but the way it is picturized is impressive.
Director opens several threads right from the beginning of the movie. Murali Sharma's thread is completely emotional, Rajendra Prasad's Thread brings the conflict point into the story and Venky Varun Thread is a Hilarious one.
All The threads are properly established but the only problem movie suffers during the proceedings is loud comedy. Few scenes are a bit over the top and some audience might get a feeling of forced comedy.
Tracks like Venky's Night Blindness, Varun's Stammering and Fits work as Saving grace during this time, which are executed excellently and are rib-tickling
From the Pre Interval Robbery scene, Movie crosses all the Hurdles and sets its tone into an amusing ride.
Interval bang is funny and creates interest on what will Happen next by setting a stage for a Hilarious second half.
Second half starts with Venky, Varun, Rajendra Prasad, Tamannaah and Family going to Murali Sharma's house and now begins the real fun.
Act of Impressing begins and everyone trying their best in that and plans they make to defame eachother infront of Murali Sharma workout superbly.
Sonal Chauhan character is introduced which becomes one of the funny threads in the movie and then comes Woo Aa Aha Aha song which attracts the masses.
Toy Business Development Episode is One of The Major Highlights of the Movie. The sequence is "WOW" and its a Feast not only to Movie lovers but also the Fans of top Tollywood Heros too.
Then comes the party song with Pooja Hedge Life Ante Itta Undala which fits there and doesn't feel like forced. This song too will attract the masses.
Pre Climax Emotional Scene about Money, how it effects a person and influences to earn it in Fastest ways even doing bad deeds creates an impact. Movie's whole emotional weight falls at this place and director has executed it very well.
Climax is Sensational. It's a laugh riot and everyone will be out of their seats laughing the whole sequence. It's The Best sequence in the whole movie.
After an Extrodinary Climax, Movie ends with Anil Ravipudi announcing F4.
Anil Ravipudi continues his winning streak with F3. He makes an excellent sequel with putting right dose of entertainment. He proves his mark yet again with his comedy. Editing is neat and Runtime is perfect for a movie like this.
Production Values are good. Songs and BGM by DSP are great. Visuals are Superb.
(MY) Final Word
Anil Ravipudi has proven his mark in comedy with all his previous outings and he does it again with an Amazing sequel to Sensationa F2. Though the movie has the same problem of Loud comedy like F2 did, F3 succeeds in making the audience laugh through and at some times it does it way better than F2. Anil Ravipudi properly packs it with good comedy and interesting sequences and with Venky, Varun Performances, Audiences are superbly engaged throughout. On a Whole, F3 ends up as an Enjoyable sequel that has elements to attract all sections of Audience.
Bottomline: F3: Fun and Frustration - Fun × 3, Frustration × 0 (Entertaining Hilarious Ride!)
Note: This is my take on the movie. That is why I am not rating the movie. I respect each and every movie. Making people read my review and influencing them to form an impression on a movie before watching the movie is never my intention. I am a Movie lover too. This is just to express my view on the movie. 😊
