 We did it It's I'm Corbin. I'm Rick and you follow us on Instagram and Twitter. I love June sick on The high-five all We're in a chipper mood, you know, you know, you realize why we wanted to see it in Tolugu. Yeah So like we obviously this is you've seen the title. We are reviewing you say the title because I can't see the whole title Sierra Narasimha ready. Yes, I can't see that middle. Yeah, I think it's Narasimha. Yeah, you heard it say So it's came out a couple days ago. Yeah last week last week Thursday We saw a war which came out a day earlier. Yes And so people got upset and saying we didn't we were watching that instead of this and or even instead of Joker Yes, it just happened to be released here in LA before those other so We finally got to it. I'm sorry. It took a little while and this was released in Tolugu and Hindi We could have seen it in Hindi. We didn't want to we wanted to see it in Tolugu It's a original language. Yes, so and there was only like one showing a day. Yeah at theaters in Guam We're we're in LA. So there's very few we went to a theater We've never been to before to see it in Tolugu, but yes, we finally saw it Go ahead. It is a historical action epic inspired by the life of We love a Narasimha ready who revolted against the atrocities of the East India Company ten years before the Sepoy mutiny That's cool. Yeah, it's directed by surrender ready and I think he Yeah, he was part of the writers and then a team of writers And then obviously starring I can't say I think it's Chirin Jeevi. Chirin Jeevi the legend. I can't say it. I'm gonna attempt and then a small part some Takpok John and The couple of the two main females. I believe one is this one place. Watch me. Yes was uh, I Believe it's pronounced Tom and Abathia and then she was in Bahubali. He was in Bahubali Yes, and then as was there were lots of faces from Bahubali in this that we recognized Who was this the other one the mother? No, not her. She she played The other yeah, the other woman. Yeah, we're gonna give a non-spoiler than a spoil Yeah, we'll do a little small non-spoiler view and then we'll get but I believe the woman who plays his mother in this plays Bahubali's mother. Oh, I think so. Yeah, it could be yeah And then we recognized the guy like his buddy very similar in terms of how epic it was In terms of Bahubali, but better because one obviously they have better technology now and they probably had more funding honestly Yeah, yeah, that's my understanding as well speaking of funding is that big B just did this to do it He like did it for free. Yeah as our understanding. Yeah, he got a big. Thank you in the right at the beginning Yeah, big thing. Thank you to mr. On-the-top box challenge picture on it. It kind of got you if he joins you. Yeah It's a movie for free. Yeah, so this is a and it's inspired obviously by the yeah True story of a story I mean I knew obviously there's a tons of these stories about the British and India and so You know probably a thousands of these kinds of stories, right, but this is an Epic film. That's just that's the word for it and it's it's beautiful Mm-hmm. It's So like well done. It's very stylistic sometimes as stylistic as like a 300 not comparing it to 300 It's nothing like 300 but certain times they do have that same stylistic vibe But most of the time it's it's very stylistic, but very almost I can't put my word Can't even tell you can't even talk exactly of like how like Pretty it was and it's like an expanse. It was a massive production massive massive massive Massive production. Yeah, like at every level and this is our second to Luka film. I believe I think so after Baba Bali Yeah, correct. I think that is correct because the KGF was Something of the K. Canada. Is it Canada? It's Canada. Yeah, okay But I think everybody in this would just start with the non-spoiler stuff And then we'll get into spoilers because that's I think what we enjoy talking about more this main guy I believed him as the totally God-like Hero yeah in this and you know what they did in this They they made him epic in the way, I mean the most most Close example we have of Indian film would be Baba Bali. They made him epic, but they didn't exaggerate him like war is Ridiculous. Yeah, like the way they over exaggerated Rithik's entrance. Yeah, it's like Just laughable ridiculous look the most because they got to that is every single time he Did it right? Like he was hilarious pretty awesome. I love that. But yeah, I totally believe the guy in the role and then obviously all the Honestly, it's not just legends. Yeah, not just in India, but in just cinema in general. These are some of the prettiest Choreographed war scenes. I've ever seen I agree. We were sitting in there And I don't know how many times during the film. I'm