    Its the same excitement that bring to every tollywood movie guy when they have watched a film in full 'Color' during the times of 'black and white' cinematography.

    Usually most of the 'Tollywood' films has typically a nice formulae. Start with a fight, a song, chase the villains, two more fights, 10 jokes, fight in climax and END. But This film is completely different. A film that could set standards to the upcoming ones. A completely different road that has been put up this film. And this might be the one of the best films in Tollywood that makes you to be in the script till the end.

    This not like other movies which defines the laws of the physics. And every other director who are using the usual formulae should see this and try to change the way how it has been taken up by Mr Sukumar.

    Its awesome. Its a huge leap for tollywood. Excellent cinematography, excellent script (thou it has loosened a bit in the middle) excellent direction, Most stunning background music and good crew. I must also appreciate the Background Music. Mr Devi Sri Prasad has really done an excellent experiment with tuning the same music tone and using it for the different versions. So, when you come out of the theatre, you can still hear the same music. This is awesome.

    And to understand it you must put your complete concentration on the movie. If some body tells you that this is crap them it means that they haven't seen movies like Dark Knight/Inception/Breaking Bad which give the nostalgia in the end.

    Proud to write a review about a movie like this.

    Credit for this movie first goes to Director Sukumar for perfect execution of Story which he want to portray. Secondly Mahesh Babu showed his guts in accepting this movie.

    For the First Time, A Telugu movie viewer Tasted a Hollywood range movie in Telugu Film Industry. The Film from Tip to Bottom portrays an extraordinary Thriller gripping the audience.

    Without any unwanted Comedy sequences, Film mainly concentrates on the Story line. Title 1 Nenokkadine Justifies with only Gowtham's Quest to find his identity.

    Though the common audience confuses with Kriti Sanon character in the first half, Director handled that confusion very Handily before Interval.

    Screenplay was Extraordinary. Background Music by Devi Sri Prasad gave a new life to the movie, though the songs are misplaced. Cinematography is the main Asset for the movie, it made the film a visual Grandeur.

    Mahesh Babu looks Very Handsome in the movie.

    Some People may need a second watch to understand the complexity in the script. Hollywood Movie Buffs will like the movie a lot.

    Overall A Welcoming Change to Telugu Film Industry.

    I Rate 9 out of 10 (HIT)

    i hope it is the best experimental movies of TFI with a high technical standards and with a critical script.though it was an inspiration from movie Bourne ultimatum,it has its own plot and not a copy.the story is all about a rock star(Mahesh Babu) suffering from a psychological problem who lost there parents in childhood.he believes that,someone killed his parents and they are even trying to kill him too.due to his psychological problem he hallucinates that they are killing him and finally he kills them.but people got to know that he was suffering with some psychological disorder stops believing him.he just want to get out of this,so he get away from media and people.but the heroine,a journalist(Kriti Sanon) follows him to know about him.from then they experience true attacks on them.at the interval bang he got know that the people in his imagination are true and kills one of them.now he starts his journey to crack the hidden secrets in his past.in this journey he come across lot of people who have answers to his questions,but they die without answering.but finally, how he gets his past?should see on screen.

    About Performance,as a main lead Mahesh Babu live in his character and justified at best.in first half he is a confused guy.can't get what is real and what is imagination.at the interval bang his performance is at peaks and in second half,the character should show an intense pain about his parents and mystery behind there death,in this part Mahesh performance is mind-blowing.in the climax,when he got to know about his parents,the sentiment expressed by Mahesh is heart touching and no other can do so. Mahesh childhood roll is played by his son Gautam. he did his best.coming to female lead Kriti Sanon,even though its her first movie,she didn't look so.she did to her best and compete with Mahesh. she got chance to show herself by sharing maximum screen space with Mahesh.Nasser played a key roll in the movie need to watch on screen.

    About Technical Dept..Seriously,Cinematogry is awesome and DOP Rathnavalu is amazing.in some parts camera work played key role.VFX team and CG team are their best.

