Review

Story
Shankar (Ravi Teja) is a sincere and cranky cop. Raised as an orphan, Shankar is a married man with a kid. Katari (Samuthirakani) is a mobster in Ongole. He is assisted by his second wife Jayamma (Varalaxmi Sarath Kumar). A constable (Sudhakar Komakula) is murdered and Katari is the suspect. Rest of the story is all about how Shankar gathers evidence and hunts Katari.

Artists Performance
Ravi Teja looks very powerful as a cop. His dialogue delivery and fierce body language works really well for the character. He is at ease in the film. Shruti Haasan plays her character naturally. Samuthirakani gets another impressive role after Ala Vaikunthapuramlo. He is excellent in the role of Katari. P Ravi Shankar has done a baddie character who turns into entertainer towards the climax. Director’s son Satvik Malineni did the role of the hero's son. He is pretty good. Director/Writer BVS Ravi plays a cameo as gossipmonger and he is good. Saptagiri is entertaining though he has a couple of scenes. Director turned actor Devi Prasad is good in a notable role. Ashrita Vemuganti is seen in an interesting character and she is apt. Apsararani sizzled in a mass item song. You can see the entire Jabardasth gang and many notable faces cast for several characters in the film.

Technical departments

Story - screenplay - direction: Story of the film has nothing new to offer. Screenplay is interesting. You can see one flashback in another flashback several times. Screenplay of three objects (nail, fruit and note) worked well. Director Gopichand Malineni definitely knows the pulse of masses and made sure that the scenes between the hero and the villain are electrifying. He has also shown Ravi Teja in a new way though the characterization is an old one. The director has also made sure that there are many mass elements (especially fights) in the film.

Other departments: Songs scored by SS Thaman are okay. Bhoom Baddal song is good on the screen. However, Background music entertains the masses a lot. Cinematography by GK Vishnu is alright. Dialogues written by Sai Madhav Burra are very good. Editing by Naveen Nooli is good. Fights by Ram Lakshman deserve a special mention. All fights are composed in such a way that masses would love it. Production design is decent. Production values are good.

Analysis: Ravi Teja has done cop roles in a few films and it's a serious character. Doing a mass film with such a character is a risky proposition. But, the director Gopichand made sure that you see highly energetic Ravi Teja. Ravi Teja's character clicks even if it doesn't have Ravi Teja’s trademark satirical dialogues. Plus points of the film are Ravi Teja, screenplay, confrontational scenes between the hero and the villain, background music and action sequences. On the flipside, the mass orientation in the film is routine. But it looks good because we are watching a mass film on a big screen after a huge gap. On a whole, Krack is a paisa vasool entertainer for the masses.