sitting here watching it And there was there was like one other guy in there with us Yeah, and I remember sitting and thinking we're sitting here in the quote-unquote entertainment capital of the world we're in Hollywood and Millions of people around us right now don't have the foggiest idea this level of Capacity and filmmaking is coming out of India, let alone a non-bollywood film. Yeah, they have no and a year ago We were in that group. Oh, yeah, there are people sitting in the movie theaters watching films that we had no Clue were being made that were at the level that they're at. Yeah Yeah, so yeah, this is definitely one of those that you need to go see in theaters on a big screen with a bunch of people I wish we got to see this with a bunch of I know with a big screen and big sound I mean if a movie was made for big screen and big sound, it's this movie. Yeah, this it had a battle almost every I mean any minutes a long film in every 20 minutes. There was another battle There was either an epic battle or an epic dance number. Yeah Two dance numbers were amazing quite enjoyable. I people asked us to react to about I didn't they were T-Series So it's just one of those things that it can do. It's probably gonna get blocked or copyright right But I'm glad we didn't because it was kind of really enjoyable to see this to very well The first one was completely and utterly just massive on the epically mass like a parade almost the costuming the number of people The makeup the music the choreography. It was off the freaking charts Then it will get into spoilers, but I was definitely say go see this on the stunt work. Yeah Yeah, definitely go see this film and a huge ratchet up with the CGI I mean there was some there were some there were some spots you're like, okay. Oh, yeah, but Way way above where they I mean they've come such a long way in a short period of time Yeah, and for spending probably a fraction of what you spend here in order to yeah that kind of stuff Obviously, so that's what we noticed. So definitely go see that we're gonna start talking spoilers If you haven't seen it yet see it come back. I'm sure a lot of you Most of this is gonna be spoiler talk. Yeah, but yeah, this this film We could to talk about the kind of just the bad it almost starts off because when they Especially when they start to introduce him because they start you off in the present and there's that warrior Queen right thing. Yes, which I don't know what you little side note Can we talk about how epic and awesome the women are in this movie? Yeah, and the first battle sequence I recall ever seeing where the women are fighting alongside the men. Yeah, that final Battle sequence when the women are just kicking butt. Yeah, that was awesome. That was great There's multiple times in this where we out loud. We're like, yeah Yeah, the the stylistic of this film is beautiful But also they they took it up a notch in certain places that other like films kind of didn't or the CGI It was there wasn't as good. Yeah, like because they they showed some injuries in this thing Oh, man. Yeah, there was some epic sword throw shots. There were some epic bone-showing shots. Oh, oh, man Coming up in the, you know slice of people's faces and and the martial arts they put in in all this choreography The fight choreography and the fight stunt work from what I believe he did most of his own stunts That's my understanding too. He's 60. That's These were crazy tag life goals. These were crazy stunts hashtag life goals, man Now it was it's such a fun film to watch that like It's not like I wouldn't Take somebody who's never seen any film immediately to see this, but I think they would appreciate a lot of this I do too. I just wouldn't take it right away because right it has a lot of cultural stuff in it Yeah, so that's that's the only thing but I think there's a Since what 75% of this is action scenes. Yeah, I appreciate Every single one of those absolutely every single one of them is Amazing. Yeah, absolutely. They could and I think they could also appreciate whereas in Remember we watched two different films that they came out at the same time in war We're like, please don't give us the love story. Get get that out of here. You're wasting our time Yeah, I didn't feel the way with this I felt like it was germane to the storytelling to have his love for Lakshmi and his wife and Somewhat by Ramastani, but not you know of the two women who love him I actually wanted a little more of that. I want right. I wanted them to delve a little I know I understand they couldn't because obviously it's already a long film. Yeah And they got to get all those battle sequences in there cuz yeah, man, there's a ton of them But my biggest gripe with the film and I think it's yours too is I don't