    Finally about Director B.Sukumar.he need a big applause for making a best experiment in TFI.the story and the twists in screen play was amazing and unexpected.to handle such a script is so tough and executing it on the screen needs lot of guts. the director was success full in it.gave perfect entrance and exits to all the characters in the story and gave reasons to their rolls,so we can't find any unwanted characters and unwanted scenes in the movie.he even made Mahesh to look so stylish he never before.he is perfect in designing Mahesh character without missing his heroism all over the movie.

    I concludes that,this is one among the best movies of Tollywood with a new sort of script and screenplay.and everyone should watch it.

    The story of the film looks very simple. But the screenplay is highly complex. There are various layers like revenge, a psychological disorder, eagerness to know about roots and corporate greed. There are a few amazing screenplay tricks in the movie. Director Sukumar added 20% more commercial appeal to what needed for a psychological thriller, but stayed with the theme of the film most of the times. The length of the film should have been taken care of and the screenplay should have been crisp and racy. There are certain issues with the film - heroine interaction in Goa episodes appear repetitive and there is no scope for songs in this kind of thriller. Sukumar has followed Hollywood style and orientation by narrating the film in a classy way. We do expect the death of villain as the final frame of a typical Telugu movie. But there is a lot to the story after the villain's death. I loved the way he connected the titles episode of the film to the climax and how parents faces are revealed. There is lot of detailing in the film and some people might need a second viewing to understand the nuances and innuendos in the movie.

    1 nenokkadine is a movie which has been making the headlines since the release of its first and second teasers. the director and other crew members were saying this will be a different movie and mahesh babu himself said that this will be one of his best films .

    coming to the movie , it starts with a song which has become quite popular by now in the youth(WHO R U) . the way the hero's condition was explained was not satisfying enough but mahesh carried the first half on his shoulders with some good acting and killer looks . he has become lean and fit , looks quite energetic in the movie. comedy is not very much part of the script but the inline comedy between the scenes was fair enough . the romance parts at the beach and other places was good.

    the interval was just superb with the twist included and mahesh was so very good in that scene .

    the second half picks up pace from where it left and this is where the audience gets to know the actual story of the film . the action scenes in the second half are breathtaking and every scene is a visual delight.

    mahesh babu was excellent in the film with his own style and looks in the movie

    kriti sanon - not a popular name till now but her acting skills are very good . A promising actress with nice looks .

    all the other casting members made their roles look good enough .

    positives -

    mahesh babu ( from dressing styles to acting ) the action sequences the screenplay the plot twists music and BGM by devi sri prasad

    negatives -

    less entertainment factor slow narration not much scope for a heroine in this movie

    overall one of the best film of mahesh babu and a different storyline altogether .

    a must watch if you are a movie lover and are quite bored of the regular mass masala movies in the Telugu film industry.

    hats off to mahesh babu for choosing such a different script .

    Talking about "1" , It's simply a one man show and the man who dared to make such a film with such a big star of TFI really needs to be applauded.Firstly talking about Mahesh Babu , who as usual , did a really good job in his new kinda character which he never ever essayed before in his career. Gautam Krishna , was cute and made his presence felt. When it come to the story line of the film which is so fragile that Sukumar moulded it into a solid massive 'ONE' with his talent of writing a highly gripping screenplay. Yes , I do admit that the screenplay and story is an inspiration from a 2002 Hollywood blockbuster "The Bourne Identity" , but don't label it to be a copy , no. In the first half , the director did miss a lot of logics and left many lose ends which remain untied , but the pacy and even more gripping second half makes you overlook all those small tweaks and flaws in the screenplay. The length of the second half was a little too long since the director had to incorporate the unwanted commercial elements , simply to attract masses , which should have been taken care about. The best scene of the whole film is the Interval scene. And when it comes to the tech department , the first man to get an applause is the DOP , 'Rathnavelu'. The best visuals were in "Sayonara" and "Your My Love" songs. The fight scenes were taken greatly , the DOP used different colours for different situations. The editor 'Karthika Srinivas' , 'Swamy Ra Ra' fame , did a really good job. Needs to be appreciated. Kriti Sanon was very glamorous and gorgeous and pulled off her character well, Dancing was good and was a nice pick against Mahesh. Overall , this "ONE" does have those so called "Hollywood Standards" and even has an ample dose of family sentiment. Bored of routine family drama or senseless mass flick , grab a ticket for "ONE" which leaves you with a good feeling when you leave the theatre. Really a 150 buck worth flick.

