What’s it about!
Seenu (Ram) is a youngster fascinated towards gangsters since childhood. He aims to become a gang leader. Local land mafia don Manikyam (Pradeep Rawat) inspires him. He first makes friendship with Ladda (A S Ravikumar Chowdhary), the chief aide of Manikyam and then earns the goodwill of Manikyam. Meanwhile, he also falls in love with Subbalakshmi (Isha). In a land case pertaining to Subbalakshmi’s friend, Seenu happens to be fitted against Manikyam. He becomes ‘hero’ then. An IPS officer (Prakash Raj) asks Seenu to disown from the gangster activities. How Seenu realizes the futility of the ‘heroic’ activities of a rowdy in the end is rest of the film.
Analysis
Director Sukumar’s highly anticipated, Jagadam, has superior technical values. As a technician he proves his worth again but it is a heartbreakingly disappointing film. It is high on gloss and low on substance. With his debut movie (Aarya), Sukumar proved his mettle as a technician. No doubt, Sukumar’s taking style is excellent. Jagadam boasts great music, carefully shot beautiful scenes, fine performances and rich production values. Where Sukumar falters this time is in the script department.
The story that he has chosen is hard to digest. Though his intention is good but the theme is not new one. Inspired by City of God, he makes this film about youth taking up as violence as means of living. But it is too documentary at times and lacks entertainment.
In Aarya, the hero’s characterization, music, screenplay and cinematography came in his hand. But in Jagadam, camerawork (by Ratnavelu) alone dominates and the rest of the drama is very futile.
The first half is okay but the post interval scenes are too heavy to digest for common audiences. It is evident that many scenes and words are chopped off by the Censors. Even the word 'Sania Mirza' in one song and 'Violence is Passion' is removed in the film that are available in audio albums.
The narrative mode of the first half an hour is straight lift from City of God.
What’s hot!
Camera work stands out. Ratnavelu’s work is extraordinary. In many sequences his work grabs the attention of the eye. As a director, Sukumar has shot some scenes too creatively. The action episode that happens soon after hero and heroine’s ‘first night’ in the early morning mist is shot so beautifully. Hero’s brother taking up gun and following scenes are masterstrokes. Devi Sri Prasad’s music is the main asset. All the songs are great. Two songs – Jagadam is Passion and 5 Ft 8 Inches are good on the screen.
Raam has agile body. He does the role so convincingly. He has grace in dance moments and also is best in action scenes. He is here to stay. But his small body is not that effective for the role. Pradeep Rawat as villain is good. A S Ravi Kumar Chowdhary has good body language to do a negative character. The kid does neat job.
Technically it is no doubt is on highest standards.
What’s not!
Lack of entertainment is the major problem. It is too serious. Heroine Isha is good on photographs but on screen she looks so awful. There is no novelty in the story. Many of the scenes and shots are oft repeated in many of the films. Even the theme and the structure are also seen in Sambhavami Yugey Yugey (which is poor copy of City of God) and Dhoolpet. Satya Prakash’s character, Ravi Kumar Chowdhary’s roles are no way connected main story.
Sukumar says violence is corporatised now and that is why youth are drawing towards violence. But the same was also said in Ram Gopal Varma’s Company. So where is the novelty?
Bottom-line
One can’t simply digest and associate with Jagadam however aesthetically shot. Sukumar, the talented director, has chosen wrong subject. His good intentions do not materialize on to the screen. A film should either enlighten or entertain. Jagadam does neither. The first half was promising but post interval, the film collapses. Too much fret and fury about nothing.

Sukumar's Jagadam Review
Jagadam Review! First on Net!
Katha:Andharu bhayapade Goonda ni chusthe kondhariki goppa ga anipisthundhi,vallante curiosity untundhi.Alanti Manikyam(Pradeep Rawat)ane Goonda ni chusi thanu kuda ala undali ani sarada padahadu Seenu(Ram).Oka gang ni prepare chesi Godavalu pettukunii time pass chesthu untadu.Manikyam right hand ayina Laddu anna(director A.S.Ravi Kumar Chowdary)ni parichayam chesukuni Manikyam ki daggara avuthadu.Manikyam manishi ga time pass chesthunna Seenu oka land settlement vishayam lo Manikyam tho godava padathadu. Manikyam ki poti ga dhandha modhalu pedathadu.Manikyam-Srinu gangs madhya jarige Jagadam is the remaining story.
Highlights:Arya tho manchi screenplay writer anipinchukunna Sukumar ki charecterisation, narration meedha unna command maro sari kanipisthundhi e cinema lo.Screenplay tho paatu technique ni perfect ga use chesukunnadu Sukumar.(Recent Telugu movies lo..Athadu tarwatha antha brilliant ga(can call it appropriately)technique ni use chesukunna cinema idhe).a Stylish flick from Sukumar.
Hero Ram allround talent ki tagina charecter dorikindhi Jagadam lo.Ram performance bagundhi.
Ratnavelu Cinematography Excellent.(DI ni proper ga use chesaru,there are no unnecessary tint changes)
Devi Sri Prasad Music(Songs&Rerecording),Srikar Prasad editing bagunnayi.
Sidelights:
Heroine charecter bagundhi kani ..Heroine Isha baledhu(Eppudo 1-2 sarlu bagundhi anukunta)
Second half lo kontha speed taggindhi.
Story writer's point of view lo pre climax,climax(showing the gray shade of Violence) correct e kavochu kani...aa moment lo philosophy konni sections of audience ki nachadhuu.But definitely not bad.
Hero is too young for that heavy charecter ane comments kuda vinipinchayi.
Violence ekkuve(don't go with kids)
Etc.., Etc..,
Is it City of God's freemake?..Not actually, but the central charecter(his fascination for Goons&the honour),technically to some extent Jagadam has shades of City of God.
Public Talk:Good movie,Worth watching
Industry talk:Hit to Superhit
