Top 10 Telugu Movies in 2011!!

Here are my facebook two line reviews of the Top 10 among the telugu movies I have seen in 2011. (i.e. most of the big ones)

10. Pilla Jamindar: Another promising movie from Nani. Decent film with a fresh backdrop and refreshingly good casting.

9. 100% Love: Good Music. Fun concept. Easy on eyes and ears. Bonus marks for visualization of the first song. Too much drama towards the end prevents it from ranking further up.

8. Gaganam: Well made concept movie. But shot like a drama with minimal budget. Could have been more effective thriller with fast cutting and grander visuals.

7. Panjaa: Refreshing change from the recent big star movies where the hero is hyped up with stupid dialogue and ridiculous 'thread supported' fights. Liked it for the most part.. Good performance by Sesh Guy and loved the ramp up to the interval.. decent second part effected by very long action sequence at the end.

6. Golkonda High School: Regular underdog sports format movie seen many times over in Hollywood and in the famous Lagaan. But still a good effort worth commending.

5. LBW: New age Telugu movie... All New cast. Well made. Recommended!!

4. Ala Modalaindi: Good romantic comedy with good music. Regular story packaged in a new way. 

3. Seema Tapakay: Deceptively looks and sounds like any regular Allari Naresh fare. But a much better and funnier film. Songs were richly picturised enhanced by heroine's dancing skills. 

2. Rangam: How many times do you get to watch a decent political thriller in Telugu? Must watch!!! Awesome locales in the songs though.

1. Dookudu: Blockbuster. Never a dull moment. This is the 'Full Meals' every director promises while making a movie with the super stars. Delivered exactly to the needs of the masses. 

Special marks for efforts: 

7th Sense: 'A' for intention and effort, 'B' for execution. Worth Watch!! Shockingly, Legend of a South Indian monk being the patron saint of Shaolin seems to be true... got to read more abt it!!

Ananganga Oka Dheerudu: New Age Vitalacharya Movie with good special effects. Could've been a more racy adventure for its short duration (2 Hrs Only)!!