    ONE Movie Review

    Probably one of the most over-hyped, anticipated movie of the year 2014, and since it was the first big name in 2014, people expected a lot and the value of disappointment varies from person to person.

    Watching the trailer, one would expect it to be another of those typical, stereotyped Telugu movie with a super star(which i thought it would be) but trust me its different, although different doesn't translate into better or good but Sukumar has taken a totally different take- no comedy, no crowd-wowing punch lines, no chemistry, no physics defying stunts, no unnatural romantic songs, no cheesy stuff but a strong, deep, emotional story which a single director failed partially to deliver.

    The starting was usual, the kind of entry every tollywood actor would give but then starts the 'different' part of the movie and continued till the interval, it was so different that one would doubt one's own presence at that point of time. The director was unsuccessful in keeping the movie going in an orderly, non-boring fashion until he pulled back the audience with the interval twist.(If he hadn't done that, i would have left the theater)

    After the interval he keeps you in the movie, and makes you think, think a lot(which is not usual in 'Telugu' movies). At a point of time, you will come to a conclusion that the movie is over, but he still pulls out some more tricks. And the ending it was perfect, ended at point which will not make you say 'that's it?'

    Amazing performance by Mahesh, undoubtedly the best of his career so far.Brilliant cinematography, tollywood has really stepped it up and some really really cool dance moves combined with a twisty tale, its an unusual combination. This wont be a super-hit one, because its not a family-entertainer two, its not a mass entertainer either but, it attracts the people who want something new, something interesting, something 'out-of-the-box' and Sukumar has definitely started the trend.

    Huge respect to Sukumar, who has taken the risk of stepping out of the 'stereotype' and creating a new hope for 'better' Telugu movies.

    Well, my Rating: hmm.. it would be 8/10 for the new trend.

    I should say 1 nenokkadine is a kind of experiment in tollywood as we experience them very low especially from a star.The story is simple and the screenplay plays the magic role and it still needs to be tightened.The plot used to narrate it is quite unusual for telugu audience.Editing is average and music provides great strength.

    coming to performances mahesh babu who never fails as an actor is main strength of the movie.His look was a feast to his fans and his expressions in emotional scenes were top notch.kriti sanon played her part well.I should really appreciate director for choosing a different subject to provide audience a different experience in Hollywood style.But the main problem in the movie is it lacks sufficient suspense to hold the audience to their seat.The psychological problems of the main character creates problems for the common man to understand it.This movie is understood by each person in their own way.Some hate it to hell and some love to core

    Cinematography should be mentioned specially as it is heart of the movie.Stunts are good and twists make you stick to the story between some loose scenes.Overall it reaches high mark on Hollywood movie lovers and common telugu audience must see it in different way but not by routine telugu film formula

    Mahesh is differently seen in a serious and new look. The center of attraction of are the action scenes.Director Sukumar put in his best efforts to carve the movie a masterpiece. The movie narration is too good as there are many twists. Audience have to watch it on the screen and enjoy the thrill.Even this movie has proved as director's fantastic choice.DSP background score stands as a great barrier.Heroine Kritivsanon plays a glamorous role.Lack of comedy is the only minus point.Sukumar always does a kind of love stories but this is quite different from them. Even an anti fan cannot hate this movie.Reached the expectations,a must watch movie.........

    One. Nenokkadine!

    The only tollywood movie I have seen with a genuine story and a cocktail of action and art. Mahesh Babu's action once again marks his genius in the field of fine arts. The movie itself was a beautiful ride- a ride I had when watching movies like A beautiful mind, The borne series, Inception, etc. For all my stupid eccentric hypocritical and unfathomably dumb friends who didn't like/understand the movie, Grow up and watch with an open mind. I understand the plot takes a great deal of mental abilities to comprehend. If you fail to comprehend it, I suggest you take Omega-3 supplements. Thanks!

