Kannappa Twitter reviews: Mukesh Kumar Singh’s Vishnu Manchu-starrer Kannappa hit screens on Friday. The devotional film, which boasts a large star cast, including Akshay Kumar, Prabhas, and Mohanlal, received mixed reviews. While people on X (formerly Twitter) seem to have liked the film’s second half, the VFX and the first half received criticism.

A good second half and performances

If the reviews on X are anything to go by, Kannappa has a second half that seems to have impressed many. One X user wrote, “Just watched #Kannappa. My Rating: 3.5/5. For the goosebump BGM in 2nd half – pure magic! #VishnuManchu’s performance shines, especially in emotional scenes. #Prabhas & #MohanBabu’s powerful presence takes it to another level. Half star for stunning visuals in the climax. 1st half is below average, slow & dull. 2nd half is a Super Blockbuster! Note: Must Watch for the epic 2nd half & performances!”

"Manchu Vishnu performed well and Mohan Babu garu and Mohanlal garu played decent roles. Prabhas scenes aythe vere. BGM and Devotion," another person said in a similar vein. "Prabhas dialogues ki theatre lo whistles vachchayi," one X user wrote in response to the Prabhas scenes. Vishnu delivered a very heartfelt performance, particularly in the second half, where the mythology and graphics really came together. (Prabhas' lines prompted people to whistle. Vishnu did a great job of expressing emotions, especially in the second half, and the mythology and images are excellent.)

Prabhas enhances a varied collection

However, not all reviews were as kind because one X user commented, "Interval - Avg." Very good topic, poor writing, great grade, peak performances...The romance scenes put patience to the test, and a 30-minute cut improves the first half. Although the scenario is manufactured, the overall quality is average. Lal sir presence."

"KannappaMovie – A mixed bag with some highs and lows," was the name of another. Positive aspects include the songs, Manchu Vishnu's work, Prabhas' episode, and some powerful scenes. Cons: Average editing, poor cinematography, fabricated CGI, costumes. Overall, a respectable one-time viewing. Rating: ⅖. Prabhas was a standout, according to another agreed, "From prabhas entry to end, movie peaks. But first half really bad. Overall average #kannappa."

Contrasting VFX with Adipurush

"#Kannappa - The Worst VFX /CGI since Adipurush in India! Barring #AkshayKumar and #Prabhas there is nothing that is worth watching for and I am surprised that with Good amount of budget, they did this BLUNDER," wrote one X user, comparing the VFX in Kannappa to that of Prabhas' Adipurush.

"Horrible sir.. vfx song lo scene lo fight lo asalu emotion undadu.. this is the story of Bhakta Kannappa but Bhakta undadu.. except Prabhas scenes movie motham worst.. asalu page page la dialogues with out emotion enduko artam kadu #Kannappa," said another, who also criticized the movie's VFX and overall quality. The VFX, music, and battles are devoid of feeling. This is the tale of Bhakta Kannappa, but there are no Bhakt. With the exception of Prabhas' scenes, it's the worst. The conversations go on for pages, but you don't feel the emotion.

Kannappa also stars Mohan Babu, R Sarathkumar, Arpit Ranka, Brahmanandam, Brahmaji, Siva Balaji, Kaushal Manda, Rahul Madhav, Devaraj, Mukesh Rishi, Raghu Babu, Preity Mukhundhan and Madhoo. It is based on the story of Kannappa, a devotee of Lord Shiva.
