RRR is abundant style with adequate substance. This extreme film oozes with flavor, but its drama is its foundation. The plot is sometimes illogical and redundant, but its heart makes that forgivable. Characters have clear motivations and internal conflicts, giving RRR moral complexity. Meanwhile, the storyline is nonlinear, packing in surprising twists and developments. Plus, RRR provides a purposeful message of unambiguous anti-imperialism. Furthermore, the acting nails comedy, tragedy, action, song, and dance. Collectively, this all establishes RRR as more than just excessive entertainment. Underneath its exaggerated presentation, RRR has sincerity and emotional intent.


Technically, RRR is a surreal whirlwind. The visuals use heightened framing, composition, motion, focus, color, and lighting. Despite its lengthy runtime, the editing is enjoyably energetic, utilizing jump cuts, match cuts, split cuts, and dissolves. The symbolic sound design employs echoes, volume, and motifs. The dramatic soundtrack overtakes RRR with showstopping musical numbers. There are era-specific production designs, extensive effects (CGI, stunts, and pyrotechnics), and a distinct directorial style. The tone may be confusing for American audiences, but RRR embraces its awesome ridiculousness. Due to enthusiastic filmmaking and genuine emotions, RRR elevates beyond novelty.