    I personally think "One" qualifies to be called the "Inception of tollywood".

    first of all I'm not a big fan of MAHESH BABU though i like him as a hard worker , I'm shocked after watching the movie ... its unbelievable awesome direction and screen play is fantastic , this is the best any director can do , really director SUKUMAR has done an intelligent and excellent job. the biggest negative for the film is , the Telugu people cant understand the film especially those who are not aware of English movies.this is the biggest drawback hope it gets profits in oversea at least.I kindly request those who want to watch this amazing flick, don't listen to the people who saw the film judge it by your self... this is one of the best film ever made in Telugu film industry

    a new film,class audience gonna love it.. but masses wont be able to connect to it. but epic film though. hats of @14reels @urstrulymahesh for giving us a great film. hats off. new concept.. really loved it. Telugu audience can never accept these kinda films,they always need the same routine story.If routine story,they say its routine,new story they say its complex ? really ? ""1"" if u c the film carefully,it can be understood very very easily :P.Dont go by the critics,looks like a conspiracy..don't know why the critics didn't like the film,its way beyond the routine telugu films,as of now,the report is its avg,but I say its a path breaking film. ""1"" of its kind. Enjoy

    Excellent Screenplay with superb,mind blowing performance by SUPERSTAR Mahesh...

    Executed superbly by the Director...

    This movies rightly deserves 10/10 ...don't miss this film...

    Its equivalent to Inception or may be more...

    This movie is a trend setter for sure...

    Kriti was super in acting and she was a convincing enough for d role nd she is pretty hot...

    definitely we have to talk about the action sequences...extremely creative work by Peter Hains...

    nd last but not the least is Rathnavelu hats off to u! movie has been well captured...exotic background....simply awesome...

    one tries to be too ambiguous with the kind of plot it has and was true to the point that it submerges into the heads of the class audience having a good rapport with the Hollywood kind of stuff.coming to the movie the story is all about a rock star who experiences a psychological disorder and its all about chasing the mystery that he experiences from childhood. and all the story is about how he chases it and knows about his parents. Though, the story is simple on like what makes it different is the screenplay which was explored in a fashion never before in Indian film industry. The first half is though illogical in some senses all you an watch out for is the second where in you are all set in the mood by some exciting interval episode, and the movie though is slightly dragged its sukumars way of treatment its a perfect watch , it can be confusing but all in all the emotions leave out a wonderful feel. Its not for normal audience but a wonderful craft for movie lovers. Dsp bckrgrnd score is an asset and is dop.

    High Expectations..Mahesh On a Roll with continuous hits..Sukumar's styling and story line..yea will keep you high on expectations.!

    But, this movie is "once in a hundred year" thriller, with stunning stunts and mind-blowing twists that keep your brain active and make you think..

    A brave attempt combined with Mahesh performance , DSP music, Kirti Sanon beautiful camera friendly face, clever screenplay, intelligent cinematography is never before seen in a Telugu cinema.!

    Sukumar has done a decent job in placing the twists and turns at the right places and his emphasis on psychological elements is commendable.

    interval bang is mind-blowing and the ways in which the movie plays with your brain is a fantastic.!

    Don't expect anything and you wont be disappointed.! 1st half is nicely paced with required essentials..and songs are pretty good too. 2nd half is a bit slow and by the time you think its over..guess what? not yet!

    This flick is promising to infuse tad oxygen for those film goers suffocating with the many mindless menaces by premature directors. People might take it as an exaggeration if one says it's touched Hollywood standards, but actually it does. Eventually it promises a scintillating feel for those who watch it with faith in their own common sense. Yes common sense, or else you would be lost somewhere in the tricky screenplay. Its recommended for those who are ready for a U-turn from routine telugu films which often lacks both sense and substance. 1 is a perfect entertainer bereft of unwanted comedy tracks and item songs. Back ground music deserves a special mention, but not all the songs are catchy, cinematography has thrived to new heights, action sequences are par with any big ticket English film, Sukumar's taking is the biggest advantage.