know if it's the version You got but the version we got which we made sure we saw it in Tolugu They dubbed over the white people the white all the Brits speak in English They dubbed it with some other person doing our work in Tolugu All right, and we were really wishing we could have heard them speaking in English because we were especially the main dude That we are certain is related to Christian bad Yeah, the first main Brit like that has the long hair and a lot of denticles Sometimes who gets his head cut off and looking great. Yeah Well, like I wish we could hear him because he actually looks like he's not doing this could have been our favorite white Dude, yeah Indian film. Yeah. I lost it because it was overdubbed with some guy in Tolugu I don't understand why they did it like I Let people speak in their language. Yeah, they don't care if it's Indian I like Chinese subs keep the subs in the language of the audience watching it And then whatever other languages are being spoken just let them speak in their languages Yeah, so if they were speaking English put Tolugu subs if you want to sure Yeah, so that the people speaking Tolugu would be able to know what the English people are saying because it ruins Performances when they're totally you like that's why we didn't want to see the film in Hindi I'm exactly wanted to see it in its original language. Did you find yourself looking at his lips? Yes to see what he was actually saying at the time the words were coming up because I didn't want this the overdubs Yeah, and then actually what the English speaking people were doing a good job Yeah, he looked like he was like almost all of them. I mean the Russell Crow guy at the end was probably my least favorite of the white people The Russell Crow guy the bearded bearded beard. Yeah, he's okay He looked like a cross between Russell Crow and then the other actor who was in Pirates and represented the East India Oh, yeah, yeah, you know I'm talking about. Yeah, he's good. Um, but anyway, but That was probably biggest gripe with this is that I'm like right like I have a couple of my biggest one is that's the biggest It's like he was looking like he was a great villain I know he looked like he did a great job And I got lost for anybody who doesn't speak to lugu or hindi when they see the hindi version You don't think his performance gets lost because you don't hear him speaking and doing his work like Why hire the actor to give the performance if you're just gonna have something Yeah, I don't get it. I don't get it like in any language. It's not just for English Yeah, people I like if it's if he's speaking hindi, let him speak hindi Yeah, don't over dub it, right? If you speak it to lugu, don't over dub it. Let them speak the language like because that's the performance that we're looking for Yeah, the other thing has nothing to do with this film and has to do with the censorship board in India for films Oh, yeah, every freaking time somebody gets a cigar out or has a drink There's nothing that'll pull you away from suspension of disbelief and make you stop thinking You're in the time frame that the story's telling then you're watching them around a fire And someone gets a cigar out and down on the bottom comes this giant stamp smoking is injurious to your health every single time we get it it's not this film so we're not gonna gripe on it, but Obviously, we have I have a big problem with censorship in general But like it's just it's it's annoying and it takes up space on the screen and it distracts you It even went over the the the freaking subtitles. I did once again, not the film's fault. That's a film's fault We get it. Oh, it's the it's in so what other great whatever little right? No, it's just a the other than that it was the little things like the Like the some CGI spots, but it's a tiny little CGI Nothing the rest of it is so gloriously well done. I and I got that in a lot of way unlike war I wanted them to actually delve and maybe cut one of the Battle scenes to just delve into because like it was almost like okay He's married and then you had a great scene, but then there's like 10 scenes later They're like, oh, yeah, she's still here, right because I wanted them to feel a little more Yeah, I wanted to feel their relationship. This film fills even non-Indians with lots of pride And I can't imagine how Indians felt that's what we walked like said at the end I was like, I can't imagine how Indians felt watching this would be a matter of pride Yeah, because I there were a couple of times I got emotional like I did the tears didn't come down the cheeks But I found myself getting emotional I got emotional in his final speech and if and when his mother comes and she's capturing the blood in the She did a great job great job and I turned