Top Reviewers:
TELUGU360 (Rating: 2.5/5):
“Game Changer” is a film with above-average content, and its success largely depends on the performances of other festival films. Charan’s presence and the grandeur of the production save this film to an extent. Shankar has crafted a relatively better second half compared to the first. The highlight of the film is the post-interval thirty minutes, where Charan delivers a standout performance as ‘Appanna’. “Game Changer” lacks the elements that would truly make it a game-changer.
CINE JOSH (Rating: 2.5/5):
Bottom line: Despite Ram Charan’s fine performance and the lavish visual aesthetics, “Game Changer” suffers from clichéd script writing and weak narration by Shankar, ending up as a regular political actioner. Shankar’s ideas lack contemporary feel.
MIRCHI9 (Rating: 3.25/5):
Overall, Game Changer is a power-packed political drama with strong characters. To experience the performances of Ram Charan, SJ Suryah, Anjali, and Srikanth, this movie is best enjoyed in theaters, especially during the festive Sankranti season, offering a full-meal experience for mega fans.
123TELUGU.COM (Rating: 3/5):
On the whole, Game Changer is a decent political drama that benefits from stellar performances. Ram Charan excels in both roles, while SJ Suryah matches his intensity with a compelling performance. Their confrontations are a highlight of the film. However, the lack of emotional depth in the second half and a few unnecessary scenes diminish the overall impact. Despite these shortcomings, the film is watchable, especially for fans of political dramas.
Times Of India (Rating: 3/5):
Overall, Game Changer is a well-executed commercial film. Shankar’s grand scale and Ram Charan’s brilliant performance, combined with strong supporting roles and technical excellence, make it a compelling watch for enthusiasts of the genre.