    Only disadvantage is its length and a bit tricky screenplay but it can be contained when audience keep their faith in their common sense. It worth those bucks you exchange at the ticket window.

    The film is almost three hours long, which is another letdown. Because, who has that sort of patience to watch a film without comedy or entertainment. Wait aren't comedy and entertainment one and the same? Ideally, a film like '1′ has no place in our psyche because it doesn't pander to what we expect from films. So why was it made in first place, especially if people like you and me don't understand what the f*ck is going on? Questions like this are bound to bounce in your mind like a pinball, if you actually have the patience or care to think about the film long after you have watched it. Why? Why? Why? Like one knowledgeable person once said, "We get the films we deserve." And '1′, like most people will point out, isn't that sort of film. That's perhaps why it must be watched, analysed and judged based on its own merits. Not the sort of film you must keep on a balance, because the weight of our collective conscience will always tilt the fulcrum in favour of what we expect, but not what the film is trying to say.

    Incidentally, the film's fundamental theme applies to our perception about the film. It's good if you believe in it and it's one big fat lie if you refuse to be swept away by the narration. There's so much to like about the film, especially in terms of how Gautham's (Mahesh Babu) characterisation is portrayed. The beauty, and I'm speaking strictly in terms of writing, lies in its writing and how well director Sukumar sets up the story in the first place. Why does Gautham, a rockstar, live all by himself? Why doesn't he have any friends? He's bit of a loner throughout the film and he has a big problem trusting someone. Forget all that, he can't trust even his own instincts because he's told repeatedly that he has been hallucinating all his life – about his life, his past and his parents.

    To all those who crib that Tollywood movies are routine and lack variety and creativity. You should watch 1.

    Even in today's day and age when Tollywood regularly churns out the same mass masala routine flicks with tons of comedy(and surprisingly they are all BBs)1 comes as a breather :)

    First things 1st. My respect for Mahesh has increased by leaps and bounds for daringly choosing a film where the protagonist suffers from a psychological disorder :O Daring, why? cos Telugu movies are known for portraying heroes as nothing short of a superhero and a superstar playing such a role is never heard of. Did he do justice to the role? Oh boy, he did and how! To say he has given his best is an understatement.

    Secondly to the producers-Kudos to the producers who have believed in this story and vision of the director. In this day and age when numbers are everything, these producers have come forward to produce a movie which is highly risky as acceptance is not guaranteed.

    last but not the least-Director- Sukumar became my favorite director with this film. He not only attempts to break the mould with each film but also makes them with high technical values. He is definitely one of the best directors in Tollywood and thanks to him that we are seeing a movie like Nenokkadine on Telugu screen i.e, a movie with Hollywood standards.

    To sum it up, Nenokkadine is not your regular hero takes revenge or hero unites 2 families kinda story which I have been seeing for the past 20 years. It is a path breaking film and it makes me immensely proud to say that it is a Telugu Film.

    It is a combination of Sukumar's extraordinary and innovate writing and vision with Mahesh's awesomely powerful and memorable performance To me watching a movie like nenokkadine on Telugu screen in itself is a high

    Mahesh Babu's 1 has successfully broken all Telugu film conventions. The movie has a hollywoodish plot and is an engrossing psychological thriller. It keeps you glued the whole 170mins of its running time as you along with the main lead try to unknot the complex theme. Gautam is a successful rock star suffering from a psychological disorder which prompts him to create situations and characters out of the blue and is caught up in situations where he cannot distinguish reality from his make believe world. Situations take a turn when he surrenders himself to the police claiming to have murdered someone who has in fact murdered his (gautham's)parents. The female lead Kriti, a television reporter bails him out by proving to the world and to Gautham that he is in fact suffering from a psychological trauma. Gautham, does not believe this and disappears to investigate his past, followed by Kriti who along with him journeys into his nightmare, where reality meets Gautham's Surreal world and the audience has to wager what is real and what is not and is Kriti really with Gautham or is she also a figment of his imagination? If someone had told me that this plot was from a Telugu movie, I would never have believed it. The narration is flawless and it takes you on a path hitherto untrodden.