to court at one point and I I said it was during the fight sequence where he is Going to go get the Christian Bale Brit guy and I turned to court and said It must feel cathartic and wonderful for Indians to watch this and see Indians Kicking I didn't say crap the crap out of Brits And to see like the British flag on fire and just these battle sequences There has got to be this cathartic sense that's rooted in the history of India of Heck yeah We have you have something to be proud of man that We kicked The colonizers out. Yeah, and that the death of every Indian for our motherland was not in vain because they're out Uh, it's it's just this movie has got to fill Indians with us just in the in the same way that what's what's a comparable film like Uh, I guess saving private Ryan. Yeah any any any American film that touches on the our nation and where we've like a Harbor over coming in haps, but it's any country that you're overcoming and you're filled with patriotism patriotism Yeah, and all that kind of stuff, but this is even for non Indians. Yeah You you you felt it you felt it a lot in this film and you felt the pride of Of the Indians that they feel for India and the pride they feel for their people Yeah, and I think this is one of the best like almost villains we've seen in indy in any, uh, I wish like we said I wish they weren't dubbed over because I feel like it could have been even more powerful Yeah, but like they like the villains in this really brought out the the amount of prod like the Opposition yeah, you need it and I only had I want to talk more about some great stuff like the score and the sound Editing and the sound mixing the the only other little gripe I had which is what I have with a lot of the longer films and some of the stuff that we haven't seen a lot But like Bahubali had this issue where especially at the beginning of the film rather than show us They tell us yeah, so you'll see two people standing on the battlements and the enemies there and they'll say to each other They've been there ever since the revolt in 10 years ago I know when captain so-and-so did this and that and yes and all the people who gave their lives It's like they did that once or twice. They only did it once or twice. Yeah, it wasn't a lot thankfully thankfully when that happens I always I go, oh, please stop Yeah, we're not morons exactly, but The the the score yeah the score was throughout really really good It helped to the with the the emotion and the sound editing and mixing the matching of sound and visual effects was As good as anything we've seen come out of india And I thought this had a lot of really good twists and turns as well Except maybe yeah that I just I didn't expect certain people dying a lot of people died Obviously, this is the spoiler part a lot of people died right and a lot of people Didn't die like main characters and then died. Yeah a lot of main characters die Which you don't see a lot that I did like so far in indian cinema like you don't see the heroes die a lot Yeah, uh and the actress forgive me for not knowing her name off the top of my head plays Lakshmi who was from Bahubali Huge growth for me. Oh, yeah watching her do her work compared to Bahubali. Yep, uh in in this I felt like she was I felt Pretty much everybody was going. Yeah, I didn't see there was there was very few times that like the only other times I would see thing it was a small extra Yeah, no all the main leads were really loud supporting guys supporting people like the guy with the beard that He buffed up and then I ride it as they said we're not gonna help you and then he was like we'll help you Yeah, yeah, he did really really well Yeah, uh and so like it was only tiny little parts that but most obviously Bach on right when he came on the screen man I was like this dude. He is so much present all the energy in the room just goes to big b. It's just He has so much presence. He does like and it's he's he's effortless with like he's like. Yeah, I'm big b. Yeah I don't have to try He would make a great Salomon. Oh, yeah, he would Yeah, he would make a great. So epic salomon Yeah, uh anyway this I mean as far as the movies you were gonna see this week that were released There's just no question This is this is a giant epic film that you need to see on the big screen War you never even need to see Yeah war is something that if you have nothing else to do and you wanted to go have fun and just laugh your butt off And enjoy great stunt work. Yeah go see war but action compared to the two. It's like yeah, there is no comparison Yeah, yeah, I would definitely go see this again, especially over war. Oh, we can hands down Yeah, this is this is from for the epics and we haven't seen a lot obviously Yeah, we have we still have a lot to see But