Instant Favorite.

Great visuals, story delivers no surprises

Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

For a complete comedy entertainer it is important to have a proper screenplay and the right kind of humor that can make the audience laugh. Though the plot is somewhat familiar, the screenplay was balanced and the script got its strength more from the writing and the presence of good actors with their performances. The first half goes with some scenes involving comedy and action but there is also some melodrama. It is the second half when the film actually picks up in terms of its entertainment and gives some enjoyable moments.The Director managed to add enough glamour and also picked the right point by comparing it with 'Narthanasala' movie. The fight sequences were good and stunts were nice. The background score by Chinna was very energetic and the songs by Bappi Lahiri and Achu were well pictured. The cinematography by Palani Kumar was a big plus. Mohan Babu gives a good performance and though he is the senior member in the cast, he gave enough room for all. Manchu Vishnu did his part well while Manchu Manoj was the more entertaining character. Hansika has shown a lot of bubbly appeal and she has lost weight which is looking good. Her performance is also good. Pranitha is very sexy and she gives good glamour feast. Raveena Tandon was expressive and she will do well in Tollywood with this role. Brahmanandam gave lighter moments. Mukesh Rishi showed maturity and elegance.The film has got good production values and though the making cost may be much, the presentation was rich. The costumes department took good care in providing the right outfits and the art department also showed grandeur.

"Mohan Babu entertains with his dialogue delivery and stuntsManchu Manoj, who endeavors something incipient in every movie he works and in this movie he had a lady getup designated Mohini for a scene, which emerged to be a highlight for the movie. Surely none can perform well than Manoj managed to bring out some humor with his own interventions.Manchu Vishnu as a wagerer(Gambler) in the film. Vishnu's chemistry with Hansika worked out well and does magic again in this film. Brahmanandam role in the second half makes the audience a stomach blast with the humor . His role in this is an added criteria for this movie's success. Dialogues by Konna Venkat goodMusic by Bappa Lahari and Achu is good.BGM by Mani Sharma is really goodEditing and Fights are excellent. The story came up with a prevalent story line, which is a prognostic able one. But regales the audience with its incipient elements of regaling and the brand mark of multi starred film. Some may cerebrate of, its a remake of Bollywood movie "Golmaal" and Chandravamsham as the script is familiar to the story line. However director Srivas managed that with integrating some incipient elements of action, romance, comedy in this multi starred commercial family entertainer. A customary story line with good narration and regaling elements for the audience to spend time of two and half hours without feeling boredom. A consummate family entertainer and a good treat for Manchu fans and audience who relishes regalement as quotient. "

"The Manchu family has come together for the romantic comedy entertainer 'Pandavulu Pandavulu Thummedha'. Bollywood actress Raveen Tandon is making a return to the Telugu screen after a long time. With a talented director like Srivas at the helm, this star studded movie has created a good buzz before release. Dr. Mohan Babu is an accomplished actor with great dialogue delivery. He uses both attributes to great effect in this movie. While his performance as Tourist guide Naidu is good, he really comes into his own in the second half, as Graha Raja. Vishnu and Manoj have done well in the roles allotted to them. Manoj has good comedy timing and his performance is a big highlight for this movie. Hansika and Praneetha add the required glamour quotient. Raveena Tandon still has the good looks and she will be a perfect fit for roles that require a certain maturity. Brahmanandam entertains in the second half of the movie as Bapure. Vennela Kishore, Raghu Babu, Mukesh Rushi and Telangana Sakunthala have brief roles, but they have done a good job. The second half of the film has good entertainment levels. The interval block has been conceived well, with the right amount of emotions. "

First half of the film is good. Second half has some nice entertaining moments. Plus points of the film are main leads, screenplay in second half and the lady get-up of Manoj Manchu. Pandavulu Pandavulu Thummeda is a kind of film that caters to everybody. With entertainment as it's strength in the second half, the prospects of Pandavulu Pandavulu are good at box office. Dialogues written by Diamond Ratna are partly good. Music scored by Achu and Bappa Lahari is okay. Chinna has effectively used a few nice old songs in background music to help the situations. Cinematography by Palani Kumar is fine. Some of the action sequences composed by Manoj himself are good. Editing is alright.