    Mahesh Babu should be really patted on the back for doing something so unconventional, wish the other main leads follow his path. His one liners are too good, evoke laughter even in the serious of situations. His expressions when trying to distinguish reality from fiction, is too good. Kriti, as the Female lead is hot, sexy and oh boy! She can even act. The best performance ever for an actress making a female debut. This is a role which established actresses would be envious of, at least in Telugu film industry circles. Her role is on par with the male lead and the story takes a new turn because of her character. She eerily resembles Twinkle Khanna in some angles. Kelly Dorjee, Pradeep Rawat and Nazir are the three people who haunt Gautham's nightmares, also give a commendable performance. Mahesh's son Gautham makes his debut as his younger version and has done a swell job. Devisri Prasad's music is different this time, it actually compliments the theme, With numbers like WHO AM I? and Aww Tuzo Mogh Kortha the music is good. Sukumar holds a winner. It takes lot of courage to make a film like this in Telugu, a movie which does not have a comedy track, a movie which does not have Ali, brahamandam or any other comedian and as if this was not sacrilegious enough, the movie does not have a climax fight. I hope this marks a new beginning for the Telugu Movie Industry, but you can never say, there are only a few people in the targeted audience who can actually understand a complex psychological thriller.

    This is the first movie, I am writing a review, I may not be good at this. So please apologise.

    I am from Tamilnadu. Though I watched many telugu movies, this is the first one I watched in theatre. It was a completely different story from what I had expected.

    Technically, the movie is brilliant. Unlike most of the action packed telugu movies, the first half doesn't end in a fight which I expected. Although, the fight was there, but the pre-interval scene is excellent. Kudos to the director Sukumar. He made the audiences guessing till the end. This is one of the best performances(even the best) from Mahesh Babu.

    Kriti Sanon does a good job in the film. But she doesn't have much scope in second half. Though the second half is bit dragging, the movie becomes pacy after the prison scene.

    I recommend every movie lovers should watch the film.

    The movie is first of its kind attempted in Telugu films.

    The basic plot is about a person who has some sort of mental disorder because of few things happened in his child hood.Owing to such health he fails to recognize the difference between his assumption and things happen in reality.

    Mahesh is a rock star suffering from a mental disorder due to which he loses grip over reality. However he's convinced his parents were murdered by three men and his only goal is revenge.

    Its a revenge drama with the mental disorder playing its role in this.

    Pro: Mahesh Babu,Action Sequences,Cinematography and Locations. cons:Screen time,editing. I agree I am not the right person to comment on this since I don't know anything about the movie making,excepting watching it. All in all if you are up for some thing different then you should watch.

    '1' movie is surely one of its kind. This is purely a directors film and the way his creative mind works reflects in all his films. I have been haunted by this movie for quite some time and this itself speaks about the effect the movie had in me. Mahesh is just awesome, the way he acted in some scenes is just out of the world. The best scenes according to me is the interval bang the climax scene.

    Hats off to Sukumar and Mahesh !! I feel this is the best film of Mahesh till date !! This film and his character in this movie will remain as one of his best accomplishments in his career The background music by DSP is terrific !!

    A perfect intelligent psychological thriller!! Mahesh babu's decision to accept a thriller, that's too with psychological issues is a daring one.The story of the film looks very simple. But the screenplay is highly complex.It creates the mood of thriller from the interval bang.1st half is a bit slow and takes its pace from the interval. I loved the way he connected the titles episode of the film to the climax and how parents faces are revealed.Some people might need viewing second time for better understanding.screenplay tricks are amazing in few scenes. it's gonna be a classic cult who are waiting for different genre movies like athadu,khaleja .Hail superstar_/_ for selecting this kind of movie!!