what immediately comes in my mind when I think about the the epic stories that we've seen we're Padma bot and by Jerome Stani this goes away at the top of the list for me Well in terms of definitely action this definitely has more action than all of those Yeah, and it kept me. I mean, this is a weird statement when I'm about to say It felt really long. Yeah, but I stayed engaged. Yeah, you know, I I wasn't I wasn't at moments looking at my clock going This is gonna end. Yeah, it just it felt long and I was like, okay, it's long good In fact, I think they turned you one point and went second intermission It felt like felt like we were gonna get a second intermission. Yeah, I don't think they do that But and extremely for that little gripe I had about the script, you know telling you something at the beginning I thought The script and the pacing of the film and the way they took you Through the story and all the way to the end. I thought was exceptional. Yeah, I thought was really good Yeah, I enjoyed I very few issues with this film biggest one being this the the dubbing And I don't know if that's what you got as well If that's just what they gave us here and they also had typos on some of the captions. Yeah, some Some of the freight really don't care about americans. Like it's the word because was spelled B B E C U A S E. I'm like, okay Somebody somebody rushed the subtitles to get this out. They were they needed to release it at midnight in 1153 They're still typing in the subtitles. I actually wanted to look up that white boy Yeah, the guy who looks like christian bail. Yeah, what was his name? No idea His character name was jackson. It was jackson. Uh-huh colonel jackson general jackson Or was it Watson? No, it was jackson He sees the jackson immortal Oscar scutterberg. Yep, that's him Yeah, it's so many times in different angles. He looked so much like christian bail real humans Uh, he's from stockholm. Ah, so he's the swedish actor. Yeah So he's done He uh, go back up. He's relatively new Where are you? Where's this around when you did uh, that's a film. So the tv series tv shows I can't see anything from america No, there's a there's a the reason I was looking at some of his tv credits is because there's a really popular show in Denmark that one of the actresses from westworld is on I wanted to see if you work with her Well, man, you did it. I think you did a great job. You did a good job too. I can't say for sure Yeah, because they dubbed you but you looked like you were intense and you were in it So great job. Yeah to you, sir. And great job to the legend. Yeah, obviously He was the whole time. He was completely believable captivating Uh, believed his emotional state he was in and good for you for doing all your own stunts That it went 60 60 fricking years old, man. Yeah And he had he had just some some legit those were those were like mma almost like style. Yeah, it's like it's like hey Tom cruise talked to me in a decade Hold my yeah, look at tom cruise doing mission impossible. He shouts out and says hold my beer Hold my child. Hold my child I'll show you what I'll show you a real stunt work. Yeah, so I would definitely recommend this Obviously since you're here you've already seen it. I would hope Yeah, this is going to be one of the ones that would be at the top of my list and I agree with you I think people I was really happy. There were two things we spotted that we've just learned this week One of them was during the big musical number. We thought we saw a gory Yeah Who were with the ash on them and then another thing from the that festival on the last day of durgapuja People climbing the bulls. Well, there was people climbing the poles and then there was oh, no It was in the akshay kumar trailer when he's got them the ten heads We're like, hey, I think we don't want that cultural references. So we're getting excited about oh and We clearly a lot of like an american seeing this for the first time or just a non-indian Wouldn't pick up on the significance of it the very end when that guy When the guy the dad kills himself and falls at his feet and his hand hits his foot the significance of him seeking to bless and be blessed at that moment was We're learning thanks to you and then also the Girl who danced in front of them and then burned herself. Yeah, that was immediately brought to mind problem a lot very similar to that Whole ritual. Yes, if like their People die right they sacrifice themselves in a fire right rather than be disgraced and yeah, all that kind of stuff Yeah, that's good reminding me of that a lot. Yeah, so yeah I really enjoyed it definitely Definitely enjoyed it lived it up to the the epic trailers that yeah, it really did Uh, so, uh, let us know what you thought about that comment section should be
